A freebie makes more sense, seems like we are still probably unable to pay a fee so hopefully if he signs it turns out to be a brilliant bit of out of the box thinking.

I can’t say I’ve read every post here, but X and Facebook is flooded with positivity over the signing. 

tbh that lot are positive about anything,we could be reduced to holding open trials and they`de be whooping

Think we can rule the Topi Keskinen link out as Sunderland & Boro are sniffing around him…Source saying we had a bid rejected last year.

News from the continent.

Getafe's manager, in protest to their lack of signing, has been called out for playing a friendly with two centre backs up front.  

 

It's unknown if JE will copy this, given I'm not sure we've the centre back depth to do so 

Brilliant. Fair play to that manager.

If JDT hadn't have cooked Waggott and Co the way he did, it's the kind of thing he might have done in a friendly.

[Polky]

So with Yuki signing on a free that’s means we still have £7m left in the budget? 😅

It would have probably improved our attack.

People always say we should play Gallagher because he's great at defending corners 

[BankEnd Rover]

Where’s this centre half a poster said was coming over from Nantes this week? Can’t remember who mentioned it…

[neophox]

Can see us grabbing a player or two from Bordeaux some quality players there... Johnsson is a steady goalie there.

[neophox]

Mafoumbi coming from Nantes.

The thing with the Humphrys link is again, its registered interest, not even a confirmation of a contract offer.

I dont think we should be going for him but if we want him, surely we are beyond the stage of pissing around. Cant be a hard one to get done as other interest wont be at this level and pre season will be over soon.

Agreed, it’s nice to see us starting to get deals over the line but at the end of the day, We’re still 3/4 weeks behind other teams….We need to start upping the tempo and get these deals done asap.

That's what Rovers are doing, looking at players, talking to clubs or agents of demands of the player we want like wages, length of contract or if it club asking what the price is. We will be looking at hundreds of players each week

Yes but we need to get going Chaddy…We seem to be going at a complete snails pace…Budget or no budget, we should have had players in by now. 

[unleaded]

What an agent this Ohashi has to even put in a clause like that ! Amazing .. Just hoping it doesn’t work against us & we wake up to that he’s at another clubs training ground in the morning …..He does look like the real deal … ideal for counter attack style …

I agree totally, we should have 2 or 3 in like keeper and centre back for sure considering we are looking at free agent to fill them. 

I have sign striker, defender and a keeper already if I would have been in charge of the club. Sadly I'm not

I share the worry, let’s be honest any team in the Championship would be able to put a better package on the table.
