I think Doug could be excused just about now for not signing a back up midfielder.

I mean, he’s just brought the stadium so he gets a bit of a pass…..

And it looks like sold BS for 3 times his value….. so…..

Buying the stadium is as much in his interest as it is ours. Uniting the club and the stadium means he can make more money when he eventually sells us. To think he done it solely for the fans is naive.

Wolf done. Squad number 26. Still a chance Raphael is going out on an as yet unannounced loan.

Ipswich web site updated.

Ok that is a tease it is only a youth player but announced after 19.00, so there is still hope.

Well as the window slams shut for another summer, a dissappointing effort by all involved. A real opportunity to push on and really attack the league, but instead we took a total passive approach which in effect looks really disjointed and without much direction.

Nice to see I was proven right against all the nay-sayers again who were insistent on telling me we would have a flurry of business in the final week, only to sign 1 player. We sold our captain, for a fee that I agree we couldn't turn down, but failed to replace even with a cheap loan.

We did buy the stadium, which some people are using as cope. Bling must be commended for this, but there was no downside to buying the stadium really as it will only strengthen the value of his investment. Purchasing players who are much more likely to depreciate in value was too far for him though.

The lampard effect and his contacts in football non existant.

We are desperately short in the wide forward area, and back up CM's. Those players we had earmarked as those to upgrade have actually become crucial to us as backup now which is worrisome.

After hoarding a whole load of reactions and boosting my post to reaction score, I will now be taking some time off here for a few weeks it was good to engage with you lunatics again.

I am off to play football now, I'd imagine Bling may try and sign me as CM cover.

You pretty much wrote 6 paragraphs very positive. (Some towards yourself and some towards yourself more).

The one that was negative was “the Lampard effect”.

So what exactly is the so called “Lampard effect”?
Is this something you came up with or just following a narrative?

Good luck in your playing of football tonight but as a team player I’d make you last pick every time, all the time.!!

What a silly essay to write (it was the word worrisome that lost me). ‍♂

Lampard is averaging 2 points a game is he not?
I’d ask Sky blue talk to find Wally but I think we already found him.

Feel like the transfer comms have gone downhill, used to get teases and all sorts.

nothing will beat the summer transfer window after we sold Gyokeres

We play Eccles. Or we play Allen. Or we play Andrews. So when you say the squad is painfully thin you mean we’ve lost one injury prone midfielder?
Click to expand...

Injury prone or not he made 29 appearances last season. I don't want Allen and Andrews making 29 appearances between them so let's hope Grimes, Torp, Rudi and Eccles stay fit the whole season.

12, 14 (as of today) and 16 still available, amongst others. It'll do my nut if he gets 26.

Already thinking about potential freebies as I’ve already said and the below are all free agents.
Oxlaide-Chamberlain
Dele Ali
Ben Mee
Tom Lawrence
Christian Erikson
Patrick Bamford
Would be more than happy with Oxlaid-Chamberlain and Lawrence on the bench. Experience to see out games and cover injuries.
You’d hope salaries wouldn’t be too bad, almost like a couple of Jamie Pattersons.

No chance. The only affordable one is Tom Lawrence.

They might have applied for a 9 o'clock extension to dot the i's and cross the Ts.

If you know it's done why are you getting your knickers in a twist sweetheart .

Perhaps he plays the posting game a lot better than you

In the past the Club has put out “no more business this window” messages before the deadline.

Not had that so hopefully that means something brewing.

Simms is critical now. If he can even look half like a 4 million pound striker it would be a massive win. If he doesn't, when Haji either gets injured or has one of his inevitable slumps we are left with BTA and HGVEMC which doesn't fill me with joy

I think we would be in a pickle.

In that event I would probably try Torp - or possibly Rudi - as a false 9.
