[Archived] January Transfer Deadline day

[jim mk2]

Assuming he goes Dann would be a big loss IMO. I know he has his faults but he has that little bit of extra class and it is highly unlikely he will be replaced with anyone better. I cannot understand any Rovers fan who would be glad to see him depart because without him there is no doubt we will be significantly weaker.

BBC Radio Leeds report that Leeds have sacked manager Brian McDermott.

I that Varney deal off then?

Strange timing. Might be linked to that new Italian owner.

[K-Hod]

And McCormack had just been on SSN saying 'he was committed to playing for Leeds and McDermott for the rest of the season!!

[Oklahoma]

That's probably why he made sure we got Conway deal sorted today .

Very Good replacement !

I was hoping Conway would be an improvement to the team...

[Hekla]

Any idea if we are going to sign anybody else tonight?

[bob fleming]

Scott Dann. Captain Average. I'm struggling to think of any aspect of his game that he excels at. He certainly doesn't inspire, isn't a leader of men nor leads by example. When the going gets tough... he's exactly the same. I've never seen him lose his rag, get stuck in or even fired up. I for one won't be gutted if he leaves.

Liked arguing with his own team though, he will disappear into the ether.....never really embraced the club, no love lost here

Can we have it in writing?

[chor808]

Potentially big news for Palace fans then - with three more on their way in...

fingers crossed one is best

[chaddyrovers]

Dann deal done now according to Danny Murphy on radio 5.

need a couple of players in now

[blueboy3333]

A Crstal Palace coach has just been on the BBC-red-button-poor-man's-Sky-transfer-deadline-day-nonsense-with-'Chappers' being coy about Scott Dann. Sounds pretty much a done deal. Danny Murphy chirped up with 'Scott is a great lad, should have been back in Prem before now, he's a great team leader blah blah'. He failed to add Dann normally leads teams to relegation. 'Coyley' is there as well. It's ferkin awful. i can't stop watching it.

[Hekla]

Stephen Dobbie for Best perhaps?

[K-Hod]

Danny Murphy being on TV would have meant me needing a new one. Daft scouse c**t.

[bringdunnback]

Think Leon Best will unfortunately still be a Rovers players come tomorrow. Shame.

GB just been on Talkspowt, did'nt give the impression anyone else coming in today.

[G Somerset Rover]

It's bloody ridiculous if he is. We'll basically have to pay him millions to cancel his contract. No other option if we can't shift him tonight.

[bob fleming]

It's bloody ridiculous if he is.

Would you buy him / pay him what he's on now? Hardly ridiculous is it.

[rickard]

Unrelated to Rovers, but Frimpong to Barnsley. That's a brilliant signing for them I think.

[Tom]

Good luck on the hattrick Scott

[Proudtobeblue&white]

If, Leon, would you move for a substantial pay cut? Great training with his mates, irritating the manager and spending all afternoon tweeting sh*te.....whilst remaining the greatest striker since Best.

[AdamRochina]

if we dont bring anyone else in then it would be a slightly poor window bar the trimming

[somersetrover]

It's bloody ridiculous if he is. We'll basically have to pay him millions to cancel his contract. No other option if we can't shift him tonight.

Or play him considering we are paying him. Also we've only got two strikers and he'd be a far better option to bring on for a goal than anything that we had on the bench on Tuesday.

[adsfortheblues]

Lucas Neill till the end of the season? Very uninspiring.

[mattjansen]

Or play him considering we are paying him. Also we've only got two strikers and he'd be a far better option to bring on for a goal than anything that we had on the bench on Tuesday.

And he would really feel the need to impress right? Would rather see some youngster running his socks off when given the chance.

Dann deal done
