Once Hyam signs I would be happy to go with the C/B we have I really don’t see the need for another , if we are only making 3 signings I would say left back and for me I think we are a central midfielder light , an experienced player who can come on in the last 10-15mins of a tight game and see it out , IF BBD goes then it goes without saying we will probably need 2 forward players signed

Yes .. sky sports the other night the “desperate to leave” story … I still think that came from the club rather than player or agent

Yeah can imagine that from rossendale , but from where I am it’s straight M65-M6

Anybody travel from Blackburn to Warrington each day can advise on traffic conditions? working at another branch for a few weeks just wondering when is best/worse time to travel I have been offered. 8-5pm 8.30-5.30 pm or 9-6pm ..

Slightly off subject but what about the Malmo Left Back Knudsen ? Is he any good ? Did he play under JDT

Bowlers deal is dead mate trust me , embarrassed ourselves there to club and player

Alternative view … what if this latest story about BBD “determined to leave” is actually come from the club ? … I’ve just seen the SSN 10 second article on it and it’s virtually a for sale sign .. 1 year left £10m rejected its almost saying to other clubs come and get him

Gary Cahill on a short term deal ??

Just seen an article on SSN regarding Fulham vs Brentford and it showed their left back Joe Bryan scoring in playoff game couple seasons ago ,he seems to have disappeared hasn’t .. he would be a good loan signing at left back

Personally I would try for Armstrong back on loan and then boy Boy from Rotherham .. Ogbene ???

Minimum £15m then let the lad decide , the Leeds rumour won’t go away and maybe the lad wants to play PL and not go abroad either way we need to plan for his exit and get replacements .. yes plural .. lined up !

There is a certain journalist who has been saying we are and have always have been after 2 central defenders , my guess is VDB will arrive end of window but target 2 will come in first

VDB to be announced tomorrow And be introduced to fans during half time ? that was a thing clubs used to do , can’t remember last time I saw it at Ewood … (watch some smart arse come up with a player from last year 😂)

Very good 👍👍👍

That’s 25% of our goal tally .. come end of season that would be classed as prolific wouldn’t it

A C/B is a must , a left back would be nice and I still think we are a midfielder light Edun just does not do it for me , If BBD goes then obviously we need to replace him

Sorry I’m a an 80’s child 😂😂 tracksuit manager on the Amiga 500 kind of guy

Objection your Honour …. Chris Brown .. then Lowe 👍

I seem him as a Holding midfielder in the Pirlo/Tugay mould rather than the Makelele style

Alfie Mawson still without a club too , I know he was discussed on this boards weeks ago and a lot were of the opinion that he wasn’t the player he used to be but he might just provide the experienced cover at C/B we don’t have

Can we have some 7 year old kids in tears holding up homemade signs saying Please Venkys sign JPVH At the game Saturday …seem to remember it working at Old Trafford once 🤔

Thought Vale struggled to get involved today , a few nice touches but not much else I think there is more there than what was shown today , Hedges same can’t say he contributed much but with 15 mins to go i thought Gally and Diaz were struggling we needed fresh legs that when I would have brought on Dack and Markanday , felt we were hanging on towards then end , Dack has the ability to lift the crowd even if JDT doesn’t think he’s fit enough or fits into his style of play he cannot deny his impact on the team and fans

The Brentford model 😁

No .. it’s pronounced Smodic 😁😁

Won’t be Style and Bowler , one or the other or none imo .. 3 bids went in for Smodiczs they were rejected , then the enquiry for Bowler went in (Blackpool wanted 3m and rovers were happy with it) at some point between agreeing that figure and talking personal terms with Bowler , something has changed , somebody somewhere has had cold feet and then the sniffing round Styles has begun . I honestly don’t know who’s at fault here and I am in no way an ITK I am just getting bits from Blackpool end and putting it together with what’s in the open I’m just not that confident now we will land any of them
