Right then 13 teams bid for the 9 players available, so there will be disappointment!!
I may as well jus say now that the disappointment will rise in numbers as 2 players received no bids at all and they were keepers Petrovic and Perry.
So where to start then.....

Well lets go for the lone striker T.Barry as all bids received for him were first choices.
The lowest bid came in from Leeds at £37m and as he had 4 bids it was not going to be enough.
This was followed up with £40m from Bournemouth @Matt and again it was too low to win him.
Then came £42.5m from Arsenal and it also was too low @Jamma in fact these were all way off the winning bid that was nearly three times higher at £123m
Who though bid that well it came in from Manchester City @Todd Fortune and so he will join them

Next will jump to the most popular keeper this round in J Trafford, who got 4 bids.
Bournemouth having missed out on Barry went for M_Weiss and bid £33m @Matt and missed out so sent his third choice bid here bidding £33m and as it turns out this was the lowest bid for him, So unfortunately Bournemouth miss out this round on a player.
The other 3 bids were first choice.
Next to miss out was a £36.5m bid that came in from QPR @Joe
this was followed by a bid of £85m from Wolves @Ian McNamara and again was too low.
Instead it took a £164m bid to take him and he will be at Brighton this season @willz121

Now then we will go for M Weiss, a keeper who got 4 bids.
Brentford @stocko74 made him their first choice and unbelievably miss out as they were later with their bid than the other team! We will cover the amount in a minute as it is the same as the winner.
Bournemouth @Matt having missed out on first choice went here and again missed out with a bid of £40m.
Derby @Dazoctaron sent their second bid in for another player and then came here with their third bid but they join Bournemouth in missing out this round as they cam in with £13.75m @Joe
Also missing out was QPR with a third bid of £36m @Joe
The winning bid was from Wolves @Ian McNamara at £40m having missed out on Trafford they get this keeper instead.

Now it's Dewsbury-Hall who got all the rest of the first choice bids and 6 bids in total.
Leeds lost out on their previous 2 bids @markbaldwin1892 and miss out here as well with their third bid of £35m.

Right then 2 players left.
First up is Estevao who also had 4 bids, all 2nd choice and 1 third choice.
Third third choice came from Fulham @Macca and was the lowest of the bids at £30m, so Fulham miss out this round.
Not far ahead of this was £45m from Arsenal @Jamma which was also too low. The third one that came in was Liverpool's 2nd choice bid of £77.5m and they miss out on their 2nd target as well @Eduardo.
No the second choice bid that got it was £80.5m from Sunderland @Nocky
