BREAKING NEWS Nottingham Forest can confirm that the contract of head coach Sabri Lamouchi has been terminated with immediate effect. Just in time for us playing them next match

Exactly, no way in a million years could we have afforded either wages.

For over a month I have been playing with the idea of Haitam Aleesami for Rovers. The one position where Rovers must bring in a new player. Would have been perfect for both Rovers and Aleesami. Hope there will be some of this. Quote Tweet Stian André de Wahl @StianWahl · 2h Blackburn are chasing the signature of Haitam Aleesami. The hill may end up in England: https: // nettavisen.no/sport/champion ship-klub-vilha-haitam-aleesami / 3424027613.html

There’s a difference between making a team look poor (which we did) and them being a poor team

You mean the poor Derby team that won away at Norwich today?

Seriously if there was ever a time for Rovers to gamble slightly on new recruits it's now. Also please, all Rovers fans who haven't renewed yet, think again the club needs support now on and off the field more than ever

Only 1 more game before the break though and hopefully have 2 or 3 back by then.

Keep up the criticism, always seems to work? Anything else to say 3-0

I'm just happy we're still in the market for a lb. It was beginning to sound as if TM was happy going with Bell for the rest of the season. I agree with a lot of people on here, were not that far short of being in with a real shout this season if we recruit well

Playing hypothetical, assuming TM has approx 1.5m to play with, which is not an unreasonable guess. If he needs say minimum of 2 players, ie a lb and either keeper back up or Travis cover, a signing on fee of £200,000 - £250,000 per player should leave enough for salaries of around £10,000 pw which again is probably about where Rovers are. Or is that too simplistic?

Fair point! Still an option worth consideration though imo

Don’t quite get this, surely there is a 3rd option besides spending and loans and that’s using the free agent market? Ayala hopefully is proof of the quality available atm. Not sure if free agents are entitled to signing on fees or not though?

What area could possibly need strengthening before lb? Don't get that at all, know Travis is a miss but we do have alternatives there.

Barry Douglas then?

A good day. Let's hope for an even better week on the transfer front!

Top player and would love him here but fear could be out of our reach.

Chris Price, the original Duracell bunny

Absolutely

Always got the impression he was mainly left sided but looks equally at home with either foot which is a bonus

The real problem is that season ticket prices at Rovers have been so cheap for so long, people didn't appreciate it. Weren't they among the cheapest in the whole 4 divisions for many seasons but people didn't complain then. This increase makes it seem excessive but I bet (without checking) that these are still among the very cheapest in the championship

Got mine Chaddy. Coyb's

A hunch

I remember Don Mackay once saying that the very first question he asked a potential signing was "Do you want to play for Blackburn Rovers? “

Kipre not even on bench for wba, Injured or sign of things to come?
