    Maybe I'm choosing to stay positive if they don't do the business needed I will be joining in giving the powers that be the flak they will deserve. Until Saturday morning I've no idea as I definitely aren't ITK.

    My top tout would be Joe Taylor on a season long loan from Luton (better still if permanent). Complements well what we already have, being a fox in the box type and quick on the break. Second would be Davis Keiller-Dunn, for similar reasons to Taylor, but he will give us goals from midfield to add to Phillips'. If we have somewhere near what we wanted from WBA for Styles, we should be able to get closer to Mansfield's evaluation and that would in itself be a good club statement. The best loan youngster would be Will Lankshear, who would need to be talked into it by Matthew Craig. The others are well behind these three for me. Ennis would need to show that he actually does want to come. If he comes with the attitude that it's a drop in division and he can't be bothered, he would be another Leya Iseka. This needs to be done by interview, rather than statistics. The stats will show that he can hack it at this level. The interview would show if he could be bothered. I am not up for Faal, unless her clearly wants to come. Similar reasons as Ennis. Taylor and Keiller-Dunn are tops for me, along with Lankshear.

    I'd be astounded if we signed Taylor, even on loan. Given Huddersfield have been heavily linked, I can see him going there. I expect us to sign DKD who is certainly different to what we have already, as is Faal.

    I still have a funny feeling we get Taylor.

    I may be wrong and look daft (would not be first time) but I just have a feeling we will.

    Hudds have signed someone else already who has scored in both his games for them so far, so they appear to have moved to other options.

    I think he either comes here, or stays with Luton for season. Unless some mad offer goes in for him from someone else late in the day for some club doing a late panic buy.

    Are we looking to? No

    Will it go down to the last hour? Probably

    That's the issue with the transfer window.

    If it does there's a fair chance we'll end up with no one.

    Fixed it for you.

    I honestly don't get why people think the club are deliberately leaving transfer business late when it's the final week of the window, and every single club in the league will sign someone in these next couple of days.

    Probably because i don’t trust the people signing these players to provide us with anything better than what we’ve got and I’m waiting to be proven wrong.

    But that's a different issue altogether.
