It’s a difficult one there’s clearly ndas in play for the managers who have moved on - they won’t break those for obvious reasons as for players if the club haven’t did anything ‘wrong’ it’s defamation. Whilst most rovers would agree how the running of our club is pretty much shambolic they haven’t done anything ‘wrong’ cost cutting whilst we hate it and it’s obvious it’s their club they can choose to do that lack of contract offers or reasonable offers again they can choose to do that hiring of staff not qualified for the role again their club their choice even if they brought to light the harsh treatment of valued staff etc like Radcliffe did at United the scrutiny lasts about 2/3 days then forgot about it’s so hard

Congratulations is fine all ‘football friends’ do it regardless of circumstances

I don't see it as an attack on the club, more so the clubs hierarchy Personally I would prefer it if every player who left was more vocal about the shambles of a club we have become, draw some national attention to it, it might force the media, EFL & FA to look at things properly

Yes. Did they congratulate him turning down a new contract though or did they congratulate him on his move with its subsequent wage bump?

It's got EVERYTHING to do with being entitled when it comes to "professional" footballers and their agents.

I'll be be honest I've lost track of this court case (don't fully know how it all works etc. What's the outcome we're hoping for and what can the courts do to them that edge then closer to leaving?

You mean like Dolan, Britain and Tronstad all congratulating Batth turning down a new contract here and announcing he'd signed for Derby.

The only thing I think it is telling about is that Tom Bloxham is very bitter about not making it here and being released. If it came from someone like Sammie Szmodics, Dolan, Baath etc then it would be very telling as you say.

It also got picked up and shared by one of the national football social media groups on Facebook yesterday, which is possibly why Rovers only commented yesterday.

Both can be true I find it hard to accept Tom Bloxham is bitter towards rovers beyond anything other than his own failings produced little to none at youth level over a number of years failed at Harrogate and is yet to be picked up by any club in the football pyramid there’s a lot of obvious failings at the club but I don’t take his comment as telling, if it came from someone with relative success like say gamble who commented above I’d probably read more into it

Seems it was the same last time away at Hull. Such a tinpot way to operate in 2025.

The club is a mess mate nothing to do with being entitled

Congrats Tom you also ‘made it out’ Must be grand plying your trade at the famous ‘without club’

Duru's mam is from Phili and he is eligible to play for the US so perhaps it's something that was always on the cards. No doubt the new regime was only too happy to oblige him in finding something out there.

Fair enough, the club is a shambles but my primative tribal self seeing former kids who haven't made it giving it large about "making it out" of the former premier league champions is thinking... Get to fuck you entitled prick, football owes you NOTHING.

He would have had two assists in 2 games if Palace had a striker that could finish

I couldn't find it @roversfan99 but found in a tweet above.

Was just going to post this. Very telling, Even youth players who haven’t made a name for themselves yet wanting out

Maybe the club shop is shut again or there's another 'staff event' meaning no tickets available tomorrow

The comment in question is Tom Bloxham to Duru on instagram.

Travis is the obvious / already rumoured suspension, but can maybe imagine Pears... depending on insurance/contract stipulations, it can't have gone down well if he's unable to play (or be sold!) due to rumoured (voluntary...) cosmetic surgery... That allrovers account suggesting Crystal Palace is after one of our u21s, who apparently isn't keen to leave. Twitter randos suggesting it's either O'Grady-Macken or Isaac Dunn. A 'promising' young forward is also being threatened with banishment to the u21s if he doesn't go out on loan. Can guess that's Leonard. Sounds odd. Can usually guess there are financial motives with this regime, but perhaps Leonard is refusing to agree to a loan thinking he should be in our first team picture. While I'm at it with chasing silly rumours (work procrastination babyyyyy), Tom Bloxham (still unattached) commented "Made it out *heart eyes emoji*" on Duru's Insta post about his move to San Diego. (Further insta creeping: Duru went to Ibiza with Georgie Gent and Bloxham this past summer, oooo) Huh. Dan Diego's the same pseudonym I use when I procure prostitutes..

Who was this and who did it relate to?

Don’t know that I agree with the lack of assists. It’s not always the final pass/cross that makes a goal but that’s who gets the credit for the ‘assist’

..or Blackburn, for that matter.

What did everyone make of the new flag? Thought it would be bigger to be honest also thought is was gonna go up to the top and then get rolled up at the beginning 🤣
