Brighton bottled it in the playoffs and need a team capable of coping better this year. Walking out to 30k+ Leeds fans tomorrow will show us if we can handle the heat or need more experienced players to be brought in soonest. Lose this and I fear for being competitive in those big games

West Brom and Chelsea can't agree a settlement for Izzy Brown. Think Chelsea could smooth it over by offering Moses on season long loan.

As I posted correctly about Adomah and Richardson signing this week, I can also confirm we are in talks with Ake although chelsea would prefer a loan to a premiership club. Once the deal for Adomah is completed expect Middlesbrough to make an official bid for Billy Sharp. Also the deal for Vitor from portugal is not over, talks are ongoing between Mfc, Mendes and Vitor. Middlesbrough are also tracking Max Clayton over the next season. BH

"It's hard to make your mark when you've only got 12 or 13 senior players, " said the former Manchester United and England midfielder ahead of Saturday's opening game at Doncaster Rovers.

Looks like someone is all ready lining up his excuses for failure, not considering there has not been a ball kicked in anger yet!

Swansea are unlikely to make another signing this summer, as Rory Donnelly has proven himself as decent cover for both Bony and Michu this summer.

The only type of signing the swans would make, is of a young striker on loan from abroad, which would mean Donnelly would go out on loan.

But personally I would like to see him be given a chance, as he ripped the Irish league apart during his time at cliftonville.

Also heard that James Loveridge is to be released. Huw Jenkins watched the youth system, and was surprised that he was given a pro contract. Likely destination, one of the bristol sides.

Heard on Derby website that young striker Callum Ball has joined the seagulls on loan until October.

Know the boy well personally and his dad Johnny, bit disappointed Derby haven't kept him this year but with Cloughie it is probably about getting him games regularly instead of warming the bench which is what he did mostly when on loan at Coventry City for last season.

Callum is tall striker though has played as centre-back in reserve fixtures and for once has come back pre-season fit and injury free, (had long term ankle problem last season, no surgery though).

Scored a cracker Cov vs Arsenal in cup game, more like that and you'll want him permanently! Good luck to the boy and hope he does well for you but he comes back in free flowing scoring form!

After yesterday signing Tom Cairney on loan and Tommy Spurr on a free, Blackburn Rovers will today sign Cairneys Hull teammate Corry Evans, also on a 6 month loan. They are also interested in signing James McClean ob loan for the season and David Davis from Wolves after missing out on Barry Bannan. Also, Jay Spearing is to make a decision over whether to sign for Rovers this week with Liverpool in a hurry for him to leave. With Bolton unsure on whether to bid for the player, the Reds will tell him that he has to move to Blackburn.
