A quick winger or 2, a goal grabber and a centre half and I think that'll be job done for January. Chapman/Maddison Tom Eaves /Maja Bauer Those 3/4 would be able to come straight into the first team squad and wouldn't cost a great deal either. Leave the rest of the money until summer then really push on and build a team able to maintain a promotion push.

Save the War chest for the summer. Stability and an outside chance of a play off push would be just the ticket for this season and then hit the ground running next. I like TMs thinking, he is wise and astute and will develop this club back to where we belong if he sticks to his plan.

Looks like I have rattled one of their fans with my comment. Called us dirty!!! They were the worst footballing team that we have played for a couple of years, that's including league1 last season.

He's a warrior. Young David De Gea. Love him!!!

Team to play Newcastle Raya Lenihan Rodwell Mulgrew Nyambe Travis Reed Bennett Dack Nuttall Armstrong Leuitweiller Bell Grayson Smallwood Rothwell Conway Graham

So you would rather Smallwood be in the squad? Evans has been solid this season. I Do not, for one minute, wish any of our players injured. We are a small squad and need them all fit. Fans like you baffle me.

Well done again boys. 2019 starting in the right fashion. Perfect game plan. Subdue them, wear them down and then release Arma. Travis I fooking love you. Big Joe you might well save us a few quid in the transfer market, scrappy goal but at least he was in there for it. Lenihan and Rodwell looked in complete control at the back. Over the moon with this result. Safe journey home to all you that have made the trip, hope there's no bother getting out of the ground. Said I would have 3 beers for every goal we won by tonight. Best get to the fridge. Tony Mowbray's Blue and White Army!!!!!!!

TM will play Raya Bennett Lenihan Mulgrew/Williams Bell Travis Reed Conway Dack Armstrong Graham

This is how I lined up. Raya Nyambe Lenihan Bauer Bell Travis Reed Maddison Dack Chapman Brereton Leuitweiller Davenport Aarons(Norwich) Graham Maja Armstrong Evans

Played this match on fifa last night. Ended 2-2 with Dack getting an 83rd minute equaliser. Put your mortgage on it.

Replace the words baby shark with Bradley Dack and we have a tune!

Downing out Bauer in, Wharton and Grayson to be involved in the squad. I would be more than happy with that. If Downing wants first team football then we shouldn't stand in his way. He did really well last season and was a complete unsung hero I thought. Good luck Paul if you do leave.

I don't think for one minute he will let Travis go. I think he is saying that we are in a similar situation to other clubs in that the phone never stops ringing about certain players and we have to be patient. Other teams are trying to balance their squads and bring in the right people first before letting anyone go.

I agree, and think returning here might just kick start his career.

Think you can take it 2 ways. I hope its true but not how I read it.

Think he is saying that he hopes that is the reason Palmer is off to Bristol City not that it is the reason.

Can't find anything anywhere about it. Really don't see this one happening.

2-2 draw for me. 2 red cards. 1 penalty and a 93rd minute equaliser by Reed.

Any danger of BB not being mentioned in this thread. Keep checking it and seeing its HOT, wondering who we have signed only to see another debate on BB. Any credible transfer news?? Chapman, Gallagher or any other targets?

Maddison as a winger is a no brainer for me. He creates for fun. Imagine him whipping in crosses for Tom Eaves to knock down to Bradley.

Just around the corner from Chapmans Close.

I have thought for a while he could do a decent job there.

Can I just ask, what is the fans opinion on Jacob Murphy? I know the lad and am friends with his parents. He just doesn't seem the same player that he was at Norwich. I would certainly take him on loan at Rovers, but just wondered what your thoughts were on him.

They are a premier league team. Shelvey, Perez and Atsu would walk into our team. So to have those 3 to bring on then they were obviously gonna put all the pressure on us. For me it wasn't a penalty. He dived after no contact. Our boys deserve great credit for their performance yesterday and don't need to be thinking that they let themselves and us supporters down.

For let's say 750,000 I think he would be a steal. Reminded me a bit of Andy Carroll too. Gillingham can keep bringing these players through for us if they like.
