Few reasons I didn't. 1. I wanted to be able to do both formations without needing to change personnel - couldn't do that with Bayliss as he's not a forward which Bright apparently is. Bright looked lost on the left but more effective in the middle so I want to see what he can do there...

To be fair, Bayliss was utter utter wank that day. Hit so many five yard passes straight out of play, got dispossessed everytime he tried to run with it and was outmuscled. Went with a few people who aren't Cov fans and only watch the odd game so it was the first time they'd seen him and they...

Agree entirely. "ask not how the players can fit around your system, but ask how your system can fit around the players"

Either you're a dwarf or that's one mighty impressive schlong.

I think we've now got players to fit into a 4-5-1, apart from our main problem of sticking the ball in the net. So I'd still like to fit 2 strikers on if possible. So I'm going __________________Burge Sterling___Willis*/Davies____Hyam_____Mason __________Meyler__________Kelly*...

Don't forget we can still sign free agents. With Chaplin, Hiwula and Baka, Ponti and Bremang looking to push on from U23 plus Bright as an option that is still a few strikers to pick from - it's just whether they can start scoring. I'd have preferred to have had another striker in though. Or...

Surprised we've not had anything at all about Brown. Really thought he might go. Him and/or Camwell.

Wasn't that one - one I saw was against Cardiff.

Maybe JCH isn't happy being on the bench and has asked to leave so MR is happy to let him. We did let him go as a youngster due to uncertainties about his character if I recall. However, if he stay he has to have squad no. 64 next season.

You might be right - I've no idea how tall he is - but he is fairly stocky and if we want a striker to hold the ball up maybe he's seen enough in U23 to think he can free up JCH's wages? Inexperience does count against him though.

Have you ever considered watching the ice hockey? I reckon you might love it. Seen games suspended due to fighting and having to scrape blood off the ice. Look up Andre Payette - absolute fucking lunatic but a legend as well. Once literally waited for the whistle to blow then skated over to an...

I'll be revising this at some point - wasn't expect so much deadline activity!

Did Wakefield and Sterling form a partnership down the right for Chelsea youth/U23? Would be useful if they already know each others games.

There is also Bremang who maybe he feels is ready for a few minutes of the bench as well as Ponti, which is where JCH has been recently. Bit of a risk. Anyway, who's MR going to bring on after 64mins if he goes?

Turning into quite an eventful day. Wasn't expecting this much business. Early instincts say so far it's been a decent bit of business.

Bit of a surprise but to replace with Meyler seems good for us, and good for Doyle to keep playing. We'll see him back in a coaching capacity at some point I reckon. We've lost an Irish terrier but replaced him with one who's bigger and nearly a decade younger. Even if it's only on loan that...

CovLive or whatever have just used "Edwards not dead in the water" on their feed. Bit of a poor choice of words so recently after Sala?

Her teaching career has gone downhill hasn't it. Some scandal at Hogwarts?

Did a quick twitter search of Notts County and first tweet says "an injection of pace".... If that'd referred to Doyle then Notts and their owner were having a competition to see who could tweet the most embarrassing thing....

Yep - like one of those 80's Diet Coke ads. You'd have thought the Chippendales had turned up. One of the women I worked with was actually married to a fireman - cue lots of sliding down a fireman's pole comments
