Not a rumour ?

[Alan Southstand]

Until he signs, yes!

[Retdon1]

Being reported on twitter that the fee is 75k. He’s currently having a medical

That will be good news that we have another signing
Does anyone actually know how good he is

He was their top scorer last season, I think with 16 goals but not 100%

Only this morning, Liam Hoden tweeted the following:

Nothing imminently imminent at Rovers in terms of deals being completed but things can change quickly. Certainly there is progression on the hunt for further additions #drfc

???

[Filo]

What is imminently imminent?

[Alan Southstand]

And yet further confirmation:

Still not expecting confirmation of anything from Rovers today. As I said earlier, clearly things are progressing

To be fair LH news hasn’t been breaking for a while and he’s only let on that we’re signing someone a short while before we actually do. The BBC broke the Cole signing, not once did he mention him in the build up to that deal.

I’m taking what he says with a pinch of salt for now

3 month contract

I think he is being careful particularly after what the bbc did - LH tweeted something about “embargoes” just before Cole was announced..

[Alan Southstand]

He was their top scorer last season, I think with 16 goals but not 100%

In the league, 10 goals and 1 assist.

He was their top scorer last season.

[MachoMadness]

He's being careful with his words there. He says nothing confirmed today - the deal could still be done and the public announcement could be sorted tomorrow.

[steve@dcfd]

If we are negotiating then it will probably take while the summer

Just checked yeah, 10 in the League, 3 in the Leasing cup and 3 in the FA Cup

I know for certain that he knew early that morning that there was going to be an announcement of Cole that afternoon.
I'm also led to believe rovers asked for it not to be announced before, which lh abided by.

[BillyStubbsTears]

Good by LH to stick to that embargo. Very poor form by any journalist who didn't.

Yep - From what I saw on Twitter it looked like the BBC broke the embargo. Liam would have know throughout the process about Cole I'd imagine given the relationship he has with the club.

[dickos1]

I’m still expecting an announcement today

Deal is done

[MachoMadness]

1 goal every 181 minutes last season is what I read on Twitter, so it must be true.

[5 on Tour]

He looks like he will do well for us from the bits I’ve seen of him.

His signing, following on from Cole, will probably mean that Bingham will have played his last for us. This lad can play wide as well as through the middle from what I’ve read.

[Batleyred]

Sure i read last week all his goals last season came after November.

To be honest, if this one signs, I would be tempted to keep Bingham.  Many would agree he’s not going to be a choice for the starting 11 but could be a useful squad member for the bench, especially for injury/suspension cover.  Wouldn’t be breaking the bank either, I would think.?

[Alan Southstand]

Surely, we’ve got Watters for that, IDM?

[IDM]

Why not both.?  Folks have been saying all season that we have a thin and weak squad.. Sterling, Thomas, May and Daniels all departed - I don’t include Lawlor - so with potentially only 2 incomings we are down 2.  OK Bingham came in after Sterling got injured, but even so, keeping him isn’t increasing the squad.

He may not play much but that’s the point of a squad.?

I agree completely and think Bingham has a place within the squad. Depends how much the wage is and whether DM wants to spend it in midfield.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Exactly. I did think it was significant that DM said he would sit down with Bingham today. I trust whatever DM decides taking into account what Bingham wants to do if he's further down the pecking order. It won't have done him any harm playing in League One and getting a couple of goals.

[Donny Exile in York]

If we get this signing over the line which would be good business and as I previously said, shut a good few of us on here up.. then I cant see Bingham staying
