May be he won't sign a new contract so we decided to sell.. 

Actually that's my over riding issue at the moment more then signing any other new players.

 

We lose Rothwell, Nyambe, lenihan, Kaminski and Diaz at the end of the season as free agents. After that the only sellable asset left is a Bradley Dack stuck in the garage for repair. I genuinely believe the first 2 will not sign a contract as in Rothwell case Brentford/ similar clubs are intrested and in Nyambe he became so disillusioned  that players who weren't right backs where favoured in front of him.

 

We should be doing everything we can to get the other 3 to sign. We lose all 5 next season we are going to go straight to league 1

Yes, the money would be much better spent there than forking out on another set of loan fees for another bunch of Premier League teenagers.

Tony: “Before the window shuts I’m hoping we can add five or six more.”

I don't see in what world we, or pretty much anyone at our level, can get 5-6 players in 10 days, but....let's see?

I mean he’s explained it enough times.

He has no reason to lie, if he could have the players now he would. Why wouldn’t he?

[Fraserkirky]

5/6 players, crikey. 

Assume one of them is Khadra the winger, probably still need 2 x Defenders, 2 x Midfielders(One attacking, one box to box) and a #9.

Squad will be looking very good if he can pull it off.

Daily Mail claims that Morgan Rodgers is going to Bournemouth, (loan with an obligation to buy) we have been passively linked with him. Also a mention for Bournemouth and Fulham wanting Obafemi as well as ourselves although I suspect that we are out of that chase now.

I think the key to getting the lads signed up will be whether they regularly feature in their favoured position and  feel valued. If they get bounced in and out of thevteam because of a young loanee that has to play because the big clubs say so, then they will look at other options. 

The best way to keep them all. Get promoted.

Sounds like it's going to be a busy end to the window for us. After weeks and weeks of nothing in the transfer market, there should finally be a bit of excitement. Let's see who we bring in.

Kean Bryan, Tommy Doyle, Obafemi? I wonder who else is a possibility.

fingers bloody crossed, ey?

Speculating about Nyambe is just shockingly poor and without a shred of evidence! Everyone who supports Rovers knows he has issues with hamstrings and has done over the past 4 years. I am still amazed how doom-mongers jump on the wheel less wagon without foundation! 

I am still very much in the Mowbray out camp but credit where its due, we have snaffled 7 points from games I genuinely thought we would lose.

Lets see what the next 2 weeks brings in terms of incomings.

As for Rothwell? Well he has done okay so far this season but only in fits and spurts and nowhere near enough to get into the Premiership particularly Brentford !

I see what you did there....give it 5 games.

Although I am a big Chapman fan and always have been since he was farmed out unfairly last season.

Farmed out unfairly? Done nothing to suggest that he’d make an impact in the championship before his loan last season. Unconvinced that he’ll do much this season either although last night was more promising.

Yeah, I think we could have used him last season.  Not like we were banging on the promotion door eh?

[tomphil]

Nyambie was in the thick of the rough stuff v Millwall and had a good game so he might well be carrying a knock or something.

When he was being left out for Bennett it looked ropey and we know he's one of TMs tactical victims at times. He's got the benefit of the doubt at the min though but if they sell him that's an own goal.

I would say back up left back, centre midfielder, wide man, number 9 striker and a centre back. At least 2 of those must be permanent signing

[neophox]

Well we need to get Nyambe to sign a new contract asap...why wait...

[BlackburnEnd75]

Where do we realistically need?

A centre forward

A winger

Cover at centre half

Someone to challenge/ cover pickering at left back.

Do we need another centre mid? We have travis davenport Rothwell buckley Clarkson Johnson

But that’s in hindsight. You’re not picking Chapman ahead of Elliott. He would have got minimal game time here. The loan went well and hopefully he can now contribute. He’s had chances before and not taken them so I don’t think we missed out last year at all.

No it's not.  I said it last year before he was sent out. Hindsight is after the event 

[Beanie01289]

Rothwell got taken off last night that can only be because during the game Brentford launched a bid.

[Beanie01289]

Also to whoever said that Cooper would not sign cause the clubs a shambles thats fair it is but he plays for f****n Millwall I'd rather be a shambles than play for a club with a fan base like that with a manager who makes excuses for them.

Think your view is very wide of the mark. Clubs do not submit bids during the game!

Rumour of a player coming in today? Also mentioned in the LT that one could be coming in.
