Not sure what the club have done this time, havent our fans just jumped on the Bristol Post article that has just been put out. Nothing to see here really. If we have had an offer accepted, a medical is fairly standard. Club can announce it whenever . Any chance we could refrain from common sense talk, it's much more entertaining reading people go into meltdown and talking nonsense.

Can I be a bit of a party pooper here, regarding CT. He did a job for us in getting over the line in LG2. Went back to the Championship, where he was mainly used as bench warmer. He hasn't been tested week in week out in LG1. Evans did well in LG2. In LG1, a bit meh.
Yes we all love him for his passion and what he achieved with us, but let's keep it in perspective....he's untested at this level.

He was excellent in league 2 and if you look at the start of last season before O'Neill left Stoke, the games he played in they got some good results. So I'd say league 1 is about his level at this moment in time.

Having Wilson in the back line will help Taylor Connelly and Crama come on leaps and bounds.

There were numerous times he kept up with speedy strikers with us but looks like he’s in slo-mo!

So were Barry Hayles, Jason Roberts, Nathan Ellington etc, etc He'll be playing alongside a virtual ever present for the league champions last season. He'll be a great signing.

I see where your coming from, remember Ryan Sweeney, great season with us, DC got him on loan again next season, didn't match up to our expectations, not sure where he is today

We just have to patient with this one whilst the waiting for the announcement is frustrating it will happen I also expect another big signing that everyone will go how the hell have we pulled that one off exciting times to be a gas head

Half the time it’s that speed that gets a lad out of trouble. It’s knowing where to be before it even happens, like a certain Tony Craig. He was the master of it.

I have absolutely no concerns or reservations about this signing. His positioning, intelligence, power, height at the age of 19 made him one of if not the best Centre-Back in the division. He's had a year of training with Stoke's first team and 15 championship appearances. At 21 his ceiling is very high, and for £270-300k reported, he's an absolute no brainer. Boy is mustard.

Weird indeed. Very unlike Rovers to jump the gun and make assumptions. Oh wait. Who at Rovers has jumped the gun on Taylor? Wael tweeted him and then deleted the tweet. But it was a joke anyway, lighten up.
