A cynical person might say he'd signed the new contract to get more money for Sheffield united when he was sold.

If you were to say we'd have Petrovic, Goodwillie and Valdez by the beginning of the season, i'd be more than happy with that. Could there be a taller centre midfield partnership in world football?

This wouldn't be a bad team.

Robinson

Salgado Nelsen Samba Olsson/Givet

Petrovic N'Zonzi

Holliet Dunn/Formica Pedersen

Valdez

Roberts

Goodwillie

Rochina

Emerton

Hanley

Grella

Blackman

Lowe

[RoversNCarolina]

That boy will never succeed with that attitude.

League 1 over the premiership?

The key word was "interest". Doubt Rovers or anyone else actually put in a bid or else he wouldn't be staying in League 1.

I'm sure his agent made it up

drop Pedersen, have Olson at left mid, drop dunny and have either Ruben, or Roberts playing in stead for me ! plus, I`m sure starting this season, ywe are back down to only having 5 subs named for match day rather than 7

and I still can`t figure out how to get my avatar workign with animation ! its a.gif file and its animated in IE9 - but won`t move when I use it here grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I hope to god Blackman isnt an option, he doesnt appear anywhere near prem quality!!

Only in the Football League. The PL still allow 7 subs to be named, as they should.

[Roversi]

i agree with Kelbo, Blackman isn't prem quality, but ill give him a chance this season, he will proberly end up playing on the wing for the first team. Also noticed that Lowe is the under 20's team captain for the world cup, Lowe must be better than i thought he was originally.

Ah, cheers for that, my mistake !

Can anyone PM me about animated avatars before i lose patience with my keyboard !

http://t.co/HQdqD0J Did we not insert a sell on fee for Tracy? There should be some money coming to Rovers.

[roverandout]

so we desperately need a goalscoring striker ans we are STILL after grafter and triers, havent we got enough of them at the club already? jeez luiz!!!!

[roverandout]

hope its not valdez or young, not what we need up front.

Rovers put some pretty hefty sell on clauses in selling all their youngsters. But 40% or 50% of not a lot is still not a lot.

First signing with less than two weeks to go before kick off, and another in the wings. Only five more to bring in to get the squad up and running ready for the seasons new challenges.

I'm hoping for three more - midfielder, another striker, and a centre half. Anything over that will be a bonus.

So striker wise, Roberts, Goodwillie and AN other is good enough for a club in the PL?

IMO, a PL club needs 4 strikers on the books.

[yeti-dog]

Predictably negative.

Why five?

I'd argue two and a half...Jones,Jones and probably Kalinic.

Surely Diouf(x2) and RSC don't count bearing in mind how little they brought to the party.

Anyhow,it's clear there's more transfer activity going on as we speak.

[chaddyrovers]

If we sign Petrovic and Goodwillie. Then we need centre back, full back and at least 1 striker if not 2 strikers.

I would except us to be busy in August NOW!

Dont forget we've lost seven so far, in the Jones x2, Dioufs x2, S Cruz, Benjani and now Kalinic. Then there is Keef Andrews possibly to go out on loan and Big Chris Samba to more than likely leave.

I agree chaddy, definitely need 2 more strikers on top of the Goodwillie signing!

but who? that's the question... I wouldn't be opposed to the Park Chu-Young signing but then I think we need to go for someone with a proven goalscoring record also!

We haven't signed ANYONE yet. And it's August 1st tomorrow. Don't build your hopes up.

EH Diouf technically hasn't left, nor was he here for the last half of the season. Blackman has come back so that replaces one of the strikers although granted he doesn't look up to task.

Goodwillie

Petrovic

Plus 2 or 3 more would be decent business.
