I would happily take Sinclair, he would be a good addition.
Not for me.
His attitude stinks.

Personally i'd have kept KEA until we had a deal or two done.

I agree.

He was at least an option, now that option isn't there, and neither is Gardner (who Lambert was talking up recently).

Yanited want rid of him to ensure they get a fee.  Why dont they pay the extra £20k for a year (this is a poor attempt at humour).

Yep, he'd be a good addition, especially with Zog still finding his fitness levels.

It's what you do.  Give someone who never plays through injury a new two year contract, then send him out on loan again.

Is the Canales one dead then?
Dead in the water


To weaken the squad by letting players go before replacing is fucking moronic by Lambert. Canales was clearly a non starter, why on Earth did they go for such unrealistic targets?

To make it appear as if they were trying to spend, when in truth they were never going to.

Is what I'd think if I was cynical.
You drama queens!

An outright purchase yes. Not a fan of loans.

Why? Everyone else is doing it. We should take advantage of the system that exists.
Don't disagree just saying prefer outright deals.

Transfer window. Some leave, some arrive. Some are bid for, some are not. We have 7 new players. It would be nice to have more. They don't have to join us. We don't have to keep others.
Struggling to understand moronic in this context.
Which bit is difficult to understand?

It wouldn't matter to them though. If they can afford the likes of Falcao and Di Maria, then Cleverley picking up his money for another few months won't bother them that much.

Kea going is no loss at all.
We have Gardner and Johnson both as back up, both better players plus Grealish is now big in the game.

I don't like the way watching SSN makes me feel at the best of times, but watching it when that loudmouthed brainless gobshite is on, with the accompanying desperate attempts of the channel to build a cult of personality around him on deadline day, makes me feel soiled.

I have never used the services of a prostitute, but the feeling I get after watching hours of SSN on deadline day is the feeling I imagine men get after doing that.
