Oh dear. Hope interest in Benayoun does not signify deal for Ramirez stalling.

Let's play him rush keeper then

Hope it's not Luke Goss. From Bros.

Yes, I think we knew that

Development

You're right. They wouldn't need the rest of the team.

F5 has just snapped

Ricky's lost weight

Really worried he'll choose Liverpool.

Please end this torture.

I wonder when the new manager Cortese is promising these big name players will be announced. Bloody hope not.

Fourth official on twitter also says done deal. Hooray.

Yeeha! Great signing. Get another CB in plus Ramirez and maybe a GK and it will have been an excellent window.

Or it could be Francis Benali.

Well I hope it's Yoshida. A CB at last.

Their unsuitability to the Prem should have been picked up in close season, as it was pretty obvious.

Well, it's not quite the same thing. More like leaving loads of voicemails they can and do ignore.

I think we have two -KD and Fox, with Fonte being a bit of a heel at times.

Still too much of an emphasis on forward players, rather than much needed defenders. Hope we rectify this by the end of the window. Otherwise long, demoralising season.

If you make the subject header 'Stewart Downing...' it is somewhat disappointing to click to read and then discover that those three dots do not mean a wink and a 'he might be on his way' or a similar link to at least something resembling a firm indication of said player but instead indicate a 'what about him then, in the best of all possible worlds, if we could afford it, and he wanted to come to us. And stuff.' It's a bit of a let down, if I'm honest. Which I just have been. Sorry.

what a waste of time. player not even linked remotely. and fee to high. and wages too high. jeez.

which is ironic after three facsimiled posts

We just have the 'fax machine has broken' part to come now.

Is that our new centre back?

At least he'll have more points than the team
