This thread is not for all of you to rock up into, declare your unhappiness and walk out again.

I call bullshit. Trix - an ITK - is confident. JJ has said we'll be OK. The doom and gloom is outrageous.

COME ON YOU SPURS.

BELIEVE.
Post of the day so far... (y)

Hopeful for some activity today, however with the deadline soon, we should really hear something before lunch time, especially on Berahino if something happens.

Apparently West Ham have reached their loan quota so any rumours of a loan for Ade and Lennon are untrue. They would need to be permanent moves.

This thing about not having much time to conduct business.

Wasn't it made clear that any business we would make, would have been done yesterday, but announcing today?

Surely, leaving us with time (if anything has been done).

After 6, if nothing has be done, then start your meltdowns.

But, think about it a little - we started recruitment earlier than normal, sorted out a major issue last season in getting our dfense sorted (and we actually look pretty strong there).

We've finally bought two quick attackers and got rid of a fair amount - I'd say theres enough to be very happy about personally.

Getting an addition forward and CDM would be great, certainly for a cover perspective, but if we don't it really isn't the end of the world!

In that case, in the interests of blind optimism, I'll stump up £50 per in today, doubled if one of them is Javier Martinez.

Great work A&C and the mods/ ITKs from a long time lurker...
Completely forgot about the Martinez info! Too outrageous to even contemplate!

Must have just happened then as they just signed Moses on a season long loan deal... another player off the suicide watch list! Stay positive you bunch of feckers!! COYS!

We're not the only club that leaves deals to the last minute so there's obviously a reason why some deals happen like this, only cash rich clubs tend to get their shopping done mid summer.
It's this, in a nutshell.

We know that prices decrease as the deadline looms, and that DL loves to pay less. When you're spending £20m+, 1 or 2 million makes a huge difference.

He's also not afraid of following through and pulling the plug if he doesn't like the deal, even if we lose out (e.g. Ade to WHam in Jan).

I'm happy to wait & see what happens...

Either way, I'll be at Dismaland today...

Club can be confident, but we've learned there is long way from that to actually landing the targets. Not trying to paint it black, just saying club being confident is quite far from stamping it.

So as per JJ and Trix, we're still going for Witsel and Berahino, and confident??
Ok, I'll run with that until they say otherwise (or the window closes obviously)...
Come on, let's get this over the line

I believe you are only permitted two loans from PL clubs. They have Jenkinson and Moses. As both Lennon and Ade have one year left on their deals, I hope something can be worked out but it wouldn't surprise you if they forgot about that rule. It's happened before!
