    So little sister club can’t afford to buy this player outright and gets big sister club to buy and loan. Suspicious ffp behaviour surely

    There will be plenty, most of us didnt think the lad from Lens was realistic or even a target yesterday then by lunch time we were hearing that we are in advanced talks with him

    Things will be happening behind the scene and ill always make.judgement on what we have done when the window closes

    Don’t get me wrong we’re clearly trying. It’s just always slow and we always end up short. They HAVE to get one in

    We knew nothing about either midfielder until yesterday afternoon so I’m relaxed. For now.

    Hes going to be one of the 3 regardless. We definitely need another one and I think we'll get one. It'll be someone who hasn't been linked in the media imo, we're pretty good at keeping things quiet

    When you have the same old for three years you have to ask why

    We seem to dilly dally about and wait until the last minute and end up with no strikers

    Fingers crossed something happens

    What 8/9 days to go? There’s 36 hours now

    I’m remaining hopeful because our club is very silent usually. But the public scenes don’t look promising.

    Something doesn't add up with this Simic stuff.

    He's good enough to play up front for Salzburg and us but not Cardiff?

    Been nothing at all about him turning us down until now from the Cardiff end. Never even heard them be mentioned before? You'd think the leaks would come from the same place as before.

    Either he's turned us down to go out on loan, which seems unlikely.

    We've got someone we think is better.

    Or it's BS. Which if there local paper is anything like the echo, it will be <laugh>

    Yes I was very calm as of yesterday we had 3 in the fire we knew about. Then a couple hours this morning we’re down to 1 that seems out of reach. Of course there’s behind the scenes work too

    Why would they become available last minute? you want to hope the club aren't waiting on that either, this is not the time to be waiting for potential deals

    I am aware of that

    and look back at previous windows for all clubs,

    most transfers, loans or permanent arent done towards the end as that is when the parent club is looking to move on

    I called the 'Still not coming info' BS, so I don't know.

    Did a Delboy and bought a van-load of dodgy pitchforks last week just for this moment. £20 each, who wants one?

    Only joking btw. Still relaxed here.
