I suspect this threa\d may keep going until he leaves! Day 5 and still good news!!!!!

25 days 11 hours 45 mins to go and hes still ares time is counting down

Day 6 now. How long do we have?

Was it last year the transfer window closed on the 2nd or 3rd of Feb due to the weekend/bad weather? 31st is on a Sunday this year so may be the deadline is 1st Feb? Either way we are almost a 5th of the way through the window!!!!

Yeah window closes at 5pm on February 1st

How pissed-off will Tommo and KC be if no one comes in for him?

If no-one comes in for him I guess we'll see how good a professional he is - will he sulk and start to go anonymous in games, or will he knuckle down, play hard to get recognised and go for a good sum in the summer? If he shows his true professionalism it'll impress people more - I still think he'll be gone by 1st Feb ! Long way to go in the window yet, lots of hard negoiating to be done, no-one will want to pay top dollar and it could go to the wire, I guess it depends upon how desperate we are to sell him and how desperate someone else is for a striker !

Jacko is the one who could net the club more I reckon, I sincerely hope that young man moves on for a bundle of cash !!

I have an idea that KC would love to get some money in for Tommo but as with all these things money is tight for most clubs who will be looking for a bargain, as of course will KC be looking for a windfall and a great deal of brinkmanship could ensue. It may go to the wire but I reckon that he will go before the window closes.
