    Remove the rubbish filled black sacks from outside your front door of your one bedroomed council flat and have a break man. I'll say it again, big keyboards for very little 'men'.

    Darfield-Red is right to bring this tweet to the BBS's attention, irrespective of the meaning behind it. I'd say on the balance of probabilities it DOES mean the deal is still alive.

    So is this your famous source that you used to get info about that Thiam deal? Remind me again what happened with that one? Was it dead in the water as I claimed or did we end up signing him?

    Are you real? We're expecting 3 or 4 signings this week. I got the Potts, pinnock, McCarthy deal for you and you still doubt....

    Give it time.

    Ps. You guessed the deal was dead... You pretended to have a source which is obviously a load of *****. I'm telling you now, just wait it out.

    I'm just still bamboozled by the fact that people think this lad is the answer.

    Hecky also said in one of his interviews this week (the one with the 4 signings that were really close) that one of the deals is being held up by a Premier League team waiting on confirming their squad.

    With the situation surrounding Sigurdsson, Llorente's injury, and lack of depth around strikers, I'm pretty confident that one we are waiting on could be McBurnie.

    100 percent agree with this. I think he's another Conor Wilkinson. I know you shouldn't judge a player before they've kicked a ball but he's a proper, well, meh signing.

    All he ever does is comment on everyone's posts and start abusing or start shooting at people. Like YorkieRed Said, it's posters like him who stop others posting.

    This board has gone down hill big style in the last 12 months.

    Yes I don't get it either. But if Hecky thinks he's the answer / best we can get I guess we have to trust in that.

    Have you heard anything about any other players we're interested in? Anything likely before Saturday?

    I've not heard anything mate other than that a league 1 striker turned us down yesterday. I can only go off what Hecky said on Monday and say that we must be close to 3.

    They're desperately needed aswell if the last 2 games are anything to go on.

    Up the reds!

    Thanks. I just hope we don't end up missing all our targets and start to panic because we know where this will end up.

    I bet Hecky doesn't think he's the answer - the spreadsheet does!

    Looking at his record "meh" just about sums it up.

    It's a definite meh from me but I have it on fairly good authority that Paul is pretty keen on the deal to go ahead.

    All we can do is trust the manager.

    There was no guessing, I actually had info that the deal had fallen through. You're not the only one with "sources".

    I also don't understand all the hype either. He would be a regular for Swanny and totally out of our price range, if he really was as good as hes being built up. But Hecky & co must have checked him out and they must see something in him that suits us, even if it is only going to be a loan.
