We can’t after today. Our loan window closes today too

Probably going to get slated here but I do not rate Lenihan at all. He is a poor defender as well - he's just not as bad as everyone else.

My team: Walton JRC Nyambe Tosin Downing Travis Johnson Armstrong Dack Rothwell Brereton Anyone know somewhere decent to get some beers in before the game that's close to the stadium?

The scenes would depend on whether it is Miles Anderson or Jake Cooper

NYAMBE IS A SAINT.

I thought I was the only one who didn't rate Grealish. All these talks of a big money transfer reminds me of how I felt when Berahino was being touted for big money. Don't see why! This could explain why I am neither a scout or a football coach but just my opinion. Anyway, be a tough game against Villa. Always been a bogey team of ours but we do have the quality to win the game!

I think although maybe he can’t cut it for us, we shouldn’t just get rid of him whilst he’s recovering. Have to think we’re a better club than that and I also don’t think Mowbray would do that. Shame for him though, he seemed to work incredibly hard over the summer. Can’t fault him for wanting to get better for the step up in division.

What’s this picture everyone is talking about? Sorry if it has been posted loads! also; what a tit.

Cheers. It’ll probably happen in January I would imagine!

What type of midfielder is this guy?

Missed all of this today! How close were we to signing Chapman then?

Pretty much agree with all of this. I hadn’t seen much of Rothwell either before this season and the way he looks and the quality he possesses makes me feel even better than when the permanent window shut. We’re young and hungry with quality throughout and we’re just a couple of players away from being even stronger. Chapman and Bauer to hopefully come in, in January and a RB to push Nyambe and we’re looking spot on!

Have to agree with people saying Chapman will either be here or Boro at 5pm today. No way will Tony be talking about Chapman if he was off elsewhere. Also, if we are in for him along with others and he’s allowed to leave - he’s not choosing anywhere else. He’s desperate to come back here!

Probably wouldn't class it as directly but David Jones ?

Not even going to respond to that Sun article (except for this).

http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/16608215.middlesbrough-boss-discusses-future-of-rovers-target-harry-chapman/?ref=mac Is it time?

I know, really strange. Didn't mention once what was up with Palmer either - I am sure I saw Rich Sharpe ignore the question a few times too. Still no actual news on the severity of Armstrongs injury either.

How do you know where we were shopping? Nobody has known our targets all summer until the last minute. Armstrong isn't Poundland and neither is Brereton. Kasey Palmer is not a 'poundland' loan - by all accounts we beat quite a few 'bigger' clubs to get him here. Davenport, Rodwell and Rothwell are all signings that have hardly cost us anything but have massive potential - I would say shrewd, not Poundland. Just admit it, you know as much as everyone else on here and that is NOTHING about the money we have in our transfer kitty. ALl you can go off is what people at the club say and that is there has always been money to spend this summer.

Caddis found his level then ?

Maybe because you can’t officially give someone £6m until the 1st January?

Should I be worried about the word ‘option’?

Bit harsh this. Could be dyslexic for all we know. Anyway, transfers? Cant see it being Chapman if he’s on the bench tonight.

Brereton must be imminent if Graham AND the Nutt are playing.
