I'd say if they've got big money to throw down then fair play but we won't hardly see a fucking penny... So no point selling him. They'll definitely entertain offers though and wouldn't be surprised if his agent knows the magic number and has been doing his best to find a buyer.

I considered Brittain gone a while ago, so I'm glad they've moved to actually try and replace him. Signing a big, physical international at a good age as a replacement I can't really complain at. What I can complain about is that this summer we're still in the green. Our sales out weight our buys so any talk of a budget etc... is absolute bullshit. They need to put their hands in their pockets and bring in some attacking talent, specifically on the right and a number 10.

Our net spend is in the green by my calculations, or at least breaking even. Obviously we don't know the undisclosed fee's but you can make a guesstimation. Sales: JRC: 750-1m Kid to Chelsea- 1m Dolan- 270k Sales = 2.27m Buys: De Neve: 300k (maybe less) Mcgloughlin 500k Alebiousu 500k (maybe less) Tavares Probably 750k (2 million is absolute bullshit) Between 2 & 2.25m Give or take the sales and buys tally and correlate to a spend what you bring in plan. So in my opinion, we've spent absolutely fuck all so far, depends on how gullible you are about the Tavares fee. And let's not forget, there are still players likely or who could possibly leave, Buckley, Brittain, Trav, Tronstad. I guarantee, we'll be in the green by the end of the transfer window.

Said before but the most realistic signing is like to see them make on the right is Koki Saito. News around him is quiet.

As stated above... If they can't improve that position to play ahead of Hedges, I'd argue it's a signing not even worth making.

Rovers pushing an article for Mullarkey Mathews... They're probably angling as Dolans replacement so they don't have to spend. Is he any good?

This subject really pisses me off. I'm sick of other people telling you how you should feel about the subject like we're fucking stupid. We all know why he left. We know the club is a joke. Where the fuck do you think we've been for the last 15 years? Still, I'm a Rovers fan, I want my club to succeed under these shite circumstances and this guy is essentially trying to buy our league position from us. I understand why but it's not going to stop me from being pissed off about it. I'm bitter about it it all, allow people to spiteful and bitter about it all, it's a fucking message board where I come to vent... Not to be all nicely nicely... Someone said the way I spoke about Eustace "does me no favours"... Like what the fuck are you on about? I'm trying to vent my frustrations with fellow Rovers fans, not get brownie points, impress anyone or convince others to feel the way I feel... Eustace is going to make my experience of supporting Rovers worse, I'm pissed off about it, I'm pissed off at the club, folk simply need to just understand that, it ain't hard.

It's not necessarily blame, put it this way... You've got a fit missus who you love (Rovers) and an old best mate that fucks you off (Eustace) then starts tapping her up saying "I've got more money, more ambition" etc... What you gonna do? Say... "Oh well, can't blame him" Or are you going to call him every name under the sun? He can fuck off.

With all due respect... He'll entertain whoever is willing to pay him the most and let's not pretend that's not how footballers operate.

Hopefully not true. The people at Rovers need to have some fucking business sense. Derby are essentially trying buy our league position. Fuck them off. Sell to Boro instead.

Fucking hate the people running this club

Like asking... "Would you rather be kicked in the nuts or punched in the nuts?". I blame Venkys.

Jesus christ. It's a damning indication of how boring this transfer window is when there's in depth discussion on the ability of Derrick fucking Williams... One of the most beige, nothing, average championship footballers we've had 😂

Beck is a great little player. His physicality surprised me for his size as he's really aggressive but it did tell over a season that he wasn't robust enough yet to hack it week in week out.

It's stuff like this that makes the banning of peptides even more ridiculous.

There will be a baseline where he'll be getting paid what he's on for his club but paid extra based on appearances.

He doesn't do it. He wanders into too many unthreatening areas of the pitch trying to be a playmaker and his finishing/shooting is awful. He's a flashes of brilliance player but those bits of ability aren't in the final third enough.

I think we're lacking a small tricky creative number 10 type. Someone who can take a shot on from range... An Ilias Chair type.

With all the respect in the world... If he can't make it in league 1 and league 2 he shouldn't be anywhere near playing in a Rovers kit. He's not good enough. He's had multiple chances and not taken them. Someone else deserves a go.

Think everyone is getting a bit carried away after today. It's obviously good that they've put in a performance against a prem side but the championship is a totally different kettle of fish than a meaningless pre season friendly. Reserve your judgement after the first 90 mins of the season. Fingers crossed they over achieve again.

I got my hopes up then that we were signing Bali Mumba. Cracking little player IMO.

Wharton wasn't good enough before he got injured IMO... Now he's been out for over a season I can't imagine he'll be coming back an improved player.

From my understanding he was overseas with Hull for pre season and the bid has only just been accepted.

You have to simply look at it as a club trying to take our players to take our league position... So fuck em, sell to Boro.

You'll eat shit and like it... Pay for it even.
