He was brought in at short notice as Mmaee was being a twat and we needed to cover him

Sam Vokes mk2,but with even less goals.

Ennis could be a 20 goals striker,but it would take him 5/6 seasons to get those 20 goals.

£500k compared to £7m (& massively less wages) to be fair to Ennis
completely different types of players but both shit yes

Ennis was a deadline day panic signing

sometimes deadline panic signings are unavoidable however such signings should be loans only

[foxysgloves]

We’re signing Blackburn cast offs.

And Blackburn are widely tipped as relegation contenders.

That’s slightly concerning.

[GeneralFaye]

Thought he was leaving then when I saw this thread randomly spring to the top, cheers for another disappointment.

And the fact Ennis was declared the man for the job is ridiculous.

We signed Huth and Tuncay who relegated Middlesbrough

Crystal Palace signed Wharton from Blackburn who were fighting relegation

Tevez and Mascherano only just survived relegation at West Ham but Liverpool and Manchester United weren’t bothered

Yeah by that same notion Shaqiri shouldn't have gone Liverpool.

It’s absolute nonsense isn’t it

Isn't every player who leaves a club a cast off by that logic?

Blackburn have one of the best strikers in the league. Will he be a cast off from a relegation contender if he leaves?

I’m trying to think of a worse striker I’ve seen in the near 30 years I’ve been going, and having great difficulty doing so.

Do you have to think back that far?

Wesley?
Gayle?

Not a fan of his but he's good enough to be a squad player.

He’s pretty awful but as long as he’s nothing more than an option off the bench for a few minutes no problem. If he wants more than that he needs to leave. He’s meant to be an ok league one striker, wouldn’t someone at that level be willing to pay something for him?

Aaron Ramsdale was goalkeeper for two relegated sides in consecutive seasons

Stansfield was centre forward for Birmingham City who DID get relegated to league one

Would you not have him?

Except he didn't cost shitloads. I'm OK with punts that don't work out. It's the multimillion pound wasters that eat me up inside

I’d pick Lisa fucking Stansfield ahead of most of our alleged strikers.

Or we signed a player they wanted to keep and who we were apparently in for £5m last year but he'd run his contract down if they didn't sell.

Sounds better when it's put like that?

No chance she'll find the back of the net, she can't even find her baby and she's been around the world looking for it.

There’s a big difference between Niall Ennis and Stansfield.

Gallagher I’m not too unhappy about.

Travers I’m not sure.

I’m not too unhappy with Gallagher although he’s probably not the goalscorer we need.

If we had him plus someone like Stansfield I’d feel more confident.

Ennis is the concern for me. Has league one written all over him and potentially starting for us in the season opener. That’s a worry.

The time to worry is if he's starting for us in September.

Unless he's done a Carl Saunders and had a crazy month!

Blackburn have had a right go at strengthening their forward line though, and they have 'dem dodgy foreign owners' innit? Absent at the wheel and struggling to get cash out of India!

I doubt they'll be in the relegation mix...

That lump of shit cost 8 million! Can’t compare him to Ennis who is a cheap squad player.

[gingerninja]

Ennis shouldn't and hopefully won't be starting many games if we get our targets and M'waee gets off the sick bed, simply can't start on Saturday, although looking at the way things are going, he will.

AST she got brown wings
I’d find the back of her something 😱😂

Apparently a week or so ago Derby were after him on loan I think

[johnnysoul60]

What pisses me off about the toss signings is they don't add anything and they slow the progress of our young players .

I have no idea if Nathan Lowe is good enough but at his age he needs game time and if he had been given the time Wesley and Ennis have had he would be further forward in his career.
now.

I get we might not be able to sign enough quality to improve us much due to the rules but lets have a policy to play youth instead of older players who add nothing , in the end it will bring progress
