Chaddy we have been saying this for weeks and you have found a way to defend it 

glad your coming round to seeing the circus evolve around us 

The club should be investing some of the money we received on players that will help us get a playoff place and hopefully promotion, not looking for players who could be gems in the future. I don't mind taking a gamble on one of them but we need a striker who will provide us with those crucial games when we need them and someone like BTA would do this or even Riis would be decent enough. even RF99 suggestion of Luton's forward Jacob Brown would be good shout.

But we have been saying they won’t fork out the funds for these players 

each of those players will cost over 2million

Riis is out of contract in 5 months time, would he really cost so much? 

Also we have received 30m plus in the last 12 months and we spend around £2.5m in the summer. We not spend £5m plus in the window on 2 or 3 players who could impact our season and playoffs chances this season but also be starters for next season and beyond(question to the club not yourself btw)

Everyone has been saying this all window and you’ve argued against everyone 😂 welcome to the real world.

Not sure how or why the u-turn but we have been saying this for 2/3 years now 

they should be 100% but they wont

The fight for ITK status on X is laughable. Nathan jones does have a mate who agent but the lad thinks he knows everything that’s going on behind the scenes

I just don’t get it 

if your a rovers fan why would you create an account and make stuff up like I genuinely don’t get it. 
 

if your seeking attention surely there’s better ways as opposed to 80% negative responses

The lad is far too smug for someone who clearly isn’t very bright

Thankfully not the most reliable of sources! 

Might arrive at the same time as Coventry fans dropping off Thomas-Asante 🙄

I fully expect Kargbo to join us before the end of the window. He's cheap, on low wages, and no other teams are in for him. They're all conditions required for a player to join us.

It hurts to say it but we are a shambles of a club and one whose squad gets weaker every window.

If Eustace leaves in the summer, which I expect, then we'll be big favourites for relegation next season. That's how bad I think we are and how good Eustace is. Wrexham and Brum will come up so that's two more clubs with more financial muscle than us. Being in 5th right now really does mask the massive problems at the club and downward trajectory we are on.

Almost 8pm on Friday still nothing to go off. 

I'm off to order a takeaway and watch crap TV 📺

Leeds don’t look like they need anybody 

but there are rumours latte lath is someone they are looking at 

the dept Leeds have is ridiculous 

James Aaronson Solomon gnonto ramazani piroe Joseph - the luxury there to rotate is scary

Young Chaddy’s gone rogue. Operation ‘Lets wait till the end of the window FFS’ has been aborted.

Paris Maghoma who did poor in the playoff final isn't getting a kick at Brentford.  Would be a better PL cheap loan than Billy the Kid part 2

Latte Latth to Leeds wont happen.  a team in the USA have already bid £20M for him and Leeds are not matching that

Seems to be a pattern emerging with all of our transfer activity this Jan.

It's bonkers that even when: 

The selling club are happy to sell

We are desperate to buy 

The player is on no money and the move is an upward move 

 

You still can't be sure we are going to sign them

no u-turn at all but I have said we should spend money this window. Mentioned Riis, BTA, Brewster names previously. Our season will be determine by the quality of striker we sign this window. Nothing us. Sign a quality striker we will be challenge for playoffs and I think get them. Don't and take a punt on a striker like the striker from Scotland and our playoffs hope goes

Wilder knows what he needs and he has the money now to do so. Just like we have money to spend some on a good striker and winger

young Chaddy? 

We haven't signed anyone yet in terms of striker but going for a striker from Scotland, who isn't exactly scoring loads there, doesn't scream playoff challenge push does it?

Be careful, Waggot will come running (or as close as) if there's falling pennies loose and unaccounted for

Listened to Jackson's podcast. He doesn't think what is happening in India is Venky's fault. Can't get my head around that statement.

Who's fault is it then? (According to Jackson)

It doesn’t but neither does Brewster who you have mentioned
