I honestly think the only two we’ll lose if we don’t go up are Watson and Jobe, and maybe Neil if no new deal. it’s too soon for Rigg and I think he’ll know that, seems sensible.

Not heard anything to suggest Danns hasn't happened. Ba's loan exit also expected, might be one or two other fringe players moving too.
I personally think more. Cirkin, Neil, Watson and Bellingham definitely. Hume too potentially. Obviously Le Fee, Samed and Mepham too, though I think there’d be a deal to be done for Mepham with the billion pounds we’d have received in transfer fees.
Looks like WBA managed to get Adam Armstrong. Some signing that for the level. If he settles quickly that probably puts them favourites to sneak into the playoffs
shows the benefit of not going too early in the window. Hand on heart i bet Sheff Utd would have preferred Armstrong to Cannon
expecting the doom mongers back to fill our heads full of woe...been quite quiet this window to be fair. right, i am happy with this window but will admit i could be happier, was hoping for a little more 'depth' to the squad but i certainly would not like to be the people doing the transfers, a delicate balance of getting what you need/want without spending too much whilst keeping the owners, players and fans happy, think there still might be some announcements to come, guess we will see the morn. watson is a sunderland player and will be at least till summer, so he gets my full support...we have to remember that he is a young lad with ambition and maybe he is thinking too far ahead or just getting duff advice, unless his head has really been turned nowt changes for me. we have a good squad as it is, a little 'fine tune' was probably needed but when you consider the lads becoming ready to start (pretty much new signings) and those returning from injury i have to think the squad is now improved for the rest of this season.
