I read we've made a couple of signings - Harry Arter (mentioned above) and Sam Lavelle (former Morecambe Captain) Second one was genuine news to me. Word seems to be there may be a couple more loanees squeaking in before 11pm
When does the loan window finish ? Isn't it usually a few weeks after the transfer window or is it different this year (maybe pandemic related ?) ?
Isn't Lavelle a centre back ? In which case we've now got 5 of them. I'm all for competition for places but I'd rather have an extra left back. Unless of course we can get both. Lavelle is 24 so a good age for a centre back and maybe it will just mean that Pearce's playing days really are over with us.
Very interesting... but feels like a bit of a stretch to me. I can't say why, but I'll be surprised if it happens. Seems to have been left very late indeed. Maybe too late.
I read somewhere that the 11pm deadline tonight doesn't apply to loan deals. But that makes no sense to me. I assume what I read is just incorrect. (I do know that free agent deals are not affected by the deadline)
Blimey, they've got Leko! Shows how much I know Pity we never got a left back. But it's not a perfect world we live in. UP THE ADDICKS!
I always thought the loan window went on longer than the transfer window but I can’t tell you where I got that from. The mind’s not what it used to be
Looks a pretty good transfer window, although the proof of the pudding and all that! Leko and Arter give us some fresh options going forward, and Lavelle was loved by Morcambe - buying a captain from a team in the same league hardly smacks of the lack of funding moaned about elsewhere. The trick will be to fit these players into a starting line up to dismantle the opposition. But overall, I'm optimistic.
