Brittain

Yeah but in that scenario have to be confident another player can be sold for a significant fee next summer or we won't be able to spend next year. Like it or lump it FfP is here and if we do healthy business this summer and forget about selling Brererton this summer then going forward we would have to cash in on an asset to continue building going forward

Yeah posted that Saturday night he is a Turkish international aswell

We went as far as 22 for Lenihen and that was for 4 years. Davies is a better player than him and even if only for a season perhaps they are banking on Phillips or another of our young CB playing a major role next season. We don't know how far down the line we are with players like Brittain said his move was in the offing a couple of but certainly appears we have money and are targeting quality which is always going to be harder to bring in

Plus they change their manager with regularity and also in Turkey the signings are usually president led with the head coach having minimal say on who is signed.

The Brittain deal was a couple of weeks in the pipeline according to the player himself.The first link in the media was by Nixon 24 hours later he put pen to paper. Styles hasnt gone anywhere either has Bowler.The media don't know how far along we are with any deals. Nothing to suggest Styles is "set to sign" for Besiktas either

Ismael played Styles LWB I seen an article which I posted on here that Besiktas already had one lined up a Turkish international

What sources?Who is saying it?Someone legitimate?

The first half of the game the other day Dack looked anything but fit. Surely be madness to start him so early after 2 serious injuries and only one pre season game involvement. Bring him on if needed later in the game when the opposition legs are tired.He won't be starting at weekend anyway

In fairness Park was out of work and he had a relationship and history with Mowbray.Id be surprised if the new man hasnt received a few years

And that has absolutely nothing to do with the fact Barnsley are a selling club and clubs will know Styles is available. Armstrong alone we will have taken more money in than them over last 5 year

No idea but it will be more than a year you would expect as I doubt he would be leaving the job he has after 22 years without more security than a 1 year deal

Not really no.Why come out and say anything about it? Clubs know Styles is available, of course they do ,he isnt a league 1 player and Barnsley are a selling club. It's not personal,Rovers fan seems a sound fella etc but I just don't think has insight,he goes through the official channels at the club and they are not going to be telling him who or who we haven't bid for,expressed an interest in.Why would they if they don't want it out there?

It's 100% as the news is already out there when he writes about it.Nobody at the club is giving him anything. On this Style story, do you really believe that the club if we are in for him would say to Rich " yes we have bid Rich, £2.5 million but don't tell anyone just yet" Like iv said seems a sound fella but id challenge you to show me one exclusive, that hadn't been somewhere else beforehand?Even in January his understanding we had an interest in Markanday on loan few hours later confirmed by the club it's a permanent deal. The likes of Nixon and other nationals have contacts that are external agents,someone at the selling club. Brittain Rich was nowhere near and Morton again it was already reported it was a done deal before he gave him a mention

Sorry my bad Im on a packed train and slightly hungover mixing up the yesterday and Hartlepool.I realized as soon as id posted

The manager would have had an input over contracts here. You telling me it was on Waggotts recommendation that all the "men" in the dressing room with little or no resale value the likes of Bennett ,Evans, Mulgrew got new deals upon promotion from league one?It would have been Mowbray who pushed for them

This summer has a different feel about it . JDT isn't an old dinosaur like what has come before him.Brittain is a good start and we are obviously making bids for other players.Fry at Peterborough has confirmed we have made at least 1 other cash bid

That's how I saw it aswell

No wonder Bournemouth signed Rothwell clearly planning on the championship next season. Nixon reporting they are in for Van Der Berg on a loan from Liverpool and are ain't going to spending much. Certainties to go down unless they strengthen significantly

I'd agree with most of that but after the pre season he has had think Vale will get a start

Ismael managed him,he is an international for Hungary playing in their recent win v England and his quality is above league one level. Hopefully just paper talk that they are in for him

Nixon story in the sun is Morton will still be coming here and our offer for Davies was a loan paying £26k per week of his wages

They just sold a left back/LWB(not sure what system they play) to Rangers for £5 million. Probably being linked to them over here due to his links with Ismael. If it gets done be the signing I'd be most pleased about even if Bowler followed him through the door According to this they have already made a move for his replacement https://www.ibroxnews.com/2022/07/23/besiktas-confirm-sale-of-ridvan-yilmaz-to-rangers-via-stock-exchange/

Good let's hope it stays that way and we can get the deal done next week

Yeah it might be thrones overkill but will give it a go anyway, if only to see the lead being acted by a Rovers fan. Yeah prime dropped a 3 minute trailer today for rings looks good and they have spent an absolute fortune on it
