I will be stunned if this clown is still in charge by October

Is he shite

Let's hope he ain't injury prone while we are at it

I never rated Hanley the first time but christ I will welcome him with open arms right now. Better than anything we have right now. However I don't believe we will sign anyone today and I'm going to switch off until this evening and go out for the day with the wife and kids. Even that's less stressful than a rovers transfer window.

I know this has been covered already but it simply defies belief that the bumbling baffoon is repeating his tricks of January. Gets rid of downing leaving 3 injury prone centre backs. Low and behold injury strikes after the window closes so we bring in Magloire. Now we can't even bring him in when the inevitable happens. Is this gonad doing this deliberately. Time he fucked off?

FFS hopefully this is just idle gossip. I like TM I really do but the defence has been a long standing problem. I finally thought the penny dropped but his comment this week suggests otherwise. Maybe it's a smokescreen and he actually has deals in place in which case fair play to him. But if not then the sack may be on the horizon and sadly he will deserve it and I'll have no sympathy.

Let's check those odds on relegation... Cos unless he sorts defenders in the next 5 days that's where its headed.

They must have been working hard in preseason to address the defensive frailties of the last 2/3 seasons with this backline then. Another season of having to score 4 to win a game beckons

Has he heard of any others Chaddy. Not on twitter myself

He did say he was hopeful. I advised folk not to hold their breath.... Seems like I was right and TM was all talk again. You'll get more truth from Pinocchio that TM lately

I wouldn't hold your breath. Think TM should keep quiet till players are pictured holding the scarf

TM saying he hopes to have 1 in on Monday. I hope to god its for real this time cos he ain't helping himself with this kind of talk.

I can see double figures for Brereton this season and a lot of folks on here backtracking claiming they knew he'd come good.

We definitely need a few out. Still think we'll get a couple in before the window shuts

It's becoming very frustrating. Somebody else posted earlier that maybe we've moved away from tosin and have someone new lined up and that's the delay. I'm beginning to think that makes sense.

I was under the impression we'd offered him some kind of deal but I hope you're right. No issue with the guy using our facilities but don't want him stealing a wage

We can't announce 2 in a day, God forbid. They're saving it for tomorrow I guess

So much can happen and usually does as the deadline approaches. Yes in an ideal world we would all like our business done early to bed players in. But let's see how things pan out over the last few days. Personally I think we are nearly there. I'd happily stick with leutweiler as no2 if we spend our last remaining budget on a couple of quality defenders though. And besides if it was all plain sailing how dull would transfer deadline day be ?

Perfect timing then. We all know how short we are in defence and those we have are prone to injury. Glad it happened now and not day after transfer window closes. Time to act TM

West brom have a new manager. Has his own ideas and way of playing game and different priorities in terms of playing staff.

If you're going to include outgoing players twice it does make the incoming list look poor. And downing spent most of last season at Doncaster anyway

Hopefully that shuts up some of your doubters. Got me more intrigued though cos I'm doubtful it will be Hart.

Don't do it mate. Lots of us value the info and appreciate that you can't reveal all. We just have to be patient as frustrating as that may be

I think you're right. My money on Carson

I appreciate you probably can't say who but is it a loan or permanent signing
