    Offloading the likes of Tilio, Johnston, Forrest and Turnbull is absolutely the right thing to do.

    But why did it take until the last day for this to happen?!

    We should have been proactively pushing them to clubs rather than waiting on offers.

    Not a chance, sure they clearly weren’t being busy the last few months leading into this window. I reckon if Brendan stays they won’t back him with loads maybe one or two decent signings but if say he was to leave and we bring in a new manager they’d back them I think for their first window to appear as the system ahas changed then the next window back to the same old * :31:

    In fairness, we have signed new deals with Kyogo, McGregor, Abada, Hatate, CCV and O'Riley in the last 6 months alone. These new contracts will be significantly improved in terms of salary.

    Which means, our wage budget has gotten even higher. So, getting the likes of Tilio, Kwon, MJ, Turnbull and Ideguchi off the wage budget or a portion of their wages paid is probably far less than the total of the new salaries we have given to the 6 players above. There were rumours that Kyogo went from £15k a week to £25k. McGregor went from £25k to £35k... so these contracts will have added a sigificant amount of money onto the wage bill.

    In terms of the outgoings, Ideguchi and Turnbull will go for about £2.9m. Kuhn cost £3m.

    I have no idea about a payment for Hjelde but I'd hazard a guess we are paying a loan fee of some sort for Idah and anyone else we bring in.

    The Sun saying we aren't in for Burrows.

    So, that's ended that one.

    Btw I’m totally fed up of the narrative that our board is made up of brilliant businessmen.

    We might have a nice balance sheet as it stands but good businessmen don’t settle for good. They want more.

    I’m not sure how much exactly but I believe the CL prize money is bigger than normal next year. Let’s say £50m all in for qualification to groups, TV revenue, gate receipts etc

    Surely the businessmen at our club want that prize money. A chance to make us even more profitable.

    And we currently have a significant financial advantage over our nearest competitors that allows us to invest in our squad to massively increase our chances of winning the league.

    Yet here we are relying on last day loans of unwanted and unproven players to merely fill gaps in the squad.

    The only thing our board succeed at is incompetence and negligence.

    My suggestion to anybody is to expect nothing, that way you won't be upset when Idah is announced near midnight.

    Agreed he has been in Glasgow since last night and has completed a medical he should have been announced by now.

    Predicting we get nothing in then tomorrow morning it will suddenly be reported that we "tried" for Kurzawa and "tried" for a midfielder and "tried" for Kelleher in the remaining hours of the window but missed out

    Because they're all making downward moves they probably wait until the end of the window in case something better comes up.

    Same as us when we try to target a higher calibre of player. They'll hold off until the last minute in case they get an offer from a team in the EPL/Bundesliga etc

    Notts Forest are signing another GK, already have 3 on the books.

    Odysseas Vladochomis who they signed from Benfica isn't getting a look in. I know, another Greek GK, but generally has always been ahead of Barkas in the standings for the NT. Could do worse than a loan to buy.

    So there is apparently no one in world football who is good enough to be an upgrade on Taylor. I hate the * who run this club.
