It's not extreme I have been keeping a close eye on his tweets this summer. Had Davenport as a buy before it happened. Tweeted about Armstrong signing before the telegraph,sky sports and ewoodnews on here. He didn't break the other signings but he didn't claim to either. Posters are blaming him for selling Dack when it wasn't even him who did the Dack and West Brom story. He wrote a story on Leicester being interested in Dack is that that hard to believe. Chaddy gets a lot of grief for quoting Nixon but Chaddy will be checking multiple news/gossip outlets for Rovers transfer news and will see what I see, usually Nixon is ahead of the pack when it comes to transfers at ewood. Do I take what he says with a pinch of salt?Most definitely, but he does get stuff right about Rovers

I don't know him personally do You? I can say 1 million percent that he has got a lot more right than wrong with rovers this summer. Does he talk a lot of crap?Yes most of that type of journalists do. Does he act like a bit of a wally on Twitter blocking people and calling them fuds. Yes But I find it weird that some people speak of him with such hatred when they have Probably never met the man.(Not talking about the post I initially responded too)

Firstly it wasn't a Nixon story about Dack going to West Brom.It was another sun journalist who did the story yesterday. Secondly kamy and JB have said they heard from a gpod source that we rejected a 15 million bid for Dack.Nixon has been saying all day Rovers won't deal. He wrote a story in the sun that we had Rejected the Dack bid?Not sure how that's selling our players?

It has'nt been announced.Doubtful it's going to happen but just because it hasn't been announced before 5pm doesn't mean we haven't signed anyone

Which was never going to happen. The window has gone above exceeding expectations in my opinion. Would i have thought we would have turned down a 15 mill bid for any of our player's since Venkys took over?No. The club did exactly what you wanted said "Not for sale" Maybe give a bit of credit?I usually enjoy your posts but lately all you seem to do is slag the club off.We will be amongst the highest net spenders in the league and have kept hold of all our star men.Plenty to slag the club off over since the Venkys took over but this summer has been excellent.

The telegraph were saying do we have time to sneak a couple of deals in before 5pm 10 minutes ago surely they wouldn't be saying that if we weren't talking to anyone.

Lucky we haven't entertained selling Dack. To turn down a deal that could have reached 15 million(if true) is quite the statement by the club. Along with signing some exciting up and coming British talent it's been an excellent window.Surely you agree?

We can have up to 8 loans only 5 can be included in the match day squad. He will have been signed for the development squad initially

He has a long term injury doesn't he?Doubt we will get him off our books today

A correspondent from one of the papers who covers west Brom has tweeted likely np ins or outs . If true we rejected a 15million bid for Dack then further proof that the club is starting to be looked after properly. Although maybe short in one or 2 areas going off what Mogga said that's down to clubs not willing to deal.Been a fantastic window in my opinion

The telegraph are quoting west Brom a bid was made but flatly turned down. Nixon said yesterday that we wouldn't be selling he just reported the bid.

Latest from the telegraph still keeping an eye on the situation at boro and a couple of other deals being worked on

Ryan Leonard close to joining Millwall, will be Savilles replacement and the player that's having the medical at Millwall...not Chapman.

Nixon tweeting that Villa have joined the race for Puncheoun now, we need Boro to get their buisness done if Chapman going to be let out

On Twitter nothing apart from putting a pic of a lion and cub on his profile.

If Chapman leaves boro then only one place he is going...here. TM wouldn't have been talking up a deal as late as this morning if Chapman was off elsewhere

It was named not sure if he is in it only know it was named as an article on rovers site,Brereton named in it

Caddis has been paid off. Fisher has signed a new deal. On Chapman England under 20s named their squad today that could have something to do with his pic on Twitter

The telegraph saying incomings and outgoings likely today. Sharpe saying could be 2 in

Izzy Brown joined Leeds season long loan. Walters left Burnley joined Ipswich

Where ever he goes he will expect to be first choice. He would just stay at villa if he was happy picking up a wage and not playing every week.Not a bad player but not better than Lenihan or Mulgrew so don't see him coming here hoping for 1 of them to get injured so he can get a game

https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2018/august/tony-thrilled-with-summer-backing/#.W4cNOfZCDNM.link He will be here permanent come January Mowbray talks about it being a long term deal

Burnley will be in the championship next season. I hope though that Mowbray will put a stop to selling our better players to championship rivals.If the likes of Dack or whoever want a move or the club needs the money then I hope we will be selling to the premier league and not to championship rivals unless it's a footballing decision by the manager and he feels he can get someone better in the market.

On the risk in the Brereton deal do players even have to be that good to see their value increase? Like I see on deadline day Boro put in a 13 million double bid for Saville and Wallace 12 months earlier Millwall had got them both for a million quid. Waghorn had been knocking about for ages one good season at ipswich and now he's worth 5 or 6 million. Brereton would have to be really really bad for us not to recoup at least half of what we paid if things go sideways and it doesn't work out. We got two highly rated England strikers for under 10 million and it will only get that high if they activate clauses by being a success.Its cracking buisness by Mowbray and the club.12 months ago if you looked at our squad, hardly any talent and no value. Even if we are forced to sell one or two down the line potentially it could put a big dent in our debt level. I don't care what anyone says the only way Venkys will leave imo is if the debt level comes way way down and nobody will buy us the way it is at the minute That's not me hoping we will sell our best players but being realistic If we don't go up this season and Dack plays anywhere near the level he did last season then I think we all have to accept he will be bought buy a premier league team and as sickening as it is for me to say it he would deserve to be playing at that level. But obviously i would expect a healthy portion of the transfer fee going back into the playing squad.

Good preview. Ballache that the game is away this weekend then 13 long days till our next fix. If Dack and Armstrong are back we should go there to win.Its going to be a test if we go into the game as we where against Brentford.Brereton won't have the match sharpness for this one you would expect, maybe see him from the bench. Hope Evans has shaken off whatever knock he took last weekend. 1-1
