Here we go again FFS :(

OK, you know how this rolls.

This year, please bear in mind the SC affiliates if you intend on buying anything from Amazon. Just click on the affiliates banner, it'll take you straight to Amazon and from there, SC gets a small cut which comes in handy when it comes to paying for the server costs.

I wonder how long it'll be before I lose it in here. My money is on around lunchtime.

Mrs A&C was looking at herself naked in the mirror last night and she said to me, 'I look horrible, fat and ugly. Pay me a compliment.'

So I said 'Your eyesights fucking spot on'

Jesus, ITK time again.


Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in...

Who is Hudson Oboi btw? Never heard of him.

Are Chelsea going to play ball over hudson-odoi though? Because quite frankly after Sissoko the tea lady will be banging them in with a decent pre season with our Poch.

18 year old LWF plays for Chelsea. He looks a talent and scored in their recent Europa game which was his first competitive start I believe. He has 18 months left on his contract and they really want to keep him unsurprisingly. If you have a minute go and watch Oboi vs Arsenal on YouTube, it will give you and idea of his talent.I would be amazed if we manage to get him.

Hudson-Odoi is in a tricky spot with his club.

He hasn't signed the contract they offered him in the summer. They promoted him to the first team, but this means he's not playing in his age group regularly anymore (5 times for the u23s) and isn't playing very much at all for the first team. He's in the Guardian (and others, probably) today saying play me or lose me. 18mths to go on his current contract.

Chelsea are not going to sell hudson-odoi to us. They won't sell anyone to us and it's the same the other way round.

He's a big strong lad which always makes me wonder if that gives him an advantage at that age that wains as he gets older.
That said I do believe he is looking at his future and may well not see one at Chelsea, he'll know he won't play for the first team so to get games he'll have to go out on loan to wherever Chelsea send him.
If he is looking for a top with whom he'll get a chance Spurs are an obvious option, I too would be very surprised if Chelsea allowed him to come to us but he is young so he could quite easily not sign a new contract, see how he is treated over the next year and if Chelsea's promise of game time doesn't materialise then he could start talking to other clubs around this time next year.

Is the Itk definitely about him? Doesn’t seem a likely buy for so many reasons. The bad relationship between the clubs, our quality strength in depth at AM and his seeming wish to play now amongst them.

Very unclear IMO - would love it to be the case but (a) not sure it is and (b) if it is, I just can’t see it happening, especially not in Jan

I don't know if it's because it was deemed off-topic, but my reply asking if it could be de Ligt ("delighted") was quickly deleted...

On COYS? Off topic posting usually results in a lifetime ban. I'd be checking my access.

"Nick likes Hudson-Odoi" but fuck that for a game of soldiers, it's obviously a clever play on words instead.

Jesus Christ. Get out the pair of you, have it away on your toes, while I'm still being nice.

Could I have been more optimistic? Lunchtime my arse :D

Is the window open early this year?
According to the first result I looked at after a quick google search, which TBH, it wouldn't have killed you to do lazybones.......:D
When does the January transfer window open?

The window will open at midnight on Tuesday, January 1, 2019.

When is deadline day for the January transfer window?

Clubs have until 11pm on Thursday, January 31, 2019 to complete any transfer dealings
