There is a tatty travelodge on the edge of town. Must be holed up there.
10 min GUEHI, 11,20 min. ISAK
Apparently 3-4 premium players were offered to us this week if Isak does not happen. But we are still very confident about Isak.

Guess the premium players…..
If one of them turns out to be Rasmus, I will be very disappointed.
Isak 11, 45 min.
He is preparing the Newcastle fans for a deal around 120 - 130 Mio if Liverpool comes back etc. Selling Isak will be the best for everyone etc
Edit
Short version
Might not be the Travelodge. I think it might just be this place with its three Michelin stars and fourteen bedrooms.
It’s also Indykalia so it could also be made up… though nice bit of Tourist promotion for Ormskirk.
Is he on a boat bobbing up and down?
34.5 hours left…tick tock
I can’t imagine anything happening with today’s match on. I would imagine that if anything is going to happen, then it will have been all sorted barring the signatures and we will have the announcement around tomorrow lunchtime.
If not, tomorrow could be mental. I hope someone has checked the fax maschine.
That we have one?
In terms of the drama, I wonder has this been the best window we have had?
If nothing is going to happen, I’d prefer the club to say so publicly, so I don’t waste tomorrow watching ‘Deadline Day’ on Sky for twelve hours.
In terms of drama, the one were Torres left and we panic bought Carroll has to be up there.
In terms of quality, we can only really determine that at the end of the season. Shankly signing Yeats and St John in 1961 when we were still in the 2nd Division has to be up there for sheer chutzpah.
I thought this but then do we not want to push the Guehi deal along so he doesn’t play tonight? I’d certainly hope that’s what we’re pushing for anyway now we’ve lodged a bid and don’t seem to be too far apart.
Isak does feel like it might go down to the wire and depend on Newcastle getting their second striker in. Looks like Wolves are keen to resist advances for Strand-Larsson and Brentford are desperate to fleece them.
I was thinking the same about the Torres/Carroll window and that this one can only be judged fully with hindsight but then didn’t write it to keep the post short…
This window is a bit like watching a re-run of Only fools and Horses - you may or may not remember the ending but you know it’ll be funny and light hearted and you know you’ll come away happy. The Torres/Carroll window was more like the Wire, set against a dark back drop with desperate characters and it never felt like that there was going to be a happy ending. Maybe that’s just me.
The transfer window really should be closed at the end of july, there’s always some of this shit going down at the last minute anyway.
It would be hilarious if one of them is Sesko!
