Here's the snippet from the article which features said quote (remembered that the article is hidden behind a paywall, fortunately I know a way around it); -

Yup, in this article: https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/24844743.eustace-blackburn-rovers-ambition-west-brom-links/ I fully agree on your last line. Most of the links have been shite, not a single player I would consider 'too good' for us - shocking take from Eustace. -

Look at this line from the latest LET article (the one with Eustace distancing himself from the WBA job); "Obviously, the football club are doing very well at the moment and we are being linked with players coming here who are maybe 'too good' for us. Because we are doing well, that is happening." I'm sorry... what? Have I missed articles linking us to Declan Rice, Nico Williams and Alexander Isak or something? Players we've been linked with this window... Kwame Poku Jeffrey Schlupp Ryan Kent Tyler Bindon Augustus Kargbo Grant Hanley Liam Kitching Mohamed Farsi Who on earth, out of those players, could be considered 'too good' for us?! Ryan fucking Kent I assume? Behave. It's just the usual lowering of expectations. Forget about proper backing, they want us to be buzzing when we sign some cheap, young, inexperienced tosser on loan. -

I feel certain that we're gonna end up with either Andre Gray or Daniel Jebbison - though the latter is probably the least likely of the two due to Bournemouth's injury problems. -

There's a (almost certainly BS) rumour on X that Sunderland are "frontrunners" to sign Brittain. It's gonna be painful when someone comes in for Tronstad, it'll probably be a team like Leeds who'll be able to offer him a bumper pay rise. -

Probably only gonna get worse... - Siggy will be sold. - Dolan likely to have bidders, so he'll be sold. Then it's also very possible that there'll be interest in the likes of Tronstad, Brittain and Cantwell. -

To be fair to the lad, he was the first to break Baker being recalled. -

Yup, here's a visual on that squad "depth" but with Garrett added in since I reckon he'll have to stay; What on earth are they waiting for? We're screwed if practically any of those players pick up an injury or illness, especially the likes of Tronstad, Batth or Beck. -

What's with the shite loans for our players these days? Duru could easily cut it at League One level, or in the Scottish PL. A League Two loan seems pointless, the only positive being that he'll likely get a good bunch of minutes down there. -

Eustace: I'm gonna need a left-sided centre-back with Picks injured - can you sort it guys? Gestede: Sure John we'll loo... Waggott: Leave this one to me Rudy. *Starts a phone call* Gestede: Who you ringing? *Waggott bites a Jam Tart, then winks at Rudy* Waggott: *On the phone* Hello! How're things over at Coventry pet?! Hahaha, anyway - you got any defenders that you don't want by any chance? Have noticed that Liam Kitching lad is hated by your fans, what about him? -

From Elliott's Article; - No signings before the Middlesbrough game. - Liam Kitching deal in the balance as he played on the weekend, but would likely be a loan. - Jeffrey Schlupp has plenty of other interest, won't happen anytime soon if at all. - Ryan Kent unlikely. - Grant Hanley not being pursued. Not a single sign of ambition or proper investment. -

Ziderm was an absolute baller! We could’ve signed him back in the day, but Uncle Jack declined stating that we don’t need him since we had Tom Sherlood. -

He's just a pure Club shill is Elliott... does exactly what he's told. No offense to the lad but he's a right useless tosser. -

Noticed the Lancashire Telegraph haven't even reported on Baker's departure yet, there should've been something ready to publish immediately upon it being announced. Bloody useless they are! -

Ahh man how perfect would Lewis O'Brien be as a signing right now... wish we had ambitious owners. -

Now that we've lost Baker, i've realised that he was probably better than Rodri. -

Recent events have made it so that Baker being recalled is a bit of a disaster. They have to sign a replacement in the next few days. Things are actually stacking nicely to put pressure on the owners to invest; loss to the dingles, interest in Eustace, league position, Baker recalled... slight problem though, they don't give a shit! -

It's feeling all too familiar, this waiting around. Eustace, the best manager we've had in a very long time, has stated the urgency for new signings on numerous occassions. This is a perfect little gap to bring players in, with us not having a league game until next Wednesday, and so far they've probably all sat there twiddling their thumbs. We've made north of £35m in player sales in the last couple of years, and we're in a very good state regarding FFP. Eustace right now should be able to say "Offer Leicester £5m for Tom Cannon"... but the owners just won't want to do that, despite the manager having us around the top 6 after they sold his best players and failed to appropriately replace them. They're absolute scum. We'll never be able to capitalise on our position without proper investment, we'll never return to the PL under them. -
