    Postcode v geography 👍
    North of the river.

    Postcodes are derived from where the area's original main delivery office was located.

    Is it my imagination/perception, but are British players signing to European clubs much more than they used to?
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    Certainly feels that way.

    The river doesn't run in a straight line, it goes down in a south westerly direction ergo when it reaches Stamford Bridge, it is SW London or W London at most, definitely not NW London hahaha

    Crumbs. I ve got the BBC transfer reporting on In the background. I seem to be disagreeing with everything Don Hutchinson is saying.

    Thank goodness they didn't send you out to map the world in the 19th century 😄😄

    Billy Gilmour from Brighton to Napoli for £12m. Doesn't that seem like peanuts?

    Yup.
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    And now there's something called the 'deal sheet' which allows players to be signed (?registered) after the window has SLAMMED shut.

    Did we know that? is it a new thing? Is it the old thing (all agreed but gotta wait for someone to put in the new roll of fax paper).

    So Aguerd to Sociadad apparently! all done says Fab.
  • LukerzLukerz
    West Ham have confirmed JWP to Forest & Aguerd to Sociedad.
  • EXETERHAMMEREXETERHAMMER
    We need Soler in.
    Also as Mrs Grey said, this 'Deal Sheet' is holding up the Cornet deal I think.
  • EXETERHAMMEREXETERHAMMER
    Soler on loan confirmed I believe
  • EXETERHAMMEREXETERHAMMER
    Cornet to Southampton done to... I think
  • stevesteve
    Its on O.S Solar signed
  • EXETERHAMMEREXETERHAMMER
    Outstanding transfer window on paper.

    Hopefully Cornet goes through with the Deal Sheet in.

    Shame Ings didn't get a club. Maybe he will step up if required.

    Looking forward to playing Man City tomorrow.
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    Aguerd gone to Real Sociedad for the rest of the season.

    Deal sheets have been around for a good few windows.
  • LukerzLukerz
    So we’re just waiting on Cornet.

    so i can't go to bed?

    Not yet 😂

    It’s been a very good window on paper.

    Kilman & Wan-Bissaka are excellent, proven signings. Foderingham a PL proven back-up.

    Soler, Füllkrug, Rodríguez, Summerville, Guilherme, Todibo - the jury will be out on them. Only one has played in English football & he’s not PL proven.

    On paper a very solid & exciting window but 2/3rds of the signings still carry a degree of risk.

    We’ve also done well to move players on. A little short at CB & possibly up top if Füllkrug doesn’t settle.

    But overall, very good.

    Think we all knew we needed a huge summer, this word is overused but a 'overhaul' was what we needed on paper and we've gone someway to doing that.

    Obviously there are risks with all the non-prem experienced players we've signed but you have to take some risks. On paper they all seem exciting

    Lopetegui had to out his stamp on the squad, and he's been quite aggressive in that regard, but the squad he inherited was small, old, with deadwood and falling apart at the back

    AWB >>>> Johnson
    Kilman > Aguerd (on paper)
    Tobido > Zouma (the Zouma of last year)
    Rodriguez = JWP
    Soler >> Downes (on paper)
    Summerville >> Cornet

    Plus we've added Fullkrug & Guilherme on top of that, and importantly retained Bowen, Kudus, Paqueta and Alvarez

    Think we've done everything we could've done and more, wpudlve liked another centre back and a striker but had we moved on Ings or aguerd earlier we may have got them
