Happy and already looking forward to next summer when we will hopefully need to sign premier league class players :-)

Happy with the window.

Only further things I was hoping for in an ideal world was Richards and Gabby out, with a good young CB coming in as backup to Chester and Elphick, and a more experienced GK as I'm not sure Gollini is ready to be No.1 all season yet. I'm happy with CM for now with Jedinak starting with either Tish or Westwood, I think Westwood will do OK with Jedinak alongside him. Gardner is then the second backup with Bacuna in there for emergencies.

Voted 'happy' - a goalkeeper, three defenders, three midfielders and  two forwards, complete transformation of the squad, and some of the deadwood cleared out. Like others, I'm not sure about Gollini and would have preferred a more experienced  goalkeeper, but fair play to Dr Tone for delivering what he promised and backing the manager. I'd have voted 'over the moon' if we'd got rid of Richards and Agbonlahor as well.

Anyone been keeping a full list of outs, ins, loans and net spend?

About as good as we could have realistically hoped for considering we had 10 weeks after Tone took over and the mess we were in.

footyskillz will love you MonXI ... Dave on the other hand.

I vote happy! 
And i vote happy there is a poll. I like them because it gives an accurate representation of what followers are feeling. It also gives each person a chance to have their vote so its fair. 

Regards signing I like what we ve done attackimg wise ans defence . I would ideally liked another midfielder . Can't help thinking we would have got a : Bastian Schweinsteiger or Jack Wilshire if we were still in premier league.

But de laet,  Chester, Elphick , jedinak, adamoah , McCormack,  kosdja , and ever improving gollini . Very decent and all 8 should be the crux of the team

Happy days

Every goal set out was achieved in the main. This team can only get better as the season goes on and if at the of the season you can rate seven of the nine brought in as 8/10 based on current potential performance I think we will have achieved promotion

Perhaps the newcomers will be immune to the negativity espoused by Richards and Gabby and that might possibly pull them back into line as we push closer to the PL.

If not then get rid of the freeloaders!

Voted over the moon but i'm happy first time in quite a while we have actually signed quality leaders in my opinion, Jedniak, Elphick

Hopefully we can all gel on the pitch and stop wilting when we concede, show a bit of lions spirit if you like

Cautiously happy - we still don't know if all the signings will come off but the club have delivered most of what they said they were aiming for, so you can't complain.

Happy, only doubt I have is signing an inexperienced, foreign keeper (not sure how good his English is?) when I feel that we needed another old, steady head back there.

I'd be happier if Hernandez was onboard. Still a few hours to go. But I read they are finished with incoming transfers

I thought in the wise words of SKY...that the window had slammed shut ?

Would have been OTM if we had another CB, an AM and a NPUM* but on balance "Happy" seems about right. Huge rebuild begun.

I thought Happy and Over The Moon were the same thing
