Going to be carnage on here later when our only signing is £1m on a sub goalkeeper.

But rightly So, the club have had all summer to get buisness done but looks like we will be pissing about in the loan market. The season has started will be 2 games in after Saturday and no Graham stand in  and no pacey winger

[blueboy3333]

We're going to looking back on the Sam Hart deal of last season's deadline day as a bit of a galactico golden age come 5pm. 

[chaddyrovers]

People really do need to calm down. None of us are at Ewood Park or Brockhall. So really none of us knows 100% what going on unless we are inside the building. 

Jim White is close to McClaren so I can see him being right about Freeman medical.

Seen the guys stats? Third best assists in the champ, 5 goals, second highest amounts of dribbles with the ball, quick, great dead balls - Iv never seen him play but that along with QPRs reaction suggest he’s no D lister...much better pedigree than Madison 

He's played in the middle of a midfield 3.  Had one good season at champ level.  Creative player.  But we have Dack and Palmer that will do that.  Don't see where he fits in.  Don't tell me this was the 'A' list guy.

Clearly not signing anyone permanemt in a priority position based on Sharpe's most recent comments.

I think it's you who needs to calm down, pal. And you don't have a clue who Jim White is 'close' to. Just try and relax.

I get a sense nothing’s happening. My anger is starting to build. I’ll be fuming if we don’t get anyone in.

Calm down dearie, it's only a football transfer window......

OK, can people stop saying he would be out of position on the wing? He has played most of his career left wing 

He would be out of position on the right wing though

[Doaksie]

And a pointer on Wes Foderingham - like a modern day Alan Fettis. I would avoid on a free, at £1million I would be gutted with that. And as a back-up. A very under-whelming rumour, which is hopefully rubbish

Chaddy the window closes in 4 hours.If players where having medicals or fees agreed we would know about it.

Yes we keep our buisness quieter these days but we knew Armstrong had signed before it was announced  same with Palmer

He's a left footed attacking midfielder. So to the left of Dack I'd imagine, with Armstrong to the right and Graham up top.

Maddison or Freeman? Who would you want?

Jim White read out a text from a Rovers fan. People are now using that as a source. 

Fernandez is not going to say Freeman is going nowhere while he's undergoing a medical.

It was probably a text off Chaddy.

Looks like a lot of championship and L1 clubs are digging their heels in and refusing to sell. Spurs have given up on Grealish. Us with Bauer and Freeman. 

Seems a difficult window this year for many clubs. 

I can see a CF on loan rather than permanant and not much else.

Can't imagine Palmer and Chelski being too happy with that.

Shame, we'll have all this creativity and nobody to put the ball in the net for the last quarter of each game!

Didn't overlap with Dack at Gills as far as I can see

I'm sure their paths will have crossed before. Dack comes from Greenwich and Freeman from Dartford, both came through the youth setups at Charlton and Gillingham. Probably move in similar circles. May not have played together but safe to assume they will know each other or have similar social circles.

[AdamRochina]

We have urgent areas on the pitch that needs filling, we've had all summer to sort it out , we desperately lack pace out wide and a brute up top , disaster if we start Millwall game with no one else coming in, they best be some special flipping loans !

To be fair, all the talk about potential meltdowns and 'Positive vs Negative VII: This time it's still duller than dishwater'

If we don't have sufficient signings by the end of today, it's not acceptable.

We've known for ages when the deadline is. Fair enough if we're signing loans with a view to buy as well, but we need numbers in ASAP, I don't think anyone can realistically argue with that.

Not realistically no......

Pretty chilled to be honest. The only area I think we're desperate is CF but if we can get someone decent on loan with a buy agreement then I'll be pretty content, especially as in these situations you can get better value... Like Cairney. Would like to see Chapman sign still though, Pulis doesn't fancy him, he wants to be here, we want him here, it fits. 

 

What I don't want to see is us recklessly wasting money on players we don't desperately need. I don't want to see Mowbray not being able to bring players in due to embargo.
