How many clubs have had a complete turnaround as a result of the Jan transfer windo?

Small Heath under Bruce usually did well in turning things around when they were in trouble in the PL. (with one exception when they were really hit by injuries and went down.)

I've just realised the other reason they went down that year was Harry Redknapp doing ever better deadline day business!

[wittonwarrior]

Taking his viewpoint he is trying to open with supporters. Bet he didn't appreciate the cynicism of a few. Not sure if it's the best forum for him but it's a look and learn experience. Better than a disinterested randy

So another phrase for his tweets have dried up is 'his tweets haven't dried up.'

Speaking sense and it's just very gracious to let the fans know:
Tony recent tweets read

"Be patient as we are pushing hard to our targets' clubs to expedite but they slow down for these or those reasons. Trying our best pushing.

"I can assure we'll done b4 the deadline but can't promise anytime earlier becoz clubs may want keep them playing more games costing nothing.

"Understood all frustrations but if you can help club go to kidnap our targets to come earlier then I would be very happy too. Pls be patient.

Never known a set of fans so obsessed with transfer activity.

It shows people are bothered and have a glimmer of hope that a few decent signings just might see us make the play offs

after seasons of shit if we dont have hope we dont have anything

To be honest I'm more concerned that we need new blood to avoid a late season relegation scrap from what I seen on Saturday.  We've still got to play the top 8.

Tweeting the chairman saying 'you're full of shit' is not the right way to be bothered.

Mr Funkeltrumpet, you are right, HOPE is everything if you are a life-long Villa fan.

Bobby Hope, now there was a midfielder..................

I think people are obsessed with being successful again and the frustration of this season. The January window being what it is adds to that. I don't think we are any more obsessed about transfers than any other group.

Thats the spirit!

Apart from every other football teams fans?

The only thing I don't understand is the obsession with how much a player costs, it's not like it's coming out of our pocket so I couldn't care less.

Mr TV you are correct.
We are obsessed with being the Villa we used to be.

But this isn't " Football Manager " or " FIFA 2017 ".
It is not Fantasy Football where you can buy and sell just as you please. There are some other swines out there who try to scuff it up for you. And Agents, who would like their cut to be out of £10m instead of £6m so they tout an average player like to Lansbury to Norwich to get a bidding war going to up the ante. Job done, and more of our money drains out of the game into Agent's back pocket.

Thank you.  I try.
