Indeed. It’s going to be infuriating should that happen as the bloke is such a breath of fresh air.

I’m on holiday until the weekend. I can pretty much guarantee I’ll miss the square route of bugger all. The ‘urgency’ to ever get things done at our club is beyond alarming.

What did ‘Aye’ have to say about Khadra?

Players are (not) coming.

Jeez that is a cracking signing. Some decent business happening in and around us.

Dack in injury shock. I’m sure it’ll be the first of many this season, unfortunately.

And even then it’ll be Prem loanees. And as we’ve seen before, those youngsters are a complete lottery as to whether they’ll have much impact.

I’ll tell you what his update will be now: ’Despite the frustration over deals taking longer than hoped, it is now thought that there will be signings in before the Dundee game.’

"We will sign players of similar ability or even better.. " Chaddy. What has the last twelve years shown you on that front, pal?

I'm looking forward to Sharpe's update after annual leave. "For one reason or another, Rovers couldn't quite get players over the line before the Accy game, but the expectation is there will be new bodies in before Dundee." Rinse and repeat.

Yep, or can we act quickly enough. The answer to the latter under this regime, has largely always been 'no'. The proof will be in the pudding, but you've gotta say we surely need to bring in a couple over the next week or so otherwise alarm bells will well and truly be ringing.

Our neighbours with yet another signing today. It’s getting a little concerning you’d have to say.

We can occasionally come out with a left field move or two, but this is going to have to be off the charts left field for us to actually get a signing or two in over the next couple of days when there is absolutely zero rumours.

I don’t think the LET have ever once been right with their ‘club are hopeful of making additions before X’ statements. Our lack of incomings will rumble on for a while longer yet.

We basically need to hope that no other Championship club come in for players that we want, because we get trumped every single time. Does feel like there needs to be more flexibility in this wage structure of ours.

Season starts in four weeks though.

Yep. I’ve said before, but to date he’s a half season wonder. A poor season and end of contract or not, he won’t have the high profile interest he has now.

He'll surely leave. His stock will never be this high again IMO and he'll have every man and his dog in his ear telling him to cash in now. You could easily imagine a couple of PL teams / clubs on the continent paying him £50k+.

If you check out his Insta it screams, ‘concentrate on your bloody football’.

Ryan Giles supposedly off to Boro on loan (is there anyone they’re not getting?). Just didn’t happen for him here, but Mowbray had a big part to play in that.

I do hope JDT puts a size 10 right up the arse of anyone who doesn’t get on board. Loving what I’m seeing / hearing from the fella early doors. Let’s just hope he gets the supposed promised backing.

Dack looked like he was taking the piss at one point in a video I saw too.

Great to finally get this over the line (work permit pending). Just a shame that the club have kept on Lowe and Benson. Hopefully Broughton and JDT will see enough of them over the coming weeks and their cards will be marked. Now let’s get some players in!

Drop the H and we have our very own Mr Line of Duty.

Yep. Believe I’ve read Sharpe saying JDT shouldn’t have similar issues on that front. Announcement tomorrow I would imagine.
