islander200 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 At least when we go with our begging bowl to Southampton for Gallagher they are more likely to loan him to us with Ings looking likely for Southampton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just need to go and get a player in quickly. Even more important Dack has a completely injury free season imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igloo5090 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 The bids for Freeman and brereton, whilst admirable, have obviously just been placed to placate fans. I am absolutely certain that there was no intention of signing either of those players. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what? Rovers have failed to sign someone on a permanent basis today, there are still 21 days or so of the loan window to go and within those days there is opportunities to sign them permenantly . Some of you really need to rant in the bathroom and take a break from this forum it will make you ill. in the meantime get yourselves to Ewood on Saturday our boys have a big game to play and Ned fans to get behind them. I thought you said earlier in the window that fans just needed to be patient? Didn’t quite work out ay? But still, have a pop at other posters like seems to be your way these days...

ChrisPriceBaldSpot Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I for one am not of the opinion that this has been a major cock up. We have a few weeks to sign loan players and I would be more than happy with Harry Chapman, Gallagher and maybe another on loan. TM was never gonna sign anyone that upset the balance of the dressing room and maybe he is sensible enough to make sure we end up with the right men.

Pedro Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 The main positive from us not signing anyone today is that we can keep our imaginary money to pretend to spend big in January. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So your not dissapointed that we had 4-5 million to spend on a player (if true) but have missed out on our targets.If we have that level of funding then the manager must be as gutted as most fans not to at least get 1 over the line today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only have a very limited income - spending way above that means you walk a very narrow line in terms of FFP. If you get up - great. If not you face problems that impact on the club for years to come. Whether we like it or not we have to live within our means. Having renewed contracts over the summer - on improved wages - our expenditure has increased. This isn't fantasy football - in the real world you have to cut your cloth to what you can afford. The manager will know better than any of us who he needs and I've no doubt that a loan or two will arrive before the end of the month. I have every confidence that the manager will ensure we don't go down and maintain our Championship status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but if we believe that we are bidding 4 and 5 million it suggests there is money available and we would still be FFP compliant. If true then the club has missed out on a couple of targets today, I'm sure Mowbray is dissapointed so why wouldn't the fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
