I appreciate that but it doesn't mean I have to like the output. 🙂 Strangely enough the LT comments mob (assuming a few are genuine) seem to dislike his output in equal measure because they view him as extremely anti the Club! It takes all sorts I suppose.

Yep We still need a starting left wing back though, Hedges out for a while, and then out of contract, Pickering & Ribeiro are good left backs, but not wing backs, and De Neve has no defensive awareness Personally still think that of the currently available options, Powell would be the best fit. But we cant look at a 20 year old with 5 senior appearances as anything other than a backup option & future prospect

£3.5 million as touted for Jørgensen seems an awful lot for a 25-year-old lad who's been scuffling around minor Scandinavian leagues in recent years. And why a 3 year plus contract when he's never been anywhere more than 2 seasons?

Yeah if it’s cantwell he might as well leave right now. I swear he has these little issues and can’t play. He’s a right wimp.

Yea I'll be honest he looked OK tbf but yea the struggle to figure out where was going to go atleast has been made easier now!

The way the media makes money (if indeed it does) in 2026, sadly, is massively different to the days when Peter White was around

Point taken...I agree completely that we have been totally short changed by so many former "celeb" players and local radio. All the commentary about the wall paper and colour of the carpets etc and nothing-zilch- about the big, fat shitty elephant, stinking out the room...

That's only appeared because of Jackson's report on who we should be "targeting"

@StubbsUK @Roth can we have an ITK index? 😁

Only in our hearts and minds, I'm afraid.

What he says on his podcast and what he says in "print" seem to be 2 wildly different things. I can't respect that even if he does have to put food on the table etc etc. But then he isnt a supporter of the Club like us so I suppose it doesn't matter in the slightest to him. What we need at the moment is a Peter White ripping the ownership and the management to shreds not a tame local rag telling the Club how brilliant they are. It would make the job of the Coalition so much easier.

Please tell me that this is a genuine thing somewhere on this forum

Cantwell based on the strapping would be my guess

No. Maybe, I need to catch up...but...I have heard him calling out the regime over the last couple of years...and I am grateful for small mercies, given the crap on Radio Lancashire etc..

Ive not done too badly then, considering.

Afimico Pululu latest name being touted around

A wild few days for the ITK rankings. Mercer surging up the table. Nixon slightly improved as well. Jackson and RoversXtra seemingly duped by a source who may have been acting on the club's orders, or maybe not, causing chaos either way.

The player who "has been dealing with a problem for a few weeks" is Cantwell or Tronstad I reckon.

Did you read the pieces he put out yesterday about Hedges and new contracts?

I don't think that is fair

Im the same with certain games from the 70's. Ask me what I was doing this time last week and I havent a clue!

Well, well, next time I travel to Ewood, I'm going to Scotland? 🙂 (Sorry, I ruined it all for you.)

Just a lap dog putting out PR pieces for the Club - and they go and ban him!. I do feel really sorry for him about that, and can't understand why - they couldnt have wished for a tamer more compliant local journo. Compare that with the likes of a proper journalist, Peter White. His piece unearthed by Gav on the nostalgia thread about the 1977 FA Cup tie against first division Derby County (who were a Division above us at the time) opened something like: "The main disappointment about the game was that Rovers failed to do themselves justice". Proper journalism telling it how it is and pulling no punches. We havent seen anything like that from the LT probably since John Williams' time as he was extremely sensitive about the PR coming out of the Club and anything written about the Club. Andy Cryer (I think) did briefly peek his nose above the parapet about Kean and didnt last long.

Happy birthday to her. I’ve a cousin in Cheshire who was 101 last June. Apart from failed eyesight he has all his facilities and can discuss Rovers from the 1930’s as if the games were last Saturday

Forshaw back to save us
