First Villa signing of January 2011 transfer window?
« on: December 22, 2010, 05:59:27 PM »
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.

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.

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

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.

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