Adam Armstrong credits warm welcome at #Rovers and atmosphere around the club after winning League One prize https://t.co/FGMTuj9BLE

His goalscoring run has come as no surprise to the #Rovers boss though: https://t.co/K6xgqF1Hvn

He has been a huge addition 

[JacknOry]

This guy is quality and will be a big reason for us going up automatically if we manage it. Would be great if we could somehow get him on the books permanently. 

[philipl]

Cracking good signing.

[Tom]

Brilliant finishing recently, deadly with his pace to get him into the positions 

[DE.]

Well done for bringing him in, TM. Really good signing.

[Bigdoggsteel]

How much would this guy cost? Hard to call. 3 million at a minimum I'd say. Maybe we can get him on loan next year again

[DeeZee]

like a league 1 Paulo Dybala!

[chaddyrovers]

we need to sign him permanently 

[gumboots]

That depends on a number of factors out of our control though. Do his parent club want to sell? Does he want to join us? What league will we be asking him to play in? How much will he cost? And JAL's favourite "who's his agent " to name but a few

[FGS5635]

The price goes up evey week. Im not sure we can afford him now

Another season on Loan is probably our best hope

[Mattyblue]

Two years left on his contract, would cost a small fortune, you would imagine.

Season long loan could be a goer though...

You forgot "will Venkys pay up?"

[gumboots]

I did say to name but a few as a catch all! ☺

Yep, that'd be the only way you would imagine. If you read/hear any of his interviews then he's hell-bent on succeeding at Newcastle as a local lad. Fair play to him.

So was Shearer but we still did well out of him

[philipl]

So was Graham Fenton

I don't see it with Android Swift myself, she looks like a Tibetan Fox to me, and she is a money grubbing hack. And it might happen, though a lot depends on where Newcastle are, managers and owners' thoughts and asking price.

[Pedro]

Don't forget it's irrelevant how long his contract lasts, he isn't available for a Bosman due to his age, so there will be a fee even when his contract is up.

[Bigdoggsteel]

If Newcastle go down, I'd say he will start for them next season. If they stay up, we may have a chance of getting him on loan again.

Agree - Dont like Newcastle but hope they stay up for this reason alone.

[Tom]

As someone who’s had doubts about the manager at times this is great to hear:

 

"For me he's a really good man manager, he speaks to his players all the time and lets us know what's going on and you can also go to him with any problems," said Armstrong.

"On the training pitch he's very intense and, like I said, it seems to be working. He gets his thoughts across well and we all understand what he wants. Everyone is working hard for him and the fans.

"Obviously I know him from Coventry but I've come here and I'm playing games and doing well and that's the main thing. A lot of people forget I'm still only 21, so the amount of games I've already played is massive for me going forward in my career.

Billy Wilson was from Seaton Delavel. I've got a pal who was born there. If you called him a Geordie he'd punch you on the nose. That area is Sunderland through and through according to him.

PMSL 

Ya mates talking nonsense .Seaton Delaval is in Northumberland...Newcastle supporters from there .?

Adam loves Mogga ...has total respect for him and I'd reckon he'll be at Rovers next season on a season long loan at the very least playing in an attacking and ambitious team unlike his spells at Barnsley and Bolton. Personally I don't think he's going to get his chance to lead the line in a toon top.Hed be better staying with Mowbray and proving all the doubters wrong .

Get tired of hearing Newcastle fans saying ...he's found his level in league 1.Utter bollocks he's 21 years old. He's a natural born goalscorer!!
