He likes to keep his cards very close to his chest and he will do the same in January. I think him saying this now is to keep the media clamour away from him and the club.

Yes that's how I see it too. If the right players are available he'll sign them, even if it's an initial loan.

Who from the first window was a bad signing?
Who from the 2nd window was a bad signing?

That’s completely different to signing someone who was injured, such as Forrester, which was a very strange move.

He was only due to be out for ten days when we signed him. He was also signed last minute when other deals fell through which were not, as you know, our fault. Completely understandable signing and bad luck he had a further injury setback after we signed him. Belly is talking utter garbage, our signings have been pretty much excellent, probably the only one that is taking time to impress is Johnson. My only gripe with our transfer dealings was in the first Clough transfer window when we let Cooke and Maynard go and did not sign a replacement, that was a mistake though I don't think it cost us anything. This season we have just been hit with horrendous luck and some ill discipline. Quinn is one of the best signings we've made in a long, long time. Hawkins, Hewitt, Oates, Stirk and Bishop are also proving to be good signings and the signing of O'Toole was also shrewd business.
