FFS Mike give it a rest, at least till 11pm at least. I feel like slitting my wrists after reading this. Lets enjoy the hope of the day first.

So main rumours for today. Alex Gilbey - common knowledge we've been linked with him for a while Bradley Dack - is this one dead? Matt Smith - Dembele move to Spurs seems off so could be possible. Tom Bradshaw - Walsall absolutely not wanting to sell Adam Matthews - More paper talk but apparently not a priority. Twitter also suggesting Darren Bent and Charlie Adam as well, ludicrous and absolutely cannot see this happening but who knows. Stockhausen says our priorities are a CM in on a permanent deal (got to be Gilbey or possibly Dack) and a striker in on loan (possibly Bent if Twitter isn't lying?), Anyone I've missed?
MK Dons want to sign Jay Emmanuel-Thomas on loan from QPR, according to West London Sport. The striker has failed to hold down a regular place at Loftus Road and has fallen further down the pecking order since the arrival of Conor Washington.
MIDDAY RUSH FOR PL CLUBS Clubs face a midday rush to get their Deadline Day business done if they want new recruits to be available for Tuesday night's Premier League fixtures. New registrations of players have to be completed by midday the day before a round of matches, and with eight Premier League games taking place on Tuesday night, some clubs may be rushing to get their deals done. That could mean a busier morning than usual for a Deadline Day, as clubs look to get their deals done early to make sure new signings can make their match day squad. The transfer window in England shuts at 11pm on Monday evening.
O'Donnell signs. Free's up a spot for Bent, also no fee involved, we just owe Wigan a fee if we get promoted to the Prem.
Andy Stockhausen @AndyStockhausen 4m4 minutes ago Bristol, England I'm told @bcfctweets still pushing for loan striker and midfielder on permanent deal. But further business looking unlikely today.
Been scanning Twitter all day, luckily you learn which places are more 'trustworthy' than others. Seems a bid has been accepted for Tom Bradshaw as well.
Alex Richards @AA_Richards 8m8 minutes ago Bristol City with another move for Tom Bradshaw. Believed a deal has now been accepted by Walsall.????????????
