It’s a weird one, wanted Travis or 2.5 million for him. Then we can have him basically on a free.

Isn’t he out of contract end of season?

Lewis Baker loan anyone?

Same as most managers, They don’t like talking about potential incomings when they are contracted to another club

Dembele gone to Oxford

Would like us to go back for Hastings before the window shuts. Try to add a potential asset back in to the ranks

Be his mini pre season

If Cantwell signs and he’s here a season it would have cost the club around 1.5 million overall. Be 27 years old, if it doesn’t work out I would be astonished in todays market that we couldn’t recoup that money back. It’s not a massive gamble money wise and it’s not like he’s been playing bad, He just wanted to leave and got placed in the reserves. (Attitude aside)

Can’t put those two players in the same category…………

To add it goes against what we need. Do we need another 10, Has he got the correct attitude, is he within our structured pay, This has venkys all over this signing. They have fingers and toes crossed it happens. Player once valued at a massive amount still at a good age, polish up, pat him on the back, money made

Definitely an additional signing. No doubt a signing they will flog at the first sign of making a good profit. Business signing, Not a club signing

No, just trying to state what Nixon said on radio lancs. I’m not the best at putting things across but I try 😂

Nothing about medical. Just said the lad could have sat on his contract but wanted to play and willing to drop wage so FairPlay. Also said We tried very hard and it was not a publicity stunt. Said he’s a luxury player who would benefit from a team that plays on the front foot and able to give him the ball as without it he doesn’t offer much. Thinks we have a plan how to set up the side for him by how hard we tried to get deal done

Listened back and he said Birmingham would have to drop price for Dembele or Blackburn could go for a loan late on

Rapid 🔥

If the owners are willing to chance the wage being spent on Cantwell so be it. It’s not like they are going to spend it on others. An opportunity has come up for an investment and the club is taking it. After the money we have brought in us fans deserve another asset added to the squad. Some comments acting like they are paying his wage themselves

Sreenivasa Rao is head of finance and based in London. Probably had to do the numbers to sign it off

If we don’t get trumped can see medical for Cantwell tomorrow. Get back to Gers pack your things and get the deal signed

Nixon- Hungarian keeper incoming

Isn’t London where venkys holding company and financial team are based. Positive a family member was hired to Accounts manager based over here

Cantwell signs!

Not seen anything on this from Rovers or Rangers side. Surely Nixon would know this as well

LT are really bad on reporting Rovers. When was the last time we had a decent reporter who chased news and asked decent questions

Harvey come and was a success. Would say similar pedigree at that time and he got more first team football after his loan. Anything could happen, stay close to home as well
