    I know people will probably not agree with me but I think we didn't do too badly in the window - could've been better of course but I feel something good is being built at the club. We have players that are very talented and can grow along with the club. Here's hoping we can continue with the good start for the season this afternoon

    Can we just put this window behind us now and do what we all do best and just support those lads on the pitch

    That goes without saying for me as I'm totally behind the way KLD, KS and SH are doing business.

    3 points today and we'll be bouncing come 5pm.

    It would seem so - never happier when they’re moaning.

    This, he seems ideally suited to the very energetic press we are playing and as it stands deserves to be given a lot of opportunities. I’ll take our own young player being in the side ahead of paying ludicrous amounts like Birmingham have.

    I'm happy with it mate, we had a good team already.

    I really didn't like the Mendy situation and the club were right not to buckle ...

    ... we used to be mugs in the transfer market.

    On the morning dog walk feeling like I'm in the video for Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah

    Gotta beat these lot today with them having a few centre backs out injured. Apparently they've been playing a RB and CH

    A baby striker with 60 seconds of men’s football in his career. Just not good enough

    I’m neither disappointed or elated with our business this window. What we’ve witnessed is what we should expect.
    We were told from day 1 that the club will be self sustaining and this window highlights that. We sell arguably our best player and reinvest bringing in sone young very promising talent that our back room staff can mound into first team assets.
    I assume most windows, especially the summer ones, will be like this.

    Very happy with the window, these last 4 signings will have a massive say in our fortunes this season and in Wilson Isidor we have a 1 in 3 goals striker. Don't care what other posters think he's came here as a striker and a very experienced one at that

    I wonder if we’ve agreed a deal with Mepham already for when his contract ends at the end of the season.

    Would’ve preferred more experienced I agree the point is we have a bit of depth to Isidor at least. He might be very good. Unknown at least

    If we had a kid in the academy with the lad from gents record in youth/2nd team footy we’d be screaming for him to get a chance, he could surprise us all, on paper he’s not what we needed, just never know how these types of signings could go

    We got the 4 but we have really, left ourselves short of quality experience in the 9 again.

    Have to hope instead of looking at an investment with assurance.

    It’s all on Isidor. Big gamble by the club to pocket the Clarke money

    Yeah it's not. We didn't need another Hemir singing. The absolute opposite of it.

    Anyway, thank heaven's there's a match so we can get back to the football.
