Covering all basis Bournemouth.

I think we'll only get Giles in, but we're still a midfielder and striker away from being able to stay the distance for the top 2 for me.

Not if everyone is fit but we get that many injuries.

[RoversClitheroe]

We need to probably got it today, we've had all month to give it a real go, cant be left behind with a lack of investment in the squad, we are currently depleted and need at least 4 new players.

LB - Giles

CM

ST

CDM

No chance of Ejaria. He's under contract until 2024 and Reading's wage levels are way higher hence their problems with FFP. 

But he is only reportedly on 12.5 per week so he would fit into our structure.

They pay higher wages but doesn't mean every player they have wouldn't be within our budget

Very quiet Rovers wise so far....anyone at Brockhall?

I think Rothwell staying puts an end to any in comings apart from the lad on loan to be honest.

[Miker]

Giles is a very, very good signing. 3rd most assists in the league this season in a poor Cardiff side.

Giles and Zefuik are quality wing backs in this league. 

[Roboftherovers82]

After the rothwell deal fell threw I think this will be a none exciting last day of window for us sadly I think we will get in one loan and say Hay we tried but could not get other deals over the line but we really need 3-4 more bodies in to help us over last 18 games 

[Miller11]

It’s scandalous really that a Rovers player can get his head turned by bloody Bournemouth. Time to redress that and crack on with getting promoted.

Giles plus another 1 or 2 in, with no first team outgoings would be a phenomenal window and give us every chance.

Agreed, couldn’t do much better. Brilliant wing backs.

[EwoodGlory]

Surely we must be trying to get a striker on loan

I did say in my post that the atmosphere within the squad has gone some way to getting us where we are now. It’s been commented on time after time on this board this season.

so suddenly it’s not a factor?

 

 

 

 

No, what I am saying is that one persons input to that atmosphere will not change the whole that much.

[rovers11]

Bournemouth really going for it. If they get everyone in they want then they're big favourites for 2nd. Still, they can't buy what we have - grit, determination and passion. We're the best in the league for those qualities

It shouldn't.  Where is the Armstrong replacement? 2 windows now.  Also we were told that incomings not related to Rothwell sale.

We need a CM and striker too. Be a disappointing window without that.

The moral of the story is .............

[Displaced Rover]

If Bournemouth don't go up whilst they have parachute payment cash, they'll be back in their natural position (i.e. League 1/2) before long due to FFP. I for one can't wait. Absolute joke that a team like that can be more of a draw than Rovers.

I agree. Giles had 9 assists in 1st half of this season at Cardiff. That must be most of their goals 🤣

We'll be fine if we play them at wing-back, and this provides quality cover in every defensive position. 

Hedges, and hopefully Davenport (if he stays) will provide cover until the return of BBD. 

Maybe one more decent forward, and we are sorted for a top six finish...

[Butty]

Disgusting that some of our fans have been messaging Rothwell’s partner abuse on instagram. Come on lads we are better than that.

We have a £20m replacement for Armstrong, in BBD.

The Arma money has allowed us to pay the wages of our Premier League and German loanees. And to resist any offers for our other top performers.

Many of us said that this window was about keeping the squad together, and we've done that.

All we can do now is get the whole of the town behind the lads for the promotion push, and pray TM sticks with the winning post-Fulham system.

I'm excited.

Abuse against any human is not ok.

[Danny O.Brien]

Yeah Giles and zeefuik/nyambe at wing back would be superb. Even if it meant nyambe covering at centre back. We still need a striker and cover in midfield for me. It's time to shit or bust. I'd rather get fucked by ffp and all that comes with it then let this chance slip. Not my money l know 😂

Cannot abide this kind of thing at all. Absolute troglodytes. Totally braindead morons.

I was worried about this.

This is more likely to impact Joe's motivation than a failed transfer bid...

[Mike E]

Strictly with hope:

With rumours abound that a Bournemouth player might be coming this way, what possibility that Bournemouth are (as Rovers' position was re: Rothwell) getting replacements in before allowing them to leave?

Lowe? Stanislas? Solanke? All of whom could fit Mowbray's wish for versatile forwards.
