If this isn’t the quintessential definition of dicking around in the transfer market I don’t know what is. https://www.thestar.co.uk/sport/football/sheffield-wednesday/blackburn-rovers-sheffield-wednesday-bailey-cadamarteri-5494211 An extra 50K. Someone is going to sweep him up for more than that.

When will we know the actual attendance at Ewood for the Watford game?

Im quite happy to take fees quoted by the Club at face value. What I can't be doing with is people who try to have it both ways ie. "We're showing ambition" when it's claimed we've spent £3m but when the player flops they say "Well it wouldn't really have been anything like £3m due to add ons".

Walter Joyce.

We might well have gone up but to say we would probably still be a Premier club now is a bit of a stretch. That team was nowhere near the quality of several of the teams that have gone up and come straight back down in the last few years. And we can be fairly certain Venkys wouldn't have invested the funds required to stay up.

bob hope and no hope

Yet again the desperation to buy cheap with cheap wages and pray they get a few goals so that value quickly increases is trumping the common sense approach. Invest in someone more proven and the returns will take car of themselves in the next few years, that's a proven method here. This lad must have good running stats is all i can say.

Wish Id had a do at the 10/1 on offer only a few weeks ago. I didnt as it felt too disloyal.

On a positive note... my £50 August bet (5-1) on Rovers to be relegated is already offering an early payout of £100.

More likely the result will be them telling the club they'll need to rake in 10 million themselves in summer.

Agreed - though we have been doing this for a long time. We never got near to paying £5m for Gallagher, or £6m/£7m for BBD, as that would have required promotion / etc. The same way that our outbound transfers are add-on or clause heavy. And, for the record, I think Broughton had a strategy and it was clearly hamstrung by interference within the club. Szmodics, Hyam, Brittain, Tronstad are all significantly better than anything we've signed since. As someone else has already said: O'Brien and Undav arrive in that transfer window and we're probably still a Prem club now.

Their other striker looks 👌 should ask for him too

Hopefully they'll decide to cut their overseas losses and sell them off.

David Batty.... 👀

Anyone from the 70s

Just thinking back - Ken Knighton.

I just feel like the singular players get burnt out because there's no one around them to play with. Instead they end up running themselves into the ground and ultimately wanting to leave

We have upped our bid to £800k according to a SW local reporter. An increase of £50k

Elvis Costello says “ Less Than Zero “.

So it's very much looking like another January failure under this circus. Jorgensen looks to be a decent pick up tbf but should have been signed in the summer. And his signing alone isn't enough.

Another niggly bastard, Johnny Giles, looking on from a safe distance.

Zero

It’s a must win now, even if we were playing Barca it would be must win - that’s the position we’ve got ourselves in. 3-0 loss.

What's our chances of signing Cleary?
