Wow what a statement signing- I am very excited by this one! 500k!

[rovers11]

Cantwell incoming...if we remember to press send, of course.

That's potentially our best signing of the window and a big coup.

[Moptop1]

If this is the case, we still need a keeper, winger, midfielder and another forward.

What do you expect the owners to do???? Spend some of the £41million we’ve banked in the last 12 months???

Mercer's impersonator on twitter is right on the pulse of this.

Mind you, wouldnt be a total shock if he did still not sign.

[MB Rover]

If it’s actually announced, this is a signing I’m all for. Oven-ready and better than what we have already. More to be done before I’m confident in staying up though. 

[roversfan99]

Hopefully it will not end up being a loan. Is it still supposed to be permanent?

So Cantwell not happening glad we spent 2 days on that!

need absolutely bare minimum 3 and I am not confident we get those at all 

Jumping the gun a little here

Genuinely excellent signing. Be curious to see the length of contract. 

26yr old, English, fallen on duller times but was once a £30m rated player. 2 years of form at Ewood and he could literally be sold for more than we got for Sammie Szmodics...

However you figure there has to be some serious sell on % for Rangers, and I would guess maybe even a minimum release clause inserted ala Craig Bellamy 2005.

Happy.

cantwell in for the derby. not exactly pacey but does feel like a bit of a luxury player for us to sign. how does his profile compare to sigurdsson's to those a bit more in the know?

[Tugayisgod]

Sign him in time for Saturday and he has to come straight into the team surely as a No 10.

Drop JRC and play Hedges and /or Dolan/Siggy on the other wing

Suhail about to go into Dick Dastardly mode and plan a dirty trick to scupper the move.

Got more of a fight in him than Sigurdsson. Undoubted premier league quality in there somewhere, need Eustace to get it out of him.

[Polky]

Any details in the Nicko article?

[Angry_Pirate]

Underrated part is getting him with 50+ hours still to go in the window.

You figure it strengthens the appeal of Rovers to a loaning EPL club when they see quality additions like Cantwell who Doak for example can line up next to.

Perhaps.

You would think Cantwell would be signed only upon completion of a medical.  

@Scoobydoposted he was meeting Waggott and Wright this afternoon so hardly think a medical has been done and dusted so quickly.

[alexanders]

Scoring against Burnley 

 

[Angry_Pirate]

Why is he meeting Rovers representatives in London? Who is based down there?

Nice one!

So he will be our highest earner by the sounds of it. Let’s hope he knuckles down and gets his career going again, starting with the winner on Saturday 😎

[Mars Rover]

So 'a large contract for championship standards' and 'taking a small cut in wages' suggests a base wage north of £20kpw, right?

[simongarnerisgod]

swag went to the bog and when he was gone cantwell signed,apparently the geordie maggot is still in there,trying to get out😃if you see a grin on eustace face you`ll know who the culprit is

swag was offering 15 quid an hour,a rent free house in mill hill and free groceries from mottalas mini mart on livesely branch road
