More chance of signing Mr Blobby.

He'd be a significant upgrade on most of our Summer signings.

He would certainly terrorise defenders

Seems content for Sunderland currently

The Simms things reeks of some of the non starter names they desperately threw about in January's when Mowbray was here.

The lad at Boro on 35k a week was one example, think we ended up spending half a mill on Markandy and signed Giles - a wing back - on loan.

There is NEVER a plan here.

[B16Rover]

You know what, I'm sold 

[jim mk2]

Simms doesn't make sense on any level - cost / wages / Rovers' current predicament to name just a few

This is the danger of social media and AI - most of it is worthless slop for the masses. Musk and Zuckerberg win again

Alf Thornton and proper journalists like him would be appalled

I have a feeling that the bizarre transfer Nixon is talking about will end up being Duncan McGuire or a former player

I'm thinking something similar, maybe somebody we looked at in the past but didn't follow up on... 

Marwan Al Sahafi-esque

With this lot I wouldn't even be surprised if it was Kazuyoshi Miura - that 58 year old Japanese striker

[Waggy76]

Cauley Woodrow ?

[London blue]

JDT back but as a striker?

[Polky]

Makhtar Gueye returning on loan until the end of the season.

That had crossed my mind too

[TimmyJimmy]

Love it B16. This lad's show real looks really promising.

I’m betting Val is silenced today in his pre match presser 

Why do some people seem to think he gives a ****?

Yeah, that was my initial reaction. Either that or someone even more bizarre from another poor league.

Irrelevant really 

[rovers11]

Ellis Simms? Is this another one of Elliot Jackson's exclusives?!

Absolutely no chance. 

Some randomer from the scandi leagues is far more likely.

I'll have no King Kazu slander here. An all Japanese front three would be great for the marketing.

 

(for the love of all that's holy I am not being serious do not give them ideas)

[aletheia]

bizarre -it's Rudy and VI getting their boots on isn't it.....

[MarkBRFC]

Is Nixon suggesting we're going to get two in before the deadline then?

I just don't see it.

[Comfortably numb]

Dapo Afolyan is the name apparently

Not sure why that would be so "bizarre"

Nixon himself linked us with him in the summer and did an article on it!
