I am finding Southall absolutely hilarious today. I feel like he's in his element, loving the busy-busy buzz and the positive attention he's getting from it being deadline day, and is also operating on very little sleep and so is a bit giddy. Stuff like this has the capacity to backfire if you make big promises and get nothing, but having alreday brought one player in I think he's just genuinely enjoying himself and is communicating with fans about the possibility of deals, which is a refreshing change from being told nothing and hearing 'undisclosed' whenever anything does happen.
Probably shouldn't give him any more sugar though.
It's great fun, though when he refers to a super dupa deal phone, it does raise expectations slightly as to who we're after. It'll be a bit of a damp squib is the super dupa deal phone delivers a 17 year old right back from Barnet!
Based on Matt's video this morning, I think our next signing will be somebody we've been talking about. Because Matt is offering two free tickets and I don't think he would make that gesture if there wasn't a genuine chance someone would guess
So do we think we will sign someone we haven't been rumoured with at all today?? Have to say really enjoying deadline day today for the first time in ages!!! 😂
He's coming across like a kid having fun, playing real life championship manager. Thats not a negative btw.
Lets see if it comes off. Fingers crossed
Said this to a mate earlier... Love it, and I'm very envious. If he does pull off the signings, I'm loving the twitter stuff. Actually excited about deadline day for once
Bloody hell, Matt Southall is playing a hell of a game on Twitter. He's not stupid. He knows that if he doesn't deliver, he's shafted his credibility within a month. But if he does deliver, he's just started a revolution in the fans' relationship with the club. I want more in, I massively need Taylor to stay, but I also badly want his Twitter strategy to pay off by midnight tonight. It'll be the mother of all New Dawns.
Thing is, people won't even be embarrassed by their behaviour and over reactions yesterday. Hopefully it's going to be a good day
And if it wasn't a good deadline day, people wouldnt even be embarrassed by 'burying heads in sand etc'. Nobody on this site wants us to fail, so let's just all hope for the best and see if we end up better than we started the month. Which we all agree is what we need.

Not happening... Darragh wants 10mill, another 2mill in add ons, plus him to be loaned back for the season
Lots of beds drying out...
Could be wrong though
100% no chance, but would love to be wrong.

Oh no, @AFKABartram is our next signing.
Underwhelmed.
