Official Transfer Deadline Day thread…

Thought we would have had at least one player lined up once Bowler obviously going. Not good enough. What must Appleton be thinking?
 
Theres got to be some news still to come, we never seem to announce after the deadline if there is it's usually the next day.

To leave it so late for bowlwr if its left no time would be very disappointing, however it might have been sorted much earlier.

We let a midfielder go when we're massively short so I can only assume we have signed someone, I'm having faith.

Won't be long until we find out.

Well you started off with the money is staying in the club. Then Hazi pointed out the signings. Then you reply with the loans might be as shit as TJJ and return in January.

That's about as miserable as it gets. Truly. Cheer the fuck up. Our squad is stronger than last season. The problem is injuries. And possibly the change of manager.
 
Let's be honest here, we are in serious trouble.

Our only really creative player looks to be gone, our MF is gutted, our defence looks like it will ship goals every week and strikers who struggle to score.

I was very vocal about not wanting Appleton but I feel so bad for him right now. He hasn't been backed, in fact he's been left with a weaker team that he started with.

Over £5.2m brought in this window and less that £1m spent. That's not gonna keep us in the Championship.
 
The last player fell through, believe it was Jimmy Clitheroe who the club wanted to play in the development squad. Unfortunately his real age came out during talks and the signing was called off.

How is it stronger?

I meant permanently, him being replaced by a loan isn't exactly great is it.

But better to have brought a highly regarded loan player in than nobody at all. We’d be replacing Bowler at the end of the season anyway. I’m happy with Poveda in and time taken to find a good perm signing if there wasn’t a suitable choice immediately available.

Big risk signing a perm replacement in advance of the Bowler deal given the circumstances. It obviously wasn’t nailed on from how today has gone. It still isn’t confirmed by us or Forest yet.

Give your head a shake, we have a better squad than this time last year!

Do you honestly think that?

We've got 1 recognised RB and are relying on unproven loans in MF and RW. Lost our experienced CH and replaced him with a lad that couldn't get into the Swansea team. Lost our main attacking threat that was a huge reason we stayed up last year and right now are playing a striker on the LW because the wingers we do have aren't good enough.

On what planet is that a stronger team?
 
Not much to look at. Hope he's up to it. 👍

I pointed out the loans are precisely that, if some or even one is as good asTJJ we are back to square one and we don’t know how much was spent on them. Why is that miserable? And if it is so what, that’s my opinion. If you don’t like it you don’t have to agree, or even read my posts , that’s your prerogative.

I did read your post and it was comically negative so I commented on it. It's a forum and people read things you write and reply to them. Cope with it.

Negativity and being miserable are two entirely different things, however we will agree to disagree on this point. I think overall we are in agreement more than disagreement and I know we both have the best interests of the club at heart.😘
