2025 Summer Transfer Thread. π
davulsukur replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
The only positive about the Forshaw signing is that he adds experience. However, Tronstad and Travis have plenty of experience and they are basically captain and vice captain, so there is enough between them to help younger players. Clubs that sign Squad fillers aren't ever going to achieve anything. At best, they'll stand still. A much better plan would have been getting Tronstad and Travis onto new contracts 6 months ago, selling Buckley, signing 2 new players (probably from abroad), one with a reasonable amount of experience and the other a bit younger, who can challenge and develop. You've then got the likes of Montgomery also involved and pushing the rest/getting minutes. As it stands, Travis, Tronstad and Forshaw all walk for nothing in 12 months and we need to spend a lot money on a huge problem that could have been avoided well in advance. -

"He's just a back up" "He's just a squad player" "He's cheap" "He won't be playing much" A signing that shows nothing but a real lack of ambition or forward planning and just further evidence of cost cutting. -

Forshaw for another year. As expected but an underwhelming addition (or whatever we're calling it). A serious lack of ambition runs through this club. -

100% that's what's happening. Both Sagnan and Antman have been linked but in both cases it's come to light shortly after that their valuation is Β£4m+, which is way beyond anything we'd be spending, meaning we were never genuinely looking to sign them. -

Another one to file in the bin. If he's worth Β£5m+, then I'm not sure why he's even being offered to us in the first place. -
I thought he'd had a contract offer on the table for months? Mental

And definitely missing when a cross comes in -
Is this like a post-season tournament or a pre-season tournament? I noticed that Chelsea subbed on Liam Delap the other night, who they obviously only signed shortly before.

Considering the club are always crying poverty, it is a bit strange we haven't tried to scrape some money out of this situation either now or in the future. I doubt any league 2 team would have paid any transfers fees, so your idea seems like a no brainer almost. Unless we've gone all noble and "done the right thing by the player", which is at odds with how the club operate on day to day basis. -
They'd already spent Β£30m, I'm guessing they expected more than a 21st place finish. (Disclaimer, I don't know the full in and outside of their business)

A quick Google suggests its currently Finley Burn, whi moved from Southend to City for Β£250k as the most expensive as it stands. -

Are all these Pasha out banners the work of the coalition? or just some guys doing their thing? -
Selles the guy that took Hull to the brink of relegation?

Some people on X, @glen9mullan included, getting damaged shirts. Not a good start. -

Assuming none of Trav, Tronstad, Brittain or Hyam leave, I'll bet none of our summer signings start the season opener. -
The owners & senior management at Rovers (Waggott included) have done a very good job of pushing the narrative that there are no alternatives out there for a change in ownership at Rovers, that we should be grateful even, of their continued ownership. They've got a good amount of the fanbase believing that we are maxed out in every respect, we push the boundaries as far as we can within the limits of the regulations. I've even had comments from Dingles on X along the lines of "WiThOuT VeNkY's YoU's CoLlApSe" and that "No one would ever buy us" The reality, as demonstrated across all the leagues in English football is that there are willing parties out there, ready to take over football clubs and do so with real, genuine ambition with ideas and plans in place to drive that ambition. The only reason it won't happen here is because of whatever bizarre reason Venky's have for refusing to let us go. We're going to be left behind sooner rather than later, and the longer they keep us in their death grip, the further we will fall.

Some random X account reckoned that Weimann to Derby was all but done. Didn't bother adding it to here because it was just a random account that's probably trying to grab a summer 25 ITK badge but it wouldn't surprise me. -
I don't even know what this tournament is? π Also, it's on DAZN sports, which means I can't watch it anyway.
