Oh dear, that’s no fun. There’s someone working at Aerospace in Burnley telling folks he’s Whiteman's brother and he’s signed/signing for Rovers!

Left back money has been reallocated to CM after Bells performances and Travis’ injury? I’ve no idea, I almost don’t believe it myself, but Sparks is right his family think he’s coming to Rovers.

In that case, allegedly Mowbray was at his house on Monday and it’s all signed. Source - his brother.

I don’t understand how it works but his brother works at BAE and has told everyone Whiteman is coming to Rovers. Supposedly Mowbray was with him on Monday. Can we even sign players still?

Sparks is going to love this... but I’ve just been told we’re signing Ben Whiteman...

Please. Do not question The Cat.

Cardiff are a good side, they’ll be challenging for 6th this season based on today alone. The weather didn’t help us and benefitted them. Dolan is going to need to get used to being clattered and still deliver for us if he’s to stay in the team, the element of surprise has been lost. 0-0 isn’t a bad result all things considered, into the international break in 6th place. Dack would have made a difference today, I would like us to have the 4-2-3-1 option available to us.

I’m sure they will - I just think styles wise they’ll come off better here. Their defence is stronger than Wycombe and Derby and whilst their attack may not be as strong as Derby, it’s a different approach. Kaminski will have balls raining down on him and we’re essentially asking one of Lenihan/Williams to beat Moore in the air more often than not. I can’t see it, but I hope I’m wrong.

U23 football is completely different, I suspect he will need at least another full 90 minutes and some behind closed doors games. I listened to the CounterAttack Adam Armstrong podcast this week - he said it’s around 50% of the pace of senior football and there’s never any pressure to win, it’s more important to ‘learn’.

I don’t see how Ayala can be fit enough already for a war with Moore.

I know it’s negative but I think we will lose today. Their strengths are our weaknesses.

He’s 28, it’s his last big move, he will go wherever the money is.

For the love of god Balaji, give him the money for a left back.

Hasn’t someone posted the team earlier in this thread? Same starting 11, some tweaks on the bench including Ayala coming in.

If I know this club, they’ll turn the single game iFollow pass off...

Yeah, best to leave it, it’s cripplingly boring for the rest of us watching you lot argue then call each other baby and sweet cheeks.

Ah, I thought Chaddy said he has 9 months left.

If Whiteman has 9 months left his best option is to see it out. He’ll probably treble his wages by holding out for 9 months.

Yes

Three loans makes sense if they’re all players capable of starting. If we’re loaning squad players then just sign a proper left back.

I think the hold up is with getting wages off our wage bill. Mulgrew was set to join Fleetwood (Twitter rumour) but that still hasn’t gone through.

Let’s have a bit of fun whilst we wait for a left back. ‘Premier League Club’ make a 5m offer for Dolan. Do you accept it?

Oh yeah, to be clear, I’d pick Nyambe. The team you posted is very attacking, I can see how if the game play is to attack you can pick JRC over Nyambe.

Tyrhys is about to get a serious eye opener if this is right, IMO. Let’s see how he reacts to being kicked.
