"My mate is Dennis Wise's nephew... he told me that Newcastle are planning a shock £9m move for David Bentley and that they will offer him a contract that is too good to turn down - believable?"

BBC - 606

<_<

Apart from Rovers accepting a £9m bid, why not?

If it turns out to be a Hull Vs Burnley play-off final, can I cadge a lift off you to Wembley, Alan? :)

Play-offs? Burnley? They will be up by then.

I think it's a shame that so much time and effort is spent on bringing in kids and yet none make the breakthrough.

I don't know why.

And, by the looks, I'm not alone in that.

Too much of a long term investment of sorts, perhaps the club want to make quicker, greater impacts?

I think it's a shame, sounds like our youth setup is a pretty good one, just not sure if that is what is important in the English game anymore?

Stroke Boy is now forgetting what he's been talking about. Obviously showing more signs of decline, memory loss can't be a good thing.

Pardon? What are you talking about?

Gardner for Everton?

Do you realise HOW good this thread is...

I realise how boring and 'same-old, same-old' this thread is becoming ..... :rover:

I suspect Ipswich are the fizzy pop boys who have done the best in this window- they nabbed our target remember?

Being dispassionate for a moment, I don't see that the dingles have moved decisively. Yes they might be better than they were pre-window but a lot depends on the 17 year old kid not getting kicked over the Longshaw by the likes of Barnsley.

Lets see how they go in the next three games- both ends of the table; WBA and Colchester then moneybags QPR. Anything less than 7 points and they are not straight promotion contenders, less than 4 points and they are really struggling for a play-off place.

To call the suicide watch off, this the BBC done deals tracker:

PREMIER LEAGUE TRANSFER TRACKER:

In: Bolton (Rasiak), Derby (Carroll, Stubbs), Fulham (Kallio, Litmanen, Stalteri), Sunderland (Reid), Wigan (Hagen), Tottenham (Gilberto)

Out: Arsenal (Gibbs, Randall), Bolton (Wilhelmsson, Michalik), Chelsea (Grant), Derby (Bywater), Everton (Stubbs), Fulham (Cook, Davis), Man City (Dabo, Miller), Middlesbrough (M Bates), Newcastle (Rozenhal), Reading (Henry, Pearce), Sunderland (Halford), Tottenham (Stalteri)

In all honesty, I am not sitting here all of a jitter because we missed out. That said I do say my prayers about Bentley, Reid and Dunn staying fit and avoiding suspension.

:D

EVERTON have signed Fernandes. PORTSMOUTH about to land Defoe. MAN CITY to take Benjani. ASTON VILLA to get Chimbonda [probably but it's Daniel Levy time].

All four had bigger squads before January.

Sorry, but it's been a bad window for Rovers.
