Has now signed for a Turkish side. I see Richie says he's still hoping for two in this week. Fingers crossed!
He’s been saying this for weeks

We've had 2½ months in which we could have brought all the players we needed, and here we are with just over a week to go, and we havent got what we need.
This happens every year, year in, year out.
This stuff about leaving it till late on, is nonsense too

Fortunately our DoF "doesn't do stress" so he's not worried (even if the rest of us are)

I agree . Leaving things this late is risky .

Anyone know what happened last night to one of the players we have signed……..Anthony Georgiou
Don’t think he was part of either XI

Wouldn’t we have more success with signing players if Richie spoke to them instead of Lingy . ?

What do you think about the Goalkeeper situation at the Club Dwarfy ??
Vigs is far and away our No.1 but we have TWO understudies……..Sarge’ and Byrne………it would make sense for both club and Sarge for example to move on………it would release some budget for an area we all know needs strengthening, CM

Sarge I think CDAJ at a National Level club rather than benchwarming as he does now.

I agree. I was quite surprised when Sarge signed a new contract . At his age he needs to be playing first team football on a regular basis but he won’t get that with us . It’s a waste of time for Sargeant and wage for us.

I’d rather we splashed the cash now than panic again in January.

Somebody on here said he didn't play that well the other night . My understanding though was he only played the first 45 minutes .It was hot plus he was playing alongside players he hadn't played with before . I'd give him most of the Dagenham game to help get him up to speed . What position does he play

Forster-Caskey would be a good signing but I'm a little bit concerned about his injury history . However if the club feels he's fit enough now then OK , get him in the building .

I hope it's not Ogie. Anyway I thought the idea was to strengthen our squad , not weaken it .

There is also a tweet on Sky bet League 2 transfers that Aaron Drinan is a target for Dundee Utd who are willing to pay the release clause in his contract to secure his services.
The figure is rumoured to be six figures.

Hes' highly rated by Peterborough fans, lots of comments that he would rip up league 2. You can't make a judgement on a player based on 45 minutes in a team of players he's never played with before. I'm hoping Richie has watched him before and is aware of his quality. He's a skilful, pacey, technical player who can take set pieces. We need someone like that, particularly if Smyth is going to spend more time on the treatment table.
