Out of contract next year. Not played well as Hilly blocked his move to Leeds in the summer, distracted some players allegedly 

[Preben]

Looks like he's replaced Danny Graham!

No he's centre midfield

[EgyptianPete]

By the way these two signings are the last this transfer window, no more in and NO MORE OUT

[G Somerset Rover]

Camps would be a good addition from the little I’ve seen. Good young creative player. Bell in too would add some more much needed pace.

Gally was nailed on to join us.  I read it somewhere.

Not sure all I heard was he was furious in the summer.

Both Bell and Camps played today for their clubs

thanks for reply

[islander200]

If it is Bell and Camps surprised they played for their clubs today it certainly wouldn't suggest fees had been agreed.

Would definitely be happy with Camps but if it is to be the last of our buisness then a bit disappointed than no pacy winger has been added.

[EgyptianPete]

Well maybe, as things change all the time when certain players become either available or surplus to requirements, but where would he fit in right now,  and would his wages be championship  status, i'm all for improvement in the team but today we played really really well and could easily have beaten many championship teams.

Talking  about Gally from Preston

[roversfan99]

If Bell and Camps were our final transfer business itd be a poor window in terms of ignoring our urgent need for a winger.

Wait and see thought not one to get too bogged down in rumours.

Well that is strange, like i say lets see on Monday when they are supposed to be announced. TM did say tonight that something has moved significantly on the transfer front.

Listening to TM post match commentary today where he said something about: “some days it will be conway and bennett and some days it will be armstrong and samuel (out wide)”

i think TM might see it as he has enough options out wide?

[LDRover]

I think it's great news if these 2 are the last incomings as it means a no to J-Lo.

Samuel is certainly no winger, Bennett is seemingly best suited centrally, Armstrong was apparently useless there at Bolton and Conway hasnt the legs to do it all season so itd be a big mistake.

He has talked about another Chapman so fingers crossed he didnt mean it that way.

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

I 've always liked Camps but he's been really poor this season for Rochdale. I don't think their fans would be too sorry to see him go at the moment. In August they would have been gutted. When I've seen him play he's neat and tidy on the ball and very rarely loses possession but he's not very ambitious with his passing. Having said that I thought they were playing him too deep. You don't hurt teams from the centre circle very often.
