If we did they weren't very good. Think most of our loans out last year flopped.

Packed Pleasington?

Brilliant that.

This 150th game is the regime's opportunity to paint an image of normality to the world. They'll be expecting a bumper crowd of people to turn up for the 'special' occasion, probably stick some Rovers 'legends' on the pitch before the game, wear a special shirt. This will all make them look and feel legitimate. I agree the best, probably only way, for supporters to send a message to them and the watching people on Sky, is to not turn up for it. I also appreciate that is everyone's own choice and might not be acceptable to some. So ultimately we will get a half-way house. We won't get a total boycott of the game or a ridiculously low crowd, but the ground will be more than half empty, which tells a story in itself for what should be a significant occasion in our history. Personally even ignoring the 150th stuff the ignominy and humiliation of sitting there as our former manager, captain and half our side turn up for Derby, and imbeciles around me in the stands booing/blaming them for our demise, is enough to ensure I stay well away from Ewood, as I genuinely would not be able to go and sit there without either falling out with someone or walking out in disgust.

What a coincidence that all the dots are joining again just at the same time there is a massive player and staff turnover resembling the early Venky era.

All gone quiet with the protest groups?...anything happening/planned Glen as these Clowns continue to swing their Wrecking Ball at what is left at Ewood.

If Toth keeps playing well he'll probably be the next 2 mill plus sale.

Wasn't that first posted by @Kjell on here before Twitter picked it up?

Agree there's no reason to drop Ohashi, but equally I think they should start Gudjohnsen as something has to change in attack. Perhaps shift Morishita out wide for Kargbo, and then put Ohashi behind Gudjohnsen?

Then move onto the expiring in ‘27 cohort? (which includes both senior ‘keepers)

its over a year old...

Get Forshaw fit, bring in some Prem kid loan cover in Jan the flog Tronstad would be my guess. I would say this will only happen if we are ok in the league but i genuinely don't think they give a stuff about that it's all about realising whatever assets are left.

Nope they haven’t which I find annoying to me you can’t claim to love the club but be happy to sit in silence

My concern about Rhodes being Loan Manager is as much about the fact we appear to have created this role this summer (jobs for the boys) as about his ability. Prior to this summer, the role was seemingly done by the coaches/academy manager? Or did we have one I didn’t know about?

We all know the real reasons for him to leave and this is nothing to do with him being a snake - it’s a sad sight fans blaming each other or people who leave the club when we all know what the common denominator is re derby I wonder if half of our team who know play there will say anything about the real snakes at our club in their interviews, I don’t follow derby news but would be interested

Anyone who turns up with one of those needs it ramming up their arse. The reason Derby are 'Derby Rovers' is down to Blackburn Rovers incompetence and lack of ambition nothing more nothing less. Surely even the boo boys, who one min shout Venkys Out then turn up to have a go at the former head coach and players, can see the irony in it. Keep sights on the real targets not the departed.

Personally I think some of the more regular under 21's will be loaned to but it has to be for regular playing time and the right standard.

Says that Eustace didn’t leave for family reasons. Maybe the inflatable snakes for the anniversary game may be popped

He was watching the under 21 team at Preston yesterday. I forgot to add that Stuart Jones was also watching.

There will be a flurry of loans to non league in the coming weeks, as there was last season

I have a feeling of dread that the answer to that question is Forshaw (when/if he is fit) Baradji, Tavares, TGH, & Montgomery all look more like box to box options to me

Whilst not a direct reply to your post, it does loseley tie in Current players available for U21s & U18s. I have included Montgomery, Tyjon, Michalski etc as they look to be subs at most in the first team picture, so should get a few games for the U21s red = currently loaned out GK - Michalski, Goddard, Barrett, Honor, Kahn, Thompson, Wolsoncroft, Holt, Krajewski CB - O'Riordan, Atcheson, Litherland, Pratt, Olson, Davies, Eze, Decandia, Kelley-Quinn, McIlroy, Henderson LB - Batty, Powell, Pates, Leeming, RB - Duru, Houghton, Odugun, Wilkinson, Pitt CM - Garrett, Montgomery, O'Grady-Macken, Dunn, Edmondson, Farkas, Vare, Mansbridge, Potter, Ball AM/Wingers - Tyjon, Wood, A.Doherty, Mullarkey-Matthews, Strich, Dlamini, Leatherbarrow, Sergeant, McCoy, Clanford, Lister, S - Boggan, Joseph, Higgins, Cryer (Tyjon & Wood have also played up top)

Cheers - any other key points from this?

Ismeal 'Jordan I'd like to take out a loan...for a player' Rhodes 'do you have any collateral?' Ismeal 'sorry my director Has left my team desolate, he's sold off all my collateral, I'm destitute'. Rhodes 'then no'

Forget about one off boycotts and all that, won’t happen here. What will happen is gates will continue to drop year on year as we fall down the leagues. Thats your protest right there - but this lot do not care one iota. They’ll just shut the ‘unviable’ academy, the ‘not fit for purpose’ training ground, the ‘surplus’ Riverside and on and on.
