We've been fine in transfer windows for years. The only time we have traffic issues is when we get spikes at the final whistle post-defeat (true story).

You won't need to worry about that too much this season then, UTJ. :scarfer:


By the way, the answer you are looking for is Hayley McQueen.

Thank you to each and every one of you for your continued support of Knees up Mother Brown :thup:
Congratulations UtJ and the team, great efforts!

Nothing can beat the deadline day of a few days before the club putting up on the OS that we were in negotiations with Inter (I think) for Adriano.

2 days later Henri Camara rocked up on loan from Wigan's stiffs. Brilliant.... :lol:

Sawyer by the way....especially the way she fiddles with her pen.

Also worth noting Vaz Te played the whole game in the 3-0 win at Palace and was substituted when both home games were level. Unbeaten when he has been on the pitch

Personally, I think we're a more well-balanced better team with Vaz Te on the pitch.

I'm hoping that Valencia can be a more consistent performer for us in a similar role.

Fingers crossed.
