Brittain was training with Rovers today

Exactly. Re-investing the loose change from his already budgeted for wage on a lower paid cheap player is more akin to how they operate here.

As said many times, the ‘governing bodies’ and leagues of English football are purely competition organisers, nothing else. They don’t ’safeguard’ the game one iota, as long as all the teams turn up 46 times, they’re happy.

Bit like the rest of flanks.. and the board Sigh

Does anyone bother paying for LT? Every article I click on these days is unreadable because of their paywal.. apart from scrolling through our constant chat (no complaints, I love our forum!) any good /reputable pages to keep an eye on for Rovers news? Not that there will be news I bet

Sheffield Wednesday’s problems are growing. Looks like minutes from meetings are being withheld from fans for some reason, just like at Ewood.

I stand corrected. He seemed quite safe when he first started playing for us but was one he really seemed to get forward when JDT-ball was working. For some reason I thought he arrived a year earlier.

val likes his players over 6 foot and to press the ball,reckon he`s going all long ball this season,pointless to try and bomb down the flanks if we don`t have the players to do it,long ball to kargbo/de neve running behind the full back will be the go to play,iv`e nothing against it tbh,my main concern is we have to small a squad to play the pressure game week after week

Not sure I agree but you might be spot on - that said his experience could be invaluable. Inevitably we are taking calculated risks. We can’t compete for proven talent in its prime so has to be older, like walker, potentially injury prone (Hartmann and Tuanzabe) or unproven kids with perceived potential (Koleosho when we signed him). I doubt I’ll have anything to gloat about in 6 months or all season though - even if Walker proves you wrong on every point Thanks for the heads up 😉.

Mowbray wasn't here when Brittain signed. He was always good on the ball ,excellent that season for Barnsley when they made the top 6 under ismael

Wonder if Alebiosu will be used on the RW if Miller comes in at RB.

Losing Brittain does mean that right flank would be toothless going forward, definitely need a right winger.

Mowbray bought a raw Brittain. JDT got him playing one-two’s, first time passes, running off the ball and getting into the box. Eustace got him defending better. Its a good example of a player absorbing the best bits from each coach he’s worked under.

Reinvesting a portion of profit on a player who has potential and is younger seems far too sensible.

And I do like the idea of an athletic, quick team that can harass the opposition and break with pace. But I also worry about how many soft tissue injuries we will pick up. Given we already get quite a few with our not particularly fast team, I think this approach may necessitate more depth than we will accrue.

If Miller signs for us I'll personally give him a Vegemite sandwich.

It feels a bit like we could be swapping having one excellent FB on each flank before Jan last season (Beck and Brittain) for having two dependable FBs on each flank (Ribeiro and Pickering, albeit the latter was already here, and Miller and Alebiosu). Of course, the fullness of time will bear out whether that's an accurate assessment, but I wonder how to feel about that if it is. Ideally you'd have quality and depth like we did at LB all season really. At RB though we got a little lucky that Brittain stayed fitter than the season before, as none of the backup options was particularly palatable. And maybe one of the new lads will prove to be quality, but it's hard to see either being immediately as good as Brittain was. The video I found of a younger Miller suggests he moves a bit like Brittain, but I didn't see much evidence of the high quality delivery Callum has. But if he has learnt since then and can defend better than CB there might not be much in it.

I know these are song lyrics, but the ability to run seems to be #1 on Ismael's priority list.

Is he the best RB in the league? Perhaps he is on the ball. I don't think he is off the ball.

Apparently the scouting team have heard of a man down under. Val has reportedly said he better run, and they better find cover

F is a blatant rip off of a fan flag, not sure if they're on here 😳 A or B, the only problem with B is its not the club Jack loved anymore so it feels a bit wrong 😪

I think whst we saw of brittain in the final couple of months is the best he's gonna get (a reliable rw back nothing more nothing less) Millar allresdy looks as good as brittain if he can adapt to the championship and has the potential to be a better more versatile player than brittain. Who knows, just get some players signed 😅😅
