blueboy3333 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Just now, Eddie said: 'Not going to be signing anyone now, far too late'....is this everyone's first transfer window? Deals regularly happen very quickly in the final hour or two. Rakeem Harper anyone? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not ideal but hope for some decent loans to quell the disappointment. There is going to be a hell of a lot of positive PR in the next few days on the extraordinary value to be found in the loan window and how that was our cunning plan all along. Rain at Lords and looking like a washout window. At least the Leeds forcast is good, comon Lightning, cheer me up ffs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bepeja43 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 LET confirms it unlikely Rovers will make ANY signings before the 5pm deadline. So there you go. VENKYS OUT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazsimm Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 looks like it's loan deals for Rovers now. I reckon Chapman will join us on loan again and probably another forward on loan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OJRovers Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I thought we had a new scouting department? Not doing their jobs if they are not identifying the right players, crucially who are available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacknOry Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 So net spend is about 1 million more than last season in a division lower. That's your competitive budget folks. We will now loan in 4 players on the pretense that they are with a view to signing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBlue Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 The early closing of the transfer window means that loans to guaranteed permanent will be rife, hardly any deals have been done. Not saying Rovers will do any, who knows, but if we signed Maddison/Gallagher etc TOMORROW would some people still be wishing we had Paul Bleeding Hurst? Still hilarious seeing everyone go batshit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roverandout Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 So a loan signing of a chelsea reserve, where they loan players left right and centre and a newcastle youngster and people think this a good window? Lucky im done with venkys fc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philipl Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Here's a little gem for you all. Only 77 permanent transfers for fees all summer prior to today. Less than one per club. And we got two (or is it three?) of them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backroom Madon Posted August 9, 2018 Backroom Share Posted August 9, 2018 Although today is classed as 'Deadline Day', surely everyone is aware it's not really - hence why only 3 permanent transfers have been completed today in the EFL. 30th August is deadline day, if we are where we are now on the 30th August, then it is time to panic and ask WTF has gone on!

Hi Mack Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 It's almost like the deadline was a shock to the club!! Very very Poor, I'm not a massive fan of loan deals, for every Armstrong there's a Harper! The competitive budget line looks a little silly at this point!

Wing Wizard Windy Miller Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 25 minutes ago, Bigdoggsteel said: There is a huge difference between loaning an exciting prospect form Chelsea and selling one of our best players and having him loaned back to us. You said the Burn deal was great business by Wigan. So by that logic us doing likewise with Lenihan would be great business, right? If the club wants to sell and at a good price for the club. Then getting to keep the player for an additional period seem s like good business to me - yes West Ham offer £15 mil for Dack. Club accept. Too late to sign a replacement. Dack offered back to the club on loan basis for a season. Good business? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
