I think this is a disgusting attitude. Mulgrew has been poor for a while. The bloke needed replacing. But for the last 6 or 7 years or so it's been difficult to really sing many players names with pride. I have loved Dacky and Mulgrew. Charlie has been our captain and given his best. I see him as an honest pro and respect to him for still wanting to play first team football. He goes with my thanks. Non of this f off stuff. Bloke doesn't deserve that. I'd clap him back at ewood and sing about him being better than zidane one last time.

Cunningham would be straight in after a week as Bell isn't one of the boys or in Mowbrays inner circle.

Doesn't matter if I'd heard of Cunningham last week. Which I had. Just making a hypothetical question based on the incredibly grainy links we have. Jacob Murphy by the way

Out: Dack In: Hanley, Cunningham, Murphy Would you?

Best mate is a big QPR fan. He has always ranted about Lynch being utter crap. We are scraping the barrel here. And unless something magic is pulled out the hat I am genuinely shocked at Mowbrays decisions this window.

It would be exciting if we were to bring in a left back and centre back. But I've a feeling Mowbray is having trouble finding a centre back within budget so is looking at a left back which would see a permanent switch to centre back. Hopefully not as first choice. It does give us more depth across the back line but boy are we gambling an a 21 year old kid from city cutting the mustard

And please tell me how many goals and assists Bennett has provided from right back. You are substituting a very decent defender who is poor going forward for a very poor "defender" who is poor going forward

The reason this thread is here is not because we lost, it is down to some of the baffling decisions Mowbray seems to make. I think a centre back and a left back and we have a quality squad. But Mowbray will continue to exclude the same players for average dross played out of position. If Nyambe had started at right back, Rothwell on the left, Arma on the right this thread wouldn't be here. It's not the loss it's the stupid fu**ing decisions Mowbray makes again and again without justification. Personally I think at some point he'll change it. After about 8 games and the players coming in having blinders at which point they will still be at risk. He's too slow, too stubborn and refuses to drop his favourites. There is nothing wrong with the players managing the dressing room. Leicester City won the league that way. But as soon as the senior players who are managing it don't perform and arent dropped both those players and the manager lose faith and respect. Final word. Elliot fooking Bennett.

Have you purposefully chosen the most uninspiring team you could or is that genuinely the line up you expect

Has it been reported how much we are getting for Nuttal

I think we are well in the market for another centre back and Mowbray is playing his cards close to his chest.

Could you imagine Reed on a loan to buy on deadline day. After another beastly centre back of course. With smallwood and Evan's leaving

Agreed. But I do think he should be starting the season

I think people underestimate how important Danny Graham has been for us. Our poty last season. Shirt is his to lose. Make Gally fight for it. I'd be disappointed if he were on the bench all season but he needs to earn the shirt and the respect of his team mates. £££ signs dont do that. Same for adarabioyo. Shouldn't just walk in.

Anyone still saying they feel comfortable should have a look at the Sheffield United deadline day transcript posted a few pages back. Leave it that late and everything can easily become out of our hands. Its not good it has been left this late. I'm sure its not for the want of trying. And personally I don't blame Mowbray. I think we are lacking another member of staff who's job it is to help get these deals over the line

Wasnt it rising to 5 million. So if he does well. The way I perceived it was about 3.5 up front then add ons. I cant remember where I read that

Surely if Jake Cooper is in the last year of his contract he could be available. £4million? Would be an outstanding signing. It could be possible as we've seen in previous windows. Nobody ever truly knows what is going on at Rovers. We could be finished for the summer. We could be about to drop a huge wedge.

Although it is a little worrying we are so, so close. Once the lad from City comes in if we then signed a quality centre half I would be over the moon with the quality of our squad. We are one player off a very capable team. I'm hoping it's all just smoke and mirrors

I always feel like there is a distinct correlation between wages and our starting line up. Hence some of Mowbrays favourites rarely being dropped. Not only is it good to tie Trav down but hopefully this indicates Mowbray, like the fans see him as central to our future success

He'll go at some point I'm sure. But I get the impression Dacky quite likes it here. I can't see him kicking up a mega fuss. He gets criticized, by myself included about his celeb lifestyle and his mrs. But shes moved up here with him. Unlike someone like Harrison Reed who always had the pressure on him to get back south. I think he's pretty settled.

Nyambe centre back, Magloire right back?

Joe Hart as the goalie then?

5 is what has been reported in the press. But Wigan fans were shocked they were even sniffing around a player at that price. I've a funny feeling it's going to be a fair bit less than that, going up to 5 should he perform well. Score enough goals, make enough appearances, promotion etc. At which point he would have definitely been worth the money. I just don't think Wigan would have been looking if it was 5 million guaranteed

Congrats on the new contract

Luke Freeman has moved to Sheff United
