Gudjohnson looked like the sort of number 9 we need. Physical, looked after the ball, good movement. I love Yuki but he isn't a number 9 and never will be.

Going to keep it short... Wharton was absolutely UNBELIEVABLE. Cantwell class. Carter also class. I'm going to say it.... Ryan Alebiosu is better player than Brittain. Quicker, stronger, better defender and a better crosser aswell. What a player.

Anyone know what Nixon said about Dawson exactly? Is it looking likely? Big hopes for this one. Potential season defining signing, really important they get this done. Especially in the international break to start getting him up to speed and integrated.

Be fair, you also have Fadz and Batth who came in and did good jobs.

Dawson would be a perfect signing in current circumstances. Vast experience that we need, leadership, useful on corners. Would give me a lot more confidence for the season.

Final income tally. Feel free to correct me if I miss something and I'm rounding up on the reported fee's. Brittain 3.5m Trav 3.5m Hyam 2.7m JRC 1m Buckley 1m Leanord 1m Chelsea kid 1m Telalovic sell on 300k Dolan 280k Total 14.28 million. Hard to calculate the expenditure but if you believe the reported fee's it's around 9.5 million. Personally I think it's lower than that, more like 7-8 mill.

Jeff Stelling just gave us a bit of a mention at the start of the breakfast show, reading out a fans message about Hyam leaving at the death is a disgrace. If anyone else fancies dropping them messages they might get a bit more attention.

Is he shit?

I know we're past deadline but has it been confirmed that no one is coming in?

What makes you say this?

They're making it so. This is what happens when non footballing people who don't care about the football club make decisions. Pasha is their henchman who's quite clearly making heartless & ruthless decisions for them.

What boils my piss is... At this stage that money will get swallowed up, never to be seen again.

Surely there's just enough time to get a fucking deal agreed for someone decent FFS... There's no way you can dress up selling your main CB at the last minute purely for money as anything other than a cost cutting measure. Yeah, sell players who have a year left but not an hour before the fucking deadline. Set of twats.

Surprised Pickering hasn't been moved on, I bet they tried. Annoying that it's taken till an hour before the window to bid almost 3 million for Hyam FFS...

No stress. We'll be alright (hopefully) it's the manager that concerns me more than the players tbh. Some managers just fit, this one just doesn't IMO.

Nah, what I'm saying is I wouldn't have been against it if they were going at least use some of the funds to strengthen elsewhere like up front... Because we have cover at CB. I get you're frustrated, we've won 1 in 4 but at least try to see what people are saying. We can't keep letting millions of pounds worth of players walk out the door every season. What I'm saying is it's too late to reinvest it anyway.

I wouldn't have been against selling Hyam earlier in the window because we're pretty well stocked at CB with Mcgloughlin, Wharton, Miller, Carter & O Riordon (if need be) but at this stage of the window... We know that money will just get pocketed.

Just fucking pathetic. How do they not see that this will just cost them money as people will just go to pubs showing games instead? Dickheads.

It was on then they switched it over with a room full of people because they were told to do so.

Went blues bar afterwards... Some woman went round every TV and turned off sky sports news to BBC1... When quizzed she said to take it up with the club because she'd been instructed to and worked for sedexo or something. Fucks all that about?

Why? WHY??? HASN'T HE PUT MILLER & GUEYE ON???? We had a throw in deep in their half that went backwards whilst we're 1-0 down at home. Fucking div.

Only way we can get something now is take Kargbo off for Miller and get Gueye on for long throw.

He's been alright from where I'm sitting. It's Kargbo and Tavares who are having poor games in and out of possession.

Kargbo been bloody awful.

2nd best here, chasing the game, got to get a foothold and be better in possession. Yuki is bloody frustrating at times, offside way too many times. Tavares has got to try and control the game more.
