The January window

Although, didn’t we sign Rhodes, Winnall and Fox in January? Perhaps that is good enough reason to be more cautious That some of these leaks appear to have substance, we can assume that a forward is a priority Not sure what to make of the Rhodes situation, one swallow and all that His bad games for us outnumber his good games, by about 50-1 

His hat trick was timely though, whatever happens

 

We did indeed but apart from this window and the first January Window that both Mandaric and Chansiri had we haven’t been busy in January.

Seems to be a bit of a rumour coming out of Bristol we've been tracking ex toytown striker Clarke-Harris along with a few other championship clubs. 

Scored a load of goals last year and has 8 in 11 games this season according to the page I was reading. 25 so not too old either.

Can't believe he's still at Peterborough, contract expires in 6 months, get a cheeky bid in.

Peterborough chairman has said he won’t sell in January as the money they will get for promotion will be more than they will get for Maddison in January. Also hopes Maddison will sign a new deal if they go up

Someone would have to meet the 2.5m buy out clause then.

We will need a new centre half because one we have is signing for a top 6 Premier League club in January. 

 

Fookoff they can't have Thorniley.

Thought he looked a decent player against City last week 

Didn’t see that game, and to be honest, other than him being considered one of their better players, I don’t know much about him Actually thought he was a striker, but apparently not Went for a Christmas drink today, and most of the guys are Oxford fans, and they’re really worried he will leave

Under normal circumstances this should be a very interesting window for us. I'd love to think we can somehow add a bit of quality to firm up our promotion push but there are obvious unknowns.

 

In the first instance, are we even permitted to make transfers. If we are fighting the EFL theres an argument that we should still have free reign, otherwise we are effectively guilty until proven innocent. On the flip side, the EFL embargo'd us pending our financials, it seems more than possible they may have authority to do so after receiving them.

 

Beyond that and assuming we are able to deal, it will be very interesting to see if DC still has enough enthusiasm to throw himself back in to spending.

 

I think we have to hope that the team who oversaw our last transfer window activity and Monk have already identified 2-3 well priced players that can improve us.
