In fact, if the only business we do from here on is to lose Williams but sign Shinnie permanently I'd still say it's a good window and deadline day. But then I think Maddison and Bowyer should be forced to kiss and make up
Can see it now- Williams goes before a last minute bid for Chuks that we just couldn’t turn down and we’re left with less than we had at the start of the day. Proper Charlton.
I don't blame the skepticism, but I wonder what figure we'd even be tempted by for Chuks?
He's our biggest threat, we don't need to sell. Surely we wouldn't accept anything under 5 million? (Which nobody will ever offer)
Apologies when QPR come in with a late bid of like 14 million or something.

If QPR offered £14m for Aneke Id drive him there myself

Who should lean into the kiss first?
Maddison should go 51, Bowyer 49.
YES I think Maddison could be marginally more in the wrong.

This is the problem with trying to get proper permanent deals done in January. Even the lad Blackburn have signed won’t be leaving Crewe until the summer. It’s a month for sellers, always has been.
If you want perms in this window you have to massively overpay to get them.
I think it's a myth. For every Vidic, Evera, Saurez there is Carroll, Torres or a Chris Samba.
The difference is in January people expect the new signings to change their season round. Remember when Harry bought the whole spurs reserve team, and Dean, and kept Pompey up when they were dead and buried?
I'm not a fan of Bowyers infatuation with shuffling around the deckchairs, of which he seems to do on a weekly basis. But getting rid of deckchairs for those of the same or lesser quality makes no sense to me.
I've heard through a Cardiff mate Williams failed his medical. I'm not saying he did.
Hilarious if that’s the reason we couldn’t sign Kirk
If true I'd find it hilarious and bloody irritating. More proof that it is in fact the cap holding us back and not the available funds... for the first time in years that we've got money, but can't spend it.

If that's the reason it means a 40ish k over spend (1.5k of JW's wages over 5 months) less than 2% of the cap, if we were exactly on the limit. That's inside the tolerance of a small financial penalty, as a % of the over spend. If we had the "money was no object" approach even a fine of the full amount wouldn't be that off putting would it?

How poetic.
Strange.
