January Transfer window

Yup 2, if we're lucky. I love how the idea of signing a CM is seemingly off the table now that we've missed O'brien... amateurs. -

We're 1 point above Middlesbrough in the table, though they have a very tough game-in-hand tonight against Sunderland. Their window so far... Morgan Whittaker George Edmundson Samuel Iling-Junior Ryan Giles Mark Travers Kelechi Iheanacho Compare that to ours... the difference is absolutely astronomical. That there is how it's done, that is ambition. What our owners have done, and continue to do, is absolutely unforgiveable. Pocketing fortunes from selling our best players, one of which is a born-and-bred Rover and product of Jack's Academy... then having the Club feed off scraps for replacements. Absolute scum of the highest order. -

You've not been quite as in-the-knowy during this window Tommy... have you lost your source? Or, are you opting for an easier life after the shite you've had in the past for your scoops? 😅 -

Oh at derby's, makes sense - thought the other poster meant at every game. -

With O'brien off the cards I wouldn't mind seeing the Club look at a deal for Massimo Luongo - hardly played this season but was pivotal in Ipswich's promotion last season. *sigh* But they probably won't even bother getting a CM now, will they? "Ooo we tried our little best for O'brien, then it got too late..." -

We're missing out on every single one of our targets, almost all for money related reasons despite the fact that we're back to only targeting loans. Low-balling on wages and dragging their feet, all the way until another Club swoops in. They're an embarrassment... penny-pinching, amateur, shameless bastards. We'll sign this left-back i'm sure of that... low wages, no competition etc. But they've had a full month to sign a striker and failed, there is absolutely no excuse - Eustace deserves so much better. -

Indeed, though I recall him Tweeting this; Suppose he must've meant the LET as a collective are doing one, rather than him personally... -

The LET's transfer feed is up; https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/24904098.blackburn-rovers-transfer-deadline-day-january-2025-latest/ Surprised to see Dan Barnes is doing this, normally Elliott Jackson runs it... -

24 hours left of the window… We won’t get O’Brien. We won’t get Mohamed. We won’t get Danns. It seemed like we could maybe salvage the window a little with a good deadline day, the very least they should do after all of the points dropped whilst they did shag all. The quality players linked might have provided a beacon of hope… but nope, if it seems too good to be true it always, always is with Rovers. At best, we might strengthen our bench - whilst those around us have massively strengthened their starting XI. Playoffs seem further and further away each day… buckle up, we’re in for a rollercoaster tomorrow lads! -

Plymouth want Leonard? Think I’ve missed something there aha, who reported this? -

TheRevAshton replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Danns is quick, direct, strong and hungry to prove his potential - think he’d be a fantastic signing personally. Looks class from what I’ve seen and is well beyond his years. Fetch him in if possible, he’ll probably be worth over £50m in the next 2/3 years this lad. -

Who’s got access to Nixon’s patreon? Aswell as the thing about the Egyptian lad, seems there’s one titled “Blackburn desperate for Danns” and another called “O’Brien shock as Derby Swansea come in”. Both seem pretty self-explanatory but interested to see what’s within those, especially the O’Brien one… -

Not a chance this Egyptian lad comes here. Would love it to happen sure, but there are too many other teams looking for a striker right now who could blow us out of the water financially. He'd want a way higher wage than we’d be willing to offer, and we’d be comfortably outbid in an instant… if we even met the asking price in the first place, that is. Call me negative but I’m not even gonna entertain it in the slightest. The sooner they move on from it the better, as we do actually need a striker. -

Last night was a massive example of how important Travis is to us, our midfield was invisible as soon as he went off. It’s very important they get the CM signing right this time, go all out for O’Brien I say and give it a go. -

If we’re gonna make 2/3 more signings, you’d hope a couple of them would be wrapped up today or tomorrow, with us having a game on Tuesday. No doubt both will be done on deadline day though (if done at all, that is!). -

@unleaded - is there anything you can chip in on the Lewis O'brien and Mostafa Mohamed links? (Or any other players!) -

Correct me if i'm wrong, but hasn't Jackson done something like this towards the end of every transfer window over the last couple of years? 😅 -

I've been seeing loads of "Happy Kargbo day" shit on X... Is it just me who isn't excited in the slightest for this signing? Feels very underwhelming, especially given our position and the money brought in. We need proven quality, this seems like more of a shot in the dark. Don't get me wrong, he looks like he has some solid attributes of which we're missing - but it's a gamble, he might absolutely crumble at this level. Really hope there are some more ambitious targets in the pipeline, would make for a pleasant surprise... though this would be very much against the grain, going off the last 4 windows. -

Can someone with connections to the Club get Rudy to give them a call and let them know? As much as I don't really care about Swansea, i'd hate to see them go under because of this. -

Was literally just posting this! A - Does Travis, as their leader, simply have belief in the lads already at the Club? OR B - Has our fan-favourite, homegrown, likeable captain been told to plant some seeds to lower expectations? Could be either, possibly a bit of both! Though I wouldn't be surprised if it's more towards option B... I just don't trust the board in the slightest, past events have exposed just how shady and amateur these individuals are. 🐍 -

Glad to hear we’ve got money to spend, they’re trying bless them! Just read that we’ve also had a £20m bid rejected for Vinicius Jr - our fantastic Venky’s, and the board, are trying their best… -

How can it be done and dusted he isn't even in the country is he? -

Just seen that Monza are after that Mostafa Mohamed, there'll likely be others who join the race too. I'm drawing a line under this one immediately, unfortunately.
