All a bit of a damp squib IMO.

I just hope that TP is happy with what was achieved but, to be fair you can't help it when the Barrow boys change their minds at the last minute and bring it all down like a pack of cards. I also find Olsson's attitude puzzling as he's already been relegated once.
It's a bit like a house sale chain. Someone changes their mind or can't complete and everyones b*****ed.
Perhaps we should try to avoid this kind of situation in future!!

I think that Darren will be a good acquisition for us. Hopefully he is now fully recovered from his colitis problems.
There's no doubt he is a leader on the pitch and could be a future Captain for us. (Brunt knockers please note)

One small problem is that he is cup tied and can't play against the Hammers but, so would Cole have been had we been allowed to sign him.

I do worry a little about the mindset of Ideye and Dorrans who have both seen a potential fresh start elsewhere snatched away from them at the eleventh hour.

As someone else has already said, fortunately there appear to be at least three teams who, on current form, are worse than us.

Oh well every cloud has a silver lining.
