Is the loan market open in the EFL after tonight?

No. They closed that loophole last season (or it may have been the season before). The only loanee we could bring in between midnight and the first of January would be an emergency goalkeeper in the event of an injury crisis.

Right back according to Transfermarkt, and uncapped so I can't see how we would obtain a work permit.

lets face it, McCormack is staying. So Bruce will have to find a way to save face and re-integrate him into the team. Davis should still get a shout and we have sufficient cover at all but Leftback. Not bad, but still 3 or 4 wasters hanging around (as indeed they have been for the last 7-8 years)

What a horrible image that brings to mind. If he needs anything squeezing out, he can do it himself.

Bruce turned down Sheff Weds last week. He's a keeper. After Johnstone, obviously.

Every club has wasted millions.
Yes the biggest wasters over the last 10 years Chelsea, Manu, Liverpool and Man City have spent anything up to £30 Millions on players who have contributed fuck all.

Since Hutton is neither-footed I'm sure he can go and be equally inept at left back as he is on the right.

I hope we utilise McCormack now and play him, make the fat lump earn his wages. It's a lot of money to let him rot in the reserves, plus we're not blessed with lots of goals throughout our squad.

So we signed

Johnstone - Loan
Terry - 12 months
Samba - 12 months
Whelan - 2 years
Onomah - Loan
Elmohamady
Snodgrass - Loan

Everyone happy with that?

I think it's been crap, one dimensional signings. Very Brucey.
