    We did.
    I should have been clearer, sorry .

    Why can't we sell someone we don't want?
    Even a nominal fee would have been better. Erol doesn't want him.

    It's a buyers market for players like Wintle. I doubt many clubs were waving money at us for his permanent signature. Unfortunately, that can be said for most of who we may wish to offload. It'll change as contracts run out and things develop. Fir the moment, even reducing the wage bill is good.

    You must be on your own in that thought. He did no more than tap in the good work of others. He did nothing else of any merit.

    Down there with all the other rubbish centre forwards we had.

    Kanga has played 3 games, had no service at all. You could be right but he has to be given a chance.

    There definitely seems to be a focus on younger talent for the future. We went down that route before didn't we? It cost MM his job.
    Anyway, it would be nice to have someone here and now.

    Unless Kanga starts firing, I'd stick with Robinson and Reindorf. Assuming nothing unexpected happens by Friday.

    Reindorf's touch let's him down. A few misplaced passes last night but at least he gets on the ball through effort rather than waiting to be given it like Kanga.

    Got a feeling Robbo is going to come good and have a big impact this season.

    If he gets on the ball twice as often as Kanga, he can afford some misplaced passes.
    He knows where the goal is too.

    Like you, after his clear the air talks with Erol, I think we'll see a lot more from Robinson this year. And with Colwill, Robertson, Willock and El Ghazi, there'll be more bullets in the chamber for him.

    We could still do with trimming down the number of strikers we have and look for a bit more quality.
    Kanga, Meite, Etete all seem much of a muchness and I can see Reindorf surpassing them.
    Davies may be a bit different.

    I still am baffled over this. He was ready for CL football but now not ready for EFL championship <confused>

    I really do hope that Bulut has another decent striker lined up. We really can’t rely on what we’ve got up front at the moment. Hopefully we will see by tomorrow night.
    When that deadline passes are we still able to get loan signings in?

    No, but we can still sign any player who's out of contract with his current club - there are quite a few who look to be heading that way.

    Not putting a like to that as I don't like it.

    Big money for the guy but a lack of ambition if he goes to League 1. Even if Birmingham have ambition they have to do it over the next 8 months.

    Brum have a wonderful track record in spending big wether it be players or managers and still c0cking it up.
    Not sour grapes but I think the player should consider his future as BfB said.

    Thank you for your endorsement Clingo. <applause>

    Not that VT will pay £9m plus.

    Just read Fulham have turned down Brum's bid.

    Doesn't say if they want more or prefer to loan him out again or want to keep him.

    A window in the window for us maybe....

    Maybe Fulham will ‘see through that’ and look for more cash. Boom boom<whistle>

    Hopefully their window is dirty and they won't fork out for a cleaner - cash only.
