It's stage three of the five stages of the Burnley transfer window:

Hope
Frustration
Excitement
Disappointment
Anger

Some of us go through it quicker than others. Personally I'm still at 'hope'.

As frustrating and worrying as it can be, I wouldn't swap it for the January window when we brought in the likes of Nathan Abbey, Dele Adebola and Neil Wood.

It is a pain in the bum, unless we sign someone decent along with Joey and of course retain the 1st 16 or so which makes it appear a good idea.

I'm at "hope" till about 11.56 pm on the 31st.

The speed I then rattle through the next four don't do me any good at all.

I get through those phases at least once per thread.

It's made worse for me cos I have a bet at 9/2 on Snodgrass joining us.
