chris_h Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Not to worry if we win i'll grab a fosters and drink a toast to you to show no hard feelings cause that's the 'type' I am As for back on topic I think all our transfers are done now unless there's more sales. I wonder if they are holding back on brining any loans in to see how the first few games go injury wise ? Ffs, NOBODY drinks Fosters in Australia. In fact I don't even think you can buy that swill here. Yeah transfers, dunno. I'd be happy if there were no more before the window shuts.

Al Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Christ, this again. I might not see Rovers live much these days but I still have a decent bullshit detector. I was in the BBE lower (middle) 3 times last season and, whilst Bowyer was not hero worshipped, the views of you and your clique of moaners were definitely in the minority. Wrong. Just shows that it's impossible to judge anything without witnessing it. That goes for the others you mention too.
chris_h Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Wrong. Just shows that it's impossible to judge anything without witnessing it. That goes for the others you mention too. Ah well. I can only call it as I saw/heard it. To be honest it did get a bit testy during the Rotherham game. Those who were slagging Bowyer off were told to STFU which resulted in a bit of finger pointing and gesticulating.
briansol Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Can we please keep the discussion related to transfers. The Venky and Bowyer has it's own threads. Personal bickering belongs outside this forum.

roversoutsider Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 What a header by Rudy. Have we included a sell-on clause in his transfer? I'd be seething if we didn't. Can see him going on to be an excellent PL-level target man that will score boatloads for teams that like to cross a lot.
Darwen Rover 007 Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Well done to Rudy, genuinely gutted he's gone as iv mentioned previously think he'll do really really well.. Because his all round game was really strong
Backroom Tom Posted August 8, 2015 Backroom Posted August 8, 2015 According to @jimwilkz on Twitter he was told we signed Hope Akpan yesterday Reliable bloke
rovers11 Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 According to @jimwilkz on Twitter he was told we signed Hope Akpom yesterday Reliable bloke Went to Hull. Is that the guy he means?
chaddyrovers Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 According to @jimwilkz on Twitter he was told we signed Hope Akpom yesterday Reliable bloke Box to box midfielder from Reading?But we need a pacey winger in for certain.
LewisF Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Box to box midfielder from Reading? But we need a pacey winger in for certain. With 1 goal in 50+ appearances according to wiki
Backroom Tom Posted August 8, 2015 Backroom Posted August 8, 2015 Does he mean Hope Akpan from Reading? That's who he said I just got it wrong sorry
AdamRochina Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Wait we have signed hope akpan? Or Jim was wrong? Otherwise it would of been announced...also wouldn't it require a fee
blueboy3333 Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Is Hope Akpan a CM. There must be some outgoings then unless we're going 1-8-1. Evans wouldn't be missed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hope_Akpan He's a big lad
G Somerset Rover Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Another centre mid? Well makes sense in the world of Bowyer. Meanwhile that pace that he said was priority #1 in May still hasn't been sorted.
AdamRochina Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 I don't belive this is true .there would be something other then a pic of a text to someone at a pub
Backroom Tom Posted August 8, 2015 Backroom Posted August 8, 2015 I don't belive this is true .there would be something other then a pic of a text to someone at a pub The bloke who sent it and the bloke who received are both about as knowledgable as they come I would say.
Backroom Mike E Posted August 8, 2015 Backroom Posted August 8, 2015 We need another cb more than anything imo.
G Somerset Rover Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 We need another cb more than anything imo.Not IMO. Kilgallon is good enough but Gaz prefers the unpredictable Hanley and Duffy.Pace should be the number 1 target and I've been saying that for 24 months. Delfy and Koita don't have enough of it. Also, if Gaz does want to persist with 4-5-1 then he needs someone more adept at playing in the hole than Marshall. He is far more effective on the flank.
Stuart Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Not IMO. Kilgallon is good enough but Gaz prefers the unpredictable Hanley and Duffy. Pace should be the number 1 target and I've been saying that for 24 months. Delfy and Koita don't have enough of it. This is part of the problem. We can all see weak links but Bowyer staunchly does not. How do you bring in a strong CB and strong CM when these are two positions that Bowyer thinks are boxed off and just requires another couple of wingers ever transfer window?

He must be close to bringing in 30 players since he came to the club and he still hasn't a clue as to 1) his strongest 11 or 2) what's needed. I genuinely cannot understand people wanting to give the guy more time.
