    Forster, El Kadourri and Bangura are three quality signings?

    left back equals Mulgrew inside.

    That's me then, night lads.

    I'm going to sleep and will wake up raging that we haven't spunked half our wage budget on Trezeguet............

    bangura - unproven

    Well after getting our hopes up over this transfer window we have been took the * out of once again it's getting to the stage where i actually look forward to watching Barcelona, Man United & City more than the * we have to put up with week in week out if the spl is the real problem as to why we can't go out and spend some proper * money then i just hope in the next few years something seriously gets changed hopefully with us leaving or a super league being formed.

    And we were promised quality signings unless some of you are frequent watchers of the Swedish and Ukraine leagues these guys are quality and I'm missing something we have not produced that whatsoever.

    I don't know it...hence the question mark. :rolleyes:

    Just putting it out there. We've made a go. Also, the signings in the earlier window were relatively positive. It entirely depends on your expectations. They're good signings for the SPL, no doubt.

    Hard chance of signing the likes of Trezeguet.

    I'm happy with a back-up left-back - we need the cover so Mulgrew can cover centre-back, and this brings better balance to the team.

    Bangura could be good. I'm quietly excited about seeing if he has that bit of flair we have been missing for a long time.

    Wee Shaun leaving wasn't the best of news, I still thought he had something to offer the club.

    However, leaving it this late and not getting an experiences centre-back is a glaring omission for me.

    I would have loved Diawara to replace Sammy, and Rasmussen has no future here, so why is he still here?

    I would say i'm 67% happy!

    Oh yeah, keeping our better players was pretty good!

    Nobody will buy him, selling him isn't just a case of saying ''we want this player gone'' and he instantly leaves and you are several million richer.

    Time will tell. Not overly impressed. Would be much happier if we didn't f*ck up the Diawara deal.

    If Bangura's a bust then so was this window, but I'm hopeful he'll hit the ground running.
