I can't believe it myself though.  I'd be astounded if it happened

70%? What does that mean in real terms? Sounds kinda like fee more or less agreed but personal terms not discussed yet?

Any idea whether this is permanent or loan to a view (presumably with a big loan fee)?

I'm 98% BA won't be joining Rovers. Would be fantastic but very very doubtful, the lad is earning £40,000+ at Boro

Conspiracy theory here, but I could see someone higher up thinking it's a good idea to have a bid accepted knowing we won't be able to agree personal terms. Then you turn around and say we tried but the player wanted too much for our wage structure. But at least we look ambitious to the fans...

Sorry, i have no idea just got told that it's 70% done and Waggott is going over to Newcastle tomorrow for a meeting about it. 

Therefore, if anyone sees Waggott at Ewood tomorrow then I may be wrong!

Fee agreed? Not a clue. Loan? Not a clue.

I hope he booked his train ticket in advance as prices go up on the day... he wouldn’t like that.

That implies meeting an agent to me or somebody from Middlesbrough.

I genuinely bumped into him once on a return from Euston, standard class on the first off peak one, watch the pennies and all that!

Tony is going to go mental at all these potential leaks. 70% complete and in the public domain before across the line....etc.  He wasn’t too impressed last time he thought someone was leaking information.

Mogga was on the radio talking about AA yesterday. Said eventually that he will start up front (which is where AA wants to play) but that for now he'll continue to play out wide. What's been good recently is that we are actually putting the ball in between the full back and CH for him to run on to and not just giving him the ball out wide. It's frustrating to watch him making those runs and him never getting the ball. It must be immensely annoying for him. Again though it comes down to Travis' emergence. We seem to be a bit higher up the pitch and able to play through the 'thirds' at the moment. It's easier to play someone in on the deck from 20 yards than it is from 50. It's amazing the difference Travis has made really. I was all for the Smallwood and Evans combo continuing too?

Hard to pick out the run when our previous midfield only passed sideways or backwards.

Doesn't necessarily mean anything. Do you have thoughts on this as a transfer if it does happen?

Cheers. Have you heard that it would be both him and Gally, or are you speculating on that part?

If, and i have to say its a big if we got both, what happens with Brereton? Does this suggest Mowbray knows he's got a dud? Or does he send him out on loan to get him some games?

I would be very surprise if we signed him. Not sure this fit the signings we have been making over the last 18 months. 

Where has Gallagher does..

I would be very surprised if BA comes to us, but I would see it a strong a big statement of intent. One of the best strikers in this league if used correctly.

Gallagher can not play wide and Assombolonga I have never seen play wide.

He has played wide under Pulis due to he wont play 2 up front.

Don't want either him or Gallagher to be used wide. Would prefer an actual wide man wide. 

Neither of the 2 would dislodge Dack and Graham, nor would they be effective wide. Assombolonga a far better player though.

I'm sure that's  happened in the past after all an enquiry is just an enquiry until real numbers are placed on the table.

P.S Don't worry about the 'opposites' .. ??
