    Good window, kept our best and signed a centre back.

    Mcatee would have been lovely and pleased we want to sign him. Perhaps January will be the time

    Bit bemused we haven’t managed to sign a striker even someone on loan to give us a bit more depth.

    We’ve not lost anyone though which makes this the best window in a while, and there’s always the free agent market if we are desperate.

    If that’s the only move, I’m happy enough with that. Another striker would have been ideal, but over the moon with keeping our crown jewels. Absolutely fair play to the head honchos for keeping the team together.

    Rubbish. Needed a striker. Mcgoldrick is 37 if he gets injured thats that

    Great to keep our best players but the lack of another striker will cost us big time

    Do worry about our lack of proper number 9.

    But overall it’s been a very good transfer window I think. Brought in some good players, brought in some very exciting players and (somehow) kept all of our best players.

    Don’t think we’ll bother again with the free agent market after last time. There’s a reason these players don’t have a club.

    He’s a winger not a striker and tbf he’s just not strong enough. How long before he’s injured again?

    So for a 2nd season in a row we can’t find a striker.and we are supposed to think that being reliant on a 37 year old is sound recruitment policy for a professional club:

    I would like to see more of Leo Farrell. He's a big lad and didn't look out of place against Rotherham.
