It’s definitely a result that asks more questions than answers. Feel we are at the end of a long dark tunnel where we have been before and chose the wrong door, will we choose the same wrong door and go down the same path or have lessons been learned to take the right door for progression. I don’t know. We are either going to be the same kind of team as say a Preston, languishing mid- bottom or we take a gamble to be a top 6. My head says mowbray isn’t a gambler

Did say there was no point adding firepower when our biggest deficiency was at the back, soft underbelly gets you nowhere

I can see it now, we get beat off Brentford and all hell breaks loose on here Saturday night saying we have shown no ambition etc , written in the stars

Not bothered that we haven’t paid over the odds for domestic based players, what I’m amazed at is that we had no overseas players looked at or lined up. Mowbray makes a statement saying it’s a market that we must now look at like it’s a new thing, playing us for fools I fear. Scouting network needs improving massively if it’s just been domestic based.

WBA have parachute payments, different ball game

Well that’s that, I always like getting involved in deadline day for the excitement but it’s all theatre, sounds like we have been sensible. Keeping dack and signing chapman is good by me

I’d have taken chapman back at the start of the window, anything else was a brucey bonus. Defence is still weak for me but right players have to be available

Think a few need to calm down. I don’t think anyone is coming and to be honest I don’t think bursting our summer budget in the hope we sneak into the playoffs and then get through that lottery is worth it. I think the striker links have brushed over the glaringly obvious that our defence needs strengthened more than the forward line. Wouldn’t be surprised if the left field is a defender, back in for Bauer perhaps. i never expected us to rush the divisions, it’s about baby steps, my issue was we we playing terribly but last few weeks has been a lot better. Happy with what we have up top to see out the season comfortably, maybe blood some youngsters if the playoffs become too big a task in prep for next season. I don’t hold the belief that the division will be stronger next year, bottom 3 in prem the now look odds on and none of them scare me. I’d argue that the bottom 3 of champ are stronger than those coming up too. It’s good being a Blackburn supporter again, please take a deep breath and enjoy it. Don’t run before we can walk

Can’t see anything happening, doesn’t feel like anything is close with valuations, wages and other clubs interested in all our supposed targets the stumbling blocks. Shame, still it was nice for a while, actually felt like a semi big club again dining at the top table of transfer targets

followed Gallaghers career after watching a youth cup game and he scored an absolute screamer at Ewood, thought he was head and shoulders above the other lads his age. Thought he done well here last time bar a moment of lost concentration v Preston. Would be more than happy to have him back, and if so on a perm. Don’t know why the negativity around him personally.

I see sky sports have now linked us to ba using the exact same wording as they did when they linked him to Bristol City , odd

I’d prefer che Adams, cracking player

Just a late in the day flurry of activity, such as deadline day

Guys talking about transfers and links to players is exciting, reading about made up wages is very boring, can you give it a rest

Harry is a halve , great signing

Not suggesting boro is a nice area no, your completely missing the point. I don’t think players would be excited about living in either area, if your suggesting boro isn’t of a higher standing than us just now then I really must ask you take off the blue tinted glasses. Have been in the prem last few seasons and are always in the promotion shake up. I remind you we were lg 1 last season after years of mismanagement. Green shoots don’t make a rose garden just yet

Come on lads, I have never once heard a player say I wanted to move to Blackburn for the buzzing cosmopolitan area, haha. Boro have been above us on the footballing ladder for years now

No pitch forks from me mate, I’d still rather you fed us info than being scared of getting it wrong, can’t always be right

Your probably right, I’d be amazed simply amazed if it was anything more than a short term thing, I’d still be delighted with that, ifffff it were to come to fruition

So really a 4 month loan haha

My major issue with the ba link is this- the lad is 26 now, having spent just about all his career in the championship, I imagine following his big money move to boro his next progression is premiership, is he really going to come to us for his best footballing years knowing we are at least 2-3 seasons from being premiership ready. With all due respect to us, he has a much bigger chance of getting to the prem with boro. Dont get me wrong, I have looked on envious of both boro and forest having him, I think he is a fantastic player I just don’t see his motivation for coming to us other than perhaps an end of the season loan if boro aren’t going to play him to put himself in the shop window for a prem move in the summer. But hey listen it hasn’t half made me jump into rovers news every couple of hours just in case, even being suggested to a player of that calibre again is positive. I can see chapman and Gallagher by Thursday night, which I shouldn’t really be disappointed about

Fair play, your a credible source until proved otherwise and you have certainly dropped a conversation bomb in today. Would love it to happen but I just don’t see it

Big difference between pulling of bens Ben and in the top 3 strikers in the division though. I’d never heard of brereton until we were linked to him, could be argued I still haven’t. This would be up there, potentially even number 1 in the surprise rovers signings ever for me if that comes off. Battling it out with Dino Baggio

Not happening pal, at least 12 mill never mind wages. We don’t have the finances

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha You have all been duped an absolute cracker. Fair play madon , wee experiment for you I’m guessing
