Championship Club Accidentally Leak Entire January Target List in Deleted Post
A Championship club somehow leaked their entire January window transfer targets in a huge social media blunder.
The January transfer window is open, with clubs wasting no time in signing new players for the second half of the season.
Clubs in the Premier League have already been active, with Crystal Palace snapping up Brennan Johnson from Tottenham, while Manchester City seem set to sign Bournemouth star Antoine Semenyo.
Championship sides are also in the market for new talent, including Bristol City, who secured the signing of Sam Morsy on a six-month deal.

The move sees the ex-Ipswich Town midfielder return to England following his spell in Kuwait.
Morsy, 34, captained the Tractor Boys to back-to-back promotions from League One to the Premier League before leaving the club in the summer.
He attracted plenty of interest before penning a deal at Ashton Gate as Oxford United were also keen on signing the former Egyptian international.
Well, that's judging by Oxford's transfer list that was leaked on social media.
The wife of minor shareholder Sumrith Thanakarnjanasuth posted a video on her Instagram story of him reading out names to a child from a list that appeared to be the club's January transfer targets.

Thanakarnjanasuth can be heard saying the names of West Ham United midfielder George Earthy, who spent last season on loan at Bristol City, and Nottingham Forest defender Tyler Bindon, who is currently on loan at Sheffield United.
The other names on the list included the aforementioned Morsy, Paddy McNair, Isiah Jones, Yu Hirakawa, Jesurun Rak-Sakyi, Aidomo Emakhu, Alex Robertson, Ryan Hardie, Paris Magohma and Jack Taylor.
One of the players said to be on that list was Jamie Donley, who signed for Oxford from Spurs on loan, with a permanent option.
The U's will be hoping for further recruits given their precarious league position.
They are currently 22nd in the Championship table, one point from safety.
Oxford resume their league campaign on January 17 when they host Bristol City, having had Tuesday's game against Sheffield United postponed due to a frozen pitch.
