What happens when you sell all your best players and replace with vastly inexperienced players, seems a bit familiar

Aw please boss, can we train with a ball now, Pasha says they are too expensive.

In the same vein again (sorry for knicking ideas!) But boss, I love pork.

Then surely the EFL will deal with it? We know how that went....

There was some reasonable coverage at the time but not that it led to anything. Interest waned and now no media is really interested in Rovers or the Venky angle.

Nothing trivial.

I wish him many more injuries.

Posh 2-1 down now with just under 10 mins to go. As things stand they're bottom of League 1 with one point from seven games.

Three of them aren't/weren't fit and there's not a cat in hell's chance the option is ever taken taken up on Baradji imo. But yeah, sorry, you're right they've all been great.

Leonard free kick deflected into the net at Huddersfield. 1-0 Peterborough

Apparently picked up an injury on his first training session after joining them last year. Although he has since been training with their first team squad. Looks like he was injured again during pre season, although did return and play 45 mins last week

They pretty much were in partnership that was the whole idea as stated they'd have their name over the door and the advertising leverage whilst Kentaro/SEM would cover everything else. Of course rules don't allow that kind of co ownership so a simple contract is drawn up instead to cover for it, so co owners no probably not but unofficial partners and maybe initial investors ? Yes very possible. As far as i know there was never any proof of that contract being terminated/paid off/expiring, just some rumours of an alleged court case and out of court settlement. More smoke and mirrors probably but why after that alleged event was some 3rd party bringing in the managers/head coaches and other staff certainly up until Mowbray/Venus/Waggot and co ? The links have remained very much alive imo just well buried now when stuff takes place as it does well away from the club itself who knows who is involved.

@RevidgeBlue picking players you don’t like, one who hasn’t even played a minute yet, to suggest they’re only made to make someone money? That sort of viewpoint dilutes to what went on in those initial years. The stories of Etuhu, Murphy and Pudsey the bear; the millions tied up in those initial seasons, I’d say a huge portion of the 150m the club owes the owners in gift loans.

Thoughts on Hyam leaving chaddy

Whats your rating out of 10 for the window and where do you think we are likely to finish?

I am going to be visiting a Premier League Fan Zone in KC on the 20th and would love to buy a shirt to wear with pride. Lost my 4 shirts when we lost the house to a fire. Any rotund fans willing to part with a home shirt and get it here to Missouri USA before the 20th Sep let me know

BwD council need to help Supporters not penalising them

I'm good thanks. Just been busy with other activities

Todd “That’s a John Deere Val, I should know, I played for Norwich. But this lot over here, the new lads. Never heard of em. It’s going to take weeks just to learn their names” Val “I’ll bear that in mind Sondre”

Boss, where’s the pigs in blankets gone?

Rovers “air guitar” competition adjudged “disappointing”…

Don't know if this is the right thread but stories on the LT and BBC 😯 website about a crackdown on parking on matchdays. Yet more efforts from the Club/ Council/ Local Police to make it as difficult and disheartening as possible to attend games. When I first started watching in the early 70's, the CarPark opposite the Red Brick Theatre and the site now occupied by travellers were available. And crowds then were maybe 50% of what they are even now. Now there's nowhere anywhere that isn't Club owned (and Im assuming a small fortune) and the Council seem to delight in making any usable space "Residents only" for no real reason. They're not private roads and they dont pay for the upkeep thereof so why should they have their cake and eat it? The Council are scumbags, go out of their way to make life difficult for us but the at the sniff of any success, they're the first ones in trying to get a photo opportunity.

They were never in partnership. Venky's granted Kentaro a contract to run the Club on their behalf in the early days although that formal arrangement was shelved fairly quickly after they got burnt is my understanding. There's no doubt though that the general modus operandi has enabled agents to have a beano at the Club's expense over the years and it seems to be getting worse again just recently. Dennis/Baradji/Forshaw x2 /Gueye potentially out on loan. Only one party benefitting out of those transactions, the agents.

Gaffer, the new loans manager is the best striker in the club. He's the only one ever on side when I play a forward ball.
