    Its all a bit odd this because some sources suggest that Dajaku returned to Bayern without Union taking up the option on him.

    They'd be boycotting (bouycotting) Papa Johns Pizzas and Sky Bet. They'd be marching down to the offices of the ELF and shouting outside the MIND Headquarters demanding something or other.....

    Patricio was until they sold him, agree that a keeper shouldn't wear 11.

    That is the line up of how traditionally numbers are used here, but they mean different things elsewhere. In Spain and Italy the 10 is traditionally the playmaker and in Argentina the 5 is the holding midfielder.

    Tifo did a quality video on the progression of squad numbers -

    Definitely. Look at the difference Neil and Embo have made this year.

    Not sure if Richardson or Dyce are quite ready for the move up yet though. We've clearly identified the need for another full back, so I'm sure we'll be trying to get one through the door today.

    Yeah these are common nowadays. So looks like they had an option for under £1million, likely they weren’t going to take it up but maybe our option to buy is higher so they’ve done their deal thinking make money off is if we want to keep him.

    Happens a lot in Spain/Italy.

    We'll never know until we try them - Given all the injuries we had last year, it's madness that Younger only got one game - not as mad as playing Power at Right Back and leaving Winchester on the bench like.

    You're not wrong mate, it's been a fantastic window. I'm glad I wasn't one of the people whinging we weren't signing anyone and was happy for us to bide our time to get quality rather than quantity.

    ****e thing about deadline day in League One is we don’t get covered.

    We were always super prominent. Now I’m just constantly refreshing Twitter

    This. Apparently a leauge one club signing players for Munich just isn't as important as the deals done in the two top leauges in England.

    ****ing hell if we get these 2 done today it’s been some window.

    Of Grigg goes we’ve literally cheat coded the whole thing.

    The fact the press haven’t had anything till they’ve been 90% done is a credit to the new found professionalism at the club, and has likely saved us packets in fees.

    Younger was and is ready for this level though, as clearly Embo and Neil were too. In the close season games, Younger coped well at CB, whereas there were question marks about the two full backs. If we can get one in, which we are clearly trying to do, then Winny and 09 can be used in midfield, as and when needed, giving us 6 midfielders for 3 positions, which is what LJ says he wanted (2 for each position).

    I wonder what happens now with our final full back vacancy.

    As far as I can tell, we now have 5 loan players - Doyle, Alves, Broadhead, Dejaku and Hoffman.

    If we sign a 6th, one will have to miss out on the squad.

    It could be that if the 6th is a full back option, they miss out when all others are available if the Cirkin and Huggins are.

    Sky hardly left the premier league all morning just repeating the same stuff over and over maybe they should have a separate show for the lower leagues
