Tom Barkhuizen anyone?

 

Don't like his goal record one bit, but then again that includes spells at being played out wide and even as a wing back. 

 

We need numbers across the park, so i) if he's completely injury free, and ii) asking for sensible wages then I wouldn't be against taking him as a squaddie. Under no circumstances can we be signing him with expectations of him being a key goal threat.

I see they've released Connor Ripley as well.

If we suddenly announce he's signing, I'll know Mowbray is hanging around.

Troy Parrott. Mentioned him a number of weeks ago.  Scored last night for MK Dons.

What about Barry Bannon from Wednesday if they don't get promotion? 

Always looked a decent player to me and seems to give 100 %.

Just put a great ball through for someone in the build up to Wednesdays goal just now!

Lads a good player, but we couldn’t afford his wages.

Depends or not if he wants to rough it in league 1 again. 

With only a few years left as a pro, would he rather play in the championship for a bit less? He's hardly likely to be skint. 

Be interested to know what his weekly salary at Wednesday is tbh.

good player,getting to the veteran stage now,to say we can`t afford his wages when he plays for sheff wed,who are completely brassic and a division below us is a bit of a daft claim,i did hear there was a lad at chorley who has  a big future,we could`nt afford his wages apparently😁

Managers at BRFC get owner input to allow a competitive midtable budget and pay several players 14k pwk or above.

Bannan is 32 and only has 1 year left on his contract for a league 1 club. 
Of course we could afford him if we were interested.

Loyal to Wednesday, I’m told he’s on £20k per week, highest paid player in league 1, which puts him over our wage structure.

Good player, sublime pass for the goal last night, good shout Aqualung.

Very technically gifted player is Bannan, but really not what we need in my view. Bearing in mind that our midfield next year is already going to be including Buckley and possibly Dack, we need someone with the physicality to get about the pitch better than Bannan at this stage in his career.

Can't afford the wages of a mediocre player? Are things really that desperate now?

[Mattyblue]

I can imagine he’s on a ridiculous wage for that level as he was bought when their owner was throwing big money about…

Totally agree - in the two play off matches he disappeared for long spells - we need a physical player with good height (if we dont play three centre halves the team looks to be lacking in height).

About what we're paying for Ayala then.

[Angry_Pirate]

At Rovers, Bradley Johnson has a better goals to game ratio than Joe Rothwell.

Would he come to probably sit on the bench ?

[Southside Rover]

I think as was discussed in January, there is some real talent at Derby and most wouldn't want to be in League 1 I would think.

Poaching Rooney and some of the select who would want to follow could fill a lot of out gaps on relatively modest money considering the circumstances I would think

Well if the Championship team of the season is anything to go off - it should be him and Lenihan* as first choice, with Wharton as back-up.  

EDIT* - I've somehow got it in my head that Lenihan is staying. Not sure why.

I would put Ayala ahead of him.
