I don't see Styles as like for like player replacement for Rothwell. I rated Styles as player and he impressed me every time I've seen him. He was Barnsley's best player against us at Ewood Park. Given that last week it was reported we agreed a fee for him but the player wanted to stay at Barnsley to help them stay up. So you were close to getting your wish Yes I would have like a tackling midfielder to back up Travis with.

But nowhere did I say I didn't Styles did I tho?

Given we had 2 bids for players accepted but players either stayed at their current club or moved elsewhere. We got the squad we got till of the season. Let's focus on securing promotion

Found the post now. I said and I will quote "how much would he cost? and do we not need more tackling defensive midfielder?" So I didn't dismiss Styles as an option but suggested we cover for Travis. Which I think is sensible

Are you sure it wasn't O'Riley from MK Dons actually?

We spent 700k on forward players

I posted a story last week that we had bid accepted for him in January

You got a link to this?

what did I say? Given I was banned from this site and I suggested him on another Rovers site and twitter that we sign him as Replacement for Rothwell. Think I suggested Styles and Williams for Replacements from Rothwell

I'm posted the article last week in the forum. Do you have any information that Styles bid is not true? The Peterborough Chairman was open and honest with people and their fanbase something you seem to have a problem with. Considering that we have a bid accepted by Peterborough Confirmed by him that they accepted 3 bids for him why would it be less than 1.5 million price mentioned in the media? Considering that Birmingham and Bournemouth bids were 1.5 million pounds

Well if that's your attitude and reaction I will leave it there,

won't he be signing for the under 23's first. Plus will Mowbray be here next season if we don't get promote

one player I would target whether we went up or not would be Barnsley Midfielder Callum Styles. On the right back situation given that Nyambe is leaving and Zeefuik seems injury alot then do we need a new right back signing or is James Brown good enough quality if we don't go up? I don't know enough on him or seen enough of him to comment on that

Who knows what will happen with those clubs for next season regarding transfer embargo. But their financials are mess of those clubs. Surely their local media knows alot more about their local clubs then us. On Us, We were in embargo earlier in the summer before Venkys bought their training ground to make us make their 39 million losses threshold. Going forward, The Armstrong sale money will cover some of those losses maybe all but we should be able to spend some money even if we don't go up this summer. Was Rothwell an important player for us 18 months ago? If those players want to leave and move on at the end of the contract then thats their choice. We have just agreed a new long term contract for Kaminski so money is there for wages but we have made each player an improved contract offer as Mowbray has said but none of those want to sell. I said last week we had 5 meetings with Nyambe and his agent over the last week in January and first couple of weeks in February before they ended talks and won't engage with the club again. This is from a different social media Rovers related site. As someone posted on here maybe he wants to move on from Rovers and move to a new club or country like France. But I haven't seen any clubs linked with him so where and who is interested in him. Just hope his agent hasn't sold down the river there

Some people could say that turn around on people who will look to blame the club at every opportunity available We did made bids for Barnsley Midfielder Callum Styles for 1.5 million which bid was accepted by them but he wanted to stay at Barnsley to help them survived. I can respect that decision actually. We also had a bid accepted by Peterborough for Dembele for 1.5 million and we held talks with him but he went to Bournemouth. Can Rovers be blame for either of those situation?

I don't think either Swansea and Barnsley were crap at all but had managers who played a way to get the best out of that squad. Last season we should have got top 6 given how Mowbray was backed in terms of signings and the quality he signed. No-one but they played to their strengths but I feel they might hit the buffer zone shortly looking at their run in

If you saying that about myself then myself look at yourself who is similar at blaming the club for these 3 players not signing new contract here given that 2 of those in late 20's and will have one more move in them to get to PL and potential bigger pay day No its ain't a failure of the model at all. 3 players have decide to test the free agent market which is their right. We have been in talks for nearly 2 years over new contracts and we have failed to agree terms. Given that for last 2 years barely any club has been linked with any of the 3 of them so why is that?

I would suspect he would go into the under 23's first before we start to hopefully develop him for the first team maybe look at number of teams who are scouting him and reporting interested in him. Barely in mind he is 18 years old. Glad to see you in a positive mood on a lovely Sunday morning. Nope I don't. and who says we are going to fall down the table?

You could tell that just be listening commenting on a live match or even when captain Hampshire. Shame he was never name permanent Australia cracking programme to watch

Given that we now have 3 games in 7 days first team wise, Is this just going to be under 23 behind close game? I have posted what the agreed fee was reported by local media. Thats it. I will leave you with it whether he was a flop at Hertha Berlin or not.

Hasn't Mowbray already said he won't won't feature in the next 3 games anyway? The next under 23 game is Arsenal away on 14th February which I guess he will feature in

I was looking forward to seeing Zeefuik and whether he was going to good enough to sign permanently if we got promote. But now he pick up this injury its look unlikely he will feature much now before his loan deal end. I like the Barnsley right back/wing back Callum Brittain. He would be a target if he available at the right price

Yes. I think Parker and Bournemouth players are under massive pressure there to delivery. Not sure they have in them but time will show. Lets see if they can. Well that's your choice But soon as you do it for one player than other players' agents will use that against the club each time. Don't forget that Nyambe has the same player agency as Dack and Brereton have.
