Bristol City bid £2.5million for Dack
Dicker left Carlisle for Jocko land

 

[Iggle Piggle]

Leicester, top of the Premier League, failed to sign a striker in the window. Wonder if their fans are moaning as much as ours.

Most sensible people have called it as it is. 3 good signings plus one for the future and a stop gap left back. Attracting a striker in our price range better than what we've got was always a tough ask plus I wouldn't be surprised if someone pitched up in the loan window. Throw in that no-one has left who the first team will miss based on what we've seen so far this season and I can't see how you can argue.

It's only the bell ends, 12 year olds and wind up merchants in the mental zone.

Agree. Think we've got real quality going forwards now with Knockaert, LuaLua back, Wilson seemingly staying and hopefully Skalak offering quality too. Looking forward to the rest of the season and we have the loan window too if needed.

You say it as if they're mutually exclusive. I'm pretty sure there's a fair bit of crossover between the three groups.

Impossible!

Oh dear unfortunate name !


Charlton have announced the signing of former France international defender Rod Fanni on loan until the end of the season.

 

[fat old seagull]

I'm STRUGGLING to see the POSITIVES tonight. Not one DECENT striker means nothing will CHANGE

Ernest old chum, we know that really you're not struggling at all. You, like most on here think it's not to bad a WINdow. But as always you do like a little stir up. Let's give the Checky Chappy a chance, I was pizzed off when we SINged that Argie, but he turned out to be ok. Now get bizzy and pick a winner for tomorrow's Daily Nap.....you need one!

Former Bayern Munich youngster Dale Jennings released by MK, another promising home-grown talent that hasn't lived up to a fraction of his hype. He looks a bit on the porky side for a footballer..:

Boro sign Julien de Sart for an undisclosed fee.

 

[perseus]

It's all over. The Championship starts in earnest now!

 

[GT49er]

Really happy with our dealings in the last couple of months, sorry to be up beat and positive as I know it's against the grain of most of the doom merchants on here. We can't buy big as we can't afford it and FFP, so happy with what we have done.

But you've forgotten to mention we haven't bought a left back!

(Just thought I'd mention it, seeing as how BG seems to be out for the evening!)

Ritchie De Laet move on loan from Leicester and Boro may have not gone ahead? Not that I am fan of de Laet and he is a right footed left back and not so good because of it.

Right footed is no good for a left back, because they can't pass the ball foward to the left wide midfielder ............................ Geez, don't you ever read what the experts say on NSC?

Can't block crosses, when the winger goes outside, so well, better at stopping inverted wingers.

Not sure if the loan transfer has gone through. Or it might be a late one?

Probably not, but then the clue lies in your post. They're top of the premier league despite any shortages they have. Brighton sank down the league like a lead balloon when they were left short. Bit different mate.

 

[SteveTheSeagull]

Really? An integal part of a useful Czech international team and you're underwhelmed.
Wow.
Some people have incredibly high expectations. Not sure who you were hoping for but I'd say he's an impressive addition to our squad.

I don't have incredibly high expectations as you put it. We just need a proven goalscorer. To me this feels like it may turn out to be another Clunge.

No evidence Slalak is anything like Colunga.

Speculative pessimism.

Maybe, but when you have had a few bad eggs it's kinda hard to see any good eggs.
