I would assume that's exactly the case, because if he was released tomorrow he wouldn't be able to sign for anyone until January, if players are released within the transfer window then they can join other clubs as a free agent.

No worry at all pal, we won't sell Dack for less than £20mil and West Brom won't pay that.

and why the heck would we replace him with Josh Vela!

Only trains 3 days per week though, as he does the bins Tuesday and Thursdays.

So who's the next multi million signing?

Nonsense, Turkey is a fantastic destination, the UK is more likely to be the subject of terrorism. Tourist numbers have risen around 60% this year for turkey with some holiday companies (around 2.5 million in total), so you are labelling a lot of people thick, pal.

150? Where have you come up with that up from? Deary me. There were a good 400-500 or so in there. It just looks poor. I remember that Mark Hughes days when it was never used for home fans and it looked rubbish. Big Sam sorted that out and ensure home fans were in that end as he said it was important for players to have home fans in the Darwen end and it added to the atmosphere and he wanted all away fans in the upper tier. Forgetting the away fans, please don't tell me it's better with no home fans, and there certainly is more than 150.

That's what I was thinking, especially with Graham playing

fair play mate, bet TM won't be happy with him though, probs come at right time the international week if so.

Makes me wonder whether Dack is really injured or not (although he looked it to be fair). I have heard through grapevine that he is up in Court again next week.

haha yes, none of them can even get a one in 2 rate! Although the Guardian are nearly there

Why is wigan away midweek then?

Just watching highlights and sorry but most were wrong about shutting darwen end it now looks terrible without home fans in and the atmosphere is worse, simple as.

He wasn't free.

May well be but hes not a Richie Smallwood upgrade which is what we need. We need a battler in there, who's job is 95% just that. Rothwell as you say will be looking to pick up and bring out, but we need a smallwood in there, but a championship smallwood like Reed.

He has, just based on the fact Reed is a defensive midfielder, Rothwell isn't, weve had too many players recently playing out of position. Evans I feel you couldn't drop, and he's not getting in instead of dack. And he's definitely not a winger, even if tm would think about playing him there.

Raya Nyambe. Mulgrew lenihan bell Reed Bennett. Evans. Palmer Dack Brereton Subs Canadian, Graham, Armstrong, Williams, Samuel, Smallwood, Rothwell Looks a competive squad, especially considering, you've got the likes of Davenport, Conway, Rodwell, downing, tomlinson and Whittingham not getting in the squad. But still feel looking we need another proper out and out winger and a centre back who is capable of playing as a replacement for mulgrew or lenihan.

You've just totally contradicted yourself. You've said we need a winger, but then gone onto to defend mowbray as to why we have no natural wingers as if you are happy with that.

Many have been calling for bell instead of williams, and with 3 clean sheets in his 4 appearances will add to that call. He is very calm on the ball, doesn't panic like williams, doesn't get beat often or leave men unmarked like williams. Although I've been disappointed with him going forward, which I though would be his main asset, did it so well at fleetwood, however possibly down to instructions.

A very good professional performance, did what we had to, with what we had available. Important win.

Which is why a striker should have been brought in on the first day the transfer window opened.

Pulis said they are looking at 3 in, and there's some not happy that aren't playing that will leave, I'd imagine chapman is one. Be interesting to see where he goes.
