First Villa signing of January 2011 transfer window?

[cdbearsfan]

When do you reckon we'll bring a player in?

I reckon we can rule out January 1st-3rd due to week-end/bank holiday. Presumably you need somebody in the office to work the fabled fax machine and confirm deals.

I'll go for January 6th.

Votes after 31st December not allowed!

10th - 12th. Just a random guess.

[Toronto Villa]

I don't think GH will waste too much time. First week at some point. I'm going for two for sure deals, and 1 if the pieces fall into place, but quite late in the month.

[The Left Side]

I think he will send out an early message that the squad is changing a bit in January (he says with fingers crossed).

[TheSandman]

Jan 5th. Presented to the crowd at the Sunderland game.

It would be a pleasant change not to have to wait until the last seconds of the window, gurning over SSN and that bellend with his array of phones. I've plumped for January the 7th.

[The Man With A Stick]

Our first post-MON transfer window.  Aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

[WikiVilla]

Most of the Jan activity is last day
Why would this year be any different?

[spangley1812]

Well if GED is as well connected as some people on here say/think he should really be talking to players/clubs now with the objective to get them in asap

[TheTimVilla]

Jean II Makoun, from Lyon, on 11th January 2011.

And in January staying up with it until about 2 only to find we haven't signed a soul.

[JUAN PABLO]

Jan 6th   Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

[BedsVillain]

Jan 6th   Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

Then loan him back to the Saints on the 7th...win win!!

[PaulWinch again]

Hopefully within the first week.

Is that the chap who feels the need to shout all of the time?
