There should be no excuses and no cliches imo. The window so far has been...underwhelming.  Do I think we’d go down with this squad? No? Is it better than the one which went down? Yes, I believe

You told her that her son should NOT choose the Premier League club? Were you advising Venky's from 2010 onwards?!

Looks like he has chosen the Premier league club. Might mean Mendez-Laing is available. Fast winger with Championship experience.

Quick look at his stats as never heard of him and he hasn't played a senior game for Bristol city.Played 38 times on loan at Cheltenham last season though 

Might be young and hungry to improve. Gotta trust TM.

Would be good signing but I think we sign Chapman instead IMO

Nope but its silly season. Todays rumoured signings are tomorrows fish and chip paper. Bring on the World Cup.

I haven't seen us linked to one player by a reputable source yet 

What a reputable source? Is Nixon and Cross a reputable source?

Nixon hasn't had a clue or got anything right about Rovers since his mate wee Coyley left. So calling him a reputable source in terms of Rovers is pushing it. Calling Nixon a reputable source full stop is pushing it too be fair.  :lol: Big Scottish Fud. Don't even get me started on that tosser Cross either.

I hope Bennett is on the case. I think Armstrong and Chapman added greatly to the team spirit last season and that can only help this year. Chapman showed glimpses of brilliance so a further year loan to see how his hamstring is won't hurt us or Boro. Likewise Armstrong seems to have the touch of scoring goals for Mowbray so a chance for Newcastle to see him at this level under him is a no-brainer, despite his recent let down at Bolton.

Two lads who have both lifted international youth trophies can't be bad. Get them wrapped up - Armstrong permanent, Chapman loan!

I think the collectiveness shown by the team last season was one of my highlights. We had to rally together after a terrible start and did so. Then, in my mind, a weak squad may have collapsed after that 2-0 come back from Wigan but we pulled our socks up and took it to the post. All credit goes to Mowbray and the boys there. I'd do all I can to keep the core of that squad together.

Isn't Chapman in his last year of his contract anyway? I'd say that puts us in the driving seat with regards to signing him.

Believe he is yes. Risky signing due to his injury problems but one that might be worth taking for the right price.

I very much doubt that. What's your speed over 50 metres? When you get up from the keyboard obviously :) What level have you played at yourself? I'd say if you scored 20 goals in LOI, you would get a move to the Championship or at least league 1

What channel do you watch league of Ireland on out of interest?

What's a reputable source? It's someone who you can actually believe. Haven't seen one link I actually believe yet.

I really like that Bennet is publicly tweeting this. Fair play to him.

Chapman and Armstrong signing would make me very happy.

Conway set to put pen to paper to new deal very shortly..link provided in the Transfer link thread

Not happy with that to be honest. That money could have been better spent elsewhere. How many games will he start next season ?

Glad that Conway is signing too. Good to have a few experienced lads in the squad who love playing for the club. 

Into the gym now Craigy boy and give your twilight seasons a serious rattle

I don't mind as long as there is acceptance on both sides that he isn't going to be a starter. I didn't like it last season when he had a run of starting games when everyone knew he couldn't last 90 minutes and would need to be taken off after 60 minutes. That isn't his fault and I don't doubt his effort and professionalism, its just a sign of the times that he cannot complete 90 minutes any more. It seems silly to me starting him knowing that one of our subs is already used up taking Conway off after an hour.

If he knows and the manager knows that he's a second half sub that can come on and use his experience then I'm happy with it.
