  1. Then we can't afford Eustace top targets from the list. I don't think Kargbo has anything to do with Eustace, probably made tentative enquiries for the likes of Schlupp and Wallace, found out the costs and club have gone for a player probably recommended by someone Gestede knows like the young lad we signed in the summer I would have more faith if this Kargbo came from nowhere but our interest has been known since the summer. He will be on small wages his fee most likely under a £1 million but nobody else seemingly trying to sign him? The team and management deserve a known player someone to come in who will instantly improve the team and instantly improve moral and raise everyone's efforts in training etc. The players will be like us never heard of Kargbo and be on YouTube looking at him
  2. Wonder what we have seen in Kargbo that other clubs have missed. Eustace must be fuming behind the scenes he has repeatedly mentioned "experience " and "names" and players like Schlupp, Wallace, Bamford,Asante being mentioned. He wouldn't have kept mentioning "names " etc if he wasn't under the impression we had the budget for it Hope it works out for Kargbo but it's not a signing a promotion chasing team is making unless alongside others and he is given time to bed in
  3. Latth scored 14 in 31 there and was in seria b with not a great record before thst and has gone on to be excellent here. Granted boro when they signed him brought others in with him so was a gamble they could take. If spending 3.3 million on a single player then I'm sure Eustace would want it spending on a player more proven We won't spend that on a player anyway. It will be Kargbo for under £1 million and 1 or 2 loans
  4. Yeah and taken us nearly all window to get a player the manager hasnt picked A player nobody else seems to want given we have had free reign to sign him Utter rubbish waiting weeks for signings only for us to plump for a cheap gamble. Guess the championship experience box was ticked with the signing of Forshaw

  6. I seen someone mention the same on fb I don't see how Newcastle let him out though unless they are bringing a player in which from what Howe was saying was unlikely
  7. Travers due for a medical at Boro according to O'Rourke If true they won't be coming for Pears
  8. Loads of players have more pace than Wallace loads of younger players there aswell The way I look at it is this Kargbo's stats at a lower level than championship imo are not impressive. Our interest has been in the media since summer, he is available for a low fee.Where is the other interest?Why does it seem we have free reign to get him? If Wallace was available for transfer tomorrow we would have competition and he would get in our side immediately. Pointless talking about it anyway as Mowbray will play him and he will stay at west brom. And we will sign Kargbo and the manager will prefer Hedges or others and Kargbo will be seen off the bench Eustace said he wanted 2 or 3 brought in and names...he won't be referring to Kargbo
  9. I'm unconcerned about West Brom fans opinions he is competing for a place with better players than we have Fellows and Mikey Johnstone(who hasn't even started for them that much)to name 2 they would walk into our 11 as would Wallace Be honest how much have you seen of Kargbo? Who do you honestly believe Eustace would want out of the 2?
  10. Wallace would be a better bet of getting us into the top 6 this season.End of Wallace is a top player at this level amd chalk n cheese if comparing him to say Hedges.Him or Karbgo there isn't a choice to make
  11. Kargo if desired is a signing that should be made if you are bringing better quality in alongside him and give him a chance to bed in ,no pressure on him if it fails and it turns out he isn't up to it at this level then not the end of world As it stands going off the speculation in the media and lack of links with other players it's looking like he is going to be our main and most expensive signing of the window. Its disgraceful
  12. Agreed.Kargbo won't be what the manager wants An unknown body through the door and he be talked up by Gestede in his end of window interview Some of the stuff I'm reading on fb etc " be a class signing " going off a YouTube clips so some will buy that crap...that we have invested in an exciting talent
  13. Wallace hasn't even turned 31 yet and if he has it was recently. Much more to his game than being able to run fast Wallace found himself out of the team at West Brom but he like I said back in the team at the weekend was captain and scored Wallace is a top championship performer, Kargbo doesn't have great stats in seria b and I don't care about resale value it doesn't get reinvested.I want to make the playoffs this season For me and imo for Eustace then there wouldn't be a decision to make it would be Wallace all day long
  14. No way would Jed Wallace be cheaper It might be a similar fee if west brom wanted him away but Wallace will be on much more money. 100% I'd be signing Wallace if given the choice. Wallace won't be leaving now,Mowbray brought him back into the team and he was captain at the weekend
  15. Does Eustace actually want this player? Or is it a case of Gestede and Waggott going with this player as he will be cheap? I don't think this is the type of signing we should be making in this window,domestic players should be targeted. If this isn't a player Eustace has called for its likely this fella will be used from the bench with Eustace continuing with people he trusts Hedges etc
  16. I think 3 will be brought in ,and they will leave Hilton out of the 25 man squad It won't be the experience and recognised quality in this division that Eustace wanted but I do think we will bring 3 in especially if Kargbo has been chosen for left wing as he will be permanent leaving us 2 loan spots making up the 5 that can be part of the match day squad
  17. Preston willing to pay more towards O'Briens wage than us
  18. No matches are broadcast on Rovers tv for UK residents anymore since this new sky deal But 3pm kick offs on a Saturday where never available on Rovers tv for uk subscribers anyway Agreed the rovers site should be a bit clearer for supporters who aren't aware of that though
  19. Are you in the UK? It's audio only for uk
  20. Boro have completed the Whittaker signing
  21. They signed Ryan Giles yesterday aswell Rumours they will sell Latth but at least they are getting players In beforehand and will sign a striker if he does go Wish we had Gibson
  22. No way was Brereton a Mowbray signing imo ,he might have convinced venkys to spend a bit but I don't believe it was Mowbray that chose and pushed for Brereton to come in.Im going off how Mowbray spoke of his signing at the time and how he used Brereton in his first couple of seasons
  23. In fairness the concerns can only be addressed by players being signed no matter what Waggott said in that statement
  24. Who is going to take Sigurdsson when he is injured. He will be here till his contract ends
  25. Liverpool wouldn't be happy If we loaned Danns and then loaned Bamford considering we play 1 up front
