What? Thats like saying if a manager knows that he has £100k transfer budget, how could he be mad that he doesnt have more when he knew they only had £100k. He has no control over budget. Purely from his perspective, his squad is being made massively weaker because we lack the willingness to finance and the proactivity to offer proper contracts. So we sign inferior crap. If hes on board and fully aligned then hes an idiot.

he was ok was tony,risk averse with his team shapes but a decent coach and top bloke definately not even remotely the worst venky crime by any means

leonard is cooked,he`ll never have a consistent run because he`s always injured,shame,.because it think he`s a tidy player who can certainly finish i thought tyjon did ok on tuesday,he was up against uncompromising players,he does need to bulk up,if he does there is definately a player there

This. "Historic failures" my arse. Same owners, same COO. The only thing that you could possibly say is that it was solely because Waggott was refusing to extend any contracts which I could run with to an extent, but, even if that were the case then following his departure they COULD have rectified these "historic failures" instantly by sorting out the contracts of Dolan/Brittain/Travis/Tronstad/Hyam etc. They dont or didn't want to. End of story.

If Ismael knows how much the club is willing to offer players going forward, why would he be annoyed at the club not offering more to keep them?

Tyjon and Leonard would get the absolute shit kicked out of them playing as a 9 in the Championship.

Perhaps JDT, via Broughton, was instructed that Travis was a 'problem' due to his 'high earner' status and that he would need removing from the team/squad to free up cash. The Ipswich scheme failed because they had little use for him when getting automatic promotion and then he came back just as someone else (Waggott apparently) had appointed Eustace who immediately recognised the value of him and made him central to his plans, together with bringing in other established Championship players. None of those things fit the 'model' the Regime have had in mind for the last 3-4 years so they were more than happy to get Eustace out, grab the compo and find a coach willing to oversee their plans.

No chance how could we possibly start negotiations now when we won't know what division we will be in until the end of the 26/27 season ?

It would be another "exciting opportunity" no doubt.

In terms of things that angered me under Venky’s, I’m not sure Mowbray even makes the top 20.

How could anyone have seen if he had potential to be any good ?🤣

Conversely:- I agree with most of the posts re the dire situation we find ourselves in (on and off the pitch) but... ...this is footy. Just like Rovers to eke out a win or draw. Cue all the 'new regime' apologists to lord it for a bit -you know how it goes: -time to bed in, new project, totally new personnel etc etc And, although sharing the general gloom (who wouldn't given the last 14 years), 10 games is time for a fair assessment. Venkys out obvs.

I dont know why you keep saying "historic failures" when the same idiots are running things. If Ismael is genuinely happy to see all of our proven Championship quality leave and be replaced by whatever we can pluck from random leagues for under a milion, then he is a bit thick. But more importantly, the removal of quality from our squad becomes more important than whether Ismael is "aligned" with the idea. With Hyam for example, it isnt historic. We are just choosing not to offer a proper contract. If we did he seemingly would sign.

jackson writes what he`s told to write,if venkys put out a statement that they are demolishing ewood park ,he would`nt question why

In fairness Rev, there are a lot of supporters who think that Mowbray did a more than decent job. Personally, I thought he brought a period of much needed stability to the club and did a sound job for us.

Before they fell out for whatever reason Travis did have a good first season under JDT.

He’s only been in the country just over a week, give the lad time to unpack his bag ffs

Or he's pissed off that his captain has come to him and asked to leave and he's not going to shield him from any blame.

Absolutely no fucking chance. Just posts pro Rovers stiff, with absolutely nothing against them. Pointless. His reply earlier "I just post the facts" Why aren't you investigating posting interesting articles about the regime, about Gestede sayings out of contract players means excitement? Sasha pasha Suhail Sheikh the shadow man.

If you read the article, it says different people will receive these caps throughout the season.

Is our local journalist going to ask the club if they plan on spending a few million each on some good individual players like other clubs do ?

not sure where you`ve got that one from,jdt dropped him and preferred sonny and adam wharton ,then loaned him out to ipswich🙂

Not sure how old you are but the Club didn't start when Jack Walker took over. We've had managers prior to that who've had to work in far more restricted financial circumstances than VI.

I also think that Travis loved playing under JDT. As I have said in other posts. The best we have seen of Trav was under JDT. He played with his heart on his sleeve and I guess he felt that himself.

I beg to differ, they will spank us.
