I dunno about this fella. I know we need experience and all, but he's got too many miles on the clock and turns like a Range Rover. Doesn't even live on the same continent.

Not for me.

Let’s have a bit of fun whilst we wait for a left back. 
‘Premier League Club’ make a 5m offer for Dolan. Do you accept it?

Does the Prem club have a dental plan? If so they can set him up with a retainer. Otherwise he may need to brace himself.

@pk1875 , beat this. We are all behind ya. Looking forward to reading your posts again soon.

PNE friend just phoned to say they are also in for Cunningham

He’d be like the second coming at this point.

If we signed him 3 weeks back I'd have been happy, but if he does signs today I'll be likely coming.

@AllRoverAsia @The Gull Excellent idea! Thank you for the suggestion. I am going to try that out when I get home tonight. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to read about incoming defenders. Fingers crossed!

According to this line in today's LT article on Scott Wharton:

The first of those could be tied up shortly, with Rovers having made progress in the long and drawn out negotiations with Manchester City over Tosin Adarabioyo and hope to finally announce a season-long loan deal.

Thank you! I haven't been able to access that website for the best part of a year now. The pages never load for me. I miss it a lot. I wonder if it is because I'm located in Korea?

Anyway, appreciate the info, chief!

Tosin back on again then? Can't keep up!

It is? Was there more developments?

Regarding the ridiculous search for CBs. If Bauer was on the 'A' list of lore, I wonder who was on the 'B' , 'C', 'D' , and 'Scramble' list?

I'm definitely in the camp that had hopes of Adam signing. It would have been a gamble considering that he is pushing on, but he has talent to spare. Good vision, cracking shot, and a mean streak. Could have been good for us. But here we are.

Have to say I would be very underwhelmed by Walton and Eastwood. 

Very much so.

Sorry lads, I know I am possibly asking something that has already been answered. But is it true to say that the expected in-comings for today are Walton and Adarabioyo?

And then, (possibly later this week?) we should be welcoming the experienced keeper and centre-half?

Just now, Miller11 said:

. The whole demanding of more info and revealing of sources is pointless. The digs are out of order. 

100%

That man's info has been keeping us informed and amused all this window. It was given freely and he wasn't acting stuck up and superior about what he was passing on at all.

Just now, yeti-dog said:

I'd see Walton as a sort of straight swap for Raya which means I'd still like an oldie with a couple more seasons in him so there's a genuine challenge for the No 1 position.

Absolutely. I can't speak to the quality of Walton one way or another but it's not quite the name we've been waiting on all these weeks.

I reckon it’s Foderingham and Adarabioyo today but they seem confident now about the main keeper too...hopefully all three!? ?

Cheers!

Is the older keeper supposed to be in today?

Just now, JacknOry said:

Earlier in the window, Sharpe said that Bauer and a young option were our top priorities. So, am assuming this is our young option and that we're still on for a more experienced CB.

I'd forgotten that. Easily done when there is so much drip feed via twitter, here, and other sources. But yeah, timely reminder. Cheers! Let's hope it comes to fruition.

Hopefully he's not the only defender.  

Couldn't agree more. He could prove to be a very welcome addition, but I'd be somewhat disappointed if he turns out to be our only acquisition for the back 4.

Desperately unlucky for Davenport. I wonder will his injury be factor in the likes of Evans/Smallwood/Gladwin staying put OR Charlie Adam being offered a contract.

Is Carson a talker? I wonder if the idea behind getting an experienced guy in the nets is so that the likes of Magloire or Wharton will have a man in their ear throughout the match.

'that pigeon's been shagged to death'

?

I love it!

What would the feeling be in we lost out to Wigan for the services of Gallagher? I'd be peeved given that he has been our radar for so long and I think he can be very good for us.

I know that some posters are less enthusiastic about his signing, so would it be okay if he picked Wigan?

The likes of Bauer, Barbet, Lindsay, Bidwell and Pinnock would have all improved our defence but have all gone to rivals...

 

This is ticking me off. I really, really hope we have some warriors lined up.

I wonder what kind of a fee Southampton would be looking for? I'd be quite satisfied if he signed up. Not one to have us dancing in the street, but solid.
