I really can’t see us signing Dunne. Is he any good? Don’t really recall how good he was in the few times I’ve seen him play

Transfer Feed, but I heard about it from somewhere else, maybe putting two and two together though if Holding now going to Sheff Utd as they don’t want to pay for a player with 6 months left

It would be insane to pay £3m+ for a defender who is free in 6 months time.
Sheffield United are right to steer clear on that basis and I can’t believe we would even entertain the notion.

Don’t worry, it’s not being reported anywhere that we are even interested

Just seen Swansea have signed Lewis O'Brien on loan for the rest of the season. Thought he would end up somewhere better

Thought he was brilliant at Huddersfield a few years ago but doesn’t seem to have progressed.

Except for Paterson’s short term deal being announced at 8pm tonight, it certainly is complete.

Would have thought if we were interested in a CB and had money we would go in for Darling now to avoid the competition in the summer?

For the record, I love it.

In 6 months time we could well of missed out on the playoffs.

I agree that £3million is way OTT, but maybe Doug is taking a gamble on pushing for the top 6.

And a RB, potentially winger cover if it can be stretched

Not sure Jimmy Dunne is likely to make the difference

It sounds.logical but although he can physically occupy the position he does not appear to perform well there Posh owner MacAnthony assures Coventry City fans that EMC's the real deal

Me neither to be honest, he would only offer more strength in depth, which isn't a bad thing, but hardly the final piece of the puzzle.

On other years if we dont do business on deadline day, do they still say "that's business done" ?

Players progress. There are plenty of example of players playing one position, then another, then another.

Antonio at West Ham went from being a RM, RWB to striker. Or CR7 from RW to LW to ST. Good players find ways to impact the game from anywhere on the pitch and that’s why Haji did well playing LW last season despite his natural position being striker. It’s not a stretch to say EMC can’t play RW until it’s been tried and tested.

Think so. New management tho so maybe new way of doing things. Have we always done a deadline day signing under Doug?

Don't see the hype in it having to be done on deadline day, always find it weird how people (usually the media) act like signings don't count if they aren't done in the last few hours.

I think this Thursday (in time for the Ipswich game) if and only if we do not sign anyone tonight.

Grimes signing makes it a decent window for me. Had we not signed Grimes then it would have been a poor one. Cover for right back or a centre half would have been nice but with players to come back to fitness we look good overall
