No we won't because we are not in the top 6. That is where we differ from the top teams in the division. Smith, Martin and JCH would give us a bloody good go at the playoffs. we've had great strikers in the past and failed to get promotion. Rest of team needs to be better. |

I always think in proportion to our league we've had better strikers than the sh**. Probably proven by many going upwards in their career after us. But we haven't had many in other positions. Especially centre mid. Who was the last CM, that got a good move from us? Holloway? |

It's weird that certain clubs seem to produce certain types of player/ positions. |

In my time supporting Rovers I would say it's pretty much on a par in regards to the strikers.
C*ty have had Andy Cole, Shaun Goater, Leroy Lita, Tammy Abraham, Bobby Reid to name a few who were decent and gone onto play either at the very highest level or Premier League football.

Marcus Browning sold for 500k, Chris Lines for 50k but neither played much at a higher level so I would count Ollie as the last one who went to QPR in August 1991. |

But the OP said "Not Many in other positions" Ronnie Dix. Nathan Elllington. Ray Graydon. Ricky Lambert. Tom Lockyer. Gary Mabbutt. Paul Randall. Stuart Sinclair. Marcus Stewart. Snake. Martin Thomas. Steve Yates |

We somehow managed it in the last window Would be typical Rovers to end the window weaker than when we started. Prove me wrong. |

Perhaps he'll join us pre-season as a free agent triallist!

Don't think he's that bothered mate. Signed him from us for below market value, smashed in 30 odd goals, promotion to Championship. Plus he's got the potentially massive sell on windfall to come from future Toney deal and numerous sellable assets in Ronnie Edwards, Kwame Poku, Harrison Burrows etc etc. |

Also they are one game away from a cup final. He's probably worth less than 300k now . It be advantageous just to keep him and make a statement . They are on a double with money coming in from all sides !. |
