From Alan Nixon Bolton. Blackburn. Parkinson wants Danny Graham. But there’s an option in his contract that means Rovers can keep him. And that would mean a fee as well as top wages. Look like Unsall and J*B were right From Rich Sharpe RE: Danny Graham. The option that was in his contact became redundant when #Rovers were relegated. So he’s out of contract as of the end of this month. However, he wants to stay at Rovers and I expect that he will. https://t.co/UI23aMuWCl

Sambou linked with Blackburn Rovers(link is a couple of months old tho) http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2018/03/11/report-everton-talent-bassala-sambou-wanted-by-blackburn-rovers/ https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/blackburn-plotting-move-for-20-year-old-premier-league-striker-as-mowbray-eyes-summer-reinforcements/

we need both Dack and Lenihan on 4 year contracts with no release clauses in them at all. Graham should be offered a 1 year contract with a incentive if he played in more than 30 games this season he get a new 12 month contract on the same terms. Please be realistic. KI has decided to leave Swansea. linked with a move to Italy. don't think we should be looking at players at 29 years old tbh. Mowbray still after him but City still don't know whether they want to sell him or loan him yet. I agree on Experience PL players wages will be too high for us. I agree with you that Mowbray Young and hungry mantra is the way forward. I also don't think they is much money around for transfers fees wise. not millions after millions. Of the 5 permanent transfers Mowbray wants before loans, I only expect 2 being cash buy and 3 being frees before we signed couple of loans players. Players under 24 years old and younger is what Mowbray has said he is targeting Some Players we could be looking at Curtis Nelson 24 years old centre from Oxford United. out of contract this month. not signed a new contract yet Clark Robertson 24 years centre back from Blackpool. out of contract this month Hakeeb Adelakun 21 years old winger from Scunthorpe United. Out of contract this month Harry Chapman 20 years old winger from Boro. 12 months left on his contract but I suspect Pulis wont be playing him so expect him to be sold. Kadeem Harris 25 years old winger from Cardiff. out of contract this month. Josh Brownhill 22 years old midfield from Bristol City. out of contract this month

Mowbray discuss Contracts for Graham and Conway plus new improve contracts for Lenihan and Dack http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/16279853.Rovers_boss_hopeful_of_positive_outcomes_in_contract_talks/?ref=mac

I agree. would have to be a loan deal at best. I hoping we bring in Adelakun and Chapman shortly. pacey wingers just what we need. still need a centre midfielder and Striker like Armstrong then a back up keeper really?

His heading wasnt good when he was here. Thats why I asked has he improved since being at Birmingham.. But he did well here. Still remember his goal against Wolves. What a strike

surely a goal tally isn't everything a striker should be judge on. Plus wasn't he played wide for Birmingham My point was more about his all round game like work rate, Heading, Technical, etc

I don't think that's the problem he has been given a directive from the owners that he cant sign older players but Mowbray looking at the medium and long term plan and also wants to add youth to a squad which has experience players like Mulgrew, Whittingham, Evans, Smallwood, Bennett, etc. its not like we got a young squad is it. Mowbray has said he wants 5 permanent transfers. plus a couple of loans Hart from Liverpool was a permanent signing who?

From Rich Sharpe A bit more from TM on #Rovers' recruitment plans: https://t.co/YyFEVIDuZU

From Rich Sharpe Had the pleasure of some time with Tony Mowbray this morning. Can't help but admire his enthusiasm and strong principles. #Rovers in a good place on and off the pitch. Before anyone says: "any news Rich?" here's a message from the boss: “For our supporters to know, there’s a lot of work going on behind the scenes. We will be signing footballers, there’s an ambition for the club to build a team that’s youthful and will be competitive next year."

Is Mike Rigg still working at the club? If Johnson isnt at the club any more who is in charge of scouting department?

where would Dack play? maybe Gallagher might be a target or not. I don't know. Has he improved as a player at Birmingham?

The Rovers fans who have posted their info are trustworthy and no reason to lie. Not sure it guesswork tbh, cos if the terms Rovers offered Graham were acceptable he would have sign by now. I would more concern if Rovers gave him more 12 months deal as I feel that is the best we should be offering and nothing. Toney would be good signing IMO. Armstrong would be my top transfer target this summer. I don't know whether Winnall would come or the cost just someone I watched and always been impress by. It depends who available and the budget to replace Graham if we have to, Plus we already have Samuel and Nuttall. Samuel is working hard on his training and bulking up. still need another 2 strikers this summer

maybe Parkinson have been a wage budget and is planning to use it on 2 or 3 players and he has decide to try to sign Graham to be his main striker and play him and Le Fondre up front. This is just a possible scenario

I believe what you saying unsall. no reason to not believing you as you have proved track record

I mostly agree there, I wouldn't be more money and I more inclined to offer more incentives based contract How much training does Graham do and is he fitness/dieting going to be good enough? not sure I would give him 2 years deal at this stage All depends on the wage per week and whether you offer him incentives based contract for 12 months with if he appears in more than 30 games he get a new contract on the same terms for another 12 months Moore could be target if Graham doesn't sign here a new contract. Other striker targets IMO could be Adam Armstrong, Sam Winnall, Ivan Toney, Lansbury on 40k a week and most likely transfer fee of 5 mil plus? can we really afford it? please be realistic Surely Mowbray will be looking to replace Graham within the next season or 2 anyway with a new target man type. depends on how much Graham wages and whether we see it has value for money? surely we shouldn't be held to ransom for a player who will be 33 years old in August and I suspect this season he wont be starting every game and is he really worth a new contract back on his previous Championship wages(if that's the wage he after)?

My team would be Pickford Walker Stones Maguire Tripper Lingard Dier Ali Rose Kane Sterling Tough on Rashford but its really good to see so much competition for places.

Really impress by Rashford, Rose and Delph. Rose has good forward all game. Best England left back in country by miles. Rashford looks threating at every opportunity. So skilful Delph has played well by getting forward. Positional good

Would anyone offer him a 2 year deal at Rovers?

Thanks. Do you know how much we offer him? But we arent fooked at all. Its depends on how much Graham wants and whether it worth for us to offer him the same. How many games will he play?

I was wrong so my apologises @roversfan99. This is what you said on the Smallwood signing "People are alllowed to question some of Mowbrays decisions, hes not the untouchable you seem to make up. To be fair Whittingham is a good signing, and Smallwood im content with as back up for Evans, but if people question it you cant tell them to "give it a rest lad." Yes I did but he proved me wrong Yes I was wrong about Gladwin. Still feel there is a player in there but feel like he will reach the highs he should have done

Rovers to step up recruitment drive on Mowbray return http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/16270958.Rovers_to_step_up_recruitment_drive_on_Mowbray_return/

Which higher calibre players would you want considering the comments of Mowbray and Waggott since the owners meeting?

Players are saleable if managers and clubs want them. Every players have a price
