The Athletic. Hello everyone, I'm Danny Kelly,

and I'm your host for the View from the Lane,

the athletics, a Topman-Hotspurred podcast,

All Spurs, all thriller, no filler.

I'm joined on the podcast today by the Athletics Jack Pitt Brook

and James Moore to look back on Spurs' business in the

summer transfer window.

Get to all that shortly.

Of course we will.

First of all, welcome to both of you.

First, Jack, I tweeted you mercilessly on a deadline day saying that after doing a number

of shows on the weekend myself, I now had my feet on the corner of the desk and was watching the television and eating a cornetto, whereas you appear to be working diligently. What's it like, Transfer Deadline Day, for written journalists? It's okay. It's okay. I don't especially like it. You've got to say that because James is here. You've got to say that. Yeah, I've got to sound enthusiastic about my work while also being honest, I suppose.

Yeah, to be honest, from its first perspective, it was a very quiet day.

You know, they got in the one signing that I think was expected that they would get in on that day.

But it's, fortunately, there were no big dramas.

I mean, the good news is that all the major plot lines, I think, were tied up earlier on,

you know, Kane and Donbley staying, son contract, all that kind of thing.

So fortunately, it was only the only pretty minor stories left to do on final day.

James, what about for you?

I mean, obviously, I work in my other life

with people from the daily sort of still print and paper and ink operation. And for them,

it's absolute chaos because they're chasing particularly websites like The Athletic.
