  1. Past hour
  2. I think you've misremembered the last two seasons. Last season was a good one (minus our ritual January seppuku), but the season before we were a gnat's pube away from relegation. It's the season before that where we came close again.
  3. The first thing to say is that Brighton were excellent. They were quicker in movement and mind, stronger and certainly more skilful. Ordinarily that would tell the story of a 4-0 defeat but the truth is not one Rovers player (except Batty who was ok) comes out with any credit. We lacked cohesion, application and at times attitude. It was certainly the most inept I have seen our under 21's for a long time and baffling after a decent performance on Monday against Everton although there were some changes. We ended up with Wood as a central striker and Strich just behind him so the absolute dearth of strikers doesn't just apply to the first team. Hopefully the under 18 boys can smash the Dingles today and restore some pride to the Academy.
  4. That was a purchase dressed up as a loan. The purchase was guaranteed from the start. If I'm remembering rightly it was only a loan initially due to the loan window being open longer than the transfer window at that time. If I'm misremembering then it was probably just to push the accounting further down the line, but it was definitely not an option to purchase but an obligation. Can only imagine how much flak they'd have got if we saw him be worthless for half a season then spent 7 mill on him anyway without being forced to.
  5. So every year much of this thread is full of angry posts about Chaddy being delusional and the fact we're going to be relegated. For the last two years technically Chaddy was right to have hopes of optimism and a good season. If it happens a third time in a row does that make Chaddy right and the rest of the yearly doom mongers and chaddy haters delusional? 🤣
  6. It's make perfect sense and I did called Cantwell would be named captain before last week game. People ridiculed me. Well I got it right didn't I. Giving Cantwell extra responsibility will help his game just like Neil Warnock did with Abel Tarabat at QPR
  7. What, that you just accept everything that they come out with at Ewood without engaging your own brain and thinking about things for a few minutes? Yep no surprise at all.
  8. No I don't. Were you born yesterday?
  9. This guy is a big problem no doubt, and there are dots being joined about his involvement and agenda, but it all starts and ends with Venkys. No more of this that they are fine in the background but are being misled/taken advantage of/will learn from mistakes. They are poison as much or more than those they employ to do their dirty work. They will only leave when they have to. Hopefully - long shot - their legal issues and restrictions eventually break them or their business collapses into dust and then we are freed from their occupation but I'm not confident of that. It may be a waiting game and may take many years for the evil four to give up or for control of their business to pass to others. Hopefully then there's a change. It might take decades but so be it. This club will never achieve its potential or grow/improve under their occupation.
  10. He told the media why Cantwell was appointed captain today or dont you believe him
  11. No he has signed scholarship here
  12. Cantwell is getting the captaincy partly because he's one of the few remaining experienced players that have a clue about the Championship and partly because 'they' know that this is one way of injecting additional value into him ahead of January/Summer 2026 when 'they' turn their attentions on the next round of sales of which he will be top of the list once Hyam and Tronstad have been dealt with. I suspect Ismael has had zero choice in this matter, it has been imposed on him from upstairs.
  13. So you sack Potter as you want, then which players do sign given you dont who the head coach. Yet we were better team last week until the penalty incident where Birmingham created feck all. Goals change games
  14. Must mean the signings are all clueless twats.
  15. From what I've seen Goddard lacks height but is good with his feet. Barrat is decent with feet poor on crosses but is too old for 21s and should be on loan. Honor is huge and has presence. Was apparently fantastic on loan last season and had more impact than Michalski in the same league but same as the others there is no clear plan.
  16. Taking it Higgins has left? Don't think he's been in any squad.
  17. Today
  18. The reason we haven't signed any contracts is because after the "press send" fiasco of the previous winter transfer windows, we've decided to revert to older technology that's more reliable. We're currently in the process of identifying an ink supplier for the recently delivered quills.
  19. I Wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire.
  20. Tom Cairney I think? Might be wrong but think it was a loan that turned into a buy. Majority of loans are ones the parent club are just developing so there isnt an option.
  21. I did. And to be fair, Morris has started well. The other 5 players I named arent fit, there is also their other striker Salvesen. Plus they have signings to come. So I suspect things will look different soon. They have a very good manager who should still be managing us if we had competent owners and a competent board and instead, we have a far inferior replacement.
  22. I don't think we've ever turned a loan with a view to buy into an actual buy? Under Venkys.
  23. Are you okay? It's because the club is toxic. It's because we don't offer competitive wages. Oh yeah purely down to Eustace factor. Fucking hell
