I also moan about the horrendous way in which the club is run regularly, because it is warranted. So to clarify, you have no problem with us signing him (a replacement for our captain) despite a long term injury, because they explained as such when he signed?

Much higher up? As sky-high as Rudy and Suhail? F**k sake. They even set up an unofficial Twitter account from inside the club to control the narrative during the summer. Wake up!

Big Val with contacts in Switzerland, presumably his Zurich bank manager.

Wasting time and money on a midfielder is all well and good when you have a strong squad and he's just there to fill a gap especially when you look at rovers desperate situation now, you can't say its Been a good signing in the current circumstances

but Ismael hasn't made this question has he? that decision would be much higher the food chain

It’s simply indefensible that signing and I find it hard to believe a Rovers fan wants to defend this crazy signing.

Forshaw playing tonight.

Read Ismael's comments over the player, similar to why he wanted Morishita. Ismael probably has contacts to people in Switzerland. like I said when it doesn't suit your opinion so you knew about the plan and how long he would be out but weekly you have a rant about it. we knew the situation when he signed and I don't see the criticise at this stage as this was plan all the time Embarrassing

It’s bonkers. And for all the quotes of “he should return after the international break” which Chaddy kept quoting, it’s suddenly turned to “longer term”. So either they didn’t understand the severity of the injury. Or, get this, they lied to us.

Is Ismael aligned with the club line, or not?

great news that

Again, the same points. What makes you so insistent that Ismael has specifically picked this bloke out from a relegated Swiss team as the specific player he wants? You cant possibly know that. But either way, thinking that the manager should pick which players he was doesnt mean that I have to agree with every individual player. Signing a player you know is out for months is an absolutely ridiculous move, whoever has decided it. I know they knew about the injury, I know that we were told about the injury, it doesnt mean that it any less ridiculous. Its only you that cant bring yourself to criticise it. You seem to think that because they knew he was injured, and because they told us, the deal is immune to criticism. If they knowingly signed a 60 year old and told us that they were doing so, that wouldnt be normal either.

What will you say, if never kicks a ball for the Rovers? Personally, I think it is an agents signing..

Has he made the decision to banned them or is a higher up the food chain decision? Yes Andy Bayes from BBC Radio Lancs did

Finally got a first team player on a new contract

I judge a signing on what he does on the pitch. We knew he wouldn't be fit to play when we signed him and its would be 2 or 3 before he played here, yet some of us get yourself in twist over it when it was clear what the plan was for this signing injury wise and operational wise Ismael wanted him and Rovers signed him, I thought you wanted the head coach in charge of signings or is that when it suits RF99's opinion? We knew what the plan was Baradji signed and it would be 2/3 months after the operation he wouldn't be available, so I don't why you expect anything but this, when the plan was clear.

Yeah, tbf to the interviewer he asked for clarity.

U21s play away at Stoke this eve score/updates

Yes, since Ismael is now showing such a heartfelt commitment to social issues, perhaps it’s about time he champions the importance of a free press.

We aren't his time at Spurs but at Forest. Of course changing formation is a plan B. 2 very different style of managerial style so you would expect a period of difficult there. But something clearly kick off behind the scenes for Nuno to leave BORING!!! I have explained this but as always you enjoyed bring in up like a broken record!

I know we did. Which makes the deal an absolutely stupid one to do. Im guessing based on the above that you dont agree that signing a player with a long term injury in an area where we have lost our captain is stupid?

Must be getting into the realms of the outfall being submerged by now?

"Oh ye of little faith," Merce. Maybe baby steps but i saw groundsman yesterday pm using a machine that appeared to be punching deepish holes in the playing surface every metre or so presumably intending/hoping to avoid the pools that formed during the deluge in the Ipswich game.

Just saw this on twitter
