From desperately needing a striker and fullbacks Stoke end up signing a winger which is fair enough because he's talented & a goalkeeper who's also rated but what happened to the areas Stoke are crying out to see improvements on! Atrocious I tell ya

Ince will leave Blackpool on a free in the summer for Liverpool. {Ed039's Note - I believe he is out of contract in the summer but he wouldnt be moving to Liverpool for free as he is 21 years old Blackpool would be due some sort of nominal fee)

Very angry!
Millwall totally inept in the transfer market as usual. Would have to question their ability to sniff out a deal and our scouting network.
I would also like to know what our long term strategy is? If it is to remain in the championship fair enough, but come clean to the supporters instead of leading us on!

As a journalist for the lions I have been waiting at calmont road for nearly 13 hours, and I have already seen smith arrive to sign the loan for the rest of the season and I have been waiting for that star signing and in the last ten minuets he's arrived and spoke to the gaffer, after being released by his club two and half hours ago Louis Saha has signed a 1 and a half year deal.

Bosnian stopper Asmir Begovic has pledged his alliance with Stoke City despite rumours of a potential deadline day move.

The 25-year-old goalkeeper has been linked with European Champions Chelsea, Premier League Champions Manchester City and Manchester United in this window, but the 6ft 5in keeper has committed his future to the Britannia Stadium. !

It has to be time for West Ham to claer out the dead wood if they survive this season. To many dead beats that can't cut it in premier league such as Diarra, O'Neill, Matt Taylor, Vaz te, Collison, Carlton Cole, DIame and overpaid waste of money Andy Carroll. When will Sam actually realise you need pace, flair, guile and creativity in the premier league. I'll manage them but I'd rather have Paolo Di Canio, and yeah, we heard it before but the west ham performance is getting worse. We need inspiration

Just my opinion on the Becchio signing-before we all slate him and say how he isn't the answer just look at his record the last 3 seasons-2010/11 season-20goals! 2011/12 season-11 goals and this season-19goals to date!! Goals orders score goals at any level-the goal never moves! We give him chances he will put some away! Get behind him and the boys and we will stay up!! OTBC!!

Believable1 Unbelievable2

Bechio will score goals at any level given the service, he is not a great all round footballer and he doesn't create much for himself or other players but like I said with good service he will put them away for you. Sad to see him leave Elland Road. garyd MOT

Brian McDermott confirmed that the Ince deal is dead. We offered a substantial fee but Blackpool don't need to sell so turned it down. Don't think he will be going anywhere this window. We are still in for 1 or more players depending on if you believe Anton or Brian. Exciting deadline day.
