That’s not from an official source that Iv seen?

Genuinely wouldn't put anything past the club these days tbh. It's only my opinion but i think Baradji replaces Trav and the RW will be likely be a loan

I actually couldn't care less about this Baradji now. It's the top part of the pitch that matters.

To your first point - I'm of the opinion it's weakened our position considerably. To your second, absolutely.

Somewhere i have saved an article from the takeover time from an Indian business website who published an article on it and it stated they were using a bank loan for the purchase. I can't remember which bank it said it was but i know it wasn't the usual State Bank of India. It's always been my view that however it was purchased they got that money back pretty quickly through player sales.

I've still got zero problem with Ismael telling the truth - that Travis wants out and has submitted a transfer request. As for the spinning narrative - you mean what's left of our fan base, right? Tens of thousands have walked away.

well done “Val” for being honest

FFS he hasn't gone yet. However, a word to the wise, GET ON WITH IT WILL YE? Mealy mouthed mendacious meatheads, the lot of em. VENKY INBREDS AND CHURLISH NE'ER DO WELLS OUT!

If you think the club are beyond spinning it that he covers both positions, it may be an unpleasant finish to the transfer window. This is our last ESC slot I think, unless I'm having a brain fart, and they've struggled to land a RW with a slot available (as they could have cancelled Mafoumbi at any time). Let's not forget De Neve has played a lot of his football as a LB and LWB but he's basically playing on the wing here.

Bombay Bicycle Club - Shuffle

Yeah the chair thing is daft - when we left Kaiser Chiefs early it was like a bloody obstacle course trying to get away! Similarly we tried to make our way around the main stage crowd while Courteeners were on and it was nigh on impossible. They need to do something to contain the chairs to a certain area - it was like seeing Brits on holiday at times with their beach towels - groups of empty chairs set out it 'reserve' a decent spot at the main stage for later while their owners were away watching something else. Have booked again for 2026 🙂

But why we have to ask? Isak is able to release a statement why isn’t Travis?

Honestly it’s embarrassing, some fans should start showing a backbone and stop accepting it, I feel some people deserve this regime by how they blindly criticise players/staff for leaving and how fans spin narratives like “he isn’t that good anyway, he’s dirty” is strange

If Baradji does sign, surely we have to loan a midfielder on top. We wont, but we should.

Mad that they do indeed have just this one actual skill, and no others, and it has to be one that actively fucks us over and helps prolong the misery.

I asked you on the Fans forum thread, page 148. If you read from there for the next five pages or so, you will see Rover Clitheroe has asked a number of times. Also mentioned by RF99 and in one instance you only addressed one part of the post and ignored the reference to the minutes.

A very random post from me here. Just going to post a very old article https://www.theguardian.com/sport/david-conn-inside-sport-blog/2010/dec/21/blackburn-rovers-venkys-jerome-anderson to me it reads they aren’t billionaires that we all think they are… ? Having used a bit of chat gpt as well it doesn’t exactly sound there’s any proof they are billionaires. Few statements in that article also stating there was no information about where they used the money to acquire us. I know it’s old news but thought I’d give it some old spotlight, especially when we are still linked to hiring people of similar agencies…

I think the best we will get from him is an admission that he was never offered a new contract and some comments about how difficult it has been in the last few weeks as he's been fit and wanting to play but was told to stay away. Then it will be the usual PR soundbites about what a great big club Derby are, straight out of the new signing playbook.

I just hope that Travis is man enough to spill the beans. The club shat on him, so hope he bites back.

According to Transfermarket, he's only played RW 5 times. He's being playing CM for pretty much is whole career. He's Trav's replacement.

And if he plays and just goes through the motions trying to avoid injury or he gets himself sent off then he's a liability. There's only one way to end this and we all know what it is and if not ten tell him you are going nowhere till summer so play properly and earn your wages or get suspended and fined. Then you'll be frozen out till the seasons end and only do your chances of a good contract somewhere else major harm. All party's need to stop effing about now including Derby. My own thoughts on this are perhaps those upstairs dragging it out till the windows end then conceding to Derby's offer at the last min therefore nobody else will come in. Derby might well be banking on that or gong along with it.

Travis has never struck me as a character who would refuse to play. Quite the opposite I think he'd put a shift in even if he wasn't 100% fit or ready. Indeed he was available pre-season and at West Brom. So yeah, on balance I'd believe that the issue is more that the Club are desperate to cash in and get his wages gone so are doing their level best to generate some sort of bidding war and ensure he doesn't get injured in the meantime.

The only data I want on this prick is here is your P45 now fuck off back to where you come from, as you downed tools and now we are downing you. The guy is poison.

Posted just as a few were saying it's getting a bit quiet on the incoming transfer front. Hi Privvy 👋

Seems a likely explanation.
