Will end up at another club most likely

Yeah I'd take Kipre, he doesn't seem in favour at West Brom maybe get him on loan with a view to buy

Can't say I know much about Pickering,but from reports sounds like he will be a good addition.Third time lucky getting left back sorted we hope. We desperately need a centre back in before Stoke.

Didn't you say it was a good signing at the time?

Stoke in advanced talks for Doughty at Charlton so probably won't bid for Pickering if they get deal completed

I'm sorry but again we have been talking to clubs about loaning a defender since early January? We can't force clubs to give an answer.Premier league teams are reluctant to let players out early with covid going on. Ancellotti said today that Brainwaith will most likely be available to loan. Iv not seen any centre half brought in yet by a championship club this window.Preston are also looking for a centre half and are yet to bring one in. I'm not saying things couldn't be better and there are reasons to criticize the club but we weren't planning on bringing anyone in this window until injuries changed that.Mowbray had to go with his begging bowl to the owners and ask permission don't really see how Mowbray or recruitment team can be critized for this. We are waiting on answers back and id rather be a bit patient and get the best player possible than panic.If it gets toward the end of next week and nobody is brought in then fair enough but a lot of these young will probably be involved this weekend for their parent clubs in the fa cup

I'm sorry but how do you know we haven't been making enquiries for weeks? I'm sure we have plenty of enquiries in, but as we don't seem to have much money and are targetting the loan market then we have to wait for premier league teams to allow their players out.A few deals have been done in the championship but none really that im envious of.

I don't think it is bizzare to have let Carter out on loan .He clearly isn't ready to be playing at this level, can ruin a career by throwing someone in too soon.The Burton loan is a good one for him and us. Agreed we could be quicker off the mark but up until a couple of weeks ago the club weren't planning on making any signings this January,injuries have forced their hand. I imagine it's quite difficult bringing in a decent loan signing with the current climate

We do need someone in ,but in the club's defence we are targeting a young premier league loanee, clubs in the premier league will be reluctant to let them out early with all the covid absentee's.Id say a lot of clubs will be playing their youngsters in the fa cup this weekend.Hopefully we will see movement early next week

3 of their best players out of contract at end of the season.Id much rather be in our shoes than theirs. If we signed Ched Evans would you be happy?

Holtby is a former German international who has played in both the premier league and Bundesliga.Whiteman has spent his career in league one. The bit IV seen of Whiteman he looks handy and feel he will make the step up, although Holtby form here has been inconsistent he is still a quality player and has had a far better career than Whiteman to date

Were Hartlepool even playing him?I thought I read something that suggested Hartlepool didn't want to extend his loan? Hope the Carter departure means we are close to bringing 2 centre halfs in rather than replacing Carter with Magloire

Finished last series of Vikings, quality series will be missed in my household

Good news

Where you see this?

Whoever we are targetting to bring in at centre half,we need the deal doing by Monday at the very latest.Stoke is a big game a week on Saturday,a win will take us above them and don't want to be going into that match with Johnson at centre half. All the rumours point toward a youngster coming in and last thing I want to see is an 18 year old signed on Friday and then thrown in on the Saturday

Plus is he even making the team at Hartlepool?I'm sure I read they ain't keen on trying to keep him

It's fa cup this weekend no championship till weekend after

Suprised Downing wasn't brought in today. Elliot has looked like he needs a rest

I wouldn't say Rooney is flopping at the minute, seems to be doing well. Lampard an example of a big name rookie who did well at this level. Personally I wouldn't want Terry, the incidents with Ferdinand and and messing around with Wayne Bridges Mrs puts me off him. Pulis and the Cowley brothers a no from me aswell, we don't have the type of players that suit those managers and tactics certainly in the case of Pulis. Don't think they will sack Mowbray anyway, although saying that it felt like Bowyer would never be sacked either and eventually he was potted

We had the option of another 12 months on his deal anyway so would have been under contract in the summer anyway

Great news.Nyambe next please

Campbell out for the season

Rothwell has talent but how many times last night did he get the ball with space in front of him and he didn't drive into it. I like Rothwell but he doesn't get the numbers a player with his attributes should and he does go missing an awful lot. I agree it looks like Mowbray harder on Rothwell but Rothwell has been here a few years now and is still doing the same old things in matches and his numbers in terms of goals and assists is terrible if we are going to be truthful. I know it's the in thing on here to blame everything on Mowbray but surely Rothwell should take some responsibility for his own performances.He is 25 years old and his career to date has been spent in league one and for the majority of his time here on the bench that isn't good enough for someone with his talent .

Rothwell should be considered a senior player.He wasn't as bad as Buckley last night but he still played crap. If you think Rothwell played well last night then I think it's you talking twonk. Rothwell has had plenty and plenty of chances and goes missing absolute loads.Like I have said the talent is clearly there but one goal or assist every 20 appearances isn't good enough for a player with his attributes
