Looks like Mowbray was bluffing.

Be more than happy for Armstrong to come back.

Hopefully a permanent deal as well.

[TruRover]

I reckon a fee of 1.5 million would be about right, anything more would be too much for Arma. Think the signing makes sense tho my only concern is he isn't a proper winger and isn't the kind of striker who fits our system. Happy tho if this deal goes through his goals last season were vital. 

[Doaksie]

Has Rafa nibbled at the D list bait, like a malnourished little pescado? Arma is/was never a D-lister.

So A, B and C lists all failed then?

Would be happy if it happens, could come right in with no bedding in either 

We have lists and they are not, and have not been, at the top of those lists.

“They are two young boys and I think it’s right that they are not right at the top of the lists...

Read that as Chapman and Armstong not being A list but certainly not D list either!

Signed for 1.25m 

At that price I think he is a really good signing

Seem confident. Like that.

[riverkiller]

Yeah, I want players who seem keen to play for us. Armstrong seems to be that type.

[Igloo5090]

If Mowbray was bluffing that’s such a clever move from him, well played.

Looks like Agent Benno will be busy tomorro!

Funny what spending a bit of money on a player most of the fans like does to the morale of the fan base!

Nice one mate. Appreciate the info. ??

[Neal]

Something doesn't sit right here, only yesterday or day before he was only an "option" but we had "other targets". 

 

If its true the only thing I can conclude is if Rovers have said.. Here's what we're willing to pay, let us know but we have other targets so don't leave it too late... They've dangled on transfer market without anyone biting, panicked and taken the money.

Is I the defo permanent or loan?

[Dreams of 1995]

Villa bidding 10m plus 10m add ons for Yerry Mina makes a mockery of them being skint. 

FFP is a lie

Is it perm or loan? That egg Jamie Mconnell spouting off that it’s a loan on Twitter! ?

Apologies in advance if you are Mr Mconnell ????

[Doaksie]

Graham up top, with Arma, Dack and Palmer behind. Lots of variety in that supporting trio, and if allowed to switch and change, the potential to really hurt teams. 

Some actual competition for Graham would be nice.

Never in a million years is that going to happen. Barcelona or Villa? Lol.

I think he might play Arma up top away from home when we are looking to counter attack with pace.

Just don’t think anybody knows what’s going on, which is how it should be. Keep it quiet and get your man.

Although it was at home, the goal he scored at Ewood against Wigan springs to mind in that line-up. Another option.
