TBF if it's a loan deal then he can sign from Thursday onwards too.

I don't think they'll get the most out of him playing the way they do. Just my opinion.... but with Vaz Te, Eduardo and possibly maynard they're obviously trying to add pace

Excellent. Will be one of our best ever January windows if this goes through.

They want maynard as well then....

WHU are opening talks with Bristol City for Nicky Maynard.

A few stoke correspondents/midlands reporters now saying the Collins deal is on. (on twitter)

From the horses mouth, Sharp confirmed himself and he was gutted he couldn't feature tonight.

According to Alan Nixon the reason was ''so trivial'' that he expected it to be resolved.

Didn't register in time. So it'll be Saturday live on TV when he gets his chance. It'll probably be Lambert and our new Japan international striker tonight...!

...on his way to our training ground I hope!

Good luck for the rest of the season Donnylee. Nice to see oppo making fair comments like you have. TBF all Doncaster fans are very fair in their views. Hope you stay up.

Good post, appreciate your views. Out of interest....has he ever played with a ''big man'' at Donny? As we're kind of wondering how a little man/big man partnership will strike off here, with him and Lambo.

nope.

Not able to play, wasn't registered in time. Thought we had until mid-day today, but that's just loans.

I cannot see Pearce here, not sure how that would go down with everyone either!

You haven't seen us much in the last 3 years then.

billysharp10 billy sharp Sad day leaving doncaster today great memories enjoyed every minute so thankyou to all the fans and my team mates u have been amazing. #drfc

I think so, but very rarely played. He's in a purple patch at the mo, but I don't think he's any better than they've got at the mo. They've just added another average striker to the mix.

What a panic buy that is.

I think the quickness in this is more down to the failure to sign Hooper than anything else. We've worked all window on that one, but they wouldn't sell.

Sounds like he turned down Leicester in hope we'd come in for him.

If they couldn't afford Jelavic (6m+) then they cannot afford Lambert. And I'm pretty sure NC would refuse any offers from any team in this league. We'd be handing the title to WHU otherwise, and I know NC wants us to win the league. We don't need the money so I think you can safely dismiss that as total tosh.

left sided.

Alan Nixon, who has been spot on with everything so far, has just said that this is not happening. He is one we enquired about before Collins.
