A new keeper signing won't play tomorrow because we won't even start looking for one until Friday.

No point asking, i already know the answer. They will look into it.

November apparently

He's better than nobody though, which will be the alternative.

Frustrating is the word your looking for.

We'll dither about all week and end up with maybe one in. Pathetic it's got to this really.

If we turn up like we did in the first half we'll be 3-0 down at half time. Wonder if JE will revert to a 3 at the back for this like he did for the Leeds/Leicester games last season.

I did to be fair. I also said all the other links wouldn't sign, and they haven't. So that must put me on a pretty good success rate. I'm going to stick my neck out and say that Stansfield won't happen too.

Why are you still going on about Stansfield? It's the most ridiculous link we have had in ages. For me we need at least 5 players. GK, left footed defender who can cover CB and LB, CM, Winger and Striker. I will be pleasantly surprised if we get 3 in.

We'll spend all week messing about with Rushworth only to mysteriously find out on Friday that we can't afford his wages.

This is where we need the laughing emoji back.

Wasn't actually a strike, just rail replacement buses between Blackburn and Colne due to railworks over that entire weekend, which conveniently Northern tweeted on the Saturday before saying they couldn't "source" any replacement buses for the Sunday, Yeah right! Ended up getting a taxi to Preston after the game and the train the rest of the way home.

Why though, and from who?

No genuine link.

Another loan for Vale and then maybe a small fee in the summer when we activate his year option seems sensible to me. Germain would be a Vale replacement, we still need a quick winger if he does come in.

Certainly won't be an obligation, it would be an "option" if anything that we won't/have no intention of taking up. Setting yourself up for disappointment here I think.

Yeah, that's what I said!

I sense a huge amount of dithering in the next week or so, and ending up with some really poor players.

Think they will be disappointed. This is the first time in years that the game has been accessible to go on the train, probably since 2005? Bubble games from then up until the game in 2022, and then on that day there were railworks making it pretty much impossible. There will be a good number going on the train I reckon.

The big key is, one is cheap, and the other isn't.

We won't pay his salary, can guarantee that now.

When was the last time we loaned anyone with any real intention to buy?!

Got a feeling you might be disappointed.

That's what they want you to believe.

We came close once, so everyone at the club decided to alienate the manager that did.
