I hope this signing is true not because of this signing impacting our squad particularly but just because it’s come out of the blue so hopefully means they can pull something off further up the pitch tomorrow

All loans have to be registered it doesn’t matter their age. I’d imagine if they have others lined up or manage to make some more signings Leonard/siggy leave and assume Scott Wharton won’t be registered this season as he’s not due to be fit until April/May

To be fair it’s genius from waggot and rudy…can’t mess up a deadline day signing this year if you don’t try to sign anyone!

So coming to the end of the penultimate day of the window. Any deals that happen tomorrow are reported rumours today as any deadline day rumours never materialise with the timescale to get it done. So on that basis it’s 1-3 out of: egyptian lad danns o’brian we seem unlikely to land 2 out of 3 due to costs so our most likely end of window outcome is nothing or danns on loan

I agree with your general view on this but in fairness 90% of this board were screaming for us to sign danns from Liverpool

Anyone on Nixon patron? What striker are we losing? someone posted now. Didn’t Nixon say we were after a striker? By the sounds of that we might only be after one now because Leonard is injured?

Come on now! I’m all up for opinions and debates but let’s not just say things that aren’t true. I don’t want Bamford and don’t think he solves our problems but at this current time in their respective careers he is clearly better than Leonard. And Jed Wallace is clearly an upgrade on never available and uninterested sigurdsson.

Can I have 11:00 tomorrow morning in the sweepstake of the inevitable Nixon tweet saying Cantwell deal and/or others have hit last minute snags and now off

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

Just the obsession with this one player. I can’t keep up with this website we should sign a striker because he’s cheap and in good form but everyone is having a meltdown over signing a keeper that’s cheap and in from! Let’s be honest none of us know how any of these foreign signings will work out so it’s really not worth over analysing it. We need to address positions and if we do then judge when they’ve played.

Your obsession with rovers signing a 29 year old Japanese striker nobody had ever heard of until we were linked in August is really bizarre!

Not literally obviously as it’s a loan 😂

If it’s true I’m guessing it is a keeper

Shocked at how Jackson barely even referencing transfers. Just regurgitating interviews from Saturday. You’d think he’d be asking questions and reporting the transfer plans seen as there is only 5 days of the window left and we need plenty.

Why is the choice Blackburn or Madrid?

When the report states his salary amongst other things are a major stumbling block I wouldn’t hold out much hope

Thats not even remotely true! Just the same as Nathan jones just says 10 different things and people remember the 1 he gets right. Broken clock basically

Yeah I’m sure the Ipswich board spend their Sundays going through Alan Nixon’s Twitter feed. That should close the deal!

It’s funny the hate John eustace gets on here. Any prediction I’ve seen with us not in the bottom 3 the main reason given as to why we will stay up is John eustace.

Waggott can’t lie straight in bed so I wouldnt listen to a word he says. To be honest I wouldn’t be surprised if we didn’t make another signing. I also wouldn’t be surprised if we made 5/6 including 3/4 loans. Now the quality of those incomings if that did happen is a different conversation.

Seems like the obvious thing is waggott is messing people about so that in the end Szmodics hands in a transfer request or dummy spits enough so that waggott can do a slimy interview in September saying we were rejecting all bids but the player asked to leave. Try and make the player look bad and not him

I know it’s highly unlikely but if Szmodics did end up staying I’d feel much more confident about the season ahead.

Not sure it’s as complicated as everyone is making out. They have obviously identified a keeper as an area they need to strengthen. We had no money so were looking at loan and free options. Szmodics money looked like it was coming in so identified a more long term solution. Obviously Szmodics money hasn’t come in so they are stalling. just to be clear it’s a farce we can’t get to 1.2m for a keeper we need with the money brought in without having to make another 10m selling our best player.

Makes very little sense your point here if it’s a swap deal for baker. His wages will be much higher then Travis so it wouldn’t be a large wage out of the door it would be a bigger wage in

Absolutely nailed on this is happening by the way. Drag on to the last week of the window which will be close enough for venkys to pocket it and pretend they will spend it next window and it will just go missing.
