Think it's fair to say from this and the general pattern of your posts that you'll basically back whatever the club do or fail to do, regardless. Not dissing him. Just don't think he's a right back and we don't need another Midfielder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understand #Rovers tried hard for Harrison Reed and thought they were there until Fulham came in with a deal that blew theirs out the water. Still expecting Cunningham in and Mulgrew out. From Sharp Why the f8ck did we leave it that late to try for a player we had here all of last year? You're all over the f8ckkng place Tony and its absolutely infuriating. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tormund Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Why do people think we would have signed Reed? He doesn’t want to move up north ffs! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both put in a massive effort but both lacking in skill. I know it’s transfer deadline day, but, have you been drinking? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Sharp Much as we all rated Reedy was he really what we needed ? Maybe he can play centre half ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever considered that either: - We did try for him earlier and things only got moving late in the window. or - Southampton only made him available late in the window. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigdoggsteel Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Reed would have been class, but would it not have been a mad one? Does it not also suggest we have more money. So why haven't we signed 1 defender yet? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of clubs have proven that you can be VERY successful with loan players. This idea that we have to own a player is outdated imo. But continuity is preferable. We may be able to successful with loan players but that successful side will be dismantled at the end of the season. Surely a team that improves together over a number of yerars is what we need.

You said he lacks skill. He doesn't. I'd call that dissing. I also think that, whilst not a RB, he's a better RB than Bennett, who seems set to play there most of this season.

MarkBRFC71 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Can we still sign free agents? Maybe that's the plan - scrape the bottom of that barrel and see what turns up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim mk2 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Fulham also signed Bobby Reid from Cardiff. So that's 2 Reed/Reids in 1 day. They've signed some good players. Revised my prediction from 3-1 to 4-0 defeat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bidding for Reed and not for a centre half , whilst also letting Mulgrew go is peculiar. I hope this Tosin guy is very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bbrovers2288 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Don’t think reed was ever coming back here no matter how hard mowbray tried, was always wanting to stay down south. Also don’t see where he was playing, not that I don’t rate him but we are packed with centre mids and wasted on the wing. If that’s where he was going why not sign a winger ?♂️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waggy76 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 (edited) Now then , was Mulgrew loaned because the club thought we had signed both Reed and Cunningham ???? Cos at 2031 we have signed no one officially.. Edited August 8, 2019 by Waggy76 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
