Is that why we’re rumoured to be interested in yet another loan for Semenyo at Bristol City?I would n’t believe what that person says, he’s reknowned fot talking b*llocks

Herbie Kane and Malik Wilks would do wonders for this team
The one place we probably don’t need more options currently is the wing. Yet we are being linked with some. Adelakun of Bristol being the latest one. If we are looking at wingers then maybe Sads is going. I do hope not though.

I'm a bit concerned if media reports are correct that we are looking at a Quote,, young prolific premiership youth striker, can't help thinking we've been here before, prolific playing U18/ U23 totally different to league level, surely we need the experience now to kick on, Sterling didn't work and Ennis for all his hard work is not gonna get the goals we need to move up table
How much would Ennis be worth in the transfer market currently?
I’m sorry Campsall, but wasn’t Marquis under contract? Didn’t stop us from letting him go, but at the same time we didn’t see fit to replace him. None of us would be discussing this right now, IF we’d done what we should have done and got someone lined up before letting him go.Players that are coming to the end of their contracts are there for the taking, if you make a realistic bid AND offer the right wages. It really is that simple. I know about as much as you as to who is or isn’t available, in January, but there are plenty of people better qualified, and have the resources, to come up with a list of potential, good quality, players.

I'm really not sure what people can't understand about transfers falling through for a multitude of reasons. It's as if some desperately want to believe the club is trying to be purposefully rubbish so just decided not to bother replacing Marquis.Sometimes fees can't be met, or contract terms. Sometimes a player just changes his mind on joining for whatever reason.Moore and Rovers tried to get signings in up front in the summer. It didn't work out, it happens. Teams as lofty as Barcelona, Arsenal, Everton and Spurs failed to secure key targets that they felt they needed in the summer, it isn't just little Donny Rovers.
Grant ward would’ve been a good signing for us, he’s had a bad injury which doesn’t mean he’s injury prone. The players that are out of contract in the summer we need to be offering contracts to now.
Who’s to say those contingency plans weren’t enacted, but didn’t succeed for whatever reason.?
