Thursday deadline.

Anyone remember when we randomly tried signing George John from the MLS years ago?

Probably best that one never went through...

Funny thing about that George John. He was a monster for FC Dallas and then he was out injured and never really came back. He was loaned out to West Ham at one point. Just guessing here but Im thinking he was too slow.

LT still reporting upto 4 more. On current rumour you would assume we are looking at GK, CB, CM and forward.

Not liking the lack of a winger or 2 there. We are crying out for some pace and width.

This is a question not a criticism has I’ve never heard of or seen the guy play. Is Trapp from list A,B,C or D.

You would presume its not the A list if it is surfacing this late

Yes but they hope to sign Bolassi

[FGS5635]

Sod it, we sign bollasi and they keep chapman ?

[CambridgeRover]

My theory that the club isn't going to make any more permanents is what I am sticking with. 

I just have this feeling that things aren't quite what the LT are reporting them to be.

[1864roverite]

Why would they print positive vibes only to be met with negatives like yours when there is such an air of positivity around the club and fans?

you are of course allowed your views I doubt many will agree with them.

time for you to join the wave of positivity my mate?????

God, I hope you are wrong!

As many said at the end of last season, this window will tell us so much....

It's not just the LT though, direct quotes from Mowbray that he expects another 4 or 5 in.

Multiple outlets are reporting this bid for Trapp. 

I'm going to take Mowbray at his word. In two days hopefully we will all be buzzin on here

Surely we’d take him till January on loan with a view to purchase or he extends his boro contract?

HOW DOES THE WAGES THING WORK ? IS EVERYTHING NEGOTIABLE ?

As he's got older, he isn't so much box to box. In his early days he'd often get pulled off early but now, with his experience he can last a full 90mins and is a bit more creative.

His forte is slipping in between the front 2.

Busy 48 hours ahead. For the first time in a long time it may be worth watching SSN.

What positions are we looking to sign him? Will they been cash buys and permanent signings?

Same here. Finish work Thursday morning at 6am

[Neal]

If Chapman doesn't even get any minutes then it will be more motivation for him to leave, especially if Bolasie comes in. 

 

I'm 100% positive he'd rather be at Rovers. My guess he will be the deadline day signing for us and everyone will go into meltdown.

Why would he want to play for a manager who has said numerous times that he only sees him as a sub, and clearly doesnt trust him, hence 1 start last season?

To be fair he only got one start because he got  injured.

I know what your saying, but is Chapman ready to start week in week out in the Championship yet?I  would bet that he wouldn't be a starter quite yet for 95% of the sides in the Championship. 

Going off his social media then I think if Boro where to say goodbye we would be top or near top of the list of clubs he would want to go too.
