I still believe that the club "might" announce a couple of signings tomorrow morning.

If not then this transfer window has been an absolute disgrace.

At least they have shown a bit of ambition more than we ever did. This was a club that were in administration 3 seasons ago. So much for the Reading way.

I voted "1 signing" in the poll...so close to being right. I am glad I had to work today and didn't waste 10 or so hours getting frustrated. Nice window QPR had though. Maybe one day we'll be saying that about Reading... :|

andrew1957 I cannot help thinking the club will wait until 11pm and then announce 3 signings.

Anything less than that and this will go down as the worst transfer window in recent years. It will mean 10 first teamers out and just 3 in - including two players out that were amongst the best three performers of last season. That would be an absolute joke and so I continue to hope for good news.

Anything less than 3 signings will be a disappointment in my book – although I did vote 0 earlier as that is par for the course on recent deadline days.



Thanks, so it was ten out, I was trying to work that out earlier today. Gosh what a HUGE saving on wages plus a few millions for Kebe and Mapps. The bank balance may just about be in profit, or maybe not.


For the record the ten who had previously been part of our first team squad were: Mariappa, Kebe, Shorey, Harte, Andersen, Carrico, Church, Mills, Tabb and Hunt.

Lots of wages saved and 4-5M inward transfer fees. Just 700K spent on Williams and wages for him, Drenthe and Bridge.

Andersen's on loan isn't he? And I'm not sure you can really claim outrage at three players who were involved not at all, one who played less than 90 minutes, two in their mid 30s leaving. There's only four I'd consider keeping there and two of them are about as borderline as it gets.

Bridge > Shorey and Harte combined. We had too many full backs anyway.
Williams > Tabb & Carrico combined
Drenthe = Kebe
We're fine at CB and if necessary can get a loan.
Upfront is the only clear weakness from that lot and it's not like Noel Hunt or Simon ChuROFLch were going to make a huge difference there is it.

A lot more money for relegated clubs this season.. they can afford a bit more risk

OK. Hearing it's Sissoko on loan and David McGoldrick.

Probably is though
