[Archived] Transfers Part 2

[Crimpshrine]

May have been answered elsewhere but is Mowbray now officially manager or still head coach? I don't suppose it matters too much.

Picking through his various comments since his return from India, I don't think he is convinced himself that he is going to have any influence on this summer's buying/selling activity.

I think he will wait patiently and then reassess his position in a month or so. Personally, I don't see any grounds for optimism.

If Mowbray can get Camps to sign it's a good sign of where he wants to take this team, good on the ball, good eye for that killer pass we have lacked for years, good  on set pieces! Sign him up! In Mowbray we trust

That is definitely your favorite question on this forum. 

Can't find this once though. It's usually listed on Transfermarkt, on the play profile, but he hasnt got one listed.

Camps is contracted to Rochdale until summer 2018. He got  a 1 year extension in March.

A fee is going to be needed and Rochdale want to keep him.

An early test for the Raos? If TM wants him...

Honest and well intentioned query here JAL, but what is the basis for your need to know the agent of every manager/player linked to or signed to Rovers?

Is that your line of work too?  Or is it due to our recent history with agents and agent's organisations?

Cheers.

Well I have got to say I always wonder about the same question.

I know he looks like a boy but there's no need for him to wear boy's shirts. Looks ridiculous that.

Cost cutting. One size fits all.

Cheston likes this!

Not too sure about some of our fattys though.

Jeez, Graham will be tearing through his shirt like the incredible hulk. Or incredible bulk? Either way, bad idea.

Who cares???

As long as he performance very well and Rovers do well thats all that matters. 

You still havent answered who Mowbray's agent is? Doubt you know but expect everybody to find the info for you. 

I reckon he are agent for agency who can secure Rovers players on your books so thats why you are so anti certain players.

It's certainly down to our current history of agents and trying to build a picture as it's these guys that have driven up costs added to the spiralling debt whilst pulling millions out for themselves and we've been left with nothing to show for it.

wheres this talk of camps coming in come from? have a missed something here, if its just someone saying who they would like here then i would like to add paddy madden to that list, from my hometown team scunthorpe and on his day is a brilliant little player

[blueboy3333]

Who put the xxxx in Scunthorpe Only messing.

Callum Camps is a new holiday resort BRFCS is de-camping to this summer. It's a health retreat that specialises in anger, frustration  & relegation. Or he's a Rochdale player that Nixon read about online and said we wouldn't be signing because he's worth a bob or two.

Paddy Madden would cost too much unless he's out of contract. But we defo need a striker or two.

and il have a look about his contract but its a pipe dream on madden anyway, he is a decent player at this level though, another one from scunthorpe is winger homles or something like that, he came from hudds, hes a tricky little player with age on his side

Where have you been the last few years Chaddy? Posting a link too that article to try and prove me wrong is insane. Lambert was promised money when he joined, did he get it or did he walk out the door the minute he realised the truth of the state of our club finances. For god sake Chaddy wake up man

I think @chaddyrovers point is a fair one. Meeting and agreeing something with someone face to face holds a lot more weight than when you don't.

 

Yes,it means the let-down is even greater.

It so bloody frustrating. Venkys are proven liars yet Chaddy swallows everything they say. Mowbray in his defence has only been here for 5 minutes. Unless Chaddy has been asleep for 6 years there is no logic to his naiveity unless he's a parody here to get on everyones wick!

He's not a parody or a dingle fan which makes it worse. How can someone who loves the club just as much as the rest of us expect Mowbray to be given "a couple million" Jesus even a wealthy league one club wouldn't spend that much never mind one like us who are skint to the bone. Understand Chaddy please... WE HAVE NO MONEY 

[roverandout]

Telling that to chaddy is like flogging a dead horse

Mahoney is off to 'test the market'. League 1 wages obviously not for him. Such a shame we have Stokes stinking the place out, Mahoney would have probably signed for his wage. 

[davulsukur]

At least Mowbray has been honest about it all.

Tried to convince him to stay and failed, nothing more he can do.

Now, we just need to wait because Junior Hoillet is signing that new contract any day now.....

[Dreams of 1995]

Connor Mahoney is feeling the symptoms of modern day football. He's had a good few months and probably views League 1 a step below him. How disappointing it's going to be to see him go to some bottom half Premiership/top half Championship club just to be loaned back to someone in League 1 to face us. Inevitable really. 

[AllRoverAsia]

Old news.

Nothing is being tested. Mahoney will go. Rovers get some compo. The compo gets spent by someone. We don't sign an adequate replcement. Old recipe.

The Venky Academy can't even rear broilers correctly.
