    Got a feeling something must be about to happen to let O'Keefe go. Maybe we'll hear this evening ............

    ...............or maybe it is Ledley after the window shuts.

    I hope your feeling is right.

    It's asking a lot for Gunner, Ralls & Loic to stay fit for 9 months.
    Tomlin is not able to replace any of those.
    Halford likewise.

    Kennedy loaned to Pompey as well.

    Still no takers for Gonzo and Pilks.

    I'm told we are after Liam Feeney from Bolton - not the first time we have been linked with him.

    Surprised Kennedys gone on loan again. Thought he was worth a place on the bench.

    Doesn't anyone want Pilkington? Suppose if Noone & Kennedy have gone and K Harris is injured, we need some cover.

    Less than half an hour to sign some CM cover. Hope NW's on the phone now to sort something out :emoticon-0129-call:

    Two in one out - I hope Kennedy does well for Pompey

    Cardiff City are set to sign Derby midfielder Craig Bryson on a season-long loan and Blackburn midfielder Liam Feeney on loan until January.

    Bryson, 30, has made 244 appearances for Derby since joining from Kilmarnock in 2011.

    But this season he has been restricted to four Championship appearances from the bench and one EFL Cup start.

    Feeney, 30, joined League One side Blackburn in 2016 following spells with the likes of Bournemouth and Millwall.

    Meanwhile, Cardiff winger Matthew Kennedy has joined Portsmouth on a season-long loan.

    Bryson signing confirmed by City. There's our central midfield cover. I seem to recall we were keen on him a couple of years ago. But nothing yet on Feeney. Might be a bit late now.

    WoL says Feeney signed in loan until January to give cover for the injured Harris and Patterson. Nothing from City yet.

    Bryson on loan for the season.

    Both over 30 so clearly short term signings.

    No mention of Ledley although one report says he was having a medical earlier today. We shall see.

    Night all

    Bryson appears to be a good signing; NW says he's been high on his list for a while.

    Unsure about Feeney. Said to be wing cover but he let the promising Kennedy go.

    Plus we've still got Fred and Pilkington<whistle>

    All in all a very decent window especially as we kept Zahore:emoticon-0148-yes:

    Only just seen this this morning - out last night. Craig Bryson is a bloody brilliant signing!!

    I've been banging on about him for a couple of years for our midfield general - couldn't be happier with that!

    A very good window for us, happy with the deals done (and those not done).

    Welcome to our new players and good luck to those that have moved on.

    Bryson is a great signing, but where does he fit in? Cover or starting?

    Given the games come thick and fast I can see Warnock rotating 3 from 4 so he keeps players fresh. Also on occasion changing formation and using tomlin.

    Far more ballance to the squad but more numbers than the 21 - 22 Warnock was talking about.

    Good work by Colin and his backroom staff.

    Bring it on!

    Sorry Dai I have to disagree. It hasn't been a decent window. It's been unbelievable <laugh>!

    Warnock has transformed our squad for a pittance. As Sparks says Bryson feels like a very clever bit of business.
    Damour, NML, Hoilett, Bamba are top quality championship players. Patterson, Bryson, Feeney, Ward, all definitely make us a stronger squad.

    We've still got Zohore <ok><ok>, if he stays fit we'll be very close to automatic.

    Perhaps we will pay up Gonzo's contract to get him off the books. Wouldn't cost much.

    Pilks probably too expensive.

    Would have liked to see a Pilks loan move yesterday, can see him moving on in January.

    Delighted we have signed both Stuart O'Keefe and Matthew Kennedy from you on loan !! We needed an experienced central midfielder desperately, and young Kennedy looks an exciting prospect. Hope they do well for us.

    Good luck for this season - you've made a great start ! <ok>
