Signed for Northampton on loan till the rest of the season, from the video he looks like a decent player. Connor Ripley has signed on loan for Bury. Hard to believe where Bury are in the table with the recruitment they have been doing.

Hard to believe where Bury are in the table with the recruitment they have been doing. Hildeberto was a bit of a cult hero at Forest, will be interesting to see how he gets on. Ripley was outstanding last season and kept the most clean sheets in League One - 18. I would've loved him here. Adam Phillips has also signed for Cambridge United on loan for the rest of the season. Another good player who would've done a job for us.

Ollie says he wants to get rid of players at QPR - I wonder if he would consider moving David Wheeler on already? He's only started 5 times, came off the bench 4 times and been in the squad 9 times without featuring. Worth enquiring about a loan deal to get him some League One experience and playing time? It would be good to offer a loan deal as he can play on the left and right and would be a good replacement for Bodin if he was to leave. I am suprised to see that Ryan Manning hasn't featured for QPR since November, maybe worth bringing him in on loan?

Manning, although I've not seen a lot of him, looks promising. There are others I would prefer over him, but if we exhaust all other options he would be a decent option.

Ben Pringle has only featured in two match day squads for Preston this season and is yet to make an appearance. I reckon he would improve us and do a good job if available. He's previously got 5 goals and 13 assists from 45 appearances at League One level. Oldham Athletic are looking to bring in Preston North End midfielder Ben Pringle, according to journalist Alan Nixon. the72.co.uk/95664/oldham-chasing-preston-north-end-midfielder/

Steven Pienaar's contract with South African side Bidvest Wits ended yesterday. At the age of 35 could he be a Wally Walters-esque signing for us if interested?

Chelsea and England U20 striker Ike Ugbo has joined MK Dons on loan until the end of the season. He scored 23 goals in 35 games for the Chelsea youth teams last season. Would've done a job for us.

I don’t know why I put myself through it every transfer window because being a rovers fan is like waiting for Christmas Day and looking on twitter etc is like looking under the tree to see nothing and watch everyone else open presents but you have shocking parents that have said there’s no money to buy any and tell you any old lie to divert the situation.

I don't know how realistic it would be or even whether they would be interested/affordable, but I wouldn't mind us scouting and enquiring about Giorgi Kharaishvili and Albion Ademi.
Kharaishvili is a 21-year-old Georgia U21 international who has scored 30 goals in 61 appearances for Saburtalo in his home country and can play in any attacking midfielder role either wide or centrally. He has also made 2 brief sub appearances for the full Georgia national team. Looks an excellent prospect.
Ademi is an 18-year-old Finland U19 winger who looks a decent prospect. He can play either side and scored 4 goals and created 3 assists from 13 starts and 9 sub apps in the latest season in the top flight of Finland. He was previously linked with Charlton Athletic.

Scunthorpe are reportedly interested in signing promising Limerick winger Chiedozie Ogbene. I was going to mention him a while back, but presumed he was destined for bigger and better things having been on trial at Chelsea and Aston Villa. He has scored 11 goals in 41 League of Ireland games in spells at both Limerick and Cork City. www.iron-bru.co.uk/iron-expected-to-bid-for-limerick-striker-chiedozie-ogbene/

20-year-old left winger Arnaut Groeneveld has scored 7 goals and created 10 assists from 15 appearances this season in all competitions for 2nd tier side NEC Nijmegen. He looks an outstanding player, but whether he would be interested in a move to League One and England is another matter. Probably unrealistic, but worth an enquiry.
21-year-old winger or attacking midfielder Djibril Dianessy has also impressed at the same level scoring 9 goals and creating 7 assists from 21 appearances in all competitions. He is out of contract at the end of the season.
Edit: Just realised Fortuna and NEC occupy the top 2 positions in the league, so highly unlikely!!!

Only 17-years-old, but Montenegro U19 international Nikola Krstovic has already scored 15 goals in 39 games for his side FK Zeta Golubovac in Montenegro.

John Bostock is out of contract in the summer. Only 25-years-old, thought he was older than that.

As DC is promising activity in the January transfer window, I feel like this thread might be relevant again. Anyone got any suggestions? If we're looking to strengthen in central midfield we could do a lot worse than getting Middlesbrough's 22-year-old Lewis Wing on loan if available. He joined them in the summer from Northern League side Shildon after scoring 37 goals for them during 16/17. So far this season he has scored 5 goals and created 4 assists from 9 appearances for the Boro U23's in Premier League 2 and he also got an assist in the EFL Trophy game against Blackpool. Signed on loan for Yeovil. Be interesting to see how he gets on.

Marcus Barnes, 21-year-old, forward, Southampton. Has scored 4 goals and created 3 assists from 12 appearances in the U23 league this season and he has also made a couple of appearances in the EFL Trophy. Can play centrally or in a wide role. Also signed on loan at Yeovil. Again, it will be interesting to see how he gets on.

John Bostock is out of contract in the summer. Only 25-years-old, thought he was older than that. You would of thought so. But he came through the Crystal Palace academy the same time as Victor Moses and Wilfried Zaha who are of similar age. Spurs signed him when he was 16, and his career just stalled, fair play to him for moving abroad and trying his hand overseas. I think he'll easily get a Championship club.

I agree, he'll probably get a Championship club next, he was linked with Birmingham when Redknapp was there. He was the Ligue 2 Player of the Season last year and previous to that the Belgian Second Division Player of the Season.

17-year-old winger Tamás Kiss could be one to scout and keep an eye on. The Hungary U17 player has 3 goals in 8 appearances for Haladás in the Hungarian top flight.
