Citah have their eye on Livarmento apparently.

I live in Sheffield, so see what he’s like first hand. This is a visual representation of his interactions… 🤣

Yep, not quite sure what he was doing there, seemed to stop 🙈

Very impressed by this team, Elliott is a superstar in the making.

That's awful from Stansfield - an absolute tap in.

Beadle - Brighton Hinshelwood - Brighton Quansah - Liverpool Cresswell - Toulouse Livramento - Newcastle Hutchinson - Ipswich Scott - Bournemouth Anderson - Forest Elliott - Liverpool Mcatee - Man City Stansfield - Birmingham

Harvey Elliott, what a player - wasted at Liverpool. Probably our best player of the last decade but it goes under the radar due to covid

So who do all these players play for at club level? It would be nice to have the TV coverage to tell us!

Come on England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Feeling closer to the players??? Fans have never been further away from players than they are now

And we’re talking decades of it!

It gives a job to the interviewee.

You’re the biggest bullshitter on here when it comes to transfers, but we all love you Mercer. Hope this evenings Red is going down well my friend, let’s hope we pull a rabbit or two out of the hat for this coming season. I’m off to watch Neil Young at Glasto, have a good evening all.

Hard to believe anyone thinks your posts are credible to be quite honest, you’ve posted an insane amount of bullshit and never get anything right 😂

Just watching John Fogerty now at Glasto on BBC 2. Nothing is for ever.

I understand and anyone with an ounce of intelligence should understand other people’s scepticism. See how it works

Still nonethewiser as to what watching the players in the dressing rooms or post substitute interviews add or why a single person would have any interest in either, but there you go.

All i see on this thread 🤣

I’ve got loads of insider info on Rovers’ transfer targets. I’ll tell you about it after the window has shut. Maybe not even then. Sensitivities and all that.

I would suggest you actually look who wants to bring in these things and its from the PL from what I read about it. Yes the great VAR that takes 5 minutes to make a decisions keeping all fans within the stadium in the dark. Wasn't in favour of it in the first place and still ain't

I think its the PL driving these changes and trying to mirror the NBA and NFL sports where this sort of behind of the scenes is all part of this. This is just restrictions to just Sky Games but all games. In Overseas countries they get all games not just the 4/5 games on Tv like we do. Premier League introduce raft of controversial US-style changes including half-time interviews

Even when you are told something in confidence, you can't always 'use' that information at the time owing to obvious sensitivities. I think you will find I only posted about the link to the Plymouth job once Eustace had been appointed Derby manager even though I knew about the link back in January - interestingly, I don't recall one challenge to the post at the time. I have not said "sorry not saying who told me" but did say 'I was not going to name him' for obvious reasons that anyone with an ounce of intelligence should understand!

Football has always been a primary driver of Sky subscriptions - and with those subscriptions falling, I suppose they are trying to come up with increasingly desperate gimmicks to try and boost numbers. I think I read PL viewing figures were down 10% last season. That will largely be due to the fact the title race and relegation spots were basically done and dusted by February, but nonetheless, Sky can't control that. They can just try these little gimmicks to try and make otherwise mundane games more interesting. It won't work, but I'd assume they're just throwing crap at the wall at this point to see if anything sticks. When Sky first brought PL coverage in they had American traditions like cheerleaders (the head-to-head team logo clash graphic was also ripped off from US American Football coverage). They ditched it all very quickly because the UK public weren't partial to any of that nonsense and it was a waste of time and money. I imagine this will go the same way.

Why does football need such drives to increase its popularity? Its financial value is higher than most country's GDP and it is most probably singlehandedly the most popular recreational interest on the planet.

Even beyond an understandable additional skepticism around Rovers, I don't get why you would assume that everything said is 100% accurate. They wouldnt come out and say if they werent aligned. But they said that before the summer had begun, and before any transfers. So obviously at that point they were aligned. Whether they agree on every signing that has since happened and will happen in the future, remains to be seen.
