I'm guessing it's a striker moving that could result in Benni or Jason moving elsewhere as backup.

You have missed the home truth part. Often a 'home truth' isn't something pleasent. Often something not to laugh about. Sometime painful if not embarrassing.

I find it hard to believe that it is ONLY compensation that is holding the Coyle move up. Burnley know he is gone - so just to haggle over money, so called friends etc. I cannot help think there is something else in the pot.

I was being sarcastic. Meaning that I felt it was easy for people to spot the bit you highlighted it, without you highlighting it. If this caused you any offense, I apologise.

Didn't see anything to be offended about to be honest. Nicko hasn't said anything about a transfer, just an interesting move. When Nicko has earlier said about home truths with regards to the coyle situation - how can that be a home truth for us on here. A home truth must mean Rovers. I am only guessing of course.

I think he meant home truths for Burnley myself, but was just telling US. Thereby letting us pick up on it for a chant in the next game?

Did he say this move had something to do with a 'home truth'. could have nothing to do with Burnley at all as I read it

I was actually refering to Nicko's post about 10am this morning - but re-reading that post, that he is on about how Burnley have handled the situation. I therefore apologise and correct myself.

Not necessarily about Rovers, I always thought the phrase "home truth" was used when there was something more to a situation than is publically said at the outset, in this case that there may be something more "sinister" or "nefarious" shall we say about Coyle's move than either Bolton or Burnley have revealed so far

Aye I read that as some news about the conduct of Burnley officials in that move. However if you combine the two, Coyle could go to Bolton, maybe take a player or two with him, Nugent back to Pompey and Holden over to Brockhall for a trial.

it may be too early in the coyle reign at bolton for him to start signing players , but i am sure i read somewhere he once tried signing jason scotland from swansea? he's hardly set the world on fire at wigan , i wonder if that move could figure somewhere in nicko's info

Signing Beattie would make sense for when this 'home grown' rule comes into place. The only problem is that if we do sign him then it's about 8 years too late. I don't see how we can improve our strikeforce with an aging injury prone striker.

I can:

He plays just like Roberts.

Is a bit younger.

Is just as strong as Roberts.

Supports the rovers and will work much harder than Roberts.

Will most likely be on similar wages to Roberts.

It's basically replacing Roberts with a like-for-like that might actually DO smething other than collapse to the floor every time John Williams farts in the stand!

Apologies if this has already been posted but I can't believe we are going to bring in ANOTHER player who won't be ready to play for weeks/months...

BLACKBURN Rovers are set to add Algerian midfielder Amine Linganzi to their ranks before the close of the transfer window – but won’t expect him to make any immediate impact.

Corrected my name for you. And I think Beattie is (as I said) a Roberts like-for-like in terms of playing. He'll just work a bit harder for the club he supports. He won't be a world beater, but he'll be decent. he'll get us more goals from up front than we currently have from any individual striker (how ironic that it's Roberts!)
