2025 Summer Transfer Thread. 😂

Another one to file in the bin. If he's worth £5m+, then I'm not sure why he's even being offered to us in the first place. -

Pears value to a Premier league club, particularly one in Europe, is in filling a homegrown quota slot in the squad selection whilst being happy to pick up a better wage than a starting league one keeper (which he could probably be) to turn up and train and occasionally make the bench as a third or fourth choice keeper. There are relatively few half decent keepers willing to do it, so 'big' clubs will pay (a bit) of a premium for them. £1m + 15kpw for Pears to allow you to register a £60m+ foreign centre forward in your squad is peanuts to City or Chelsea or whoever. The fact that Pears is being linked with this kind of move makes me think that his agent has put the word out that he'd be interested. It's not an impossible move. Whether he is a £1m+ keeper under any other circumstances is an arguable but probably irrelevant point here. -
It wasn't a month's wage though.

The ‘rest’ excuse doesn’t even make any sense. There’s a round of fixtures the weekend of the 20/21st, weekend of the 27th but also midweeks on the 30th. So what difference does it make if they play on the 27th instead of the 26th? Indeed you could make the argument that playing on the 26th would actually be better for rest periods between games. It’s obviously a TV scheduling decision hiding behind welfare.

Time for bed for you now I think. Keep off the blue Smarties, the food colouring they've used is obviously causing you some bother.

Exactly, it will come to an end. I'd take that right now. Venkys on the other hand will just continue with what they've done for the last 15 years. -
Honestly, you're not telling me the last 14 years aren't down to bad luck? We were so lucky under Jack when he bought us the best forward in history, I can't understand where all the luck has gone, maybe we just used it all up. Surely nobody can have bad luck for 14 years, surely we'd have had some good luck like Wrexham. Who hands out this luck, you're the expert? Where do we get it from? Maybe Father Christmas will bring us some this year.

Dickie Bird, Michael Parkinson and the cricketer who’s granny could have it the ball with a stick of roooooobarb. Barnsley away.

Can’t agree I’m afraid, he’s probably the only one in the EFL that’s as bad if not worse, have a good look into it and the timeline. There’s serious worry for SWFC as a going concern right now. Something’s got to give.

This is honestly some of the dumbest shit I've ever seen on this message board. It must be hot down in that hole you've been digging, you'll be breaking into the mantle soon enough.

Anyone who thinks Calamity Pears will move for a seven-figure fee is - quite frankly - on drugs. -

Still nowhere near as bad as venkys. I'd still swap with them all day long. -
What's ridiculous is using mumbo jumbo to drive a narrative. As Gary Player said , The harder I practice, the luckier I get. You get what you earn. I'll tell you what, you and Upside down nip and get Rovers some of that there luck,we haven't had any for about 14 years. All that bunkem about it being down to Venkys, I tell you, we've just been plain unlucky.

Who is this tit of a commentator on the Real Madrid v Al Hilal game? Quote “The home fans are making a great noise”. Sorry? One team is from Spain and the other from Saudi Arabia and the match is being played in Miami. I thought I saw Salgado in the stand.

He’s easily worth over 5m, so yes absolutely no chance. Not sure specifically who’s linked him but some of the recent ‘links’ aren’t even remotely believable, there’s silly season and there’s just being complete dicks. -

Another target to add to we tried list. Don’t know why we employ a recruitment team. Chasing unrealistic targets in the hope they feel sorry for us and except low ball offers -

Not a snowball in hell's chance. PL, Pears is your number 2 and your number 1 gets a serious injury with Pears having to cover for up to 4 months - that's season over for that club. For ANY Championship club he makes too many mistakes and I can't see any club paying even £1million (or anywhere near) let alone £2million for a goalie not good enough to be number 1 in a poor Rovers side. Loose change only for Pears - anything beyond that is for the fairies. TBH don't think Barrett or Goddard up to it - Barrett is 23 and hasn't made an appearance for ANY senior club whilst 21 year old Goddard has circa 50 games with non league clubs of the ilk of Bamber Bridge and Marine!!! I wouldn't hold my breath about those two. Michalski is only 18 and only seen him play once - think he has a chance but would be a huge risk to have him as our number 2 with such limited experience. Think we need an experienced back up to Toth. -
