"Pinder Binson" has me giggling at my desk right now 😅 Think you mean Tyler Bindon hahaha

Would be an amazing bit of business, and make so much sense. Unfortunately, there a 2.5 million reasons why our Owners won't allow this to happen...

Highly doubt we'll win this "race", probably complete bollocks anyway!

Realised we play Coventry on Tuesday... if BTA himself wants the move here, surely he'll be dying to get it done before that. After a bad stint there and a lot of shit from their fans, it'd be pretty poetic for him to come on late and score the winner for us!

Exactly this... £40m+ raked in from players sales in the last couple of years, that should be seen a massive opportunity for the owners. If they invested a mere 25% of that income, £10m, back into the playing squad... they'd; Make the squad very competitive in this league, with play-offs somewhat nailed-on. On the back of the above, promotion becomes very possible... hello PL riches?! Have fresh young assets, who are likely to double/triple/quadruple in value... Then they could literally just rinse/repeat! Worked for Brentford... Sure, keep a chunk of the proceeds from players sales for the bills, i'd totally understand that... but the issue is that they're using all of it for the bills and neglecting the squad. It's just a matter of time before; the money runs out, the assets are all gone, the squad is in dire straits and relegation is back on the cards... then we're back to needing "£20m" a year solely from them again. Surely, they're fantastic business people... right? So how are they not getting this? Would genuinely love to hear their thoughts on it.

A quick scan online suggests Thelo Aasgaard is on less than £3k a week at Wigan! We could triple his wages, he wouldn't even have to move house, and he'd also probably become a regular starter... it just, makes sense. Obvious issue is the reported £3m fee they want for him. Surely that could be negotiated closer to £2m? Or even less with a player included; Markanday or Garrett for example... Whatever the case, really hope we're looking at him - he'll be snapped up by a Championship team soon enough.

Millwall have signed Aaron Connelly. What a weird career he's having... looks a good player, but apparently likes a drink and has a bad attitude.

Absolutely. As much as I don't really rate BTA, i'm starting to come around to the idea the more I think about his attributes... our attack is missing things that he has - and if anyone can get a tune out of him it's Eustace. Bamford however, would be an absolute disaster all-around.

True! I think Eustace and our League position would be enough to make BTA favour a move here, however Stoke could blow us out of the water on wages offered - suppose it'll make for a good marker on what the player is looking for!

Eustace on BTA; "I don't think anything is imminent in the next few days, not that I'm aware of," Eustace explained. "Brandon is another good player at this level. We have been linked with a lot of strikers already from the league. He's someone with good pedigree and someone who has done well over the last few seasons. "I don't know if there has been a bid. I'm not aware if that's happened and if it has, ok, brilliant." -------------------- Feel like BTA is gonna happen personally... wouldn't be my pick i'll be honest! However, gotta trust Eustace, he knows much more than I do on such matters. He states that "nothing is imminent in the next few days" - somewhat worrying given that there are only 18 days left of the window... we don't have days to waste! Then again - last time he said nothing was imminent, we signed Sanderson and Forshaw in the following 2/3 days... 🤷‍♂️ A lot of fixtures coming up though... and we haven't improved the squad at all. Get a move on!

Oh yeah, he has some positive physical attributes for sure. What I said, is that he's possibly the worst footballer i've ever seen; his touch, ball control, shooting, dribbling, positioning. Absolutely not of Championship standard.

Absolutely class player, would consider the playoffs nailed-on if we signed him. No chance though, his wages are probably huge too!

To start off - I maintain, BTA is shite. I've bagged on him quite a lot since the link came up earlier I must say... but I will admit one thing about the lad - he's definitely not as shit as Makhtar Gueye, despite the fact that Gueye has more goal contributions this season. Gueye is possibly the worst footballer i've ever seen, how he's got to this level is a mystery... Now, if we could offload Gueye for half of what we paid for him, and replace him with BTA for something more around £1m - then i'd agree with many that it'd be good business, and certainly an upgrade. Trying to be less negative about how shit BTA is.

Now this I could get on board with, but our Club is unfortunately run by stupid, useless, tossers.

Coventry fans all think BTA is shit, can't wait to see him go. He's 26 years old. With 19 goals in 97 Championship appearances. He's absolutely shite.

If we spend £1.75m on Brandon Thomas-A-fucking-sante, then I give up. Could probably name 5 strikers off the top of my head, who you'd get way better value out of for that amount of money or less. He doesn't bloody score! Good lord.

Definitely shit then! 😂 Shit players smash it against us

1 goal and 1 assist in 25 games this season... Forgive me if i'm wrong here, but doesn't that make him... shit?

So... £13m? Remember seeing something like that yesterday, let them crack on! He's worth nowhere near that.

On over £20k a week - non-starter. He is a good player tbf (despite his spotty injury record), but it's not about that at Blackburn Rovers... it's all about saving money for the overlords. Actually improving the playing squad is waaaaay down the pecking order.

Looks a baller. Swiss international, contract expires at the end of the season... Makes sense! Which is exactly why we won't be anywhere near it.

Collins, Bradshaw, Rhodes... all way too young and expensive for us lads! I'm absolutely convinced we'll end up with the 35 year old (soon to be 36), ex-dingle, no longer wanted by Birmingham... Lukas Jutkiewicz.

Portsmouth haven't won in their last 9 away games... of those 9 away games, they've actually lost their last 5 in a row. (1 in the cup against Wycombe) They're currently in the bottom 3. Tonight, they're away at high-flying Blackburn Rovers; who will go 5th if they win. We know how this goes guys, seen it too many times. 0-2 Portsmouth.

Waggott: John, Swansea have bid £2m for Ty Dolan and he fancies the move. What you reckon? Eustace: It'll be a shame to lose him, but if he wants it we shouldn't stop him. We can reinvest the money yeah? Waggott: *distracted on his phone* What? Ohhh yeah yeah yeah, course John! Eustace: Alright, get it done quickly then please - we'll need to replace him right away. Waggott: Two steps ahead of you, he's already on his way for a medical! Eustace: Wait wha... right, okay. *Dolan sells for £2m. 2 weeks later...* Eustace: Steve... Waggott: Ah ah ah! What've I asked you to call me? Eustace: *sighs*... Shaggott. Waggott: Haha, yes John? Eustace: Yeah um, I still need a winger and the window shuts in 4 days - what's going on? Waggott: Don't worry John, Scott Sinclair is travelling up from Bristol right now - free transfer! Eustace: He's 35! I need a proper replacement... When Tyrhys sold you said we'd reinvest the money? Waggott: Who? *bites a Wagon Wheel* What money?
