Absolute nonsense. He was asked and said that Rothwell didnt want to be considered which ultimately he had to admit. He also went into detail about how he totally understands the situation, it is a considerable pay increase which can help to set him and his family up for life and that he once quadrupled his own wage during a transfer so showed empathy. I know you dont like Mowbray but lets not make out as if he fed Rothwell to the wolves.

Criticising Mowbray for making information public that should have been kept private isn’t absolute nonsense. Tell Rothwell no chance you’re moving, tell the press no chance he’s moving and the situation we’re in now would have been entirely avoided.

No one is blaming Mowbray for the (probably criminal) abuse that Rothwell and his family have received, but he should have had the sense to know that his post match comments would have incensed the fan base and made things very difficult if the move broke down.

thank you RV Blue, my exact thoughts, people quick to jump.

I'd never ever abuse someone for wanting to move clubs and earn more money, thats just life.

Where did all this mi-information come from yesterday? Bid accepted, Rothwell down in Bournemouth ready to sign...instead no bid accepted and probably around the training ground today.

Great move by the club to keep him. What is £3m worth to a club for one of your best players when you're going for promotion. It's peanuts. 

Where do you think it came from, all the so called itk's on here spreading their garbage and conspiracy theories. They are the only people to blame for this predicament, not the manager, not Venkys and not Rothwell

Hull signed Forss too, wouldn’t of minded him either. 

Nothing official on Longman or Forss...

 

That we havent looked on Forss is amazing? Mean we're after better alternatives? He would choose Rovers play off push...

That's the guy I wanted us to sign. Good move for Hull.

Just on Bournemouth, how rattled are they by Rovers? 😁. Sign whoever you want, Cherries, you aren't finishing above us!

Can you imagine the screen in the locker room tomorrow. Joe comes back in, tail between his legs. Apologies to the lads, the room is silent.  Only sound is Travis grinding his teeth. Tension about. The door swings open and in walks Diaz. Big smile in his face buzzing from his international performance. “Hey lads!  Anything new?”

Can see the lancs live blog now:

15:00 - Don't get disheartened, moves are being made

17:00 - No honestly, Rovers are actively looking

19:00 - Transfer news incoming...

19:30 - Chapman joins Burton on a free

20:00 - Rovers are in for an unnamed striker

20:30 - Giles gets announced

20:45 - That's not Rovers done yet!

21:00 - Davenport leaves

22:00 - Rumours come out we offered 120k for Charlie Austin 3 hours before the deadline

22:30 - Rovers sign another right back, just for the crack

23:01 - That's Rovers done for the day, let's not forget Rovers have kept Rothwell and Dack is basically a new signing anyway.

Just caught up on 32 pages with no knowledge of what's been going on last 20+ hours. Wish I hadn't bothered....

Basically, Rothwell going, Rothwell not going. We've put a daft bid in for someone at Bournemouth, which may or may not be true. We want Giles, Paterson and Bournemouth want to sign every available player in League 1 and the Championship.

He did not say Rothwell did not want to be considered.

He said he made the decision to leave Rothwell at home himself as he didn't want to be sat there worrying if Rothwell’s head was in the right place.

Completely out of order from Mowbray for me, should have stayed in house. He turned a storm in a teacup into a major issue.

All that said, old news now, hopefully that's the end of it and we can move forward with Rothwell, Nyambe, Lenihan, AND 3 or4 quality additions to the squad which are badly needed.

Love the part where you completely ignore that Rothwell actively asked to speak to another club, a direct rival in the current league positions.

Right back it is. From Sharpe:

One player who Rovers have looked at is Exeter City right back Josh Key.

Key has played 31 times for Exeter this season and 82 times in all having come through the ranks.

He is under contract until 2023 and was the subject of £1m bid from Sunderland last summer.

The 22-year-old is a player the club have looked at in this window. See if anything more emerges in the next few hours.

Right back certainly a position Rovers have strengthened in this window, with the loan arrival of Deyovaisio Zeefuik and James Brown, but still the uncertainty over the long-term future of Ryan Nyambe.
