    I'm not disputing you posting it, just your comments after about the loan to Goztepe. Maybe wait on the judgement until the rumour is more solid.

    I expect there is next to no chance of a player direct from Chile getting a work permit. Hence the loan

    or maybe it facilitates the striker from the Turkish club (the one they apparently won’t sell to us due to wanting to build around him) moving to us? Cruz?

    Enough to make you sour! Still I guess he just wanted a slice.

    Why does it shut for 6 days? Bit weird.

    Yes, as the CWC used to be held mid-season.

    Who cares? The window closing for a few days is pretty much irrelevant to us as a club.

    It seems pointless anyway but I guess it’s simply to stop someone signing a player “mid tournament”. But surely this could be got around by just having squad registration? Which I thought tournaments did anyway. CWC on FM did and it was annoying !

    if the mid tournament thing is an issue then that “logic” makes no sense given the summer window closes after several games have been played and the January one has games played during

    I now vaguely remember talk about how the transfer windows would kill the championship / football manager games

    I don't think closing is right. Slams shut is the terminology that you are looking for

    I half remember it being sort of the opposite. Something like the summer window can only be a certain number of days and if it's one continuous block then the window would open after registration for the CWC closed. So they decided to open the window a few days earlier and then close it for a few days which allows clubs to do what Madrid did with TAA and sign players for the tournament.

    Imagine how shocked I am to learn the rules were changed because Real Madrid wanted them to be

    As one window slams... another opens in readiness for formbooks to be gleefully launched from.

    Wonder what the chances are of Dibling to Bournemouth following today's transfer news?

    What news?

    I mean the answer is virtually zero, but curious as to the news you’re referring to?
