I think it is lazy scouting, watched by video , how many games did he complete last season? Another if he is any good, why as he ended up here? Agents at play if you ask me...

Yes a lot of reason for the loses was piling debt upon debt with stupid decisions then paying it off on tick. This idea that they've 'invested' 20 million a year just to run the club is bollocks a massive amount of it has been pay offs it certainly hasn't been invested in the playing squad. I bet they are still paying some off from years ago.

do we actually know that? He has only 12 months left on contract now so their asking price is reducing based on that Who are the others? Nicko seem to think this has a good chance of happening and he fits the bill for the type of centre back we want. Another money signing possible and they seem to be backing Ismael with some money. why would you been spending that much on Coborn?

He was never making Liverpool first team squad and Rangers now in for him

Sheffield Wednesday are in a real mess. Rohl wants out and been like that for months now.

decent enough first game and not a long travel for fans, a couple of hours. This happens every year, you either have the game at home before Christmas and New Year day or you have Boxing day game and the game between Christmas and New Year. Been like that for a while very interesting game for the anniversary game. One to look to with former Rovers head coach in the dugout and some former Rovers players on their team

For every striker who has underwhelmed in the Championship before ending up a Champions League club a year later, I suspect that quite a lot more do not have the same progression.

Definitely his push day

Stansfield did very well as lone striker in his season at Birmingham in the championship and if you look at Liam Delap he wasn't ripping up the championship before his move to Ipswich after their promotion. One good season at PL and now at Chelsea

In my opinion, which-ever team defends the better will win on Saturday.

Do you have a warm up regime for wiping your arse ?

100% a combination of that along with not having done too much over the summer etc it’s just unfortunate…not great for us mind you but don’t think there’s a big conspiracy behind it

Aerobic testing normally happens in the early days so they have something to compare to mid pre season and then again I’d assume right at the start of the season its just unlucky

Especially if you're pushing yourself to impress your new boss and teammates.

No it isn't. You're thinking of the last week of the window.

Leicester st home on the last day. Remember two seasons ago when we avoided the drop with a totally unexpected away win at Leicester. Rolls reversed this season then, they win at Ewood and avoid the drop but we go on and get promotion. Well you have to dream positively!

My sympathies. As a lay person I still maintain that if he didn't have any underlying problem when he came, everyone was screened for potential issues before the start of pre season and they're warming up properly, no-one should be breaking down as early as day 2 or 3. I assume they're not being flogged to death at that point or shouldn't be.

I think that this fact tends to get lost on a lot of people. We lose that amount of money because of the model/running of the club. A semi-competent ownership and/or UK SLT and it's a different story altogether.

Nah. He's in the right place where he is -as he's proving.

In fairness injuries can just be bad luck. I lift a lot of weight, 5 or 6 times a week, heavy weights. I pulled a muscle wiping my arse last year 🤣

When we sign a player it's always a 'undisclosed fee', yet for a failed bid it's mentioned as 1.7m 🤣 Even if we had put a bid in it would be for 200k with 1.5m in add ons for promotion etc. The worst thing is, some people actually fall for it, just seen a twitter post saying we're and I quote "throwing money about this summer". Blows my mind that after all these years there's still people that lap it up....

Hindsight mate, easy to say now

Odds on Leicester being a deal breaker for either avoiding the drop or scraping a top 6 finish?

WE HAVE A WINNER

BRADFORD CITY Did anyone have Bradford?
