Transfer window opens 14th June. Players back for pre-season on 24th June.

To say Carter was a liability last season is a gross exaggeration.

Carter never played anywhere near as badly as Hyam at Bristol City. That’s probably the worst individual performance I’ve ever seen in a Rovers shirt. He was directly at fault for at least 3 of the goals.

Some good players on there. Bamba only signed for his current club for £5m in Jan. We must have a war chest if he’s being seriously looked at!

Yep, you certainly wouldn’t want him in the trenches with you. He didn’t appear to have the strength of character needed to be captain. Compare with McFadz who looks to me like a proper leader.

Didn’t realise Hyam is out of contract next summer. Might be another that needs selling if he won’t sign a new one. He’d be no great loss based on his last 6 months. He’s also slower than McFadz.

Clubs were waiting until the summer. Chelsea wanted him this summer. There will have been others. it’s irrelevant anyway. The big clubs can afford to wait and often do.

And we sold Wharton on the cheap and so shouldn't have agreed to the ‘standard’. And, again, there is no industry standard. Newcastle did it with a few players, Toney being another they claused at 40%.

Palace knew what they were buying. There’s a reason Bayern and Man City are already being linked. And the pivot role is now one of the most important roles on the pitch because of the way a lot of teams press. You have to very good to cope with that. As JDT said, AW is Champions League quality on the ball, and JDT should know as he won it. And that was a description of a Championship player. It was clear he was a very rare talent. We were selling potential and we massively fucked it up. The only consolation is that whoever signed off that deal is going to look increasingly stupid as each week passes. And I doubt it was Mrs D doing the negotiating!

If he goes for £60m we’ll get another £6m or thereabouts. What ever way you cut it we’ve been had over a barrel.

It’s not standard. Adam Armstrongs was 40%

Yeah should be 20% considering they got him on the cheap

Thanks. I think Nixon has previously said 10-15% for the sell-on for AW.

LT reporting Rovers are due a ‘significant’ fee when AW makes his competitive England debut. The rest of article is behind paywall, does it expand on what ‘significant’ actually is?

Technically he looked a good player, he just looked slow and off the pace. But with a preseason and with now knowing the demands of the league I think you might be right. He’s only got a year left though so think he might be sold this summer.

It’s ‘pundit’ Carlton Palmer who has plucked £8m out of the air. You’d get more sense out of a toddler!

Wait till he turns up as chief scout!

I was actually agreeing with him. Strange. I think we need a signing!

People in transfer thread enjoying discussing potential transfers. Whatever next?!

I’m not even disputing this, Nixon will have a lot of contacts, he’s been doing it a long time. I’m just mentioning a separate article that wasn’t written by him. Sheesh

I’m just telling you what the article said. If you know different then great.👍

How do you know it was ‘clearly his opinion’ and not based on something he’’d been told. You don’t. And he said was there should be funds available.
