BLACKBURN- Brerton chase heating up, more later.

Nicko

Deffo something in this based on him missing the game for forest last night.

Ideal signing for us, 19 and already 50 games in the championship. A potential Graham replacement.

I'd say this deal is moving fast as Nixon has moved quickly and posted a story on it, although he does say Forest want 12million for the lad. 12 million effing quid for a 20 year old that has only played 50 Championship games!!

I think the local Reading Journo is called Jonathan Low not Jonathan Lowbaby  @jonathanl50

Local Reading paper reckons Maddison is on the move but not to them. I reckon we've probs sniffing around him all summer but he's holding out for a Derby or Leeds to come in. I wouldn't be surprised if last 

nights bid for Freeman was a gee up to Maddison and his agent.

Who says we're signing someone? 

I thought Zac Clough was the supposed mystery player who travelled down to Blackburn last night. Im doubting it to be honest as a quick search on twitter and you'll see he's been buying a new car today; pretty resourceful guy signing for a new club and buying a new car all in the same day.

If the  player is Zac Clough talks were done pretty quick as he's been out buying a car this afternoon!

Regarding strikers I dont think it's Bamford who Mowbray is alluding to as the 7m striker I thinks it's the deal for Martyn Waghorn

Keep calm on the Maddison front. Things happening behind the scenes.

How confident are you. Come on give us a little bit of info.

Reading the posts from Peterboro "ITK's" it seems that they have received two bids for Maddison from low level Championship clubs. We're going to be totally disappointed when it turns out to be Rotherham.

Fair point, it's just usually by now we have an idea of who we are looking for in terms of calibre and how that would fit in to how we would play, but I am just hearing cheap inexperienced loans. Hopefully that is not the case.

Not that I think we are in for Maddison, but the the bid from Derby was for Jack Marriot!
