BBD Dack and Thomas behind Gally through the middle, it’s about time Gally got a run down the centre. If we don’t bring a striker in he HAS to step up. I hope we get a striker in though.

If it’s true and we’ve landed O’Brien then that is some signing. Wow.

Even if we didn’t bring anyone in you’d still defend the club, and if we do bring a striker in and he’s not a good player you’ll say he’s the next ronaldo like you did with Hirst, you were the only Rovers fan who watched Hirst and still rated him and thought he could do a job, thank god the club saw sense and got rid.

I’d like to think, presuming we are attacking our fans in the second half that when he comes to take his place in goal for the second half we could give him a warm reception and a quick chant.

What makes you think that? 😂

Not a chance he comes here.

Injured, may even be out for the season

Good old Nixon 😂

Agree! Disagree!

It’s not controversial, it’s just plain incorrect! I don’t think he got too many assists in the league one season but I remember when he first joined us he was literally getting an assist every game!

Maybe it’s come from our new head of recruitment being a Welshman also?

Sorba Thomas was class last season in the Huddersfield team that finished in the top six, not quite at the same level so far this season but for me he’d still be a good signing. Get him in I say.

There’s no way they reappoint Big Sam. £50 down the swanny that, Merce. Quote this post when he gets the job on a deal till the end of the season 😂

Don’t pay for sky Chaddy. Get a chipped firestick, 60 quid for the year and you can watch every single rovers game you don’t attend live 😉

Work permit rules make things incredibly hard in terms of bringing people in from that region. Unless you’re Burnley and you can afford the best ones.

Then if we’d have convinced Fergie to come back after Hirst was recalled he’d soon be walking straight back out the door if he had to play Vale up top instead 😂😂

Hahahahahahahaha, if all our players were free agents tomorrow only Dack BBD Hyam and maybe Kaminski would be picked up by a top six club. We’re starting games with Vale up top, he wouldn’t get into a league two team. Get a striker in and a physical presence in the middle of midfield and maybe we have a sniff of the top six, but I’m not convinced.

Did you watch the game? I watched the full 90 minutes on the firestick and Vale did nothing today except fail to get a hold of the ball and then when he had the ball all he did was give it away. He was absolutely shocking today. I don’t want to hammer him to much because he’s a young kid but he shouldn’t be playing championship football, he needs a loan to League two or the conference.

Vale should be sent out on loan, the fact he’s starting games in the championship shows how much our squad is lacking quality, fingers crossed we can finish this window strong and push on in the summer to get this squad where it needs to be next season. As usual recently, today was such a poor game to watch but getting a point with 10 men you can’t grumble. We just lack quality all over the pitch.

Jesus how on earth are we anywhere near the top six with a starting eleven like that? Relegation fodder that starting lineup today. Watch us win 3-0 now…

The @Madon special

We wish, no chance.

Good appointment for Blackpool, he’ll keep them up.

To be fair signing a 27 year old goalie is probably the equivalent of signing a 23/24 year old outfield player. I imagine the club is looking to move Pears on.

Most back up premier league GK’s are English as it goes towards filling the quota of HG/English players (I think) hence why Scott Carson is still on the books of Man City and United had Lee Grant for a few years. Steele is a poor goalie and 1 PL appearance in 5 years or whatever it is tells you all you need to know.
