Dread to think what the team may be tomorrow. Could be: Raya Nyambe Mulgrew Lenihan Bell Bennett Smallwood Evans Conway Rothwell Graham That team is going to struggle against Brentford and we will literally have no options off the bench, damn Rodwell might even get some minutes. Really is bare bones with potentially Palmer, Dack, Armstrong, Samuel, Davenport and Williams all out. Added to that Gladwin. We Really do need 3 or 4 players through the door ASAP, the injuries have highlighted we are still 3 or 4 short when we get injuries. Maybe it will be a good thing in the long run, might gee them up to sign some players, need to be ones who are good enough to get into the team though.

2 weeks ago we are after QPR's star midfielder, fast forward 2 weeks we are now after QPR's 5th choice striker = Transfer window Venkys style

first season they were awful under Di Matteo, they won 1 of their first 12 games and then Bruce came in and kept them up they played us last home game before we went down and we beat them 1-0. Second season last season they lost in play off final.

sorry to be pedantic it was 2-2, they scored in 89th minute or summet pal

A couple of months ago Mowbray was quoted as saying something along the lines of "we are interested in players, but then you get other teams coming in bidding 5,6,7 million, we can't spend that kind of money" then all of a sudden we are led to believe that we've bid upto £8mil on Brereton, £4mil on freeman and are still after Bauer, followed by us signing a free agent. Just doesn't make any sense.

Sharpe was making out as though a bid had been lodged as well to be fair. If we had that amount of money, it would have been spent, we wouldn't be dragging our feet in the loan window scraping for deals, it's classic Rovers under venkys it seems.

So to all those who have a dig at those saying we dont have any money and its all smoke screens, there you go, we DID NOT make a bid, we may have interest, but HAVE NOT made a bid. It's all nonsense.

maybe their not 'looking' to but probably will do, due to every single frigging transfer deal seemingly taking weeks upon weeks to sort out.

No, Rothwell for me. Davenport looking very lightweight when I saw him in pre-season (twice) and seemed to be lacking something, urgency being the main one, seemed rather lazy in possession. Maybe used to having a lot of time on the ball previously. However played well at Burton. Rothwell looks the better player though, he seems to have a real passion and desire to do well at Rovers.

It's Rodwell just posted it on Facebook

Defo Rodwell that.

He is going on loan, deals agreed with Bradford, fleetwood and Luton, left to play to decide.

Mate of mine is a Norwich fan said he was brilliant for them last season and was disappointed he isn't down there, said the majority of fanbase think same. Personally saw him when he was younger playing for Southampton and he was a real player. Perfect replacement for Smallwood, but with more ability on the ball and a lot quicker.

Yes would have thought so mate. Maybe 2k at Wigan not much more. Bolton away on telly also, but with it being a tea time saturday and not having played there for about 3 years, probably sell out.

Interestingly and maybe quite fortunately we have 1 home game midweek until after March 2019 now. Sheff Utd at home, which I think will attract a decent crowd anyway. The other this year is on a tuesday but is new years day against West Brom, so again, probably another decent crowd. The next one then isn't until March as said, and that's a derby against Wigan, so maybe another decent crowd if we are doing okay. The fixture list has treated us kindly this time. Will be interesting to see how many we take to Wigan away midweek though in November, 4 weeks before Christmas.

Maybe it's the 'competition' that is within the club this season, let's be honest who could we have played instead of him over the last few years. Now he's got Rothwell and Davenport to compete with for that role.

Think everyone will agree with you on that one mate. Good player. I'm still baffled as to why we aren't looking at wingers, to allow us to play bennett in smallwood role.

Travis is going out on loan, Bradford, Luton and fleetwood made arrangements with rovers, now upto the player.

Harrison Reed, Rodwell and anichebe, please no.

So we've gone from an £8mil striker, £4mil midfielder and £2mil defender to a freebie crock of shit striker, a cheap loan in midfield and someone promoted from the youth team for defence. Predictable I Suppose

And shit

So are Ipswich and Millwall but we didnt beat them either. It's a worry, as we have real top teams of the division coming up now.

Fuck sake. Him on end looks like lenihan

Hope that's a joke

Said since start of season Rothwell needs to start over smallwood and put bennett in central midfield. Although we've currently no wingers in the entire squad bar conway, so we can't. We will lose the game once he brings nuttall on.
