Glen has huge credit in the tank. Whatever Glen says isnt bullshit

It all sounds plausible, Glen, but you're expecting us to take your word for it given you're the one airing the accusations. I'm just a supporter with zero inside knowledge. People post stories, like this one, online, and I've no idea how true it is. I don't know how you get this information or what puts you in this sort of position to do so, if what you get told is hearsay with added VAT, or if it's wholly accurate. While it certainly fits the narrative of nasty owners and people within the club, I can't just take your word for it. The only thing I can judge the club on is what happens on the pitch. The rest is hearsay.

It’ll be one of the best days ever when these spoons sell up.

Will be starting center half by years end.

Rather amusing story may surface in coming days around Rudy's efforts to sell Pears today, I cant say too much at this point but if you are reading Rudy, yes we do know , its how we roll 😀. Might be worth having a chat with Big Sam 😉

Doesn’t surprise me at all, I said months ago that gestede would be number 1 hated employee and was laughed at, he is an absolute scumbag, another Steve kean who won’t ever get a role as good as this one in his life , how can we get rid. I’m sure he will come in do his damage then sneak away with his bag of swag after we are well down the leagues

Would have been okay with no business in or out today. Wow. How much more do we have to take. Looking forward to someone giving the in and out register in the Summer activity. Thought it was suppose to be an exciting summer. Acheson and Tyjon will be needed

That's frightening. How they're allowed to get away with this is beyond me.

Thanks for your post The above sentence is the most alarming. There are many villains responsible for Rovers' demise over the past 15 years but to say Gestede is the worst of the lot is a truly damning statement of the current shambles at Ewood. The question is, what is he trying to achieve and why? If it's a pure ego trip on his part then he needs to be exposed and forced out. Don't ask me how

VENKYS OUT - NOTHING ELSE MATTERS

It cannot be underestimated how ridiculous it is to go into another long and tough season with only 3 centre backs, including one who is made out of glass and has spent much of the last 2 or 3 years injured, and another who is just back from spending 16 months out injured in what is the second long term injury of his career. Even if the rest of the squad was well rounded, which it isnt, that would undermine us. The contract situation was always going to rule this transfer window and not being able to get one single one sorted in our favour has totally ripped the side apart, stripping it of experience and quality. The one positive is that we have signed players in the main for a few years. The question is, it will be a downgrade on last seasons squad, and on last years manager, but how much? Relegation is a massive possibility. A weak, imbalanced squad full of question marks and totally lacking in know how and experience may fold as the season develops. The defence was really strong last season. Our best back 4 has been taken away as has the man who had us so well drilled. Our attack was poor, we have lost 2 of our better performers there and im unconvinced in the main that weve suitably added goals or speed, we still look slow. And our captain in between that has now gone.

This was never about contracts This is ALL on Rudy gestede, his treatment of staff and players and total arrogance. This started in the last summer when JE invited Weimann to train at Rovers to earn a contract. Gestede hit the roof and wanted him off the training ground. JE convinced Waggott Weimann could do a job, against Gestedes wishes. That was the beginning of the end of JE and Gestedes relationship. The day JE left Weimann was summoned by Gestede and informed his days at Rovers were over. Weimann opted to then have a little op to ensure he could get new club in summer. This was pure spite by Gestede as he didn't forgive JE for bringing Weimann in. Gestede then pushed a number of employees out the door for none performance related issues . One employee due to not covering her arms at the training ground. Ive spoken to a number of employees who have departed and some there, but to protect their identities and in some cases NDAs I wont name them The senior players and sadly Leonard challenged Gestede for dressing down employees and being nasty and in some cases making them cry. Leonard for his part was banished to train with the kids. The rest for none footballing reasons and certainly not for contractual reasons (you actually need to be offered a contract to sign one) have all been dismissed this window (all members of the players council). How anyone can defend the ciub is beyond me. The best thing about x now is no one can see who likes your tweets. My own tweets its rather damning given the amount of players,,relatives and staff are liking what im posting. (As people know I wil never post a thing i can't prove). No Gestede , JE would not have exited thats a fact. These lads not being offered contracts which was RG job, is not an error. It was deliberate to drive them out the club. I believe (my opinion) the damage hes created in one summer is more than any single person has at any time in the last 15 years. This aint a plan of success, this is malicious and been made personal due to people refusing to accept bullying at our training ground Many current staff are walking on egg shells in fear . One significant departed member of staff i spoke to for 2 hours on the phone a couple of weeks ago and it was extremely alarming whats gone down at the training ground. Strangely Suhail is barely mentioned in any if these conversations. Its always Gestede. This aint gonna end well unless that man is removed

Not one player wants to be stay here, every single one of them has jumped at the first opportunity, including ones that have an affiliation with us, this is surely mega alarm bells, we have been infiltrated by snakes , they have taken over. Genuinely can’t see a light at the end of a long dark tunnel , this isn’t fun

Absolute con isn't it? What any real club would do is analyse when we just missed out and plug the gaps. Not demolish the lot and start again! Just a cover for further dumbing down.

Adam Wharton about a month before we sold him.

When the fu*k was the last time we actually renewed a first team player's contract?!

Yes but that pales into insignificance when its not one, two or even three contracts but ALL of them. Not ONE of the first players that we wanted to keep, or the manager wanted to keep, whose deals were coming to an end (this or next summer) did we actually manage to extend the contract of. The only one we have kept is Tronstad who will leave on a free, dont delude yourself into your usual "well he might sign a new deal" crap. Thats Travis, Brittain, Hyam, Dolan, Batth, Weimann, all gone. As I said earlier in the summer and you shot me down for "banging on about it." The contract situation has predictably blown apart the whole transfer window. If its the odd player who wont re-sign, then sell and replace, agreed. But theres a considerable underlying pattern that will sooner rather than later lead to relegation. You are clearly lying when you say we are only short at centre back. You wanted and expected 2 before we had any idea that Hyam was going. Presumably one was an attacker, you also wanted a senior goalkeeper. You clearly wanted and felt that we needed more. Where do you see us finishing now with this squad and this manager? Just a prediction and no cliches or sitting on the fence.

It'd be more self sabotage if he doesn't. Not only is he better (or at least more proven and experienced) than Michalski, but if he isn't even sitting on our bench we drive down the price we can get for him in Jan or the summer.

Just can’t see Josh calling her out if he wasn’t sure.

Not being argumentative at all, yes the Hyam timing could see us short, but the point still stands on all 3.

Whether it was pornhub or Rovers transfer news, Mike was watching a shafting.

Aye, the Hyam one could bite them on the arse, got a feeling Pears wlil come back into the fold

It was porn wasn’t it.

I certainly don’t think the difference between Hyam and whoever fills his slot will be the difference between relegation or not - the difference-making will be at the other end of the pitch. He looked like he never wanted to be here from the off. Given he wanted to go, keeping an even more demotivated Hyam wouldn’t have ended well. I’m far more upset we are relying on one young Icelandic striker.
