Always got the feeling he preferred JDT to Eustace though. One of very few it seems.

David Crosby - I Won’t Stay For Long

Best season of Szmodics' career. I imagine there would be pull to working with Eustace again. I also doubt Derby can afford it though.

The problem is we need to see actions, not words. If Suhail did an interview tomorrow and said “We are now absolutely going to start respecting the legacy of Jack Walker”, you’d be on here telling us all is good as that’s what they are going to do. Speak to everyone on the fans forum. Speak to WATR. They lie to you. They control the information they give to you. They try and mould your opinion.

Tbh, this makes it feel more believable because I don’t think Rovers give anything away and it’s often the players side in the country of origin who give the game away and then it’s a case of Elliott trying to get a comment from the club.

It happened on a Friday so plenty of time since. But I think they have done before.

He said it in the extended BBC Lancashire interview post match on BBC sounds. And you are skirting around the fact that only one player has signed a new deal in 2 years. Im guessing you think thats acceptable. These new signings come from lesser leagues where wages are far lower. Doesnt explain why there is no article about a new signing 2 days on or why the articles are full of errors. They also employ other journalists for when he isnt working.

Completely agree. Fwiw I think there’s a potentially very good player in Henriksson. Needs a bit of time to bed in but I think he’ll come good. I think Eustace is very popular amongst ‘the lads’ and I mean the English lads who have a code of conduct. Ie - if someone plays well they get a new deal at this point. The old boys code. Fwiw, old John must’ve been having kittens last summer with this lot throwing random Belgian lower division players at him! 🙈🤣

Do they publish on a Sunday?

local media? you mean Elliott Jackson? He wasn't at Hull away as he was at wedding and given that he won't run a story until he has source or someone has confirm it to him from Rovers end. what other local media is there?

Just that he had that really strong season or so with us. Before that did fine for Peterborough and last season, obviously in a league above, grabbed a couple of goals but struggled, as did the rest of his team. I’m sure he’ll grab a few goals this season but it won’t be anywhere near what he did for us and he’s not exactly young in footballing terms so I feel like he won’t be a starter by the end of this season. Could be wrong of course, just a feeling.

I think they do. Doesnt explain the lack of article about a new signing though!

where did Ismael say Travis let the team down? I have asked you twice about this in all fairness. What we don't know is what has happened since that League cup game cos clearly something has behind the scenes. We don't know who is behind this anonymous twitter account but they know alot of stuff, I think you are far too obsess about it and giving it far too much air time and thinking fans opinions are changed by it. I have expressed the type of communication I want to see like interviews with the CEO on local media and Rovers TV every few months explaining decisions made by Rovers or what the plan is. maybe answering Q and A with someone like Andy Bayes where fans have sent in questions to him for example so if we aren't competitive wages how are we making so many signings? so you think we should agree to Travis's wage demands for example without thinking about the wage budget. Good to know but then in the next minute you are complaining about the cost of ST or players wages or TV deals going on wages. You have wage budget and you have to not over paid but also if player x get 30k a week deal then what happens when player y or player d asking for the same or player F wants his wages doubling. what happens then with wages and then your wage bill is over 150% plus to turnover

I'm sure the LET hear all the rumours, but they have to have some firm evidence before publishing.

Video of Morishita Can't quite tell what position he plays, seems to find himself in a lot of space and be technically very sound. May link up well with Cantwell and Henriksson (if he gets up to speed)

They've been pretty late to others like hendrikson. Heard it hear well before the let.

The Japanese winger news doesnt seem to have been picked up by local media yet. The LT hasnt even written a story confirming a signing we made 2 days ago. On top of the constant errors throughout each article, it really is poor. I wouldnt be surprised if this winger is our last signing, unless someone like Hyam goes. The likes of Buckley, Pears and Leonard, they may justify as not being first teamers anyway. And Travis replaced by Baradji.

What do you mean he's had his year?

‘More Shit’ signings? I’d be quite excited about this one though

Thanks for @glen9mullan and @KidderStreetNoise for the podcast. Good insightful into what happened around the minutes and what happened in the meeting. so thanks guys for taking your free time to do the podcast.

Im not on about rumours. Im saying that we have said publically that Travis has let the team down but not remotely said how he has done so. If the manager is going to say that, at least be specific. Do you think that leaking information through an anonymous twitter account and altering minutes from meetings with fans are examples of good communication? And on the wages thing, come on chaddy. Why havent any players signed new deals (bar Ribeiro) in 2 years now? We clearly arent offering competitive wages and you are just being awkward for the sake of it. If thats not a problem then I dont know what is.

Always liked Kendal Calling, but not been for 20yrs, I would imagine it’s change a bit since then. We’ve got Oasis a week today and after all the hype I’m really ‘Mad Fer It’. Last gig of the summer for us and going out with a bang.

How anyone can possibly say anything other than "Manchester United" to that is a complete mystery to me!

Eustace is obviously a good man manager who likes to keep it simple and drill the basics into his players and probably doesn't ask too much of them. They'll love that.

Eustace must have personality behind the scenes he doesn’t show as I don’t know why there’s such a love for him from players. He comes across really bland and a bit vacuous to me. Mind you that probably describes a lot of footballers too.
