fixed that for you.

If he can't seemingly motivate himself to play for us, I fail to see how he will do so for Wigan, or any league 1 club tbh! I've posted it many times before but he's one of the strangest players I can remember for us.

both of them need to **** off.pears is`nt very good and buckley has all the talent but no application,provided we can get some more players in to replace them ,im`e not so bothered about those two leaving

Did you watch the game? De Neve was dreadful, its as simple as that. As fans we can only judge him on the brief glimpses we've seen. Was he really the best thing since sliced bread after a tap in? 😳 If people are exaggerating his poor performance today, you're most certainly doing the same for the Everton game.

I would suggest the best way to describe him - based on the majority of his performances for us - would be 'a giant number 2'.

Well done fellas but how the fuck did you not get Paul Dickov? 😉😘

Well, he usually is

Pears doesn’t want to be a number 2. Val prefers Toth (rightly so). Probably too early for Michalski to be number two. Needs to be playing regularly for his development.

No Buckley surely means baradji is all but a done deal

If we move Pears and Buckley that just creates more holes in the squad. I'd prefer to keep them around than have more youngsters or cheap replacements.

Some comments are taking it out on the players, useless de neve, he was the best thing since sliced bread when he scored the winner against Everton. Give them some slack, and let's see them in action when the Championship starts.

Looks to me like the Dutch had it planned out no Rovers supporters allowed, and no overnight stay for the Rovers team.

If it had been at Ewood it would have been 4-0 to rovers. The Dutch would have been knackered before a ball was kicked, and outsung if they weren't allowed in.

Rangers playing catch-up already and Celtic haven’t even kicked a fucking ball yet.

Who could have possibly predicted such as strange occurrence?

Early days but it looks like Martin’s ego is exceeding his players’ abilities again.

Their forum makes amusing reading, Apparently he played Rothwell as the deepest of his midfield 3, and a right back (Max Aarons) at left back I have no dog in the whole Rangers/Celtic thing, but I vehemently dislike Russell Martin, so for as long as he is there, I wish them nothing but disaster & disappointment

Apparently they've faced 51 shots in 3 games. Can't see this ending well

Brad Lyons - Kilmarnock. Ex rovers. Has come on leaps and bounds. I wonder if we had a buy back/sell on Clause? Could provide really good cover both in defence and central midfield. Be a neat addition... Christ we are scraping the bread bin aren't we at this stage..

I just did, see above.

I would suggest you read Ismael's post match comments about Pears and Buckley. https://x.com/_ElliottJackson/status/1951692224795664426

You need ti get 3 a time in then usually one turns out quite good, one flatters to deceive and the other is useless. We wait with baited breath to see what this season brings but i really fear there'll be nowt decent this time because they don't want to pay the wages anymore.

I laughed tonight when I saw Russell Martin's interview after Rangers had drawn against Motherwell. He actually said some of the Rangers players have to drop their egos........as he ran his fingers through his dyed hair and stroked his beard. Rangers were booed off by their fans who clearly aren't liking his Primark Pep style of football.

Well they're clearly wrong about the hip injury. If he's not the hair transplant problem guy after wearing a cap all summer, I'll show my arse in the mall. You've got more chance of persuading me Trump isn't on the Epstein list. The manager talking like that about his future is interesting though. Doesn't necessarily mean he is third choice though, could just be unhappy being second choice after being number one for most of the last two seasons. I'd be very surprised if a kid with minimal experience is suddenly ahead of him. I certainly won't be sad if we can get a reasonable price and a better replacement though. Wouldn't be happy going into the season with Michalski as the cover yet. Toth needs proper competition.

what a complete and utter over reaction to one pre season game. Shame you didn't watch the pre season game against Everton, would have the opposite view to today. You predict the same thing last season so maybe hold off on the prediction for one.
