    What I believe we need/have heard we’re chasing and how confident I am of us completing the signing.

    Goalkeeper -

    Simon Eastwood (80%)

    Left Back -

    Dani Pinillos (95%)

    Centre Midfield -

    Christoph Knasmullner (50%)
    Looking at other targets, also oversees. Definite one in France.

    Winger -
    Another target in France.

    Striker -
    Most likely will be a loan. Premier League. Keeping tabs on Fletcher as always.

    Personally can’t see anyone new being in the squad for Villa but things may change.

    When things get close I’ll give updates via cryptic clues. Enjoyed last nights. Mostly positive feedback which made it seem more worthwhile than previously

    Excellent to know all this.

    Why do you persist on the cloak and dagger stuff?

    Thanks for This RAC.

    I Reckon the Knasmullner one is less than 50% now unfortunatley.

    Similar situation to Jinty Ceanepeel last season.

    I’m not sure he’s said no yet. No one has indicated that. Probably in his favour to hang on late as other clubs such as St Pauli have had a bid accepted.

    Seems to have been dragging on, but unclear exactly why. His goalscoring record for a midfielder is quite extraordinary. Not sure how good a standard he's playing at, but still. I hope we manage to come to an agreement.

    It’s that or nothing.

    I can’t say names before they’re in the the press it’s not right for me to do so.

    Once they’re on the forum already I’ll generally give more away.

    I also get much more satisfaction from letting people know something is at least happening than coming on here with a stonewall name. I prefer the club to do that otherwise people are in some cases deflated about signings before they’re even announced.

    St Pauli also a second tier side. Not sure how Bundesliga 2 wages compare with Championship wages, but I suspect Hamburg tops Barnsley for quality of life (despite being exceptionally wet and windy!)

    I don't agree with it, but see your logic. Apologies for any previous grief I've given you.

    So you’d rather nothing than snippets?

    Wonder if the winger target from France is Denis Bouanga, sure we were linked to him in summer

    No I'd rather you just said names. You're a pseudonym on an independent internet forum. If you say a name nobody is getting the sack. Instead of the iknowsomethingyoudont attitude.

    Amazing how some people want it their way or no way. I don’t have that attitude. I share the information because I WANT people to know. I like to create a buzz on here.

    To believe I have that attitude I can only assume that you must have a jealous personality. Otherwise it wouldn’t bother you and you may even be appreciative of it.

    On a long contract, doubt we could afford him.

    RAC- Hecky said today that we missed out on a good defensive midfield player this window. Do you know who that was?

    Can't you see that disclosing info before it's signed and sealed risks other clubs poaching our targets.
