New Head Of Player Recruitment - Gus Williams
islander200 replied to slowmo's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
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 -
Transfer Window - COMPLETE. Where’s Gregg?
islander200 replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
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 -
New Head Of Player Recruitment - Gus Williams

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 -
Transfer Window - COMPLETE. Where’s Gregg?
islander200 replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
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? -

islander200 replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
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 -

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 -
Jon Dahl Tomasson - no longer Sweden coach
islander200 replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
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 -

islander200 replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
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

Not that it makes it any better but an awful lot of Championship teams are in the same boat. QPR next week have they done much?Think 2 signings they have made and one was signed only yesterday, they have lost players aswell. Boro...do they have a striker/goalscorer?They brought Balagoun and Connolly in on loan in January,the 2 weren't a success but Boro are very short in attacking areas. -

Are Spurs even open to letting Parrot leave on a permanent? I read this week that Spurs plan was for him to head out on loan and to whichever club they want him playing as a 9.It was said that at Mk Dons he played more withdrawn with Twine often filling the space ahead of him -

He confirmed they had bids for Styles he didn't mention from what club though -

islander200 replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Yeah 1 midfielder who is somewhat proven.And I also said that only one IF the coaching team thought Garrett and Wharton were up to it.Obviously If they ain't then 2 would most definitely be needed. If Morton comes in on loan then we have Travis, Buckley, Morton, Garrett and Wharton not enough senior minutes in that 5. JDT has spoken about the championship minutes we have lost and I believe a permanent signing will be made to take Rothwells place.If we only bring Morton in then I think that would be ludicrous -

Well no because Glen had it from the Barnsley side.Its not like he has never been on the money before is it? Plus nobody including Glen has said Styles had signed.He fits the profile of the sort of player we would be in for -
