Second attempt at posting a link. Hope this one more successful!

Interesting article but we still need to get some more deals done and for me the biggest thing is that the whole window thing needs changing. It has become a farce and just suits the biggest clubs in Europe (and even then only a few with the deepest pockets) Yes it creates a daily programme for Sky Sports News (Transfer News) plus a Deadline Day fiasco for that mad Scotsman. Can't see any other pluses for anyone.

I suppose Sky would argue they pay the money and therefore they are are as important, if not more important that the clubs. Just absolutely ridiculous.

Well said Yarm. It is a circus.

Can't agree more. As for that Jim White's voice, it just grates on me!

Jim White, the inhuman megaphone.

A large chunk of our spending, over 7 million, went on Yuning Zhang who we won't see for 2 years. It says we have made nothing from sales. Surely we got a fee from Blues for Gardner.

I believe he went for 1 million of our English pounds.
