Summer 2012 Transfer window thread

Even with Clinton Dempsey coming in, I maintain this has been a poor transfer window for Spurs.

Former Celtic target keeper Sandomierski loaned from Genk to Blackbburn.

This has been a shocker for Liverpool. They were surely banking on signing Dempsey plus at least one other (striker) today. Now it looks like they’ll get nobody in. Combine that with Lucas’ injury and their outgoings and their squad looks well short.

Very astute signing by Steve Kean.

not bad, a decent keeper.

Blackburn > Glasgow Celtic

Correct. Men against boys as Graeme Souness said when the teams last played each other.

Magnificent scenes at the Britannia. What football is all about.

Some lad drinking a can of Carlsberg in the crowd around the reporter at Stoke there. :lol:

Can Tom Huddlestone get to Craven Cottage on time? My sources tell me his tube train has just pulled out of Earl’s Court station. Tick, tock.

Tom Huddlestone is at Fulham Broadway now.

You’d have to wonder how happy Rodgers will be on losing out on Dempsey for the sake of a million odd quid. He obviously wanted him, but seems he wasn’t given the funds to carry it through.

A day that promised so much but delivered so little. Disappointed that we didn’t get Dempsey - he would have offered another option in attack.

What is Liverpool’s first choice 11 now?

Reina,
Johnson, Agger, Skrtel, Enrique
Shelvey, Allen, Sahin
Gerrard, Suarez, Sterling

Subs: Jones, Kelly, Coates, Henderson, Downing, Cole, Borini

Outside of that, the squad is non existent.

Tom Huddlestone is having trouble getting through the barrier at Fulham Broadway station. There’s a taxi waiting for him outside but he’s stranded. This is incredible.

BREAKING NEWS: Andy Burton has shouted across to Jim White that Joao Moutinho is more likely to stay in Portugal.

It’s a crying shame that Andy has been reduced to this and no longer gets screen time.

Huddlestone is in the taxi. But Fulham staff can’t find a pen!!!

I understand that Tom Huddlestone’s taxi is stuck at a junction after the traffic lights failed. He can see Craven Cottage in the distance. This is agonising stuff.

Martin Jol has now found a coloured pencil, I understand. Huddlestone 200 yards away now. it’s close but it’s doable at thi stage, you feel.

would you ever piss off Sid!
