Any new rumors regarding Travis?

Very sad to hear Travis will be off, if it's true. Gutting. Our best players up against us in the same League while we watch Cadbury's Assorted FC.

He said that in a Norwegian podcast with a local newspaper in Haugesund where his girlfriend is from and where he spent some amazing years playing for Haugesunds FK. His dream is to go to PL, but that won’t happen with rovers and him turning 30 this year it makes sense to go back to Norway to finish his career and take care of his family.

😂 How could I? to be fair - he did contribute and is a solid player for the remaining 10-15 minutes to see out games. I feel more confident with subbing in Forshaw then Bucko to see out a game.

Surely one of the players/coaches could’ve coughed up seven quid for one? (Ok, it’s for your car, but just don’t let on) https://www.roverstore.co.uk/giftsaccessories/souvenirs/badges-keyrings-f/4369_blackburn-rovers-car-pennant.html

Seems to be. Lots of big clubs linked with him in the past, but doubts over his fitness. The player wants to come and both clubs seem keen so I think it will get done eventually. We are probably stalling until Brittain gets sold and we have some money come in.

I am not going to sit back and let you post rubbish about me. It doesn't bother me if he goes to either Derby or Middlesbrough so I have nothing to accept. The only thing I accept is he wont be a Rover by the end of this week. Derby haven't put another bid in? How would you know that? I stand by what I posted on Monday morning - at that point, I was told Derby were leading the way and Brittain would be gone by the end of the week - that does not suggest to me that Derby have done nothing since making their first bid some 3 weeks ago!!! As for Brittain signing a new contract - I posted what I was told 3 days before the Stanley game ie Rovers would announce Brittain's new contract and two new signings before the Stanley game. So what happened before the Stanley game - Middlesbrough made their play for Brittain and we are told a medical issue with Baradji had been found. All you seem capable of is rubbishing players and managers when they have left Rovers, rubbishing players other teams sign and glorifying, parrot fashion, all that comes out of Rovers. Spot on. You just love having a go at me don't you! I post in good faith. If I hear something and I think it can be shared on a MB then I do. If I hear something 'sensitive', and I hear plenty, then for obvious reasons I refrain from posting. I do not make wild guesses!!! JRC gone - posted before reported anywhere Two signings before Stanley game - posted before reported anywhere about a 2nd signing. I knew it was Baradji but too sensitive to name Friendly set-up for this weekend with Netherlands' club - posted before reported anywhere Brittain - just how specific do you want it. Posted he would leave before end of this week Brittain - seems you are suffering from Chaddyitis! I did not guess the wrong club! I did not say he was going to Derby! I posted on Monday morning "I am told Brittain will be gone this week and atm (at the moment), Derby are leading the way" - what part of that do you not understand? Clearly, Middlesbrough armed with the Hackney money changed all that. Just what do you bring to the party?

Isn't Forshaw just part of the coaching staff? Surely not a professional player anymore?

Is he any good?

I would too out n out goalscorer

ffs

How did you forget Forshaw??

Curzon Ashton gave us a pennant at the toss up. We have them nowt.

Baradji is coming in to replace Trav, who will almost certainly be sold if/when a bid comes in for him.

Has he said that? And even if so, progression planning is all well and good on top of fixing holes in the team in the here and now but we badly need attackers now, not next summer. If it is Baradji plus 3 new attackers then great but seemingly it wont be.

I actually don't hate the look of this. Obviously a lot would depend on how the wing backs adapt, they're so crucial in this scenario. Would have looked a damn sight better with Brittain and Beck in there, but there we go. As I said when the link was initially made, Miller makes a lot of sense. Good age, played in a Hibs side that has progressed in recent years, contract running down. £750k looks a decent deal on paper. Like all signings, we won't really know for a good while yet.

More competition for Tronny, who seems to be sitting deep. Important to plan around Tronny leaving next year. He has said he loves life in Blackburn, but wants to move back to Norway for family matters.

Who would be happy with this: GK: Toth/Pears/Michalski RB: Miller/Alebiosu/Montgomery RCB: Carter/Miller/Hyam LCB: Wharton/Mcloughlin/Pickering LB: Ribeiro/Pickering/De Neve LW: De Neve/Kargbo/ DM/CM: 3T/Montgomery RW:Hedges/Ohashi? CAM: Cantwell/Tyjon/Bucko ST:Gueye/Ohashi/Leonard Anyone missing? several players could be used in different positions - quite versatile without square pegs in round holes. Must have: quick, energetic RW. For me that’s all I need. nice to have: another striker

You might be right now I look again, edited my previous post as to not dash any more hopes

Yeah it's just the full training video is available on youtube. The one's posted to social media are just a clip of the training video

You should normally be able to buy a match pass for £10 from there From memory, the option to do so may not appear until about 24 hours before the game

I think in a year or so (when Travis is gone), he will eventually replace him in the midfield 2, but initially he will play further forwards to ge used to playing at a higher level & being much more disciplined than he currently has to be In the meanwhile, his attributes make him look capable of covering an attack minded right back getting forwards, whilst also offering a bit more guile and vision than Hedges Just my hypothesis of course

Thought we'd be the next Derby? Doesn't sound too bad to me.

I am in Spain for the opening match - what options are there for watching the match?

To me that reads as though you can watch the video of them training ahead of the Nijmegen game in full on Rovers' Youtube, not that the game itself will necessarily be live.
