Deadline Day

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Nothing is going to happen, is it?

Don't worry, there's still time for Dougie to dust off his contact book of players he's either played with or managed.

Like Medo?

[a1]

what about this jeremy boykiller (sp?) dude that looked stat great from a coupla month back ?

lolloway tried for him too.

i forget his name so thats not helpin'. i'd guess he were african.

[Riviman]

I don't expect any sort of deal going through today, best we can hope for is a loan or two, IF we can off load some, when the loan window opens next week.

[Armchair Wanderer]

4:48pm

This is a bit like an awkward silence on a first date as we wait for something to happen.

I wish I could bring some news your way from Wanderers.

I've lived through some meh ones, and one or two good ones, but I have never been so disheartened at a transfer window closing day as I have been at this one.

It is all a bit shit isn't it?

But then we've no money to spend at all. Frankly the next few years do not look very appealing as a Bolton fan. Cheaper players, replacing cheaper players. Income going down.

I'm not entirely sure what there is to look forward to?

Fvcking hell you don't half talk shit

Would love to have seen Palace's wage bill fees paid etc and they went up probably. And cheaper doesn't necessarily mean a shitter player

There is quite a strong correlation between wage bill, transfer spending and league position. It was studied.

But that aside, of course there are examples of clubs doing well on the cheap. But how many examples are there of premiership clubs going down struggling for a few seasons then going back up without an influx of cash from new investors?

I'm struggling to think of many. I just fear that we're on the slide now. Hope not.

There's still enough inefficiency in football transfers for cheap players to be good players. More so in the Premier League, but also true of any league in England, transfer fees and wages can almost be decided by the media, as clubs are then pressured into signing players or paying big wages for no apparent reason.

I thought you were writing a transfer post to the tune of Lucille by Kenny Rogers, just to cheer us up.

I'll think about it, although TD has more experience at writing than me...

[DJBlu]

The one to go will be Mr Wheater.

No one wants Knight so he's staying.

A right/left back will be brought in and Baptiste will be partnering Knight.

My prediction for today.

It begins.

[ChrisC]

Shane Long off to Hull apparently. Cracking player.

Shane Long off to Hull apparently. Cracking player.

Aye, but he's not likely to drop down a division for us. That's not meant as a criticism, Chris

[Lost Leopard Spot]

Can I just swear now... Can I?
I have got to the point where I realise I have no influence but can be bothered what is happening, and therefore I'm going to do an ostrich and bury my head. Nighty night boys and girls.
