Out of curiosity, what happened before Bosman to players whose contracts ran out? I'm too young to remember.

Clubs still held the players registration, if players moved clubs tribunal would set fee

Spends most his time in the RV though 😉

A few years ago I did one of those walks with Jeff Stelling for prostate cancer , I did the walk from Blackburn to Blackpool got friendly with a couple of Blackpool Fans and one was a member of the Tangerine Knights .. anyway he just text me saying Blackpool have received a £3m offer for Josh Bowler from a championship club reckons it’s us he’s never shared any info like this before so don’t know how accurate it is but if it’s true he must be one from John Parks list , can’t imagine JDT would know so much about him

I'll predict that it isn't us.

Our chief scout has gone to Rangers, he clearly had bigger fish to fry.

I’d put a @Mercerstyle wager on it being anyone in the country but us 😂

Guys…not sure it’s been mentioned but it looks like Blackpool are signing a player today…Yeap that’s it, we’re the only club to yet sign a player…our owners are a laughing stock.

Confirmed.

They've loaned a Man City player.

Just us then.

Beat me to it. Just the 23 clubs in our division ahead of us when it comes to recruitment.

Also interesting it's a midfielder - might be getting him in to pave the way for Bowler to leave.

Not that I think there's a cat in hells chance he's coming here. Although I would be pleased if he did.

Is £3m not a bit steep seeing as he's in the last year of his contract? Would've thought maybe around half that.

do we really need a weekly interview with him every week? GB shouldn't be doing interviews every week or months but at the end of each transfer window and end of the season. That it. How many times do you hear from Man City Director of football or Norwich City Sporting Director? rarely

JDT has answered transfer questions post match of the last 2 games. 

 

Do you still think we don't need any comment from Broughton?

[Tricky]

Always thought Gregg Broughton was a bit creepy, no wonder we haven't signed anyone.

[roversfan99]

We dont need comments, we need actions!

[ItsRoverZ]

Really hope they back him, such a breath of fresh air is JDT

they more than likely don`t want to talk to sharpe

[Nuttall is lost]

Is it time to panic?

[Theaxe15]

JDTs comments suggests he knows as much about what’s happening with transfers as we do. Ie. Bugger all

We seriously need to back the bloke. Unlike Mowbray, IMO, he’ll have some pride, so will be off like a shot if we’ve sold him down the river.

Reminded me of a politician, trying to smile whilst talking. Does anyone know where Greg is? This is who the likes of Sharpe need to be talking to about transfers, (as JDT himself said).

[tomphil]

Carter is like a new signing just as Wharton was when he came in last season.

Blackpool fans think he’s.
