With Deadline Day looming like the mother of all Xmas' and all us gooners gathered round the tree, faces all shiny and full of hope, wondering what we might get. Will we be that very lucky, spoilt kid who gets all they hoped for and more (a brand new Suarez, an Ozil and a whole sack-full of other goodies). Or will we be the poor kid who's parents can't afford the real thing and so buy them a cheaper, crappier immitation (like a Chamakh or a Park) and we then have to look happy but are secretly devastated and know that we will be humiliated. Or will we be that sad little kid - you know the one, the tragic little doe-eyed orphan who has noone to love him and always gets nowt and because of this rejection goes on to harbour a terrible grudge that festers and turns him into a pitiful creature who self-harms and becomes a nuisance. Exciting innit?

Love it! Normally we are the middle bracket and could expect park or santos, but this time we may get nowt. The rejection will be all the worse because we know our big daddy can spend plenty, if only he loved us!

I feel excited, yet, at the same time I feel I could throw up any minute.

Do you reckon the board read websites like these and get a kick out of it?
