Basically Afobe 'done deal'.

Sanchez has to be on the plane that gets into Heathrow at 6:30am Friday. If he doesn't show, we are giving up and will look elsewhere.

Yes. The most recent one I can think of is Tuncay.

I don't mind reading Nixon's transfer news because it's the only constant news we get and he obviously has an ITK link with the club

The more interesting question is how many players who we have signed since Coyle has been here were not first seen in a Nixon article in the Mirror or the People. I can't think of many/any!

Sanchez a no-show apparently according to AN. Time to move on and stop wasting our time.

Marc Iles from the BEN said he was in the UK yesterday and was undergoing a medical. Let us see who is correct.

Not quite what Malc says, but under a Marc Iles byline in yesterday's BN:
Colombia international Sanchez flew in yesterday to discuss a three-year deal at the Reebok and the club are hoping to finalise talks and complete a medical over the next 24 hours, despite reports of last-minute interest from Sam Allardyce's West Ham.

Oh it was in the BN. However, if Nixon is saying he hasn't pitched up at all, you do wonder where Iles (who despite mocking he receives, usually doesn't print anything till its concrete) got his info from that he had already arrived?

Either way, still need a big bastard from somewhere in midfield!

Yes. Fair cop. I wrote that from memory and that is not as good as it was.

Been chasing this Sanchez for 7-8 weeks and it looks like a no go. We really do have a habit of this, the season starts in 2 weeks and we still lack a defensive midfielder and probably need loans for a striker, maybe a midfield player and a defender.

We are getting Afobe for a loan striker are we not?

Agree we need a big bastard in midfield. But generally we're in pretty decent shape squad wise, IMO. Virtually 2 teams can be named, so cover for every position, just about. Not bad.

At right back where we have 1 x crock + 1 x kid. Is that your idea of that position being covered? Because for my money that amounts to us not having a right back at all!

Yeah, with all the cash at our disposal, it's a wonder we don't have 4 players for every position.

Why is Mears classed as a crock?
