So are we of the opinion Popov can play in the hole - a la Dunn/Pedersen?

[alexanders]

Yes we are.

Apparently either that position or the right wing are his favourites, but he can also play on the left.

If Dunny is out for a significant period then he could be thrust straight into the action.

[Miker]

Popov sounds very promising. We have a lot of good young players in the squad now, but I'd like to see us sign 1 or 2 experienced players as well. Guiza would be nice and one other.

Popov?

[bennyboyt11]

Nicko or anyone, will Popov be a player that can play straight away, or one that we will need to 'bulk' up first and won't see playing till later in the season?

JW has poured cold water on the Popov story:

Andy cryer: denying every positive Rovers story since 2009 (or whenever he joined the LET).

That is ridiculous!!! John Williams denied the story that Popov is a done deal and Cryer reports it. Seems fair enough to me

Sorry Andy.

[LeChuck]

How are Litex under the impression it's a done deal if we haven't even made an offer?

I could understand if they misinterpreted Popov passing the 'Allardyce test'...but if there is not even a fee in place? Weird.

My guess (hope) is that the deal is further along than Williams says there. It's just not in Litex's interest to announce something like that if it's 100% false.

No retraction or update on Lovech's official site.

Someone Email Jack straw he'll know if a rovers permit has been submitted.

He is probably a Dingle in disguise

Thought he'd retired.

Only from the front bench. And not til October - I think

Atchoo !

I wonder if Ivelin Popov is playing tonight in the Europa league qual.

He didn't travel with the team yesterday.

[Andy]

That's because he's suspended

Just shows, once again, that until a signing is reported on the official club website, it's not happened.

As an aside, the LET have the better Rovers contacts out of all newspaper and red-top rags, often direct from the chairman, so I don't really understand the poo-pooing of the news they've reported.

Particularly so with Popov, as it's turned out to be the most correct information on here.
