Then probably moaning that we didn’t buy him Will be interested to see how the young lads get on in league one. Shows we’re in a better place depth wise in short/medium (not immediate) term than people realise. Andrews was probably earmarked at that level as well before sheaf went. Are we a...

and we still ended up with Sean Maguire

A lot of deals seem to drag to today for various reasons, everyone waiting to see what they’ve got left before making decisions, agents holding out, prem clubs holding back on loans to see who they might need to keep etc. frustrating but is what it is sure if the sheaf offer had come in earlier...

I reckon one or two fell over today. Also sounds like sheaf was very last minute. Right call to sell still (for him and us). Will be interesting to see where a lot of the young prem lads have gone out on loan

Really good signing though. Chuffed with that.

P/T Apprentice by the looks of it

Thought it was that twat when I flicked over. Sky sports has totally lost it.

Don’t say it !!!

Yep. Just to give some extra hope… Can signings be made after the deadline? While the window shuts at 19:00 BST, deals can still be announced after the deadline. That is because clubs have a two-hour grace period to complete a signing if they have submitted a deal sheet ahead of the deadline.

Some very short memories. Didn’t we win four on the bounce with Allen playing deep central role just before grimes landed. I think Eccles will come back better this season as well. Our squad strength is far stronger than it has been in recent years, all are owned bar Rushworth. It would be good...

Didn’t he play for u21s last week. Guessing back after break

was hoping the quality might ramp up today…sadly not !

If he takes a pay cut I’d have him back for £2m but we can’t pay him what he’s on otherwise we’d have done that before (and without a £2m fee !). Would be a great squad addition but also doubt he’d want to come if he wasn’t confident of regular first team place

He’d do a job. If Rudoni or Grimes get injured for a prolonged period that’s a different matter but that’s because they’re integral to the whole way we play. Not sure anyone we’d get in would replace them like for like unless maybe a prem loan. I wouldn’t have trusted sheaf to do that job...

4D chess by king Eccles coming off the bench and filling in is definitely at that level. He’ll always do a job for the team and I’m hoping that time with Lampard/coaches he’ll step up even more

probably the right idea with the cash they’ve got available. Most other clubs cant run things like that though, could be financial suicide

Maybe why poor Matty Grimes had to run himself into the ground yesterday, no way do you put sheaf anywhere near the pitch if there’s a deal being discussed

Haha, was just about to say ESB will be the one offering handies all round ! Does sheaf pass a medical though ?!

It’s on the app so think you have to set up an account (I had an old one as was a subscriber for the boxing when it first started…then they started ripping everyone off). Just don’t sign up to any subscriptions ! Live games but also then available to watch back

Just flicked it over to hear the co-commentator call it ‘the derby of dross’
