"DC confirms that he has put offers in for a couple of players, including a loan winger."
My guess would be Higgins and Turley plus the loan winger.

A brilliant, inquistive mind asked the Rovers twitter if we'd get anyone by the end of the week or the two players that DC wanted. The Rovers twitter replied Bristol Rovers @official_BRFC 15m harleyjakerich DC said there was a possibility of having someone in before the Coventry game, but nothing is definite.

From the sounds of it, permanent centre back (Turley), permanent striker and loanee winger. I reckon Higgins will sign if we miss out on Turley or the Winger (my attempt at reading between the lines)

He also said one is a striker, one an out and out winger on a 3 year deal and one a defender.

Pierce Mitchell is still training with the club but Higgins isn't anymore whilst DC contemplates offering him a deal.

With everyone knowing Higgins played for buggar all last season and he's desperate it means Rovers can offer him slightly more than buggar all. Shame if he doesn't get a deal as he's been trialling a while. Looks like him and Pierce Mitchell may have hung around for too long. If they don't get deals with Rovers there isn't long to get hooked up with a club before the season starts.

The squad will be looking a lot better once the striker, loan winger and defender (Turley?) have been added to it.
I find the three-month loan a bit random, but I'm guessing DC has been told that's the only type of deal we can get this winger on.

I only read one article about him when he first joined us. That was how I remember it. *from now in my posts I will put a disclaimer to say I read it on the internet so it may or may not be true.
