Think hes been fit for quite a few weeks and playing in the under 21s.

Raining all day and a Yellow warning for wind in south west Wales tomorrow. I'm having visions of the miserable midweek display at Ashton Gate in the pissing rain a couple of years ago 🙃 Again I was only there as I'd never been!

I think sadly such a hope is a forlorn one.

I think it was said earlier today that the plan for Carter would be to start at 45 minutes for the under 21s and build him up from there. If indeed he actually manages to get to the end of that very small journey up to 90 minutes in the under 21s.

I can understand not revealing the "source" but not the player. Saying that we want an unnamed loanee but he might also stay or go elsewhere is a pretty easy stab in the dark to make.

It’s the club committing to the spend, the upfront amount will be low. I can’t see anyone making any credible offer whilst our league future is up for debate. I’m holding on to them committing to some money to ensure they’re selling a championship club.

Please be true we need another Smzmodics to pull us out the shit

Brave to go one player short no matter how good they are!

Sorry but no he moved like an Oil tanker although better awareness but this lad is short on games whilst Hanley was a regular here at the same age. These are the risks to be expected with these kind of loans but as always the idiots inside Ewood are only looking at the money side of it.

Just can’t see Venkys spending actual money in January (which they have) if this was being considered in any way. We can pray though

He’ll replace Henriksson who does know the system but who’s a reserve player playing out of position.

And a lot quicker than Cashin.

So around 10500 reported and around 8000 on.

No it wont for obvious reasons.

Will a name be forthcoming for this supposed target?

Understand Rovers would like to snare (on loan) a forward from a leading PL club (already made 1st team debut). He's only young but an amazing talent who would get the fans out of their seats. The lad's in a different league to anything we have (including Tyjon) and it would be a real coup IF we managed to get him (if PL club let him out on loan there will be others also in for him).

A 46th minute substitution means a half time change I.e. the sub comes on in minute 46. If it had been in injury it would say 45+whatever. That sounds like giving him a half to build his fitness.

Anecdotally speaking to people in the wild I think you’ll get a few boycotting but a good chunk cracking on, expect an attendance similar to a midweek game

Seems he made his name at Derby with his best form in league 1 where you can get away with certain flaws and still look good. Got the big move but was out of his depth at Brighton and went downhill from there. That's why he's here being paid mostly by his own club to resurrect his career so they can get a few quid back for him. If he can settle down he might do ok but it doesn't help playing with a B side Christian Daily like McClaughlin. Lads like Cashin need a Hyam or a Batth next to them.

Sheffield Wednesday fan to me in the office today ‘you are going down aren’t you’ In the past we have been quietly bad with people thinking we’ll be fine but others are starting to notice how bad we actually are!

Agree, Hanley was brainless at times. However, as a centre half he is 3 to 4 inches taller than Cashin, has amassed some 400 senior league appearances with a fair old few in the PL and represented his country for getting on 70 occasions. IMO, there is a big, big difference between the 2 players and I would wager Cashin will get nowhere near replicating Hanley's career/achievements.

Watching James Hill and Van Hecke shaking hands. Remembering happier times when we were a proving ground for exceptional talent. Cashin isn’t going to replace Van Hecke and Dunk. He shouldn’t have replaced Pratt. An 18 year old scores an overhead kick for Brighton. If you are good enough you are old enough.

Drongos.

Was Carter off injured or as a half time swap to manage his minutes? I can only see that he came off in the 46th minute according to livescore.com, dunno if that's after a minute of ET or the first minute of the second. From 1 up to a 4 goal capitulation second half. Looks like swapping Carter out for McIlroy caused problems. Nosegbe got on the pitch for Pitt in the 87th minute, and we conceded the final goal a minute later (after also conceding a minute before he came on).

Assume he's counting Garrett as another
