The worst part of it for me is that there will still be countless fans defending them should we bring in just loans / a couple for peanuts (More than likely).
‘We can’t compete with X & Y’…‘it’s not a good market right now, January will be different’…‘we’ve had a good start to the season, get behind the lads FFS’.

JE describing Cantwell as a ‘very good player’ in LT article and is one of 6 on a shortlist (not sure if that means 6 in Cantwells position or 6 in total)

[Emerald Isle Rover]

The whole process doesn’t/hasn’t made sense in years and there’s two common denominators venkys/waggott

JE says he wants players in ready to go (I know there’s an international break which allows for 2 weeks) but cantwell hasn’t played in what will be 4 months

Of rumours are to be believed ‘if’ being the word and JE is not signing off on some signings rudy and park had ready to go then he really can’t complain. Germain could be anything but what he would be at a low fee would be another target option up top with match fitness and confidence 

the persistence on dembele is baffling he’s been out of brum squad for a while now so how/why is it still not done or even rumoured to be close?

goalkeeper (biggest priority) travers likely to Burnley rushworth to hull - leaving iversen on the list Elliot had - again no movement which is showing signs of ruddy

there is no hiding place this time around it’s a new recruitment team there’s been a statement last week regarding finances so to me it’s waggott and always has been him

He lost his way before going to Scotland.  Bournemouth loaned him from Norwich when Mowbray was still our manager, he did nothing for them in the championship (in a side that ultimately cruised to second place, so should have been ideal for a luxury player) and was dropped from the squad entirely in the last few games of the season.

The following season he had a purple patch of about month for Rangers, but has done very little aside from that

I watch Rangers regularly, the lads a good player and would improve this team. But his wages at Rangers are around £25k a week a mark I believe, that seems out of our structure by about £20k!

It’s impossible for anyone to think Cantwell will happen with our reputation.

He will be offered peanuts and then him and his agent will go to the next club in line.

The headline later will be “Cantwell snubs Blackburn”

[BankEnd Rover]

Place interested in Travers now….Come on Down Ruddy.

He is a very skillful player, but for me his attitude is exactly what Rovers do not need

[philipl]

Cantwell is a big rescue job but a major signing if Eustace can do the restoration.

[FE123]

3 years ago 😂😂😂bet he wasn’t expecting to be going on loan to Rovers in 3 years time. Norwich wanted a fee of 40-50 million.

[BankEnd Rover]

Seeing as we’re running out of keeper options Iverson seems like the only decent one left…His wages won’t be far off Cantwells, no chance we are paying for them both so if it’s either or, we better be telling Cantwell to forget todays meeting.

Keeper is Priority!

Nixon said "looking at a foreign one that has come out of nowhere" when asked about where we go now for a goalkeeper 

It's absolutely pathetic..40+ million brought in and we were obviously hoping Brighton or Bournemouth would do us a deal on Rushworth or Travers, with us paying a fraction of the wages.Soon as other more ambitious championship clubs enter the race we leave it 

[islander200]

Ruddy was on the bench for Newcastle,  they are trying to move out the lad they signed from Forest.

I don't see Ruddy leaving even if they sign Trafford

Leo’s coming home!

[jim mk2]

Last night should have been a huge warning as to the weakness of this squad in terms of numbers and quality and the reinforcements needed urgently if we’re not going to end up in another relegation battle 

Eustace knows it and should be laying into Waggott this morning demanding action in the next few days. At least 3 players are needed, “oven ready” as one blond haired idiot said, to play in the Championship

Where is this? Doesn’t surprise me. So frustrating how clubs make players available in the last week of the transfer window which makes it a mad rush for everyone.

Would personally prefer a proven championship keeper, like the 3 linked, but hopefully this new one can bring similar form to Kaminski rather than Wahlstedt.

Finally my Hungarian football knowledge will pay off. Had a good season last year, started the year a bit shakey. Problem with HU football is it's completely dominated by Ferencváros money wise, or by Puskás Academy influence wise (they're backed by the PM), and the other teams seem to play musical chairs each year. Luckily this guy is a Puskás Academy product.

If this is true, it will be VERY hit or miss, but the last guy with Hungarian ancestry we had scored 30+ goals so here's hoping.

Mentions a fee of £1 million, wages not an issue.Rovers still keen on Ruddy but won't risk being turned down at the last minute

So some random Hungarian that almost certainly wont be first choice.
