Bit of an anti-climax for us then. I hope the addition of Mcgeady is enough to no longer rely on Sougou.
I'm happy enough with the front line for now since Hooper became a permanent. Midfield and defence could still do with a tweak

That's Blackburn relegated then
And Boro probably promoted. At least we don't have to play them again so they can keep beating the rest of the teams around us!!

Still need CM and a striker for me. Reason why is I'd play Lees and Hutch as CB partnership. Even if they aren't the tallest, they are the best. Look at Nuhiu for fook sake the chap is 7foot and can't head for shit so height isn't everything. Then Lees Sasso/Loovens.
Wickham and whoever that Palace chap is Guerdiola.

everyones seeing past the center half ? lees is the only decent one weve got ? xxxx kevin keegans the lot of you !!
but hutch is made of plastic towin? hes got the lot and im with you but you need your center halfs to be made of steel!!
i cant believe all we have got rid off is wiggins ? this was a perfect time for selling shit ! and we havnt done that ? like the post above the wankers we have are quite happy sat in the stands for 5k a week !!

Bus going to Salernitana on loan until the end of the season.
RE: The Push for Promotion - Act 2 Season 2015-16 - consilio - 02-02-2016
Bus has gone as well I think now. To salernitana?
RE: The Push for Promotion - Act 2 Season 2015-16 - Owlkev71 - 02-02-2016
Italian team I think.

Ok, so the transfer window is now closed although there are always one or two late announcements each year. Here is the business we have done in this transfer window:
IN
McGeady - Loan until end of season
Hooper - Signed on 3 1/2 year deal
Bennett - Loan until end of season
EXTENDED CONTRACTS
Bannan - 3 1/2 years
Hunt - 3 1/2 years
Loovens - 2 1/2 years
Hutchinson - 2 1/2 years
Nuhiu - 2 1/2 years
OUT
Bus - on loan until end of season
Wiggins - sold to Bournemouth for 200k
I think its fair to say we are a bit stronger than we were at the turn of the year and definitely a more settled squad with the extensions that were offered. The loan window opens next week, may still see some movement then as well.
RE: The Push for Promotion - Act 2 Season 2015-16 - Washington - 02-02-2016
BBC has Wiggins (or Higgins as reported in some places) as Undisclosed - which fits in with our normal fee statements. Think in his case he just may have never settled in the North and he was only let go once we had Bennett as a replacement lined up.
Presumably CC doesn't see enough from Bus in training since he hasn't had much of a look in. He may also still be in bad books with the club for tweeting about Sougou signing in the summer before anything formal was announced. With a bit of luck he will get plenty of opportunty in Serie B, score a shitload for Romania in the Euros and come back a better player or one we can get a decent (undisclosed) fee for.
I see Lavery going out on loan somewhere again and us possibly bringing in the guy from Watford based on the nicko tweet posted on Owlstalk.
Important thing is at least 7 points from the next 3 games.
Having watched Burnley play in the Cup game I think I'd settle for a draw - they are fast up front and whip in a lot of crosses for headers so without Lees we may struggle unless Hutch is moved back to CM for this game.
I'm doing my limited best to help with FFP funding by taking my mother in law to the Brentford game and also doing a hospitality deal in the Springett Suite for lunch beforehand. Consequently I want at least a 5-0 drubbing of them with a least 3 new contenders for goal of the season. Maybe new player Matias will be match fit and oblige with at least one
