Rhodes ? He’s already here.

Step forward David Lowe... 👀

All nigh intensity stuff. We’re going to need more physio’s.

Howard Tate - Ain’t Nobody Home

Does look bloody good but last time went there found it expensive and small portions

What Is Love, Howard Jones

I’m still waiting. Not much to expect it 24 hrs before Ko. I can just see this system going tits up one day. Will my ST card still work if I bring it as backup?

Wouldn't worry too much about our last game, something of a freak result. They had a comedy goalkeeper devoid of confidence and on the day ability and a manager so under fire you wonder just how longer he can remain in the job. We played well for once and on the day it all came together, can't hide from the fact (we were helped that) the opposition were so poor and just came apart the further we went ahead. Games before that for us were by and large disappointing. Couldn't win a game from 4 attempts and went out League Cup to Bromley, how embarrassing is that. We have lots of new players come in during the window but McKenna's system simply can't accommodate them or they'll be left on the bench with not all being able to feature even from a subs role. the relegation from the premier league hit us hard, we've sold out many of our most pivotal players since then including Delap, Broadhead and Hutchinson and brought in instead a number of unknowns who have yet to really establish themselves or make an impact on the Championship league. Would want to win tomorrow obviously but there's too many factors holding us back or that makes me doubtful. A draw up there would be satisfactory but we really need to be looking to win as we've lost a lot of ground on the promotion places even at such an early stage of a season such has been our poor start.

Which player from the Rudy era will join as under 21 manager? Craig Conway perhaps

I hope this leads to a more progressive and capable coach coming in. The U21s have been poor this season and majority of last. With the investment Category 1 requires, it needs a top coach.

Anyone still waiting for tomorrow’s digital ticket to land in Inbox? Did someone forget to press “send”?

I heard 'Sonny' shouted several times.

In truth the under 21's have been disappointing this season and having seen them live several times so far he seemed to have been a bit subdued in the technical area. Probably the right decision although in fairness we don't know the circumstances.

Good luck to him in the future but was increasingly thinking he was a dinosaur failing to achieve whatever the remit was at his level

Yes. Even Forshaw is training.

Mike Sheron to leave Rovers

Holly Tree chippy just near the Tesco on Livesey Branch. It's got me wanting one now! 😆 This will get your chops watering:

You may be right, hope so

Is he stood next to Dean Whitehead, about 10 seconds in?

I'm not sure it's ever happened at any club tbh. Let alone the day before a game (when weather reports would also be most accurate). But it's an interesting idea. Do the authorities even allow it at such short notice?

It might happen at a club that gives a shit about the fans.

Can anyone spot Tronstad here?

Not sure if this was mentioned anywhere, but Jack Vale has found a new club in League 1

One more question - can we buy on the day to see how the weather develops? Ive noticed the forecasts seem increasingly pessimistic in recent years and then it turns out a bit better. I checked the website and it doesn't say https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2025/september/17/ticket-news--rovers-v-ipswich-town/

I wonder if in this day and age the clubs should be able to move the game by a day if the weather looks truely horrific and give everyone a better chance of seeing it. Could be better to move it to Sunday especially with away fans travelling 8+ hours. But i guess a logistical nightmare rearranging staff,police etc.
