Transfer Window Chat Thread

[BangkokRover]

I can understand your concerns as we have heard so many things this summer only for the goal post to be suddenly moved,

It's my understanding that Pini Zahavi is now in the loop, what this leads to, I don't know, its very early days

My comment was 100% NOT directed at you. More at Rovers in General this pre season and start of the season has been a frecking disaster.

You are just telling us what you have heard and that is great.

Bringing someone into the loop the week the transfer window is closing doesn't give me confidence that any of the people running Rovers have learned from their mistakes.

100% agree but until the window closes I guess we live in hope.

sounds like fulham are getting Gignac on loan. Cannot believe that we're not in for him, great player and he's exactly what we need.

And Lukaku on loan to Stoke... can't believe we're not going in for either.

That ain't happening now, premier league rules say that you can't buy a player off a club and then loan him to a different club in the same transfer window.

Defo one we should be looking at in the january transfer window though, assuming he hasn't broke into chelskis 1st team.

Damn, when I started the Luca Toni rumours, I didn't think it would come true one day. Oh dear, what a bloomin disappointment if true

I wish I had a tenner for every time it's mentioned that anther club has signed so and so (who most have never heard of) and someone pipes up "Cannot believe we are not in for him". Better to sign no one than sign another donkey after we got rid of so many.

Gignac is a French international who was heavily linked with a move to us two summers back (I believe that was when it was). He's hardly someone that most won't have heard of.

how many times the boarders have said that this summer

He's a good player. Do you work for Venkys?

[Ossydave]

Season long loan for Bentley looking likely according to a few on twitter...

[Myles Anderson]

Luca Toni

Duni Akwe Tu?...

Pink Elephants And Lemonade!!

[Paul Mellelieu]

It came as no surprise that Emerton left with the new midfielders coming in and his wages saved. I wonder if Bentley does show up it means Morten or one of the other cast of thousand leaving.

Who think that no matter how many players we end up signing today, Kean will come out and say "we had some really big players lined up, but the deadline came a little bit too soon for them"?

[danielwhite813]

There is no excuses. The main priority the whole window has been a defender and a striker. If we don't them in, it will be a shambles

[moerpho]

Just woke up and almost splurted coffee all over my keyboard when I saw we are linked with Luca Toni! Unbelievable! If it had been 3-4 years ago it would've been ok, but not what we need right now.

Really just want this day to end. Here's hoping we keep Samba, don't sign another useless striker ala Roberts (Yakubu etc), get at least one decent defender aboard (preferably Dann) and hopefully one decent striker. However, my gut feeling says that we will most likely be no better off tomorrow than we are today....unless they fire Kean by tomorrow morning.

[47er]

You sound suprised.....been telling you for the last few days he isnt going anywhere, as isnt Olsson or Hoilett.

When is Hoilett signing then?

No no..... were much better off with Yakubu and Roberts rather than a french international.

Yes well icers your to blame, it's all ur fault - lol. Here's hoping the pull a big surprise off!

well he was a pretty good player, but deary me, Yakubu and Luca Toni doesn't strike you with any confidence. Then again, anybody but Jason Roberta

Big surprise will be if they pull anything off

[Billy Castell]

I miss SSN on freeview. I can't watch Stroke Boy on his giant iPad now.

Hold on to your pants, as I think it'll be a crazy day for us. Even if we start a bidding war over Samba, and bring in 2 or 3 dobbins on the cheap (which is what I'm expecting).

[salothsar]

Dann 12 to 1 on on Sky Bet. Got to be something in it to get to those odds

[imy9]

So the day of reckoning has arrived.

Is it an exaggeration to say that our immediate future depends on who we sign today?

I hope we sign three players, defender, midfielder and striker thats what my heart says, head says Yak on loan...and thats it.
