Seen this quite a lot and I’m very happy with this signing...GC is building a good foundation so far and we just need to buy some creative players and a Fox in the box and we’ll be doing well in this division

If the story about Man City interest is true then he will walk into the Rovers first team

If the story about Man City interest is true then he will walk into the Rovers first team Not necessarily, how many under 23 player's do Man city have on there books, that never make it as a professional?? Didn't we have one on loan a few seasons ago? Sounds promising though.

This is Pep's Man City that we are talking about , if they wanted him for their Under 23 team then he is very likely one hell of a talent

This is a Man City which is a financial powerhouse phenomenon, so GC must have assured him of regular first team football for him to turn down the short term of u23 football.

Gillingham linked with a move for Jack Payne. Will be disappointed if we miss out on him especially to bloody Gillingham again.

I think we lost our faculties years ago so nothing to offer there then

I was told by source within the club that gc has met with Leon Clarke and offered him a deal. He’s going to be weighing up his options apparently next couple of weeks. A career average of a goal every 3.3 games not too bad I’d imagine he sets a few up too he’s a big lad, him and JCH up front would certainly scare most defences.

Was it Bradford where Payne was on loan last season? GC said after a game against him that he knew him from somewhere else and talked up what a player he was - be amazed if GC didn't at least try and get him bearing in mind he's a free agent. I'd be happy with him or Mayor for some much needed flair if he's not already gone somewhere.

Yes you are correct it was Bradford and looks a good player, Mayor went for talks with Ipswich so guess he will go there.

3 hours and 25 minutes to get someone signed or this thread has been awfully misleading.

Even more so when potential good signings start getting signed up by rivals. Hopefully we'll have some positive activity this week before the Ireland trip - to be sure!

Hopefully Leon Clarke decent winger, scales from UCD and jack Payne, and a keeper, going to take some time that list 😁 we ve got the luck of the Irish

Hahahaha, 16k a week Leon Clarke If he's in his 30's and well past his prime he won't be expecting to stay on the same wages as his career comes to end and he drops down the divisions. im not too keen on him being signed anyway.

Had a poor season last year but the year before scored 20 goals in the Championship, if he was 3 years younger he'd be going for 10m. He'll go to a low end Championship club at a minimum. Some people really let their imaginations take them away with rumours like this
