Norbert Rassragr Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 I thought Andre Grey signed for Preston. I'm not sure he's all that anyway, and peaked a few years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Richie Lareya is available as a RWB/RB on loan from Forest. Never given a chance with Forest and is a very experienced player. An integral part of the exciting Canadian WC team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrenrover Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Regarding BBD, I was fortunate enough to meet Ben and his parents a few times at the back end of last season….super folk too I have to say. In fact I spent all of the second half at Peterborough sat next to Ben’s mother Andrea. They clearly dote on their son as they should, aren’t motivated by money and only want Ben to be happy in what he does. Importantly, he’s extremely happy at Rovers, as are they that he’s here. It would not be down to any influence from them should he be ‘moved on’. Given the opportunity to progress his future and benefit Rovers too under the tutorage of JDT, I don’t think Brereton will be looking to go anywhere soon. It’s pro football though, they’re all ‘pieces of meat’!…… 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J*B Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 In a total contradiction to the above I was told Rovers are offering him out at 20M and want it done quickly. So who knows! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So who knows! The noise, is similar to Armstrong last season, with the same comments of "if he goes, we'd hope to have some of that money to spend" Publically we are certainly not issuing a "hands off". I suspect he will go, I just hope we are already identifying a replacement, where we can push the button once we get an acceptable fee. I think most of us would like him to stay, but we have to be realistic, he hasnt agreed a new deal (not sure if one has/was offered), so like Armstrong we have little choice but to cash in sadly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most of us would like him to stay, but we have to be realistic, he hasnt agreed a new deal (not sure if one has/was offered), so like Armstrong we have little choice but to cash in sadly I always find it interesting with Rovers. Bigger, better run clubs, obviously with more pull than us, always spend the money before they sell. We're the complete opposite, Rhodes, Armstrong etc are fine examples. We scratch around late in the window trying to make the funds worth it. I remember Bale when he went to Madrid, Spurs spent all the fee before sanctioning the move. Looks as though Boro are trying the same before the Spence move. Granted it's a risk... what if he gets injured? But you've got to be proactive in this market. Decide you're selling him and sign some replacements BEFORE the green light is given. EDIT: I'm not saying Boro are bigger than us.

There was nothing to suggest Brereton could replicate the goalscoring void Armstrong left. Thankfully BBD, did, however his injury, said goodbye to promotion, and had we bagged a striker in the summer, then i think we'd have picked up more points than we did in 2022 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's best for all concerned - we get a much needed injection of cash, we show that we can be a stepping stone for the next young player and quite frankly we don't have to worry about whether it was all a fluke. Obviously Ben gets his big money / opportunity. He's not a £20m player. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is absolutely no guarantee about that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
