BRISTOL ROVERS want Richie Towell, as boss Darrell Clarke weighs up making a contract offer. The League Two outfit have been scouting the Dundalk ace for months. The Dubliner, 24, is a free agent this winter and will only move cross-channel again — he was previously at Celtic and Hibs — for the right deal. Rovers are one of the biggest clubs in League Two and have the financial clout to up his wages. But Towell has helped the Lilywhites to back-to-back leagues and has Champions League ambitions next term. Last winter, Towell trained with both Cardiff City and Blackpool before deciding to sign a new contract at Dundalk. Meanwhile, St Pat’s are eyeing Bray midfielder Graham Kelly while Bohemians are after Shamrock Rovers’ Kieran Marty Waters and Drogheda United’s Mick Daly. www.thesun.ie/irishsol/homepage/sport/6714520/Rovers-to-offer-Rich-pickings.html

Obviously don't claim to know a thing about him, but very interesting if what is written is true; both in terms of us actually wanting him and the level of clubs who have been in for him before. What position does he play?

Towell looks just the player to mop up any chances around the box. Hopefully he can rub us up the right way.

I have a spare one under my bed. Might need a wash though.

I reckon whenever wrote this has just been given the task of trying to fit Bristol Rovers and Champions League up in the same story.

Looking at his record it wouldn't surprise me if the writer has mistaken us for the sheeds. 25 in 35 from midfield last season!

Lets hope it's not a load of old flannel.
