There has definitely been a shift in budget it seems or the loans have just cost a lot.

I'm not too bothered about things like breaking transfer records.

Good to see some resolve with the interest in Milly and McCann. If its just going to offset losses for the owners and leaves us weaker I'd rather we kept them & tried to tie them down for longer.

Club are working hard to close two deals.

Highly unlikely that any deal regards the sale of the club is completed before the close of the window. Apparently it's past the feeling out stage, might hear something after the close of the window.

Why does this make me think there is something tangible in the potential sale of the club?

Interest in Milly has cooled
Seems a few European teams thought they could get him for a steal but our asking price took them by surprise now they have backed off

If Armstrong is going out anywhere on loan it will be to us, that is pretty much agreed, only question is will he be allowed out on loan ?
Will go down to the last day as others have said.

We have enquired about a number of strikers (Cannon being one) but appears our budget is next to nothing so leading to a lot of dead ends. Club working hard to come up with ways to get someone in without a huge (or even modest !) initial outlay. Ideally want a loan to buy. Possibilities should open up as clubs become desperate to offload people as the window draws to a close, could either be an eventful Monday or we could fail miserably !

Would like to move Keane on but thats probably not an option due to his current fitness, still interest in McCann but as per Milly club see him as a valuable asset and would rather keep hold for now unless a daft bid comes in, Whiteman also subject to some informal interest but same applies with him. Recent loan move for Lindsay from a championship club has been flatly rejected.

All of which says to me we have finished our business.

Definitely not that type of midfielder. Goalscoring midfielder that also plays up front and out wide. Completely opposite to Armstrong

Like comparing Mads and McCann

But more importantly is going from a loan to a 2m signing 😂

So I assume if Armstrong doesn't happen, then we make do with what we have ?

We have to knock back any interest in Lindsay because we don't have an immediate replacement for Hughes should he become unavailable. If that does occur then Gibson has to move across to the left in which case Lindsay steps into the centre. I still find it a bit odd that we seem to have shown no real interest in bringing in a new left-sided defender since it is the one position where replacing the current first choice requires rejigging the team elsewhere rather than just slotting in another player - arguably it is a greater need than another midfielder when you consider that Potts and Brady will both presumably become available within the next few weeks. Anyhow it looks like nothing is going to be announced today - just maybe Okkels' departure - so we may well all be hanging on here as the clock ticks towards 7.00pm, which I think is the cut-off time, on Monday.

Vukcevic?

Apparently we were interested in Lowe at Sheffield Wednesday but admittedly, that's a while ago now and Vukcevic seems to have been the bargain alternative.
 
Wonder if the Southampton midfielder is an option. In saying that we know that we aren’t very good at looking at other options. Hopefully our so called new recruitment team can do a better job than the previous ones.🤣🤣

Lowe hasn’t looked recently like his former self
