    I've added a word that should make this move make sense.

    And one of the loans is missing. I thought Burrell was a strange signing, Pereira makes it look sensible

    The Ipswich lad turned us down most probably then.

    Hard to say if he's any good from the stats and brief mentions in match reports

    Agree. If it was someone coming in that looked like a real number 1 from stats/recent appearances then I'd be behind that. This lad looks to be back up from recent times. In fact, looking at his record he looks to have pretty much a similar record to Hornby when we signed him.

    Both our main strikersvare injured, both the back ups are marginally better than north west counties league one standard. What do we do ?

    Sign the invisible man and a goal keeper.

    Couldn't make it up.

    It's going to be an interesting next eight days. Who knows, there may be some genuinely good signings. Proper proven striker a must. Or not...and then....the shit show slops on.

    The only thing I’m clinging onto is blind faith and the fact the last few days of the window are the busiest.

    We are absolutely desperate for a quality forward recruit. As others have said, we’ll end up with a Samuels or Burrell

    If we do, I'm done for the season unless it's a stroke of genuis that actually works

    Same. I keep getting ready to sack it off. Then we get a win and im lured back in. But not prepared to invest the effort to see us finish midtable. Seeing us slide this year has been painful.

    The Ipswich goalkeeper was never our number One target in this window but wasn't given a name only that they would be with us before Tuesday.
    Also ROD is leaving this window no idea were he's going, watch this space

    No, Foggy, to be fair, Adams reckoned there would be a signing before last Saturday and in his post match comments he said it had been held up and would probably be early last week. So, whichever keeper does sign will not be our first choice and the one we thought we'd be signing 9 days ago. Things have moved around.

    lol

    But seriously, imagine if Cook gets injured given he's not even fully fit right now, we're really up the creek without a paddle... I can't believe how badly Lavery has done considering he's an experienced player we've supposedly chased before, the guy has been a non entity.

    The deal for the keeper has already been done according to the pompey manager, so it's not as if we just decided to sign him. What's more important is the replacement for Angol and the additional striker we were looking for. We can't rely on the back up strikers who've scored less than 5 goals between them all season and are no use in the lone striker role.

    Walsall poised to spend £50k on striker Devante Rodney today in time for tomorrow.
