i wish mowbray would open the trapdoor

Burke have is a wide player with no striker it’s a poor window no positives to see at all

[glen9mullan]

Which Burk hatched this plan FFS,

All summer to find a striker, wont pay wages, trying to find a championship striker for less than a million. For gods sake 30 years ago £1 million got you a championship striker. Rovers are a joke

[BRFC4EVA]

We need a strong, pacey proper goal scoring striker though the middle. Not another winger ffs. Especially not on loan.

MOWBRAY OUT

[1864roverite]

Completely underwhelmed by the total inept management of our great club, the incompetent buffoons are a shower of shit!

[simongarnerisgod]

holy ****,even when we were completely skint in the 80`s we managed to find a half decent centre forward,mind you that was when the club was being run as a football club

Get this - I’ve just been told Burke is happening and the loan deal is being brokered directly by Suhail! 

Are you saying Suhail has gone rogue?

That's misinformation for you.  Burke is far superior.

Oli Burke would be a good one

Joe, Can you please why you think this? 

and Surely a permanent striker should have been the priority

[joey_big_nose]

Oliver Burke has a scoring record of about 1 in 10? Not what we are looking for surely?

This proves what has been heavily rumoured recently.... That there is (Yet again under the Venks! !) a huge power struggle going on behind the scenes at Ewood. 

and as always it will be the club & fans that suffer.

He’s a winger.

Yep but I'll guarantee that's not where Tony plans to play him. He'll be back up to Diaz and Sam hopefully. Just for clarity I'm not delighted by any stretch I want a striker too but at 2159 on deadline day that ain't gona happen now is it

Out of interest, if you where the manager would you rather play Dan Butterworth or Oliver Burke?

Depends which one we owned.

People looking at his record and moaning. But he's been playing Premier League & La Liga football. He's got individuality. Strong, pacey, would be great on the counter with Brereton.

Downside is no central forward, but that's hardly Oli's fault.

[booth]

Mowbray desperately trying to sign a bigger berk than him. Priceless.

[SuperBrfc]

A last minute loan and an underwhelming one at that, just sums the lot of them up. No real plan, just wing it and see what happens.

From what I remember Burke used to be quick in his early days, but has beefed up quite a bit since then. Does he still have the pace? The only positives I can take out of it are that he is strong and maybe quick, but a goalscorer he isn't. He's another one who is a winger that Mowbray will be looking at playing down the middle at times.

The rotation, the tinkering, whatever you want to call it, is going to be at its worst this season with all the wide forwards and 'false 9s' at Mowbray's disposal.

[LDRover]

Not having Burke, he's a shit Stuart Ripley. And Rippers is over 50 now.

Jeez ,hope you dont have suhail on speed dial.

I cant see a single positive out of Burke being the chosen one

A decent forward might have seen us do well enough to get TM a contract extension - see every cloud has a silver lining 🙂

Well, he’s not the chosen one. I make him at best 3rd choice.
