He's a keeper, he doesn't need bedding in like outfield positions. Plus we'd be relying on an unfit Fisher or an 18 year otherwise. Edited August 24, 2020 by Hoochie Bloochie Mama Quote

Maybe but even so my point still stands because it shouldn't have come to this where is the real planning ? We might be better just risking it with a rookie for a few games than signing another duffer because we are desperate. What use another Leutwiler when they can't displace the likes of Walton.

If he's our No 1 and he's fit he'll more than likely play against Bournemouth. If he is quarantined he will have to stay in a hotel for two weeks will he not? I read that as no training or contact with other people. And then there is Mowbrays famed integration policy....... Quote
roversfan99 Posted August 24, 2020 Posted August 24, 2020 Find it a little strange considering he is a 27 goalkeeper so coming into his supposed peak in the next few years and also for a player costing a fee coming from abroad that we are signing him initially on only a 2 year deal. Lets hope we get our arses in gear and get some other transfers wrapped up this week. With only 2 further weeks after this week until the new season and with the added curveball if any foreign signings needing to isolate. Quote
islander200 Posted August 24, 2020 Posted August 24, 2020 Rovers still trying to sort out him not having to go into quarantine 2 Quote

joey_big_nose Posted August 24, 2020 Posted August 24, 2020 With Kaminski landing things are looking up. If we could get Cunningham and Kipre plus an experienced CB and a promising GK that would be a very good window compared to what I expected a week ago. 4 Quote

Would have been a great purchase for sensible money. Just like Kipre would be this year. I just don't get the penny pinching with defenders. Agreed. Don't know how Kipre hasn't earned a Premier League move personally. Quote

Still a target, and with admin and not yet finding a buyer and needing to raise money you'd hope that it will reduce down to something affordable. Quote

Quarantine etc can't be helped but unless we get someone else in i'll stress again it's a very poor show from the management. Hopefully this lad settles in quickly and everyone gives him a chance. I disagree we are living in pretty much unprecedented times to blame the manager for a situation not under his control is wrong. What in your opinion should he have done signed someone he does not want as much so he could play in the carabo cup. Tbh i dont care single jot for the cups this year just extra games I'd have scrapped them all this season. Edited August 24, 2020 by Beanie01289 3 Quote

True, but I suspect the fee would have to drop a lot, and surely teams who can offer more will still beat us to it. Not sure he is Premier League worthy at this stage, would have been a good signing for us but on a tight budget I suspect we may have to look elsewhere. Hopefully we can get someone in before the weekend, although I would be pleasantly surprised. Quote

Cheapish for a prem team to take him at 1.5m if he provides even just cover then he will have been worth it at prem level. 1 Quote
RovingRover Posted August 24, 2020 Posted August 24, 2020 Wonder if Wigan would be interested in signing Derrick Williams or Charlie Mulgrew? We could involve either in a player plus cash swap deal for Cédric Kipré, and both have valuable experience getting a team up from League One to the Championship. Hell, offer both in swap for the lad, Wigan only have 15 players of 1st team pedigree on the books. They might need the numbers. Granted wages could be a stumbling block (see Mulgrew with Portsmouth). 2 Quote
Darwen Rover 007 Posted August 24, 2020 Posted August 24, 2020 I have been critical of Tomo's recruitment but this Kaminski looks very good on paper, great credentials for a decent price?! Quote

Quite possible it's just misdirection.Club does like everyone else being in the dark about our targets. Kipre and Cunningham would be cheaper alternatives to those I'm about to suggest. I can't really see Cardiff letting us have Cunningham for free. Suppose and I say suppose we signed the following players on what they were on before: Westwood GK(30kpw), Brad Smith LB(25kpw, Van Der Hoorn (R)CB(15kpw) and Ayala (L)CB (25kpw) and throw in Kaminiski on say 12kpw and that's our wage saving eliminated and a new centre back partnership. Obviously, we couldn't bring in Martin (CF), assuming we wanted to, without lowering those wages by at least a third. We might get Schmidt for £500k, though I doubt it. We could fund Whiteman (£2m) by selling Williams to one of DC United or LA Galaxy who were rumoured to be ready to put a bid in back in March this year. I don't think I''ll get any support for Williams being sold for £2M. So Whiteman will stay a Mowbray dream. Hopefully, Kaminski passes his medical. Quote

Granted wages could be a stumbling block (see Mulgrew with Portsmouth). Logically they could afford neither, particularly Williams. Anyway, Mulgrew left there last season because things didn't work out. Quote

What length of contract would you like to see? I imagine we will make couple more signings before the start of the season then a couple more before of the 16th October deadline Quote
