January Transfer window

We apparently have a 23 man squad at the moment, leaving 2 spaces, I can see us bringing in a wide player and then maybe a loan for a left back, before we are told that there was no space left in the squad for a striker signing (which coincidentally would have been a multi million £ signing that they would have loved to get done)

Calling it now - the club agrees a deal to bring in a 3rd player - a big money signing - but falls through at 23:01 as they conveniently 'forget' we don't have a squad place free. The happy clappers give Venkys/the board credit for trying their best.

I beat you to it 😉

Why isn't anybody calling?

(Oh yeah we're supposed to call them!)

Wouldn't put it past them, but that excuse wouldn't really wash, as they don't have to register the squad fully for the second half of the season until 24 hours after deadline day.

That wouldn't stop them, remember the equally silly excuse of "we only receive transfer fees in installments"?

The happy clappers will buy it nonetheless, as we have seen previously

Something to cheer us up at least, the return of Mercerman. Where have you been, fella ? The Board has missed your confident predictions of easy wins and your Ribble Valley wining and dining on the winnings 😊 Welcome back and now please announce Akor Adams……… 😂

Now fully retired and been doing some travelling and experiencing some wonderful places, wine and food.

Wasn't he on twitter making up the Pears rumour?!

Had this before. I am NOT part of the Twitterati.

You should have swung by Pune with a VenkysOut banner.

Adebayo just reminds me of Gueye tbh. Need a different kind of striker to compliment the ones we have

A goal scoring one.

Plus they could just leave Hilton out.

No doubt the excuses would go down well with those that don't know any better though.

If people are citing sources from X/twitter, then it's easy to add a link.

A lot of "ITK's" and a lot of accounts withouth any followers who are just attention-seekers. Add some more info than 'I've heard...' please.

100%. Especially amidst the cesspit of twitter wannabee ITKs, adds nothing chucking in a name without a source IMO.

[Dreams of 1995]

It is ok though, because for every post we have saying “so and so is signing” we have the same lads on hand to remind us the person who posted it is a “wannabe ITK”

It’s like groundhog day. Bring on Abebajo…..

I receive me wages in instalments any pay my mortgage in instalments.

Anyone who takes that one in, needs to see the light.

We pay all of our transfer fees at once, but any sales are received in instalments.

No wonder, poor lad doesn't have anything to report!

[Forever Blue]

We also need the obligatory ‘we’ve more chance of signing *insert similar sounding name*
 

Adebayo? We’ve more chance of signing Ashley Banjo

Or someone told him off for actually saying something on his podcast etc earlier in the week, threatened to cut off his access even more maybe?

[B16Rover]

I think they'll flip it this year. 

 

We will be selling say Carter or Pears to the last minute but they will valiantly choose to stay as they believe in the project and want to 'back the boys' and eustace

When you're trying to make a name for yourself on twitter as a genuine ITK and then you claim Dolan for England 😂

When he was singing about the 'Man in the Mirror' was he referring to Alan Nixon?

[MB Rover]

Adebayo is significantly quicker than Gueye

Dunno but this transfer window isn't a Thriller for us. It's getting late in the day and we really Wanna Be Starting Something by now, apparently we've made enquiries but been told to Beat It. Rovers, The Way You Make Me Feel with all this really hurts, but I Just Can't Stop Loving You.

That's Bad.
