It’s my favourite day of the year. Better than Christmas. Transfer Deadline Day is looming – so let the fun begin on MailOnline. For sports news operations, it is a chance to flex your muscles, show your medals, break the stories of the latest deals and then publish them as fast as is possible. In our office, the day starts at around 6am and finishes at midnight. It’s an adrenalin rush of breaking news and revealing detail (and hoping it’s Manchester United, Arsenal or Liverpool signing someone in a desperate late dash and not just relying on Scunthorpe or Bury taking a left back on loan… please).
