Lea Siliki’s move to Spain is miraculously back on according to one of the journalists who broke the story yesterday. Pure agent talk to make the other club pay up 

I am shocked

People really need to chill out about this kinda stuff. We miss out on players all the time, as all clubs do, we just don't always hear about it. We've probably enquired about hundreds of players this transfer window, made solid bids for a handful and managed to get a few over the line.

Not many players were ever going to pick us a first option given stature, finances and our manager. I mean if you're a central midfielder and you look at any of our games last season, all you'll see is our midfield being completely bypassed. Who is going to want to put themselves in that position?

By choosing to stick with Warnock for another be year, we've put ourselves in a position where signing exciting, progressive, modern talent is the exception rather than the rule. We have to accept that for now, get through this season as best we can and look forward to a brighter future from 2022 onwards. Getting upset over every player that doesn't want to put themselves in a 90s throwback team just isn't worth it. Onwards and upwards after this season lads, it'll be worth the wait. UTB

Here is my perspective for what its worth.

INS

Lumley - Good early signing on a free.  Probably could have done better but only by paying a fee.  Was important to get a keeper in early.

Daniels - Another good signing.  Think he can challenge Lumley and certainly a more than capable deputy.

Peltier - A good versatile backup.  Free.  Low enough wages.  Could come in and do a job as backup.

Bamba - Underrated signing in my opinion.  Free.  Great to bring on in a tight situation.  Likely will be helping younger players and doing some coaching.  

Payero - Standout signing.  Massive potential. Slight concern at Warnock comments but hope that he is just being realistic about early expectations.

Olusanya - A total punt. Worth it.  No risk involved at all.

Ameobi - Was never sold by this but again was free.  Unfortunate injury.

Crooks - Great signing.  Decent guy.  Has played well so far.  Offers more than other midfielders going forward.

Ikpeazu - Good signing for money.  Workhorse. Doesn't give away half the fouls/offsides Britt did.  Not enough to rely on though.

OUTS (not including those who left at end of last year)

Brynn - Good to go out for experience.

Coulson - Disappointed.  If we had brought another left sided defender in fine.  But we are a body short and he was our player so shouldn't matter if he wanted to go.  Feel Warnock has told him he's not what he's looking for.

Wing - Similar to Coulson in terms of Warnock relationship judging by his comments since.  Happy he is out on loan as he shouldn't get into our team based on current squaD.

Akpom - Pleased he got a move.  He isn't suited to us and we aren't suited to him.  Disappointed in way Warnock has managed this one though.

MISSED OUT 

van Bergen/Muniz - Not sure what we have to really grumble about.  We have lost out to a Ligue 1 French side and the favourites for promotion back to Premier League with the pull of London.  If these players were signing for Preston or Blackburn over us then fair enough.  Our recruitment team have found players who were also courted by bigger clubs.  We agreed deals but ultimately players chose elsewhere and for reasons I understand.

Possibles

Sporar - exciting acquisition.  Whether he suits championship and whether he's a Warnock player is yet to be seen!

Burke - I honestly don't mind this one providing the money is right.  Warnock could be the manager to make things click for him.
