Leighton Clarkson's message to Rovers

Clarkson returns to Liverpool | rovers.co.uk

LC19 on Instagram: "When I first knew @rovers wanted to sign me on loan there was only one place I was going. Although it hasn’t gone to plan I would like to…"

Classy. Good lad, I hope he becomes top class.

I wouldn't selling Brereton in January for any money

If they get the right offer, he’s gone! I think there’s only Newcastle even capable of doing the deal of the teams that might come for him! 

[Mattyblue]

It really doesn’t work like that Chaddy. If a Newcastle came in for BBD, he’s gone.

Newcastle need proven PL players to stay up. 

I don't see any bid and Like I said I wouldn't be selling Brereton for.any money. He is crucial to us going up

[Ossydave]

Newcastle going for Trips signals their intentions to be honest, tried and tested players. I'd be amazed if they have any interest in Brereton, he'd be a gamble without a doubt.

 

[slowmo]

If the profit on a sale was made available for team strengthening, then I could except a 25-30 million sale . 

Thought Newcastle would be a bad move for him , in the summer he would be replaced with a bigger fish .

Tarkowski, Mee, Pope and Cornet would be good options for them this window!!

What promotion worth to the club?

A random twitter account seems to believe We've rejected a bid from Saudi Arabia for BBD.

With a wilting red rose and three red kisses. It's probably some bored 12 year old Dingle having a break from a family night of fun and games.

My colleague is a staunch Sheff Utd fan and reckons Burke is honestly the worst player he’s ever seen. Check their social media handles and most fans agree with this assessment….

 

A lot of our fans would have said that about Brereton 12-18 months ago...

This worries me. We are very light if one or two of our midfielders get crocked. Maybe should have rotated him in for a few games.

Fair point and he’s only 24….he’s been sold for big money but his goal scoring record is horrific! 

[garnersfags]

I really don't want to go back to the era of ITK discussions, but has anyone else heard continuing rumours of the swap deal with BHA for BBD and the 2 loanees? 

I'm hearing it's a done deal but have assumed this can't be true as there's been no other comment about the rumour for the last couple of weeks. 

I would really like this story to be quashed asap. 

[roversfan99]

That would be so unlikely as it would require firstly a valuation for Brereton but also mutually agreed valuations for 2 other bright prospects within that deal, not to mention the assumption that both would like to sign for a Championship side and also then be able to agree wages baring in mind that we will not be paying their full wage and that we are under a strict wage ceiling as shown with our inability to sign up our own assets. Think its safe to dismiss.

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

Straight swap ? I don’t think that one will run.

It's not as good as that.

Swap deals are "never" true. Too complicated regarding valuations and contracts.

Doesn't make sense for Rovers to agree a fee before the window either. If they where to sell BBD an auction would be preferred to drive up the value. The Brighton loanees can alway be bought outright. 

That rumour haven't reached Twitter as far as I can see either

To be fair, he has mostly played as winger. Think it was Wilder as Sheff Utd who used him as striker (only a goal to show for it, albeit a winner at Man Utd).

More worrisome that most of his former clubs fans describe as pure pace and nothing else. Would think there are better options out there

[rigger]

If I was brokering a deal with Brighton for Diaz. I would ask for : £15 million, plus Khedra and Van Hecke on permanants, with no sell on clauses either way. And Brighton loan Diaz back to us for the rest of the season.

Today showed that we will need some reinforcements for the rest of the season. It's a long, hard battle to get promoted and with tiredness and injuries likely to be a factor as the season wears on, the squad as it stands needs some quality additions to see us through for a play-off place never mind an automatic spot. Signing 2 or 3 key quality players could be the difference between promotion and the season falling away and staying down. 

agree. the boys, especially díaz, looked absolutely knackered today

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Venkys now face THE biggest Acid test of their tenure at this Club...we are in a fantastic position and our hand is strong.

They either back us for Promotion,and the financial riches that would follow,or they sell for short term gains and wreck our best chance in a decade.

January.....do or die,shit or bust.

Aye, more than likely.

Shared it, just in case.

I think he has been sent back so that we can bring another midfielder in. Mowbray loves stockpiling centre mids. I'm sure we'll see at least one come in this month.
