After missing out on Harrison Reed and all our other top targets he is negotiating with West Bromwich to bring back wonderkid  Rekeem Harper

And what if he can't hack the pressure of the fee and just goes into his shell ? That's happened plenty of times.  Kevin Davies being the classic example. Then we've blown our dosh.

We need a target man because we can't play like we did at Hull every week, I wish we could. Teams will come to Ewood and deny us space for the quicker players to run into.

We don't know how he will play or handle the pressure. But he has potential and talent and he seems to handle the pressure for Forest and handle the pressure there.

I don't see many teams coming here and play a deeper line. I doubt Brentford will this week but both Samuel and Armstrong are out.

Reed not involved in the under 23's game either.

Pulis said they are looking at 3 in, and there's some not happy that aren't playing that will leave, I'd imagine chapman is one. Be interesting to see where he goes.

In talks with Fleetwood.

We have enough of his type anyway Dack,Palmer or Rothwell play in the position he will want to play

Exactly - in talks with the great Fleetwood. Great player in his prime and hope he does well for them but if he had anything more to offer he wouldnt still be a free agent.

So he needs to develop his composure/finishing....the very things that you want from an expensive striker and the very things that you pay premium money for. 8-12 million is very much premium money for this kid !!!!

We already have Domonic Samuel who you could probably say the exact same things about. There's no getting away from it paying anything over 5/6 million for this lad is genuinely bonkers and straight out of the Venky handbook of football ownership particularly when they are rooting around scrimping and saving on virtually everything else.

Odd times again.

The problem is that we seem to be committed to this deal. Must have spent a lot of time on it and we don't seem to have any other irons in the fire.

If the deal does break down at the final hour we have left ourselves in dire straits and may not have time to get a suitable replacement

Criminal if we knew we had this sort of money to spend at the start of the window.

We can hardly beat Forest down for price, they know the predicament we are in and hold all the aces (bit like the EU!).

We should never have put ourselves in this position.

Further to this story, our local reporter (Paul Taylor of the Nottingham Evening Post) has just stated in a live blog that the £6m bid never actually happened and it was Alan Nixon doing his usual business on behalf of agents.  However he said we did reject a bid worth £10m from an unnamed Prem club on deadline day, which was rejected.  He has also gone on to say that Blackburn do have genuine interest, but he does not know how high Rovers are willing to go.

Good to see Rovers are taking a leisurely approach as the Transfer window ticks on! .

Very interesting post----thanks.

If an unnamed premier league club would have paid that they are hardly going to be accepting less from us are they.They will just wait until January and sell him to that club surely.

If  the post story has any truth to it then if we did have any interest surely it died a long time ago surely we wouldn't be spending 10 million on him and we shouldn't either unless a couple more are coming into can't be spending on a cherry when we haven't bought the cake

There’s also the possibility that the local journo is being fed info from Forest to leak out in an attempt to squeeze a few extra pounds from us 

[Stuart]

Our transfer dealings resemble an eBay bid. We won’t know if we’ve been successful, outbid or even met the reserve until the deadline is up.

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

I sincerely hope that we have a plan d (that isn't a crap striker from QPR)

[CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber]

How have we STILL not signed a striker this summer? It's f8cking laughable. We've got a decent championship team coming to town today and our lack of threat up front will see us suffer IMO. They just need to get it done.

We did get Armstrong to be honest.
