Transfer Window Countdown Tuesday..

OPENROAD

So what time does the transfer window close at on Tuesday. Have to say I love watching Sky Sports in the hours leading up to the window closing.

Will we have a busy Tuesday? Are the Big 4 more or less finished their business? Which clubs will be busy on Tuesday? Mods any chance we can get a countdown clock set up on Boards .

Guy:Incognito

Do SSN still have the guy with 4 or 5 mobiles on the desk in front of him gettig all the inside information from all his premiership footballer mates ?

Unearthly

5pm it closes.

My prediction - nothing major happens.

That's Andy Burton He seems to have been moved into actually covering sports events, he did the post-match interviews after United-Arsenal yesterday.

SSN do have a guy doing what he did last year though, but its a different guy.

I thought it was Brian Swanson with his massive jaw.

I saw Sky actually advertising this as a show to watch. Awful stuff.

Nothing major will happen exept a few panic buys from promoted clubs, maybe Harry will take a few more ex-Spurs back to WHL.

Preferred the midnight deadline that they used to have. Not sure Arsenal are going to do any business but I will have hope right up until the deadline.

Sources indicate that Glen Hoddle has been seen near WHL.

Nah he's the "Chief Sports Reporter".

I thought someone around here had a signature with the fella who does the transfer stuff in it?

I forsee the quietest summer deadline day in years.

Feel a bit sorry for the reporters they send to the grounds, particularly if it is a late late transfer and goes beyond the deadline.

I'll feel sorry for the one who ends up at utd

mike65

Someone on another site suggested texting in plausible yet completely wrong sightings early in the day so SKY have to check it out...

Eire-Dearg

Heh, I like it. If a couple of people texted in the same thing then they'd go check it out.

One of my mates reckons this is the most exciting day in English football.
Shows you how far the average quality of football has gone down/how much Sky have messed the whole thing up.

mike65

With Modric out for several months, Spurs will be looking to bring in someone I bet, 'arry loves a deal after all. So who would be a decent name to send in? How about an ex ELP player who would like to return and is cheap and could play left side like Harry Kewell?

just link every big name player in their mid 30s to Notts County

Bentley to villa,
Harewood to anyone, please!

joe123

David Villa to Liverpool. Its going to be really exciting. Silva is still a doubt though. Ah good times....or very sad times really

Would be a sub par replacement for Deegan

It'll never be as good as last year's.

Texting is so much hassle, this is much easier, if one were to partake.

Krankjar from Portsmouth maybe?

Given everyone seems to be desperate to leave Fratton Park combined with the fact that he is probably available relatively cheaply along with 'Arry's previous links, I think it's a go-er.

I'm quite surprised he's still there, has he been injured?

Doest seem to be - has played every minute in the league so far.

Very odd he's still there when so many clubs have sniffed around him previously and he said something about wanting a move last season.

And the fact that Portsmouth are flogging eveything/one

i think we'll see quite a few deals going through between now and the closure

Is there really a deadline today for international transfers, and is the one for transfers between english clubs tomorrow?

Benjani's move to Hull breaks down over personal terms. Dammit.

How many is that now? They must offer poor wages, by PL standards.

Mr Alan

Ah now, you've wasted enough money this summer :pac:

Redzer7

I've Offically Signed Lads

Arsenal.com is pleased to announce that the Irish International Redzer7 has signed a four year deal with Arsenal. The €20 deal has recently been announced on Skysports News, and is sure to delight Gunners supporters in a summer where transfer speculation promised little. The 23 year old will join as a right midfielder, possibly replacing the recently departed Eboue in the position.
Although the move has not long been predicted, Arsenal can be only too delighted to officially announce the signing, and I expect that this will be unveiled tomorrow, or possibly this evening.
The question remains as to whether he will fill the vacant Number 27 shirt for the coming season, as previously announced here.

What I wanna know now is.... How many of you is gonna put me in
yer Fantasy Football Teams? :P

Mr Alan

really? three players in, one is a 4th choice CB for less than 2m who looks capable, and the only other one that has played looks like the buy of the summer.

Mr Alan, don't rise to the bait

Do you blame the americans for buying an injured player?

Mr Alan

nope, Aquilani could turn out to be an excellent signing. i'll wait & see before judging him.

I do however blame the americans for putting zero money, ZERO money into transfers in the last 2 seasons.

Talk on one Spurs site the deal is done for £2m.

I've ignored most of the rumours during the summer, so I'll believe this when I see him holding a Spurs scarf for the cameras.
