A pattern emerges of not getting business done when needed. I very much doubt that's because we 'couldn't convince' a player to join us and is more likely because the owners and their henchman refused to sanction the outlay. In doing so it probably cost them millions and millions. JDT will have learned one thing from his time at Rovers. Never, ever trust a Venky.

Norwich drew with them, earlier in the season.

U21s are away at Preston tomorrow afternoon Haven't seen anything about this from Rovers, but the below is on the Preston site https://www.pnefc.net/news/2025/october/13/central-league-cup-continues-tuesday/

He needs to be club management but willing to be more adaptable in tactical

Not everything is about Rovers. He is young English coach and he has took his first move in management so I hope he does well there and develop into a good one

I know l, atleast we know we can draw against them. Positive if anything even though not at full strength

Given Waggott left around 5 months but according to companies house he is CEO here. I would have expected announcement by now

Never played for Rovers either or has any affiliation. odd one.

He will have to learnt to not take jobs with dreadful owners.

Only local team with enough available first teamers to give us a good run out. pointless playing a team in the same league or lower. only play the game at 80% of our capacity

Yeah I dont get why such an appointment would provoke a response of anything but total ambivalence.

Not to be a mardy prick, but why good luck? Good luck to every manager who picks up a new role and if/when they get fired I wish relegation upon their respective club.

I get that but why them shit heads

Theyll have Wissa back by then. But Osula was meant to be going to the Bundesliga in the summer. No way is he coming here.

You seem quite fixated on this. It will be hard to find someone willing to do the job with absolutely no power with dickhead Suhail calling the shots.

and their only striking option if Woltemade gets injured making this impossible.

That theory left Ewood a long time ago.

any more news on the Rovers CEO appointment yet?

Wood goal for Warrington Ryland's, it should play at the right point, but full highlights also there should you wish

Tyjon is not ready for championship football, he is one for the future, whether that is at the Rovers or elsewhere time will tell.

goals, both penalties

Rovers not signing being able to convince Denis Undav to join us in January or even having a Plan B option meant we didn't get the playoff place or even better in JDT's first season. Understand think JDT learnt alot about English football but more importantly Rovers

Good luck to Jack there

The time for JDT has been and gone. When he was here we had the foundation of a strong Championship squad and on top of that invested sensibly and effectively in people like Szmodics, Brittain and Hyam. The combination of Mowbray's left over squad, those good signings, JDT's impact / ambition and the Adam Wharton emergence - the stars aligned at the right time and we could have done it. Some prefer to convince themselves that we will never get promoted or close to it because of crowds, money, excuses but even under these wretched owners we ended up in a position to take that step under JDT. Engaged owners with some ambition would have backed him 'heavily' in his first January - instead they borrowed Sorba Thomas from Huddersfield. Nowadays it wouldn't work as well - they've gutted the squad of the quality it once had and are ensuring the prospects even of repeating signings like Szmodics and Brittain are remote. I think JDT struggled at times here because he was just on a totally different wavelength footballing wise to most of the players who had enjoyed the happy camp under Mowbray for years. Nowadays that would be even more extreme - I doubt any of them are capable of performing in the way he wants.

It'll be normalised pretty soon. It really is the long death of locally supported teams.
