Joey Barton has ruled out the prospect of Bristol Rovers signing any free agents between now and the end of the season insisting he’s happy with the squad at his disposal despite what he considered was a disappointing January window for the Gas.
Rovers fell to their third straight league defeat on Saturday, losing 2-0 at home to MK Dons four days after deadline day in which Barton admits they were unable to secure some of their key targets, particularly in defence, and graded the window 5/10.
Rovers made five signings across January with defender Jarell Quansah and goalkeeper Ellery Balcombe having started the last two games while midfielder Grant Ward played 86 minutes against MK Dons and Lamare Bogarde made his debut off the bench. Full-back Calum Macdonald is the only new arrival yet to be involved.
