Could not get in Rotherham team which went down season before last. Not one I am envious off. Many of names mentioned on here as being good potential signings have not shone in first round of matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young Bolton RWB at Man City would be a great addition to our squad.

Bloxwich Owl Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Was quite impressed by what I saw of this guy in last seasons play-offs - quick & skilful.............. Derby County and Rotherham United are both keen on signing Scunthorpe United’s Duane Holmes, according to the Yorkshire Post. The 23-year-old is being tipped to leave the League One side before the end of the transfer window on Thursday. Derby County have been very busy this summer as their new manager, Frank Lampard, is building a squad he believes are capable of gaining promotion to the Premier League.

room0035 Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Are we planning sending any of the fringe players out on loan to get first team football, reducing the overheads and presumably we can have recall clauses if we get short on numbers. Or will the club continue its vow of silence for the rest of the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which isn't possible for some clubs considering the wages Wednesday pay out. Stupid policy, be better just to take half a wage cut and get these young lads valuable experience because if it all does go boobies up we might have to rely on them next season. Incompetency.

I know the completely insane policy we have and the reason we are in the mess we are financially. But I would have hope DC would have realised its not working so maybe we can change some of the policies before we end up in administration just for the sake of him saving face. The likes of Neilson, Penney, Ogrady would really benefit from going out on loan to get regular first team football the same way Clare and Thorniley came on leaps and bounds with their 6 months loan to League 1 and 2 respectively. IF Westwood stayed then we should look to get one of either Dawson or Wildsmith out on loan with Westwood first choice though that would be what any sane manager would do, if he is allowed to by those in charge.

bradowl Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Can't help thinking Boro have had Wolves pants down with £20m for Traore, very fast player but on many occasions I've seen him, little end product.
