    Are these 2 x confirmed transfers today - really today or just stage managed PR for today?

    Just curious really.
    Doesn't matter
    Charming!

    There's ointment you can get for that.

    Genuinely can't believe we have left it this late into the window to get a striker considering what happened this time last year
    On the one hand I agree, but in the other we have May, Miles, Aneke, and Kanu, plus CBT, Campbell, and Campbell. Obviously one big problem with this squad is how they fit together, but I feel like we have a lot of attacking players. 
    Out of those only May, Kanu, Leaburn & Aneke are strikers. The last 2 aren't currently fit and if you are thinking of relying on Aneke to be a part of your matchday squad anytime soon then think again. 

    At 3pm tomorrow we currently have just 2 fit strikers......still. 
    True, but if we want to play 4-3-3 I think two fit up front is fine given that after the international break Miles will probably be ready to be in the squad. We shouldn't sign a player for one game especially given that any player signed at this point can't play tomorrow anyway. 

    Agree about Aneke, but he is still taking up space on the wage bill. 

    A League One team having five out and out strikers who can pretty much only play striker must be incredibly rare. Especially given the other attacking talent we have. 

    Yes, I hope we get another striker in that allows Kanu to go out in loan. But I also get that it's a lot of squad places and money on one position who we can play, at a max, two.

    I posted a few weeks ago that it’d be great if we signed a few players I’d actually heard of. 
    Then we signed May 👍. 
    It’s possible I’ve heard of Camara, I’m not sure. 
    If we signed Ladapo, then I really can’t complain. 
    Having said that, I hadn’t heard of Gallagher, Bielik or Cullen, although I had heard of, and remembered Lyle Taylor. 
    So once again with new signings, we just have to keep our fingers crossed, and hope they turn out well. Groundhog Day. 
    (Apologies for rambling).

  • I’m just off to the cinema to see a couple of films, I’m hoping that by the time I get out, we’ve signed a team of Watsons!

    Cawley said there had been little interest in DJ, so likely he'll be hanging around.
    Who was responsible for signing him in the first place and Kirk 
    Bowyer signed DJ. Adkins signed Kirk
    Did Bowyer sign DJ or did Martin Sandgaard?
    Doesn't strike me as a Bowyer type of player and he left for Birmingham a few weeks later.
  • So striker and CB needed before 11pm.

    DJ joined in January 2021. Martin joined the scouting team in January 2022.

    and I doubt Adkins had much say in Kirk's transfer as he was a target before he became manager

    Do we want to play 4-3-3? Has that come from somewhere

    Apparently both essentially done deals, Tedic and Abankwah.

    Tedic is a Stirker which is so disappointing as I was hoping we were after a central Striker 🙄

    Gallen because we panicked and Jon Fortune tipped them off about his release clause.

    CBT has been training at Sparrows Lane today


    Maybe someone can put names to these players for the people who don’t recognize them please.

    No one likes a smart ass. Very good though thanks
