Sorry been at work. .my ipad is a version 3 and it's ios 9.3.5 .. never had any issues in past I am actually on my Samsung at mo using Chrome and its fine

I am having problem on ipad using safari too .. just refuses to load up correctly. . Eventually when it does it just gets blank screens or part of posts .... this is about as close as I get

Saw Bradley Johnson in playoffs thought his legs had gone tbh ..him Downing and Evans midfield would give me nightmares

Thought he was going to Rangers ? Or have I got the wrong lad

No ... Just generalising the feeling on these boards because we missed out on Bauer ?

I suppose that's Mowbrays fault too

He's often spoken about players character , maybe this is one of the way he judges that , tell them they are not an auto pick , If they have a desire and the will to earn a place in the side they get his vote of approval if they are not up for the fight of getting in the team will they be up for a fight to get into play offs ? To avoid relegation ?

Wow ...couple of things that surprised me there 1) didn't know souness was boss for more games than dalglish and 2) Don Mackay who was vilified for a lot of his time at rovers as a pretty good win ratio

I can guarantee you this much , both Smallwood and Conway (neither of whom I particular rate) would cover a hell of a lot more ground than Downing . I have been banging the drum about wanting. Natural let footer in forward areas of the pitch for a while now because I think it's a player we desperately need , never thought it would be a 35 year old version of Jason Wilcox . At his age he just will not be able to get up and down the pitch so I fully expect him to be played in midfield And he will just stroll around picking the odd pass here and there very Danny murphy'esq ... We are not good enough to play with 10 and carry players

Fielding Hanley , some c/b we've never heard of Morrison and Gallagher would be my guess , with all the budget (whatever it may be ) spunk end on Gally a couple of fringe / u23's will leave that will free up a bit of wages for Downing at the end of window , probably deadline day just to keep us interested

Took the words out of my mouth ... The only player we have of "playing it out from the back" is the one who is universally thought of as past it and a weak link ... give me defenders who can defend please , if they can play a bit that's a bonus

£6m is far too much imo , about half that would be OK for me , certainly no more than 4 but I think the original link had us taking him on loan , which would be perfect as another poster said he is a similar player player Lenighan so maybe the recent links are as his replacement , which for me means we still need another C/b talking hypothetically , if we were to get £8m for Lenighan , took Hanley on loan Bidwell or Martin Olsson on a free and Got Jake Cooper for anything less than £6m , that would represent great business

Looks like he can strike them with either foot ...

I suppose as most contracts run to and from 30th June most free agents will be announcing moves next week , maybe we already have 1 or 2 in the bag

If we get Martin Ollsson back along with Hanley we could field a back 5 that all came through our youth setup

Morrison may not be a bad signing , assuming his wages are reasonable , with doubts over the futures of Smallwood And Rodwell and Corry Evans's injury record , Davenport and Travis may well need a old head around them to help manage games

Can I have 6 ?? Darlow Cooper Martin Olsson Brownhill (pushing realistic I suppose there) Zohore

Would we take Vydra or Wells from our 6 fingered cousins down the road ?

You know it's a shi... Quiet window when Maceo Rigters is a hot topic

I watched Bradley Johnson in the play off final , thought he lacked mobility to be honest decent footballer in his day but Harrison Reed he is not !! Maybe one too many injuries , Elphick and Adomoh are interesting especially on a free , and just for those with suspicious minds , pretty sure Adomoh played under TM at Boro ?? would cringe at the kind of wages they would want though , the Scottish lad sounds like he's on the right trajectory

I've said previously I would like a natural left footer in an advanced role , as Rothwell Armstrong And Conway tend to stop the momentum and cut back In and try an cross with their right foot , and Bell goes into a coma when He crosses the half way line not sure Downing would be high up on my list as options but ..... IF we are looking at Sam Gallagher up front, somebody who can deliver quality balls from wide is a must

Just seen a story on Twitter linking us (rangers and Sheff Wednesday ) to Stewart Downing

Adele fan ???

mmm..... Sell before buy doesn't sound good

If it would make you feel better I could re-work other people's thoughts and masquerade them as my own ??
