Let's try again.

The velvet glove is off, the bucket of lube is open and the ram meister 16 inch turbopumper MkII with fishhook attachment has been filled with diesel.

I know some have already decided the window is done and it's a bust, but we are still working on in's and outs, and I definitely expect movement on both fronts. there are loads of rumours doing the rounds and players being offered from everywhere. From what I understand right now we are still blocking all this out. We compiled a list of options for a reason and the focus is still on bringing in what we need from that list.

This is no place for restraint and sobriety.

Good to hear the original list isn't yet exhausted.

I always find it amusing that people decide this when the window hasn't even closed. Historically, a lot of business has been done towards the end of the window.

As long as the club are relaxed with their list of targets then its ok. I do wonder though after Ange said a couple weeks ago our top targets were still available if that's still the case now.

This is appreciated. I do my best to stay level headed but even I've been growing a little frustrated.

Super happy with what we've done so far but that will quickly turn if we don't add at least 2 more in positions of need, which we all know we need to do and ideally I would have preferred this had been done by now.

I know it's not easy but I do think this club has a tendency to faff about and it being so quiet recently is perhaps testament to Lange's ability to keep his cards close to his chest. It just doesn't help us be patient when there's no smoke to be looking out for.

Guessing no as Neto went to chavs.
Good to hear ours are still ongoing

I really hope we stay on the "list" and don't jump on the train as fast we get a "good deal" for a player Ange doesn't want. Just because the deal is good doesn't mean it's a player we should get.

Anyway, thanks to all the ITK as always! I know you share what you can and what you hear and I really appreciate it 😊
