We are in danger of being too misty eyed over these academy lads and obviously it's only because we want to see them do well here for our mutual benefit. However a lot of them have been around a while and have stuttered to make the necessary grade one way or another so as long as they get a fee and good add on/sell on, maybe even a buy back, then i'm not too bothered anymore. As long as it opens the door for bringing fresh blood in and isn't just a cashing out exercise.

Leonard is like most of them. If he goes and we bring in a better replacement great. But if we bring in another Telalovic it’s pointless. All depends on who comes in. The signing of Morishita, who looks a level or two above most we have brought in for the last few years, gives me some hope that somehow we bring in another striker. But we should really aim for him to be first choice, not some third choice squad replacement.

He was one big unit!

It is a bit odd.....maybe we know we're coming up short on our other targets (unsurprisingly) Maybe also he didn't stick up for the lady who's left. If he had, you wouldnt have thought Suhail would be stepping in to block it. It'll probably go through with a raft of add ons taking the fee to a sum that "could" reach an eye watering £1.5m. If Peterbrough reach the Champions League and Harry gets his 10th Cap for England etc etc

Have we actually signed a forward this window ? I fear a re run of previous years , deliberate failures ..

Like Baradji you mean?

Of all the players to dig your heels in about it seems strange to me that you'd choose Leonard...

It's a bit chicken and egg. He was given the chance, but he couldn't stay fit. Someone said he's started 8 games total for us - that's nothing. Now it seems like he's been written off.

Surely we can't be letting Leonard out anyway until another striker is brought in

Hard to give someone a fair chance when after 2/3 games they always pick up an injury being available is extremely important

He has been given a chance though. He had a spell under JDT and got bullied...He has some good attributes but he's just not physical enough for the champ...League 1 is his level, for now anyway....Madness if we keep him here this window if you ask me.

Pasha needs to leave asap. A man who knows literally nothing about football or rovers making decisions is a joke.

Most of this summer's signings were written off before they'd even flown in .

You were right first time. 🙄

And the slow ones were nowhere at all.

Impressive if you can deduce that when he's never been given a chance.

Definitely time to move Leonard on in my opinion. I'm personally loving the freshening up feeling we've had this summer, and a new striker would top that off, especially if it's one that would potentially be our first choice.

1 down

Leonard stays there no chance we bring in a striker...Can't see why anyone would want to keep hold of a player who has been injured for the last 18months and clearly can't cope in the championship.

By all accounts the Judge was partying late on into the night in a Forest just outside of Pune.

That can't be correct. Everyone's aligned now remember.

Ok

Not without travelling to the midlands from what I've seen, closest I can find is Wolves doing text updates

A lot of players been banded about today. Most of our business has gone under the radar till the final hurdle. If we are in for a striker it will no doubt not be a name that has been mentioned already
