A Little Bird Tells Me 10:17 - Aug 7 with 18563 views | mingthemerciless | A little bird ( who has been right before ) tells me that a very young but very promising centre half may be joining the 'Dale on loan from a nearby Championship club. | | | | |

Thompson scored a hat trick playing on the right wing in the rugby league half of one of those 50/50 games against Hornets. Hornets had a couple of fast lads in the backs but he made them look like they were running in treacle. | | | |

Saw that earlier but never sure of these deals until they are done, "set to join" And joined are never the same.... | |

A Little Bird Tells Me on 17:18 - Aug 7 with 3504 views | Shun | As sweetcorn and Moony have said, Rovers fans aren’t happy on Twitter and they seem to think he could do a job in their squad. Very pleasing if he does arrive. We’ve seen with Stanton in the past how a player who doesn't have naturally brilliant defensive skills can still make an excellent defender because of pace. | | | |

Pete O Rourke usually on the money. Nothing from either club yet though? Rapid centre half required for the Dale for sure. Big Jim and E O Connell ( I like both ) are blessed with good footballing ability but sadly not pace!! | | | |

A Little Bird Tells Me on 18:40 - Aug 7 with 3176 views | BartRowou | Apologies for going all tactical, but could this mean a back three (TM/JM/EOC)? This seems to suit Big Jim better and the prospect of Nozzer and McLaughlin bombing on from full back is not unappealing either. | |

Think EOC is rumoured to be better in front of a back 2, as opposed to a CB in a back 2. RM TM JMC RND EOC OR CC RP MD/AW IH | | | |

Did you mean Steve Taylor ? Steve Taylor was lightening over a short burst, and his reactions were brilliant. Thompson was quick over a longer sprint as was Milner. Difficult to know who was our fastest, on the wing, but no one has ever been quicker as the fox in the box than Taylor, and brilliant finisher too. | |

A Little Bird Tells Me on 19:27 - Aug 7 with 2960 views | D_Alien | Will be an amazing piece of business by BBM if this happens, and i reckon we'd be sorted The option to play with a back five or back four with either Ryan or EOC or MJW in front gives us so many options. Ultimately, if we can be more solid defensively the attacking capabilities will flow naturally. A pacy young goalscorer on loan would be the icing on the cake I'd go so far as to say it'd change my previous thinking about where we might end up this season | |

It’s a done deal by all accounts, although someone at the club isn’t happy the news has been leaked. [Post edited 7 Aug 2019 19:30]

Presumably they’ll be looking at where the leak came from as only both clubs and any agents involved would have been in the know. | |

At the time it was released on Twitter I though someone might not be chuffed at the news being leaked, suppose it depends on which side the info came from, it could scupper the deal if someone higher up the food chain took an interest in what seems to be a bright young player.... | |

Can't blame col. He wasn't involved in the recruitment, was he? Someone at the club has loose lips. | |
