I think you are getting very close to tinfoil hat territory!

It's terrible bidding for some guy I have never heard of!!! EUGH (head twitching from side to side)

If he is as good as some say he is, it could be a great bid. He clearly wasn't our 1st choice though. I bet we were priced out of a move for Gallagher

It's disappointing if we don't sign anyone, but we aren't bidding on players just to look good.

Has the bid being accepted or whats the craic?

What kind of player is he?

Going off twitter the Forrest fans are about 80/20 positive on the lad. Most saying he is worth £15 million. Make of that what ye will

He didn't promise anything. Wish people would stop saying he did!

It's that time in Football manager when you just start bidding for everyone and see what happens Maybe I am being harsh. I have never heard of this lad

Who knows. His agent may have told him to hold off and see what other offers come in. I doubt players are aware of our lists Unless they come on here

Apparently if a deal is "in process", you can get a 2 hour extension after 5pm. I wonder what constitutes "in progress". An accepted bid?

I can only assume we were in for players that signed elsewhere. I would bet a number of players picked other clubs ahead of us. Reading on twitter Holmes picked Derby over us

Kind of. Mowbray himself stated in the past that you can't build a team based on a lot of loans. We needed a striker and a winger badly. It looks like we haven't signed them. Maybe players are just picking other clubs ahead of us.

Boro can fook right off You would think after the QPR chairman going as far as releasing a statement after our bid saying he wasn't for sale, clubs wouldn't bother

There aren't many in Ireland, luckily enough!

What an accolade When is the presentation ceremony? I think its very disappointing if we go from being linked with signing a highly rated Championship player for £4 million, to signing nobody. Can't gloss that over

In whose eyes?

We don't know what has been going on behind the scenes. It is disappointing , but we aren't the only club in this position. United and Spurs fans are going crazy also. I suppose they had better squads to start with though ? I don't know if it is down to bad management. Mowbray seemed confident we would get a few in, so something has happened. Who would be carrying out these negotiations?

Ya, but come on now you thought we would sign some players today

If it was £15 million, I would have to think about it

He clearly is/has been back. The deals just aren't falling into place

We weren't promised signings, Mowbray said he hoped to make them. If we don't make them it is disappointing and questions will need to be asked

Oh crap, Derby are about to sign Duane Holmes. Weren't we interested in him? Poor window for us as things stand

Wigan have sold Max Power to Sunderland. I thought he was one of their better players last season. Strange

What a great deadline that was compared to today
