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.

"No, obviously nobody's in at the moment. The club are working very hard to make sure we try and get a couple of good players in before the end of the window" Eustace said. A couple. Started off as needing 2/3, then after injuries it should have turned into 4/5... but now it's down to a couple. *sigh*

One is obviously Kargbo, who's the other I wonder?

Shame i'd have loved us to get that Cissoko! To be fair, the lad at Hibs looked pretty handy as well in the 2 minute compilation video I saw of him... 😅

Well done to the dev's in getting the site back up and running in just a few hours - we finally have somewhere to collectively moan about Rovers again! 😅 (But no seriously well in lads, CloudFlare issues can be a nightmare as far as i'm aware)

Am I right to assume that Cissoko would be a loan? Haven’t seen Nixon’s article

Annoying isn’t it! Teams around us, and way below us in the table are signing some top players… and we’re pissing around as usual, unwilling to pay an extra £200k for a lad who’s apparently been a target for a while (Kargbo). Shambles. They’re at it again lads, buckle up!

No wonder, poor lad doesn't have anything to report!

Absolutely no chance unfortunately. For the record, where did you see this?

Imagine he'd be well out of our price range... though I agree, he'd be a top signing.

Hoping this will be the case! Of course, provided that the initial links aren't just entirely made up.

2 spaces would need freeing up - we could drop Joe Hilton for a young academy keeper, not sure about the second but just feel like there'll be an outgoing that could accommodate it (Dolan or Sigurdsson maybe). Leonard doesn't need to be registered due to his age (though i'd still loan him out regardless).

A reasonable end to the window for me now looks something like this; LB - Harry Toffolo (Loan) CM - Dan Barlaser (Perm - £750k?) LW - Ibrahim Cissoko (Loan) LW/ST - Augustus Kargbo (Perm - £1m) ST - Marcus Forss (Perm - £2m?) With the money we've brought in, that should be very achievable and not too far out of reach... Just won't happen though, will it? We'll end up with way worse. Really hoping for a positive end to the window, though I fully expect we'll be let down!

Some lad on BlueSky says Cissoko was at the training ground - this the name you've heard?
