Too late! needed reinforcement prior to Wigan, Southampton and Newcastle at home. just hope we try to play a little more respectable football.
We played Wigan in December!!!!!!
Fair point, but what i was getting at is that we all knew how light weight we were, these players should of been moving on the 1st Jan not 30/31 Jan

Sometimes just the fact there are new players can give everyone a lift.
As far as I'm aware from the current squad, there is only the reserve quarterback Bannan that needs a lift.

Bent has been the big loser in all the changes over the last two seasons, he's not suddenly become a bad player just a player totally unsuited to the way we play now. Imagine how he would have felt when Young and Downing were sold. Good player wrong club.

Yes. He relies on service from the wings which we do not seem to do any more. What a waste of a talent.

Sylla?  never heard of him never seen him. I doubt Lambert has either.  But, we have our first signing so it's 'hello number 1 and where do you come from'?

Well, it's on Twitter. I don't know if that counts.
Not in The Press so far.

Someone on VT claiming Abdoulaye Ba is having a medical tomorrow.

not sure on this ITK's credentials but Ba is the 6'6" Porto centre back we have long been linked with.
