The "Deadline Day" Thread

[hypochondriac]

Refuse to get my hopes up. I still reckon we won't sign anyone.

This. Surely it's too late now!?

[TWar]

This. Surely it's too late now!?

We found out about Ings 5 mins after the deadline so not yet. I'd say very unlikely now, like 10%, though

Why is it too late? We don't know what is going on behind the scenes. Potentially have until 7pm for a deal and we have no idea how far along any deal might be.

[HarvSFC]

Nothing from Sky Sports, Blackmore, Peach.

 

Surely not?

[Saint Garrett]

No-one has said that we're "done" anyway.

How can you put a % on it when you don't know what is happening? If you don't know then no % can be put on likelihood, that is how probability works.

[Heisenberg]

That doesn't really work... as Hasenhuttl only joined in December 2018 and Wilson promoted this summer. So the opportunity for them to work as a pair overseeing transfers does not go back years.

Do you have new sponsorship? Thought I had u on a 4 year deal?

Normally they say 'Saints all done'... they haven't said that... yet

[Jimmy_D]

It is true that we do normally get an accurate tweet along those lines.

[Appy]

Deals can be announced after the deadline, maybe even an hour or two after it. Fingers crossed.

The rules have changed! Don't tell Steve Grant!

 

If you still want to sponsor me so you can have your logo on my profile... feel free to pay the £5

Using % to represent my confidence. Saying I think there is a 10% chance and saying I think it is unlikely is pretty much synonymous except in the latter I am being more precise about my prediction

And all those posts are to correct another post.

I'm sure we had a deal lined up rather than waiting for Austin deal to be complete...

[the saint in winchester]

[Manuel]

Cutting it fine!

[CB Fry]

Let's make a signing, God willing.

[JustinR]

5% likelihood now.

 

Literally anything can happen in 1.5 minutes

[TWar]

Gotta feel that if it was happening wed atleast have a name by now

Dont worry you’ll live.

[maysie]

5% likelihood now.

 

4.8% by my calculations

[the saint in winchester]

One minute ...

[Saint Garrett]

The transfer window has SLAMMED shut

[the saint in winchester]

In the words of Jim White - "and the window SLAMS shut" .....

[jayrivers]

The transfer window has SLAMMED shut

 

Except we can have up to two hours to finish a deal if it's close

[wild-saint]

The transfer window has SLAMMED shut

but the cap flap is still ajar to let stragglers through particularly if its for a team in the top 6

[Saint Garrett]

Depends if the "deal sheet" has been submitted and accepted...we don't even have a name so seems unlikely.

[Jimmy_D]

Still nothing one way or the other on Saints Twitter.

[Hatch]

They could have sign 5 players, just not announced it to the press yet.

[Saint Garrett]

[Saint Billy]

Find a rope for the Cabbage.

[SKD]

They could have sign 5 players, just not announced it to the press yet.

 

I can tell you with 100% certainty that they haven’t done that.

[Manuel]

Leaky defence here we come!

[Jimmy_D]

Haha, imagine the scenes if we just unveiled Bale out of nowhere now.

 

(Disclaimer: Not ITK. This is just a random thought of my own. This is intended for entertainment purposes only and any hope/optimism is taken at your own risk.)

[disconnect]

"One incoming"!

 

"Oh I didn't mean actually signing, just a rumour."

[shurlock]

No Frenchman then?

[Saint Garrett]

Six deal sheets have been submitted....

[TWar]

Maybe I'm clutching at straws but the lack of an "all done" tweet is promising. Also there are a lot of transfers still to go through not announced yet like Iwobi, David Luiz, Lo Celso ect. so we aren't alone in this boat.

[saint97]

[Donatello]

'Historically', has the Saints twitter feed always been quick to curtail any expectations immediately after the window closes?

Leitch and Peach normally do by now.

[TWar]

So who is this 6 then? Iwobi, Lo Celso, David Luiz, Praet and two others

[jayrivers]

Adam Leitch confirming we have submitted a deal sheet

[Saint Harris]

Dealsheet submited for Saints (Simon Peach on Twitter)
