Water off a duck's back. I like that the point I made in my initial post has been proven by subsequent posts by the two in question. It was a lot of work putting that together, the only reason I haven't kept it up to date is that I haven't got the time. I had to read all of that stuff a few times to get my head around it, @wilsdenrover has a far better grasp of that stuff than I do and was a huge help for which I am grateful. When you look at the facts of the situation you can clearly see that they can't just send money willy nilly like they used to. The amounts they have been given permission to send have been minimal and there's been a bit of a fight to be able to send it. It's amazing the levels of double think that goes on with the organisation. Can't send money over due to the investigation yet simultaneously claiming that there's no issues with sending money. Why anyone would believe a word that comes from them is beyond me.

Or he's unhappy at the 10k wage cap.

No! I actually don’t think we’re that good. Which tells you how crap I think Dolan is. But I still genuinely believe we won’t struggle to find a player who positively effects the game as much as he….

Great win. We played and missed at a few but you make your own luck sometimes

5 day test cricket. It’s the tops. How much improved is test cricket now since, limited overs cricket arrived onto the scene? The modern cricketer has skills and ability far beyond the guys of 50 years ago. They’re incredible.

QPR have confirmed that Cifuentes has left and are expected to appoint Julien Stephan, former Rennes and Strasbourg manager

venkys will sell anyone for a quick rupee

I don't think he'll go this season

More deceived than flattered. Total show pony how had talent but who had the speed of a snail and didn't like running around..

Selective memory syndrome in full working order again across the fanbase. Totally missing the point he cost nothing, at age 18 was taken from the scrapheap and fast tracked into the team because he was holding his own on the training pitches with the seniors. Was doing good cameos at Championship level alongside guys on tens of thousands a week and against players on even more whilst he was earning 300 quid a week. The development club, developing kids line is totally defunct when judging Dolan yet one look at Kargbo running fast and yes he's automatically better. #uckin ell.

Possibly, he has been around a long time though and must be 60 plus.

i find it a strange appointment,is he any improvement on carrick??? don`t think so myself,he`ll be under big pressure if boro don`t start well,especially after spending big last season

Can’t see Coventry interest being real they are well stocked in that area unless they are selling sheaf

Phenomenal, historical, colossal. Stunning from this England side, but let’s not forget India gave us so many chances with dropped catches and missed stumping, but we’ll take that. 1-0 England

Suck on that Balaji

I see efforts to sell the captain are escalating. Looks like Wrexham and Derby 'interest' not come to anything yet so let's try and get Coventry in on the act Wages and a couple of million fee long ago earmarked for savings and running costs.

Yep good for betting but his childishness was ridiculous with pretty much all of his bookings, its hard to believe he didn't get clattered a bit more as a result. Looked like he couldn't be arsed half the time, there's definitely some talent there but I doubt anyone is going to put his attitude right and his face straight at this stage...

It's always been a bit odd how under multiple managers Lowe has never been replaced. If he goes now it implies he was either in bed with Waggott or Ismaeel has a bit more sway than previous managers. Pretty sure it's the first option.

Interesting….i don’t mind a film clear out if val wants his own men in so be it

It was suggested that Lowe was once sacked and he went to the owners and was reinstated. As forever Blue mentioned the Twitter account Rovers insider has suggested he is unsackable and did have a direct line to the owners. It would seem to be a big deal, if he does get moved on.

Just replied to an interesting thread that was started a couple of months back. Inside Rovers - think it started there

Interesting thread in hindsight…. @Emerald Isle Rover

eustace moved him out of the 1st team organisation completely,he stuck him in the scouting dept,looks like val has put the final nail in lowe,just need to get rid of benson next

afc darwen

Can someone elaborate on the rumours about Lowe being an inside man? Never heard these before but now 3/4 comments on here and on x first Iv read/heard of it
