Vale seem to be building a good squad. Picking up a lot of quality L2 players. Apart from Ripley I think quite average signings.

It’s a shame but that’s the drawback with loans, they are never yours and the better they do with you the more likely someone higher up takes a punt on them. So basically us and Argyle have done a straight swap, Wilson and Gibson. Gibson being younger may seem more attractive but Wilson is a League 1 champion. So I think that’s ok. Id have liked Gibson to stay but it was unlikely and there’s plenty similar out there. UTG! Not convinced that Gibson is ready for the Championship - Argyle will be stretched a lot this season and I wont be surprised to see Gibson injured and out for a long time by Christmas. I hoped we could have met the transfer fee if we could then it must have come down to Gibson deciding he was ready for Championship football, rather than spend another season at Rovers. Like you I'm not sure he is ready and another full(?) season in L1 might have been the better option. Particularly if Muff spend all season in a relegation fight and we're at the other end of the table. So his George Friend going to be Gibson's replacement or back up for his replacement?

Aaron Lewis, formally of Newport County. Watch this space. Mansfield fans said he is training with them today I guess it was a Westfieldgas rumour after all!

Expecting some decent loans again, Musialowski from Liverpool would be great, well thought of.
Was expecting JCH to have some clubs linked, and Azza only linked to Cov spuriosly.

I assumed that George Friend would have signed by now and that he’d at least played a small role in the Melksham friendly. Any particular reason for the hold up?

Charlton fan on twitter just tweeted that we along with them have made a £325k bid for Alfie May. Now a few weeks ago when there was a tweet by the club that everyone including myself thought it was a hint of a new signing Charlie who does the Rovers Vlog tweeted for a laugh that Wael had started following him. Anyway when I looked I am pretty sure that the only mutual link on IG was May and Marquis which would have been from their time at Doncaster. Anyway when I checked back around 20 minutes later May was following JB but I am pretty sure that he wasn't the first time I looked as like I said the only link was with Marquis. 🤔🤔🤔 Like I said previous, I am certain he wasn't following Joey previously.

When I seen him linked with Gills, I was thinking I'm surprised we're not in for him. 20+ goals 2 seasons in a row in L1 is not to be sniffed at.

Will be a bit of a coup. Not sure how we fit all the No10s into one team, but a nice problem to have!

Jamal Blackman signed for Burton Albion! That's a strange move, why swap a comfortable mid table side for, probably, a year long fight against relegation. Exeter look like they have a massive rebuilding job on their hands this summer, as they seem to be losing most of their better players.

I think IF we sign May, that would mean Collins will be off as that would be how we fund it?
Hope I'm wrong but if we can have both of them there will lots of goals next season.

Made some good additions Still an odd move, thought he could have gone to a bigger club.

That probably explains why there's such an exodus of players. Still thought Blackman would have found a bigger club
