Apparently this 33-year-old(?) Jamaican international winger is training at Ewood with the Rovers squad,he is currently contracted to Leyton Orient of Division II.
Now Im all for offering opportunities to freebies,but really a 33-year-old winger from the bottom division. What does that say about Connor Mahoney or young Tomlinson ? :?

I have to ask what about some defenders instead ??? Where all the problems seem to be......

Gary Bowyer seems to have a built-in aversion to picking our own youth/reserve youngsters.

I cannot agree more Bob
Another winger over a defender/youth product is baffling and a little annoying
Let's hope he decides not to sign him but if he continues to ignore the fact we have 3 central backs in the team we will come unstuck
Kilgallon is injury prone and if one of the other 2 becomes injured we will have a bit of this and a bit of that filling in which isn't the answer.

I don't think this will amount to anything, Robin.
Sometimes, it's just a matter of a player asking to train with a club to keep fit. Signing him would be absolutely pointless.
As for the centre-back shortage, I wonder if it's a case of Bowyer believing that Spurr and Lenihan provide adequate cover.
There doesn't seem to have been any attempt to get Doneil Henry Back on loan, which is surprising.

Although we are in this embargo, its still quite baffling on why we would 'entertain' such a player given age and standing.
it would appear GB is willing to consider almost anyone who could done a pair of boots, hope its not the desperation of a drowning man.
As for centre backs, for me and what I saw last year, Baptiste was always going to be a valuable 'loss' to us as I thought he was outstanding in his own calm assured way.
Didn't see Henry play so can't comment on that loss, but it would seem he could be seen as a similar loss

It's quite ironic that a man who has set his team up to be mainly cautious/defensive is neglecting any signings for his defence in favour for attacking players
Will this be bowyers new style if so I am in.
