It'll go through, the £3m will be banked and we'll bring in a cheap, untested, PL loan RB. -

JDT and Eustace often turned to the bench and thought "who the fuck do I bring on?" It's why Eustace ran Travis and Tronstad into the ground last season. It's been our achilles heel for years - absolutely no quality depth. Games we're very much in used to change when the subs were made - the opposition got stronger (or at least posed different questions) and we either didn't make any (with our tired players going up against their fresh ones) or got significantly weaker. -

From my understanding he was overseas with Hull for pre season and the bid has only just been accepted. -

Has this CB from Hull been completed yet? -

We're the last Club to be in a position to complain about that! (Tin hat on) If Eustace was interested in Brittain I'd accept Nyambe (still only 27) plus £2m cash. -

I don't like slotting CBs in at FB - especially in the modern game when the FB is asked to provide attacking options. Nor do I like slotting tall FBs in at CB as a Plan A. That's a Plan D when everyone is injured and the transfer window is closed. -

You have to simply look at it as a club trying to take our players to take our league position... So fuck em, sell to Boro. -
I was at Heaton Park on Weds - wasn't sure it would live up to the hype (nor my memories of Maine Rd and Loch Lomond) but I was wrong. Still recovering - physically and emotionally. What a fucking night. Band on top form, sounded as good as ever. The crowd was brilliant - no trouble/knobheads - just 80000 people and voices unified. The only gig I've seen to come close for that communal spirit was the Roses in 2012, but I think this pipped even that.

Agreed, I think he has to do a full season injury free for someone to pay big money for him.

This is uncharacteristically churlish of me, but I wouldn't sell to Derby. If it comes down to a few hundred thousand I'd rather take a bit less money and sell him to Boro, frankly. They've nicked our manager, nicked two of our out of contract lads, have been sniffing around Travis, linked to Dolan and now want Brittain. If I was Rovers I think I'd try to make it known that he's available for £3m, unless Derby phone, then he's available for £4m. -

Is it impossible to say? I genuinely can't think of anything they've done right in 15 years. -

I must admit that I think all three kits that they have done so far have been excellent. Love this new one with familiar images of the town on it. -

Wharton is a fantastic example... a generational talent who's already played for England and is recognised as one of the best young players in the PL. But why didn't you use the examples of Jake Garrett, Adam Henley, Jake Kean, Jack Vale, Dan Butterworth, Tyler Magloire, Willem Tomlinson etc? There's no doubt the academy has served us well, and the players that are good enough will break through (lots of examples of this). What we cannot afford is an over-reliance on players that have in no way proven their capability in senior football. The success stories in recent years have invariably spent time out on loan or have been eased in to senior football. Lenihan, Carter, Wharton, Travis, Buckley, Nyambe. None of these were thrown in at the deep end. They were nurtured either by going out on loan to lower leagues or were given sporadic opportunities until they were seen to be ready. There is a balance to be had, and if you tip the balance too far in favour of youngsters, you're going to get your fingers burnt. -

THis post about the Brittain transfer stalling and right before Journo saying Boro could be willing to pay 2.5m while we want 3m. This reeks of lowballing. Hopefully Eustace tries to get Brittain as well. -

A steady Eddie is just what is needed next to Hyam he plays so much better with a calm presence next to him. -

500k for an experienced championship centre half who, in Hull's fans words, was one of their stand out performers last season looks like very good business. Proven at this level, albeit a steady eddie type. I don't think Hull would be selling him for that kind of price if they weren't in the predicament that they're in. -

Good shout. Think that's spot on and will likely be the approach. In fact, getting Sanderson back may not be a bad idea given we need championship experience and leadership to balance up the 'riskier' signings we've made so far. -

It'll still go through. He want's to leave, he won't sign a new deal, we are "learning" from past mistakes (apparently) As expected, we'll just end up accepting a deal that see's him leave for a fraction of his value. -

Good. Get him training on Witton Park on his own to give him time to reflect on his actions. -

Admiral Nelsen replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
No idea if he'll be an adequate replacement for Batth or not - I suspect not in the short term - but I agree it looks like a sensible signing. Hull fans seem to be on the fence about whether selling him is a good idea or not, but they all seem to think that we've got the better end of the deal if the £500k is right. -
There's no way anyone is paying £100m for Adam Wharton this summer.

That Miller from Hibs would be ideal, can slot in at RB and CB. I don't think we will get him unfortunately as we won't pay the fee, could maybe see another Dion Sanderson type signing on loan later in the window that could perform both roles if needs be.
