  1. I don't need to understand finance to know your full of rubbish. From the days of your bookie telling you we were selling one of our starlets(Raya before he became a regular)to West Ham for 4 million, to Your contacts hearing Venkys are selling up,you hearing that Rhodes very close to joining Bolton then Wigan,every window coming on here with your doom and financial expertise informing us all that a fire sale will happen only for it to never happen.I can go on or is that enough of me repeating your knowledge that never ever happens? We will not make a big sale this window and savings of 10-20 million won't be saved.How much you want to bet?
  2. That still isn't 10-20 million and like you say Ayala and Kaminski have been brought in a 3 year deal for Ayala and 2+1 years for Kaminski.We will bring in at least 2 other players so it will be nowhere near 10 million never mind 20
  3. You say this every window about a "big" departure. What happened with that 10-20 million we desperately need to find by slashing the wage bill and selling players? You sold Rhodes more times than Nixon did
  4. Compared to last season Buckley is demanding the ball much more was evident in the Leicester friendly and in both the Newcastle and Wycombe where he visibily demanded the ball of a senior player. As the season progresses see him playing a big part
  5. Cheap squad fillers ain't going to get us promotion though JH. You want money spent on replacements for the likes of Samuel, Hart and Smallwood players who contributed next to nothing last year. The budget is small surely any funds should be used to improve the areas we lack in the first 11, a left back should be priority followed by sub keeper and then midfield if finances allow. If we had the money to bring in quality then I may agree with you but cheap squad fillers are not going to proprel us to promotion they would only serve to add to the wage bill and block our promising young player And if all you care about is promotion why are you bothered if we loan players rather than sign them permanently?All you do is have a go at the club or manager,never come across someone who moans as much
  6. West Brom won't be spending money on Armstrong they ain't spending much more.Bringing in Niang from Rennes as a front player
  7. Created 5 chances in his 22 minutes on the field according to some stat I seen on twitter. He looks quality on the ball but still feeling his way in.I agree with oldgregg he is going to be a big player for us
  8. So you think the loss of Downing ,Tosin and Walton will make us relegation candidates if we lose any through injury? The rest of the departures hardly played. Rankin Costello seems to have taken to championship football, Buckley improving with every game, Improvement with Brereton, the emergence of Dolan.Dack, Evans and Gallagher to to come back from injury. I agree we are a few short of a sustained promotion challenge but the squad as it is will finish in the top half
  9. I agree it's not good enough but the talk of two centre backs was on the provision we lost Williams,he is still here and ok cover at centre back. We need a first team lb and a competent number 2 goalkeeper
  10. Buckley's pass yesterday for the goal was just class.If we are chasing the game like at Bournemouth I hope the manager will bring him on rather than Evans still can't quite understand the substitution. Armstrong is looking dangerous, 25/1 before season started to be championship top scorer. Hopefully no prem team comes in with a bid before deadline day
  11. Even if they don't manage to sell Brewster they will end up losing him to a Prem team ,he has interest, Sheffield United would buy or loan him and he has already shown he can do it at Championship level
  12. I agree on the Lb and back up Goalkeeper being priority but I don't think the manager does after reading his comments which is fairly worrying
  13. The other day we were close to a left back he said now no need for a left back we have other areas that need improving and bugger all money.Plus didn't we bid 200k for Pears?All very odd Only a theory but perhaps Mowbray is willing to sell Nyambe to use some of the fee to bring in a couple as although Costello had a good game very odd Nyambe was dropped
  14. Going off Mowbray's comments we must have missed out on the left back he was on about.Cant go rest of season with bell as left back.Even if just a loan he needs replacing
  15. Great stuff, Brereton played his part in that goal. Preston fans will be sick
  16. The goalkeeper is good with his feet and starting moves.In my opinion pre season and the 3 competitive matches we have played we are still playing a passing game but moving the ball much quicker and forward more often rather than all the sideways passing we did last season
  17. In your opinion are we still going to have a fire sale to cut 10-20 million off the wage bill?
  18. Was Dolan not signed instead of Wright-Phillips
  19. He hasn't played a competitive match since January.He won't be starting today
  20. Who is it?When will it be announced?
  21. We are interested in Manning according to the telegraph https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/18731059.rovers-interest-ryan-manning-watford-swoop-garner/
  22. We shouldnt be loaning a young player from a league rival so he can gain experience. I doubt he is one we are looking at going off Mowbray's comments regarding our potential new left back
  23. Waggot deep in negotiations with Ryan Manning
  24. Bournemouth are probably holding off till toward the end of the window when a team might panic and pay a bit more for him, reportedly a few teams interested.No doubt he will leave before the window closes
  25. Sky are reporting that Arsenal and Brentford are still talking about Raya.Brentford are open to selling him to Arsenal but only on the condition that Arsenal loan him back for the season 'Arsenal target Raya but Brentford demand loan back' https://www.skysports.com/share/12074492
