I know...

playing in Belgium Rudy acts like its the only place where players exist

Thanks for the info! Not sure why you are getting pelters! Hopefully this comes to fruition

I noticed, I should have said I knew that.

I've never understood the argument but nobody better will come in so let's just stick with whoever is in charge. Ismael has 1 win in 10, won something like 4 home games in almost 12 months, got us 4pts clear of the relegation zone and we are the 3rd lowest scorers in the league. Whoever the next person is they can't do much worse.

Ormskirk !

I was taking things to extremes to make a point as to the extent of the underspend But if £30M was spent in January last season, where might we be now? Eustace would still be here for a start And if it didn't work out, some of the players bought could have been sold to balance the books

And League One !

someone from Belgium? what are the odds eh?

I hadn’t taken that into account as I’d completely forgot 🤦‍♂️ That being said, I think spending £100m could cause issues as FFP looks forward as well as backwards. I’m pretty confident we won’t get to find that out though 😁

Case number 36 on the list. New courtroom, new judge - exciting times 😁😁

War chest incoming. Nixon article 'Rovers have cash to spend due to FFP wiggle room' Once he browsed on here this evening.

Wasn’t Mike Harrison with some Brazilian girl at the time?

Omg .iv said numerous times I wouldn't be upset if he left I don't think he is a good manager My point is il say again i don't believe a change in manager will change much unless it's someone else other than Gestede and Pasha choosing it. No mental gymnastics going on by me.You seem to think it's Ismael dictating our transfer buisness and now claiming he is trying to placate the fans for a month by pretending he wants 2 forwards.(sorry but that is ridiculous) You also suggest we only had 2 strikers because of Ismael and he should have signed another.Like I said he had 4 forward 2 of which he clearly didn't rate and I agree Gueye is poor and Tyjon isn't ready. I think we will stay up yeah like I said 1 or 2 weeks in the bottom 3 all season with multiple key players injured.

The dreadful standard of the current dross as never been seen before in blue & white shirts !

@K-Hod - I got a couple of family members vouchers for Eight at Gazegill for Christmas, I'll let you know if you've made or ruined their Christmas 🤣

Is that taking into account that transfer fees paid out are split in the accounts over up to 5 years or the length of the players contract (whichever is shorter) If you need to take that into account then they could technically spend circa £100M in January and still be compliant (obviously thy would need to sell a few to balance the books next year) * obviously the most sensible time to do the big spend would have been last year when we were in the top 6 and it had only been 1 year since the Wharton sale & 6 months since the Szmodics sale

There is a fairly pointless article in the LT about how well Cleary did last night despite with quotes from him and Ally McCoist despite the article admitting from the start that we are unlikely to go back for him. Also describes him as a "terrific teenager" before saying that hes 21.

Why did he have so many games when we had a better squad than now ? Think about it. He wasn't in teams because of his goal threat it's not rocket science and i don't remember him being farmed out to china in his prime years either. It's nothing to do with comparing apples and oranges it's to do with rotten apples and rotten apples i.e two very limited forwards and the debate who was the rottenest overall. Championship versus Chinese leagues ? It's not even close and by the way i dread to think of your forward line up if you were manager, sounds like you'd be a one up top 'Gueye' .i just hope you'd have someone else who could actually control a football in the team.

Scott Wharton just recently. Before that, Harry Pickering in December 2023.

I could’ve mentioned the Raya sell on too…

It is pretty widely known there have been a number of approaches to V's over the years about a sale, or part sale, of the club. I cannot recall one 'official' acknowledgement of this so don't hold your breath.

No idea. Scott Wharton? Gallagher?

When was the last first team player to sign a new contract (because they were going to stay and not to help club maintain their value)?
