Keener window-cleaner Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I hope we'll see a McFlurry of signings over the next few days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtysanchez Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Hourihane would be a great signing for us and hopefully we manage to get Lansbury over the line. Ideally would like a striker but struggling to see who we could sign, January really is a terrible time to be doing your business. Hopefully Bruce can get some decent signings even if a couple are loan deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carew had one disallowed I believe..... Anyway.... totally OT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted January 13, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted January 13, 2017 I am very unhappy we have not got in at least ONE outfield player by now. Surely we could have lined up at least one player in advance? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fowlersrs Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 If we can get Lansbury over the line and beat Sheffield weds to hourihane then we have some serious midfield punch going forward. Adding Brady would just top it off although I can't see Norwich letting him go, especially to us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep I don't disagree, but I also don't necessarily see it as a negative from a footballing sense. Bring it on. Get some swagger in midfield and start behaving like the big club we keep telling people that we are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also itv reporting transfer embargo lifted at forest. Hopefully we can get both signed early next week. Is the Sun above board? As they say in the Ayew to China story that we have offered Lansbury £40k pw and then say we have agreed £28k pw I smell horses poo poo Edited January 13, 2017 by sidcow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
