I have an irrational dislike of that woman but the Mrs thinks she's hilARIOUS. I have to leave the room and go to the shed to hammer nails into my eyeballs when she puts something she's in on the tellybox

Luckily, me and the Mrs are on the same page with our dislike for the unfunny Sasquatch.

Hoping Maitland-Niles doesn’t end up at WBA (decent and he’ll improve them playing centre midfield) and King doesn’t go to Fulham (him, Lookman and RLC could be very good but for those wages they’d be mad). Fear we’ll lose a few and Fulham/WBA will get close to us, pressure on then we get a big win after spurning many opportunities. Story of being an Albion fan!

Southampton look to have pulled off a major coup as they close in on a loan deal for Liverpool winger Takumi Minamino.
Disappointed not to see any of our youngsters going out on loan today (yes, I do know Molumby went weeks ago)..

Well he did end up going to WBA, at least Josh King went to Everton & not Fulham

So do we think Fulham or WBA did enough in the transfer window to see an improvement from them?

WBA definitely improved their squad but most likely too late to save them. Fulham did nothing.
BHA the biggest spenders . . . . Who'd a thunk it. Our loss appears to be comprabale to gate receipt losses, so all things considered not woeful, would love to see other clubs losses. clearly having a big effect on spending.

Very glad Fulham didn't get King.

Don't be too sure, they have a better chance of avoiding the drop than Fulham in my opinion.
Whatever you might say about him, Big Sam has a history of successful fire fighting, if they do go down l fancy it won't be my much.

You obviously weren't watching Jim Shite and 'Arry on SSN last night. After spending an age on Liverpool panic-buying a dude from Preston and getting another fella in on loan as the MAIN STORY, they moved onto their "friend" Big Sam. The two of them – Shite more so – seemed to be flabbergasted at how Allardyce had managed to get "FIVE" players in on deadline day. But then only mentioned AMN – I still don't know who the others were
Aside from that, some thoughts about Transfer Deadline Day, after I, for some unknown reason, decided to sit and watch it until after the window SLAMMED shut:
• Probably because this year it's covid-tastic, but the whole thing really is a busted flush. The reporters were nearly all in their front rooms, it looked so amateurish and yet they had to somehow make next to nothing happening sound exciting (see above with the WBA and Liverpool hype).
• One of the biggest dramas seemed to be around Joe Willock posting something on his Insta story about moving to Newcastle (A drum roll, I think), before deleting it. The guy in the North East was doing his best to make it sound like exciting, but then Shite and 'Arry carried on the conversation about it. I mean, what more needs to be said?
• Things were so bad, Shite couldn't even be bothered to don his yellow tie
• The new Liverpool CB from Preston is seemingly going to be in the England squad soon, according to 'Arry because "Liverpool don't make mistakes in the transfer market". Apart from Minamino, of course, who was shipped out to Southampton.
• One of the most interesting insights in the 'who's had a good window' chat was the fella explaining about Arsenal. I didn't realise, but they've basically shipped out a whole LOAD of players, saved a fortune, got that young kiddie in from Spain and Lil Maty Ryan. I'd laugh if they finished above Spuds now
• No mention of Chelsea – probably so that 'Arry wouldn't go off on one about them sacking his nephew.
• Not more than a passing mention of Ecuadorian Moises, certainly Shite and 'Arry weren't going to resort to talking about the business done by #TeamsLikeBrighton (apart from the other Albion, obvs – but then I guess Potter isn't one of their BFFs)
• Window closed at 11 with a shitty 10-second graphical countdown. What happens? Shite asked 'Arry about why/how he was late – I shit you not. (There were roadworks, he couldn't work the sat-nav, so had to call Peter Storrie, if you're a) interested and b) made it this far)
A few hours of my life that I won't get back
