I don't think we were as good as a lot of fans thought we were last season. We were fairly poor, especially at home from Xmas onwards and we have now got weaker. Early results and late goals masked last season to look better than it could have been, and we are now weaker

great first third virtually cancelled any relegation worries. Couple of nice games after that but yes we flattered to deceive

Poor transfer window. We’re left well short at the back. That was the area we needed to strengthen in this window and we’ve lost Hyam, Maatsen and JCS and replaced with two new very inexperienced loanees. I think we have enough to avoid relegation but clearly our owners cannot take the club any further.

To be fair that’s probably a decent season any year for us in the Championship

So that’s our best chance of getting a big fee for Gyokeres out the window.

What’s the plan for the next few windows?

Kane dabo means 2 decent rwbs on their day and if adarmola is as good as palace fans told us he will be starting by end of season.

All of a sudden we have a good wing back corp and I expect playoffs

Great deadline day !

Not exactly true. Defensively yes but aside from that most of the starters are still contracted

Bidwell will start all season he was much improved last night and has a nasty streak which a lot of the others lack.

I will be happy with him and Kane for the rest of the season

My thought would be all of them would be sacrificed to rebuild.

Where is your man who was on about Ryan Bennett the other day?

He’s just torn his contract up at Swansea - Possible we bring him in on a free even though the window is shut if you are still allowed to do that nowadays

Yeah... Fair play to him to actually wanting to get out & play rather than sitting on £20k p/w to do nothing.

Stinks of us taking him out of absolute desperation but beggars can't be choosers I guess

Despite the histrionics a good window insofar as we still have the big 3. Side a bit weaker without Hyam but overall a triumph.

The squad is weaker than last year as the Championship doesn’t stand still and Hyam and Maatsen from last year haven’t been replaced.

That said still think we have more than enough to stay up this year but we’re back to the purgatory of 17th placed finishes.

Bigger question is with our ‘big three’ only now decreasing in value unless they tear up trees due to contract lengths where do SiSU go next?

Just can’t see them getting returns so are we back on life support and dropping back to League 1 in next couple of years?

Im not happy but Im comfortable after the window, we have improved in ways and done the opposite in others. We mow have good cover for O’hare in Palmer. We have 2 good LCBs in Doyle and Panzo (certainly improvements on JCS). We lost Hyam didnt replace but I’d back Rose to step up with consistent game time allowing him to get sharp and stay sharp. At the end of the day there are still free agents out there for if we need to improve further with the likes of Ben Foster, Ryan Bennet, Danny Rose etc
