Well, he’s not the chosen one. I make him at best 3rd choice.

Out of interest, if you where the manager would you rather play Dan Butterworth or Oliver Burke?

Get this - I’ve just been told Burke is happening and the loan deal is being brokered directly by Suhail!

Hardly inspiring.

Oh god. This stinks of a last minute panic. Disclaimer: Watch him score 25 goals this season now.

Have we got a list of strikers left that we’ve been linked with? Burke Obafemi (Swansea) Maja (veto’d by Rich Sharpe) Lowe (Bournemouth) Healey Any not on the list?

I’ll be wrong - but I don’t think we’re signing a striker here. My rationale is surely if at 21:20 there is no credible links, there isn’t enough time to get anything done by 23:00?

Signed him on Football Manager when Arma refused to play if I didn’t sell to Arsenal. He was terrible.

I’ve been banned from Twitter for saying that Ryan Nyambe has a “niggle” so I’m enjoying a transfer deadline day without getting a load of duff information on Twitter DMs

I’m absolutely astonished that Tony has approved signing a player that’s turned up with a manbag. After turning away a player for wearing ripped jeans this is quite something.

Luca?

He’s our best attacking player, I’d like to think we’re planning for his return.

Where’s Dacky playing if he’s a winger and we’re playing three up front?

One in 4 at best. Yikes.

He’s usually pretty decent is O’Rourke.

Haven’t read the thread but the Brighton winger has signed and they’ve told Obafemi he has until 10am tomorrow to show intent.

We’re too small through the middle. Travis, Buckley, Clarkson, Poveda, Davenport, Dolan, Rothwell… not one of them looks taller than 5’10”.

Tyler Magloire is absolute pony. He’s comedy shit.

Their best player is their tricky, quick left winger. We had 2 right backs play yesterday for the U23s - Pike and JRC. Carter is on a yellow card and is in big trouble. He can’t touch their left winger and everything is going through him. We don’t have a right back or centre back option on the bench to replace him with. Total stupidity. Meanwhile, I’m meant to believe that Nyambe has a niggle that’s kept him out for three weeks.

Boro all over us here.

Corker of a finish from Sam.

He’s on 400K

Mercer's record is even worse than mine.

Well done Steve on successfully removing all staff morale at Ewood and Brockhall by taking the full-time club staffs complimentary season tickets off them. What says "we appreciate the work you do" quite like "wanna watch? pay up!". I notice another has left today, Tom Jarvis who ran the twitter feed. Shambles.
