Not if meant leaving Darlow in net for the next 21 games? Better off turning it down now and accepting £10m in January when you have a replacement lined up

The biggest danger for me is that the 49ers have been too indecisive. The Hamer bid could have gone in the day after Rutter's release clause was activated. The same can be said of all the targets tbh.

Not sure what the delay was and while we will hopefully get away with it and sign 3 players before tomorrow night, we are risking it.

Not gonna happen. Not sure why we are even discussing it. Ill be honest though what i have seen of Darlow doesn't impress me. Id rather move him on than Mes.

Id sell Mes if we went up but think hes fine for this league.

Wober most likely to leave i reckon out of anyone.

As far as Im aware there are no clauses in Gnontos contract meaning it would take a big offer for him to go.

Sky sports Gernany reporting we've signed Tanaka from Dusseldorf for 4 million.
A midfielder apparently
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I wonder if he's any better than Aaronson.

Wouldn't rock the boat - we have enough players now.

Ao Tanaka flying this morning for a medical. Leeds United hopeful of completing that one today. Also expecting movement on other business today in order to complete tomorrow. The hope is for three. Tanaka, full-back and another. No guarantees obviously.

Do you think we'll make a fortune from shirt sales like you thought we would from Ideguchi?

^^^

With those baguette wrists, there's a real
chance he'd snap his own hands off.

I'd like to think of a bit of a deadline day sensation sort of signing.. would be really nice for the fans,

keep saying it but why the transfer window open after the season kicked off is frustrating

If he stays and plays then possibly. Especially if we go up and he plays for us in the Prem.

There you go - at least I have the guts to answer when pulled up on something I said a few years back.

I get the feeling you would be blocked had you said something similar

It's kind of weird. Don't see the point.

I think the way some around here are we should sign 11 new first teamers!..

All better than we now have!..

And letting our now first teamers battle it out amongst themselves to see who warms the bench!..

Something like what Cellino tried doing!.

Germany do you think the team could make it through the season without some defensive additions? Ampadu back at CB I guess and who knows who will play lb or rb once those crocks get injured. It's a long season and we already have injuries.
Should have gone up last year because it going to be tough even with a supposedly weaker league.
I don't know maybe it's where we belong

I normally don't remember something you said yesterday, but the Ideguchi shirt sales claim was such a classic

Anybody know how to properly pronounce his name, I put 碧 into google translate which I lifted from Wiki and it didn't sound anything like the electrical appliance retailer.

I'm still wary of our owners and not 100% impressed with the way they operate leaving everything to the last minute is not my idea of a well run ship....okay they may have allayed my asset stripping concerns after so many star player exits and such deafening silence and no
evidence of any new incoming players until a week ago
but even with a little over 24hrs to go until the transfer
window closes we are scrambling around to get the
barest minimum of deals done to pad out our new
streamlined squad which must be one of the smallest in
numbers in the Championship.

I know Faith, Germany and a few others still believe in
these owners of ours and you are certainly very patient
men for not having the same worrying concerns and
feelings of distrust a lot of us on here shared, admittedly
I imagined the absolute very worst but their silent pee poor PR behaviour did that, but a week or so on, if we only
bring in AO, and a new left back and keep Gnonto I'll accept that as our lot plus the new players we already have but to my reckoning if that is our total business the owners are at least £70 million in profit allowing for all the financial restrictions but that's their perogative as owners, they aren't doing anything illegal but you'd of hoped they would be happy with say just a £50 million profit but there is still time for a marquee signing or two to make that scenario come true.

Anyway like the rest of us I shall be following events closely between now and tomorrow night when whoever
we have brought in or not the team Saturday are fired up
sufficiently to beat Hull City and keep spirits on here at
least, unusually positive.
