He's just managing the fans expectations, if he says we will get two and we need them fans will be dissapointed if we don't get them, if he says we may not get any and we get two, fans will be happier.

Lets wait ans see what we get anyway.

Maybe he should have said we’re desperate to get more in on the last day of the window. That might have helped

I would like another two, who wouldn’t

Can’t see it happening though unfortunately

Yeah, it would would help the selling/loaning out clubs ask for more money.

I know there's at least one more coming in, possibly two.

No but I would guess one would be another attacking player as we were linked with a couple of players like that.

BBC and Glen Williams also saying they expect at least one more.

If we get Grant over the line this will be a decent window, no ifs or buts!
Credit where it’s due.
