    Get rid of strikers and bring in another defender

    Makes no sense

    Plus add ons for certain criteria and a sell-on clause.

    Glad he's gone because we have to keep the camp positive if we are going to have success this season. Can't keep bad eggs around

    We needed another defender to cover the central/right side as I don't think anyone is confident Johnson will be fit anytime so and if/when he is that he will stay for for a substantial amount of time. As long as we've got a fair price for Young it is right for everyone to cash in for him now and we still have 5 senior strikers.

    Cheap and nasty this window … some top earners I imagine gone KMAC, Young, Stubbs and Gilly. Replaced by cheap loans.
    Thanks Stefan and well done David, Stephen and Ryan.

    Let's hope Cook doesn't get injured.

    So we've let two central midfielders go and lost a striker today. Then we have signed a central defender and a right back. Lads, I think Sharpe has been on the wacky backy here

    Johnson takes a further back seat!

    Now the dust has settled, today sees a pretty strong squad assembled and three players currently not in with a chance of playing leaving the building .

    Onwards and upwards.

    I'm struggling to see where the "extra investment" has been spent.

    Crap end to the window that. Why do I stay up every year, never learn. Have we ever had a successful deadline day? Can’t think of one in my time

    Everything about his stint shows this sh*t show we are.

    Sign promising young player on long term contract.

    Bomb him out of the team after a bright start.

    Watch while he rips it up on loan elsewhere.

    Recall him, then he doesn't feature due to 'injury'.

    Sell him to Stevenage for an undisclosed fee.

    It shows a complete lack of a footballing plan. Almost like signing an injury prone right back, who doesn't feature in pre season due to injury, then signing another with almost no league experience on loan.

    Everything about this club is amateur, disjointed, disingenuous and backward thinking.

    Its very much a 'throw lots of sh*t at a wall and hope some sticks' approach.

    And anyone who still trusts Rupp and Sparks is a fool.

    So, to conclude our window. We've moved on some high earners and brought in cheaper alternatives and apparently, this is “going for it” and moving away from being only sustainable. Well, at least we now have three right backs at the club

    Such a shame window is now closed
    Who'd a thought it would be such a late deal
    No time to spend any of those 6 figures
    Wonder how much will be left come January
