Transfer rumours !

If we had a striker who could finish a chance since March that might be different. Ameobi was hit and miss against Forest but still created 2 opportunities that should have been finished. 

Mavies was similar to Chungy in as much as, creators need legs around them otherwise their good work is wasted.

Ameobi needs to step his game up. Not gonna get a bigger move on last seasons performances

I may be behind the times here but is Ameobi definitely going to be here next season?

Yes

Really boggers? I've looked on the BWFC website, Beeb and Sky and I can't find any mention of him signing a new deal. Has anyone else heard anything definite?

Signed a 2 year deal which is yet to be officially announced

I've read some gossip that he's received better offers from other clubs than what we've offered him - but that could be complete twaddle for all I know.

Boggars might be in the know but until the club announces it nobody can say for certain.

Thanks sluffy.

Hope we have scouts watching this World Cup, even if it's only for players on loan; would like to see us scout abit further than league one and championship players. Been hearing good things about Chiori Johnson from an Arsenal fan, might be closer to the first team than many think.

Hello and welcome Sam.

Fingers crossed that we have and that your mate is right about Chiori.

Who do you think is going to win the World Cup?

We do need a pacy left back, but I think the key signing of the summer will be a big striker preferably someone who is younger, fitter and taller than Anichebe. We know how Parky is going to set up so if that's the way it has to be we will need a top notch target man - and they aren't easy to come by.
Not sure if any of the WC strikers would be within our grasp though.

It wouldn't hurt trying to get players like Isaac Kiese Thelin (target man, good record, young, available on loan), Jan Bednarek, didn't get much of a looking with Southampton last year (would add some legs to our CD, was a weakness last year, would probably be available on loan). There are 100s of great players out there, which would love to use us as a spring board for the Premiership. We just seem to be going for Has-Beens and Never-Weres; there has to be better options.

I’m sure we’ll be looking at the loan market again later in the window, bit early for that at the moment - particularly as we won’t be able to pay any fees for a loan.

Don’t disagree about showing as much ambition as possible, but we are fishing in a pond reflective of our budget (league one level), International strikers may just be out of our league this year.

I'm guessing we'll never see him in the first team.

Looks like his trial with Blackburn didn't go as well as he'd hoped. Still he'll feel at home with the other Rover rejects.

Tweet from Nixon -

MILLWALL. Looking at a loan deal for Ben Amos at Bolton ... on big salary ... so will have to pitch in a fair amount ... bit in paper

But fails to name him.

Bolton. Talking to a footballer. May be black. Or white. In his 30's, but maybe 20's. Left footed, but may be right footed. Midfielder, possibly right back.

See, anyone can do it.

Yeah too generic a tease that one.

Doubt any of the 3 kids we have signed will make it t first team unless we get relegated.
