Just loan for us, not option to buy.

No. Way to expensive.

Smallwood to league one right? We will sign atleast one but should get two over the line by tomorrow.

Im lost of word. My info earlier was not wrong, the deal between club was 100%, just an issue with the payments as explained. Now, in the last 2 hours, one other Championship-club has come in for the same player. The odd thing - its a bid and not for loan. Did not get specifics but was told that the bid was ridiculosy high. The club consider but rates him highly and would prefer loan. This is just bad negotioans-tactics. The deal could have been done and officially annunced yesterday if Mowbray was a bit more cynical.

Totally agree. His understanding of it, like he said today, is that if he promises game-time and put the player on the bench is that they will never loan him players again. I get that but at the same time no manager will loan at potensial stars to a manager who says he will put them on the bench.

Best one yet??

The issue with these loan-signings (and its been a lot of possibilities) is that other managers are a lot more cynical than Mowbray. A man of his word, and I can respect that, but it doesnt give you much when you negotiate.

Lets just say that if Antonio chooses Rovers over the clubs wanting him i give all credit to Mowbray. Thats a hard one.

My guy doesnt now everything, maybe we have 2 in the pipeline???

Right footed and brown/blonde hair but that represent a huge prosentage of footballers so it doesnt prove if im guessing or not. But like ive been told (before Sharp wrote about it); Mowbray is very firm on promising game-time and thats not a positive thing when you want to loan a player. Thats been a "deal or no deal" several times the last two weeks but this time my guy said its 100% but the annuncement depends on when the agreement about the payments is done. To note: My guy was right about Juan Castillo at Chelsea in the summer. That ended up in the "no-deal" because of games.

Its not like I think if a say the name it effects the deal somehow BUT my guy told me not to. Yes, you can say thats stupid but I want to keep my word and keep getting information. In fact he gave me to names just to spin my head but both of them goes under surprising but good. So ether one is more than fine by me

Because a moron here figured out my real name because of my username and started inboxing me on other social media demanding to tell him where I got my information from.

Had to change username because of a few people on here. Take it or leave it. Ive been told, plain and simple, that the loan from the prem club is done. Most likely to be annunced today - the only "issue" is the size of the payments paid from Rovers if he not plays a certain amount of games. Mowbray is firm on this and makes things difficult but my guy said the deal is 100% and therefore not a issue of the size "deal or no deal" - just a issue that needs to be sorted before making it official. No names but judging by the games ive seen and i supposed the average football-fan, this is a good one. Surprising but good one.
