Looks like he's up before the firing squad or the hostage in a video making a ransom demand or something. We've done well if we've got £1m for him Id say and financially it's probably a very lucrative move for Buckley.

Depends how you define "spending money". To me selling £7m worth of players and spending £7m on players coming in is spending nothing not "spending £7m on transfer fees". Im very easily irritated by anything the Club does these days but it also irritates me when the official site parades someone as "the 8th" signing of the summer etc making it sound as though it's the 8th outright addition when in reality including departing loanees there's probably at least that many if not more gone out so if anything Id guess we're slightly down on numbers.

He definitely unfollowed them, I checked a few days ago. So must have followed them again.

Hedges fired it wide - so you don't need to give him any credit. A player making an excellent run and not being passed to isn't his fault.

😆😆

Rather he joined derby than those plastics

Based on the evidence I’ve seen (not much) I’d rather Dolan and Weimann over Kargbo and Henriksson. But it’s way too early (as I said!) to start making accurate assessments. Dolan for work rate and Weimann for G/A returns. I’m hopeful both turn out to be significant improvements, but right now, I’d take knows.

Have we actually accepted a bid from Derby or was that the local rag jumping the gun? (it would be an interesting tribunals case if the fee was agreed, the player wanted the move but then Rovers tried to back out... Wonder if Venkys would take Suhail to court for exceeding his authority...)

If it does work, I will be surprised. But either way you look at it, with Waggott and JE gone, replaced by RG and VI - we now have a fully ‘aligned’ team. Pasha is at the wheel! Weirdly, I think we will end up spending more money than we have done recently because this system plays to Pasha and Rudys ego. Lets see.

Nice ball to Hedges, good awareness but nothing that earth shattering. Hedges still had a lot to do. (And I hate giving Hedges any credit. 🙂) Did he do anything else in the game apart from that? Im not sure how Cantwell not passing to him goes down as a positive on his balance sheet.

It’s got plenty of space even when full. They also do VIP on the balcony which is great too, worth the few extra pounds in my experience.

Such a petty thing to do, whenever a player unfollows a club they are leaving

Well you said after 30mins of watching him you had him down as a rudderless speedboat with no end product and has done nothing since to convince you otherwise whilst he is going to be frustrating (I don’t use the match day thread) sat perfectly showed how his pace opens up space for others and that assist was lovely he’s raw but there’s something in him and he will frustrate and will likely take time but to say you have seen nothing in him is pretty strange especially after sat

Myles could be your man.

So you saw Hedges miss the sitter he laid on his plate and also Cantwell greedily not releasing him when he was through on goal then?

Disappointing to see such short memories. Already forgotten about the legendary tackle?

Tronstad had a poor start but turned out to be a great player for us.

Not sure what you're getting at with that somewhat smart arse comment but as I posted in the matchday thread at the time I saw the final 70 minutes of the game. Thanks for asking though.

He actually hasn’t. Someone made that one up. Not that it really changes anything that he hasn’t! Hope he goes to Wrexham. Would be funny to see Derby turned down again.

Im sure Wrexham could sweeten the deal by throwing him an extra £5K-£10K/week

His pace opens up the game for others - you have to respect that he can run in behind with ease. With Dolan you never had to be scared of that. That'll create opportunities for Cantwell et al.
