... just kidding gang.
Gutted we couldnt get someone in to help up top, but look at it this way, I would rather not sign someone and retain the cash if the only viable alternative yesterday was taking a punt on a 'Kieffer Moore' type loan (costing us potentially 10-15k a week), not adding anything to the squad (except another body) and potentially disrupt.
We have players who can interchange up that end of the field whilst Coburn and ELL get back to fitness - I think about the Millwall and WBA recent results in particular (Coburn only making an appearance off the bench in one of those).
Put the striker issue to one side, overall a positive window for me.
Some smart loans in, in areas we have been weakened throughout the course of the season, and hopefully a permanent signing ready to take on the responsibility of filling the gap for the loss of the in form Rogers.
Even the Rogers deal is positive, its been allowed on our terms, and its been a while since Boro have played hardball on a sale.
Onwards and upwards you bunch of bellends! (said in a playful friendly way of course)
