Bet Paul Lambert is annoyed! wonder how much this effects any planned business for tomorrow??

Doubt it, JR's place has already been allocated.

Another club will step in with a bid

Or he has seen how we changed our game at Oxford and though, sh1t, that might happen to us !

If he's staying then I'm not going to be disappointed. Whatever anyone says he's got goals and we need them.

It seems there is a great deal of confusion around the circumstances of the deal being off.

Most media sources are reporting it is Middlesbrough who have pulled the plug, not Rovers and not Rhodes. Jim White quoted Rhodes as being 'baffled and disappointed' that Middlesbrough pulled out.

Yet reading the Middlesbrough Gazette story they seem to be blaming it on Rhodes' contract demands.

Surely if Rhodes was that keen to go there then he would forgo some bonuses and wouldn't say he was 'baffled' by their decision?

Middlesbrough will have known exactly how much he is on a week here so I can't imagine what surprises they've encountered over the weekend to suddenly drop the whole thing at the last minute.

Not put Boro and Gibson in a good light at all.

We don't know who has been changing the goalposts but someone has.

Gutted for Rhodes because he deserved his chance and had been very professional throughout.

If this proves to be the case it could make Rovers winners in every respect. Lambert appears to have got the players he wanted, Rhodes - who is a good pro - will really have to up his game to get in the team PL appears to be building to get himself in the summer shop window.

Might work out very well.

My thoughts also.
