Joey Barton has revealed Bristol Rovers' heavy defeat to League One strugglers Morecambe on Saturday will have consequences in the transfer market, with players set to leave the club before Tuesday's deadline.
The Gas fell to a 5-1 defeat at the Mazuma Stadium and manager Barton says that performance has confirmed his view that he needs to be "ruthless" and certain unnamed players "need to move on".
Barton intends to be busy bringing players into the club, too. Rovers have made three signings in the shape of Ellery Balcombe, Jarell Quansah and Grant Ward and the manager wants several more deals to be sealed by 11pm on Tuesday.
