2025 Summer Transfer Thread. π

Feel sorry for Travis after reading that. Loyal servant. But if Derby are offering life changing money to him, then they shouldn't chuck Β£1.5m at Rovers. -

2025 Summer Transfer Thread. π
JHRover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Comedy stuff from Jackson again today. So Travis wants to do Rovers a favour by going now rather than next summer so that we receive a fee? Jackson reckons Ismael is open, honest and 'an open book' - says who? Who gives Ismael his information? That's right, the liars upstairs. Unsurprisingly that ridiculous claim/admission from Ismael - unnecessary and unprompted - has gone down badly with Travis - it has made his future untenable which is EXACTLY what the the regime have wanted - they want him gone and they want the blame piling on the player and Derby and not themselves. I am however glad that Jackson is acknowledging for the first time that the 'party line' from Rovers - that they've made him a good offer to commit - might not actually be the truth and that other parties suggest there has never been a formal offer made (which is what I believe and the evidence seems to suggest). Jackson thinks that the above becomes 'a debate over semantics' - I disagree. If the truth of the matter is - as I suspect - that the player hasn't even been given a proper offer to stay - then this needs making clear to the paying public and the deluded brigade need to swallow their medicine and learn their lessons not to trust a word this regime comes out with ever again. The money offered by Derby described as 'life changing' by both sides - if you want a sentence that displays what these people have done to this club then there it is. Of course this suits Rovers again because they can make out like we were never in any position to keep him up against such 'resources' (actually Derby aren't wealthy and have brought in less than we have in the last 3-4 years). That is a lie because they could have made offers during last season and didn't, which is why Travis confirmed this publicly in March and why Eustace walked out. Ismael is either an idiot or is complicit in the shenanigans for his comments after the last two games. -

Anyone wanting Rovers to lose a game needs to go and play on the M6, end of, unless it means the inbreds down the road being negatively impacted, and even that is hard! It is a horrible, horrible waiting game for us to be rid of these owners, but have to cling on to the hope that one day they will be gone, and we hopefully are able to move forward. So, come Saturday, when "Big" club roll in to town and the referee blows his whistle, I don't give a dam about anything else but Rovers trying to win a game and send them packing. Rovers to win 5-1, courtesy of 5 different scorers being Captain Dom, useless Hedges, couldn't hit a barn door Gueye, uninterested Tronstaad and "big" club keeper palming a long throw in to his own goal. -

I am so tired of this football club. Gaslighting and throwing our own players under the bus. Travis is no footballing superstar but the treatment of him by the club is ghastly. Chaos behind the scenes. -

As is always the case, how much you spend is only part of the equation. Ensuring the signings integrate into (and improve) the team is at least as important. -

Ah yes, that well known tactic of going 1-0 and then sitting back. That's never bitten a team in the rear. The fact of the matter is, there was v. little between us and WBA last week. This talk of them "ripping us apart" or "being happy to sit back and see out the game" are just silly. Look, I'm as negative as the next fan (moreso when it comes to our owners), but it's not as doom and gloom on the pitch as many are making out. Barring a rash of injuries I think we'll just about be ok this season - I'd be more confident in saying that if we sign an actual RW. I'm very bleak about our long term prospects, but I try not to worry about that too much. -

I think it needs someone to come in and agree to keep the audit of their finances hush-hush. Takes a brave investor to do that - and I'm also not sure how legal that is! Failing that, yes we're looking to the Indian Govt to force them to sell. It's a ridiculous situation. -

You're right, they probably could have brought in 2 or 3 really good overseas players for Β£10m and really bolstered their squad and looked towards the playoffs, big outlay for one player for them. Our scouring the foreign markets is completely different though, sadly. Wrexham could have picked up several players for Β£2-3m, we're looking to pick up players for Β£200-300k. That's why they'll finish way ahead of us this year. π -

DE. replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Hedges' deficiencies are less obvious when he's got a decent team around him, simply because he works hard and therefore looks like he's contributing. When he's increasingly surrounded by limited players then it becomes more obvious that he's not much use. He was brought in initially as a cheap option to come off the bench. The fact he's now a starter is emblematic of our on pitch decline. -
