Why though?He played 39 times for Norwich in this league last year. It would be better being a loan to buy but maybe he is a short term option until that Trapp or another player becomes available, or perhaps it's because Mowbray doesn't feel Davenport is ready yet but will be, or Rothwell needs to work on his discipline before he trusts him enough to play as 1 of the 2. It could be a loan to buy anyway but if just a season loan surely it would be better to have him as an option instead of Smallwood rather than not

No mate you can just have a standard loan deal

Yeah would have been a decent option. My hope is that the attacking players that do come in will be loan to buys hence us not targetting young prem players just available on loan

Pulis been giving his thought on missing out on Bolasie and boro's transfer buisness in general.Said nobody will be let out as it stands so if Chapman is a TM target that one doesn't look likely

That's what Sharpe is saying on Twitter that he would be coming in with a view to challenging for a centre half spot. It might not even happen anyway and if it does will be a cheap deal

In fairness he isn't passing it off as his own he is just passing on what has been said. I do think there is definitely something in the Reed link, expect we will find out today as he is being talked about as one of the players expected through the door today

I like Travis too but I do think at his age he should be playing regular football. Playing the odd game or getting 10 minutes every now and again isn't going to benefit him or us in the long term. Mowbray did mention that he expects more exciting and expensive signings over the next 9 days and attacking players are harder to get so I'm just taking Mowbray at his word and we will be bringing in some attacking talent before the close of buisness

Looks like Travis going on loan.Doubt we will see Whittingham again in a rovers shirt, Davenport injured, Smallwood not looking up to it at this level, not sure Mowbray trusts Rothwell to have the discipline to play that position yet. We have numbers not so sure about the quality but if we are bringing in Harrison Reed then don't see why we need Rodwell too. It is in the forward area's where we need to be concentrating on but looks like nothing happening until next week

Sharpe tweeted no fee agreed as of yet for Brereton, club still working on it. Two in today will be "defensive types".

Correct decision by the club if he isn't going to play to be fair. I'd like to see TM being a little braver and start Rothwell a little deeper

If we sign Reed it will be to play in my opinion,Travis needs to play for development, if he isn't going to play much then he should go on loan. Not sure about Davenport, his injury could mean him out for longer than expected or TM doesn't think he is ready. If we sign both both Reed and Rodwell then we will have 8 players that can play in midfield,Reed, Rothwell,Rodweell, Travis, Davenport ,Bennett, Smallwood and Evans.

That wasn't Brererton, like Tom said it was Lenihans brother

I don't know Chaddy, Mowbray in that interview talking about his time at Everton and City and saying if he does come in the fans need to give him a chance. If we sign both both Reed and Rodwell, we will have those 2, Smallwood, Evans, Travis, Davenport and Rothwell that can play in midfield.Im presuming either Davenports injury is worst than first thought or Mowbray doesn't think he is ready. I presumw Travis will be going on loan?

Chaddy has posted Mowbray's comments. TM said no interest In Anichebe so can people stop panicking? TM:"I would have to say hopefully there are some much bigger deals than free agents coming to the football club over the next nine days or so" That doesn't sound like just Rodwell and a couple of prem loan kids to me

Mogga has ruled out Anichebe said no interest

He did Neal his post match comment about incomings are on Sharpes Twitter. I think Chaddy posted them in this thread

Mowbray said after the match Anichebe isn't one he is persuing

Mowbray has said Anichebe isn't happening

Just going off what Nixon said on Twitter about Harrison.Not sure if it just a loan or loan to buy

Harrison Reed wouldn't be bad.

Yet according to Mowbray we agreed a 4 million deal for a player earlier in the window only for the player to go elsewhere for higher wages?

I suppose Anichebe would give us an extra physical option up top but his injury and goalscoring record would be a worry

Yeah the team showed great character tonight considering the players out and then Armstrong picking up an injury

Surely Smallwood won't be starting on Saturday. See Nixon is linking us with Harrison reed from Southampton. Looked excellent when he first broke through at Southampton but hasn't really pushed on since

We must be on the Z list
