Tekel Towers » DUFC Deadline Day Thread

Tek · 30/8/2016 11:48 pm

Normally this is a day of pain, dread and bitter dissapointment for DUFC supporters.

Let's hope tomorrow bucks that trend and we get in a Centre Forward. A proper one. Not a 'midfielder-cum-winger-cum-false no. 9' kinda 'forward' like Erskine, Dow, Anier, VDV, Cammy Smith, Obadeyi etc etc etc.

No, a proper Fuck off big bastarding goal poaching, penalty box Striker.

A right hand sided winger would be great too if we're being really greedy (well we did go for GMS.... so).

Other than that Donaldson finding a new club would complete a very good days work.

Probably be a complete shiter as per, all that said and done.

Bring home ciftci pls

Beardy23 · 31/8/2016 5:48 am

does any loan deal need to be done today?

bowers · 31/8/2016 5:54 am

Hoping to see atleast one player move today hopefully 2 as in Durnan and Donaldson. They go and we sign the target man striker we so much need and its a happy wednesday on that front.

Andy · 31/8/2016 7:15 am

I think we'll see Durnan away and a couple of youngsters out on loan.

Followed by a young striker on loan from a decent side in England, Knoyle type signing.

The tully saying united unlikely to sign anyone today.

Doesn't mean we can't sign anyone after today. Deadline day is also when players are freed to allow them to find other clubs outwith the window

We are being linked with Tony Andreu (Norwich. ex Hamilton)

This would genuinely be a unbelievable signing, he's fucking brilliant

Tek · 31/8/2016 6:31 pm

What a signing this would be Lads.

He was fucking terrific for Livi and
more recently Accies in the Premiership.

Norwich fans don't seem to rate him but he actually scored a hat-trick for them just LAST NIGHT in the Checkatrade Cup (their equivalent of the Irn-Bru Cup).

Pull this off and it's a potential league winning signing.

Trying not to get my hopes up till I hear something official though.

Andy · 31/8/2016 8:49 pm

Would be very surprised to see this.

Not exactly what we need, i.e. a striker, but a better player than most currently at Tannadice so a welcome addition if it pans out.

Unbelievable!

Even more impressive that this news comes from the future....

Great signing. Very impressed with this if true.

Pleasing (if true)

Add this to the two defenders and bearing in mind the dead weight still hanging around I'd have to say that the club have delivered pretty well transfer wise

Did you edit "if true too bud?"

Also, how does it work with englandshire having an 2300 deadline and us a midnight?

Is that right? Feel like i5m loosing the plot.

TheShed · 31/8/2016 9:09 pm

Deadline that matters is our one. It'll be a good signing, would imagine he'll play up top, maybe not an out and out CF, but def a goal scorer.

Arabnophobia · 31/8/2016 9:16 pm

I mean how does our one link in if a player is coming from england to Scotland with the 2 different time limits bud.

Andy · 31/8/2016 9:19 pm

Deadline is for signing not selling club, it's about registering a new player.

Like McGowan to China, didn't matter that our window was closed.

Arabnophobia · 31/8/2016 9:21 pm

Thanks Andy.

Andy · 31/8/2016 9:23 pm

Fucking hell. Andreu has signed.

Well played United, some signing.

Billy_Hainey · 31/8/2016 9:25 pm

Just popped up on fishul.

Arabnophobia · 31/8/2016 9:27 pm

Some goalscoring record!

TheShed · 31/8/2016 9:30 pm

Question now is will anyone leave with a view to securing 1st team football elsewhere.

Don't mean lawwell making his 6 monthly call to ST this time at least.

SuperMario · 31/8/2016 9:32 pm

still feel we could do with a target man! I imagine our business is done atm though

PatReilly · 31/8/2016 9:33 pm

Ten players that is Ray's brought in now. Quite a big turn around, and it won't have come cheap.

I expect much better results, immediately.
