I do think people need to relax a bit. Look how many deals are going through at the minute, not just in the championship but across the country. Its holiday season for both footballers and agents. Yes I realise mobile phones exist etc but in terms of getting actual deals signed sealed and delivered you're going to have to wait patiently - it's not that long till July now.

Erm why?

Villa spent 22m on Wesley from Club Brugges didn't they? He's hardly a big name he's just had a decent season in the Juliper, which to be honest is an awful league.

Reading through the blokes Twitter and struggling to find and of his transfer scoops that have actually come off. Just seems to post idle bullshit. He's probably picked up on the fact they've bid for him previously a few years ago. As much as I like Lenihan I'd say the blades need to be aiming a bit higher than him anyway if they wanna stay up

I'd be amazed if we're sniffing round A league players, just seems like a silly season rumour. I'd rather take a punt on Bruno Fornaroli if we're going down that route ?

On the flipside it's a while since Hanley played for us and he played 9 times last season. He always had issues with staying in shape when he was here, but that was mainly due to him liking a night on the town I think. Admittedly I've no idea if he's knocked that on the head a bit now he's a bit older.

Out of contract and its saying we're offering 1m? Sounds legit ?

It'll probably be Marseille reserves, they play Rangers a few days later. I just knew someone would come on here all upset about with though ?

They were in league 1 themselves 4 years ago. Granted they had a decent season prior to last season but still failed to make the play offs. Really struggling to see how they could be seen as a more attractive proposition tbh. I'm not overly bothered if we do miss out on Bauer, I think he rates himself more than others seem to rate him.

They finished 1 point above us and conceded like 2 less goals? What exactly makes Preston so attractive as I'm clearly missing something?

How can they even pass that off as a story? I thought Nixon had exclusive rights to bullshit Blackburn stories too, he wont be happy.

Jansen? That comment is beyond ridiculous.

Gutted I'm off on holiday a few days before Rangers ?

OK I don't if you say so

Or, you could name some

Hell fire people STILL harping on about the big money we've spent when you don't actually know the terms of the deal!

Go on then, who's all these amazing 19 year old starters?

He is 19. Yes 19 years old ffs.

No he fucking hadn't spent that on Brereton, I really, really wish we'd disclose the actual details of that deal. Sounds like you lost on your bets again, Wendy win btts was a banker yesterday

Definitely 4 at the back unless he's got a mad idea of playing Rothwell as a wing back!

Time to shine Rothwell, time to shine

To my knowledge Chapman hasn't played a competitive game for us in the Championship, did you really need that explaining to you? What a pointless comment, we know what most of the first team are/aren't capable of.

Why is there not? He's 21 himself ffs - hardly a seasoned pro at the club.

I think expectations just got a bit ridiculous because of the great run in January, beating WBA and Hull who at that time were the form team in the league. Then we went 2 up at Brentford and were starting to dream, that soon went tits up mind as we all know. I think that game really knocked the stuffing out of us looking back and started the downward spiral. Tuesdays win should give us a much needed lift, granted Wigan are dreadful but it's important to get that winning feeling back.

Won 4-1, Rankin-Costello brace, Vale and Carter with the others. Another 90 under his belt for Chappers I believe. Was only following twitter updates but he seems to be imposing himself more each time he plays. He sounds like he's capable of making the bench for the first team now. Not sure if TM is being sensible or a bit mard with him but personally can't wait to see him back running at defenders.
