Their departure cant come quick enough..that I do know.

Brandon Thomas-Asante started as a wide role at Salford before moving into a central role and now he is playing up front/number 10/wide role at Coventry under Lampard. So this guy could be the same. I would have like BTA here when he was at Salford

We have made a bid for him as reported by Alan Nixon this morning

What's is it like in Jack kitchen? what food on offer?

Its Venky Rovers, it doesn't have to make sense to be true Something that is definitely true is that Rovers make their transfer and selection decisions based on data, and it is irrelevant as to if someone has played in that position previously See Ismael's rationale for playing Litherland at right wing back, or various summer signings who were obviously bought purely because data said they could press/win the ball high up the field (Henriksson) were fast (De Neve) etc

Rovers 1 - 2 Wrexham. Cantwell penalty. Predicted team: Pears Miller McLoughlin Pratt Litherland Tronstad TGH Hedges Cantwell Ohashi Henriksson Lots of effort, not nearly enough quality.

Ignoring the fact we won't be signing him, nor do we play with wingers - Clearey has had 6 months of OK form. Not what we need

Nothing about this makes sense. Why are we even trying to sign a winger when we dont play with wingers? It wont happen anyway, I think thats pretty clear.

"Top spy" Deary me.

ah, the age old lowball offer for someone who has interest elsewhere "we did everything we could"

The data suggesting either of those lumps could play football in general is the biggest flaw

Finally some decent (I hope useful) info. I shall quote her in full so none of it is my fault if incorrect: ‘Hey Michael, more than happy to help. Admittedly all of my murals have been commissioned by councils so a lot of the sites have mostly been approved but I have a rough idea of procedure. Firstly, it's worth talking to the council regardless because they might know of some funding pots for national heritage funds and prosperity funds. Especially with it being the legacy of Rovers. Murals aren't cheap so the more funding assistance the better. They might also have council owned walls for your project. Owner's permission is a big must. Double check that buildings aren't listed or very close to a listed building. If so you'll have to go through a long drawn out planning permission process and it can take ages (personally from experience) It's worth getting planning permission in general though. It protects you from the keyboard warriors. Planning permission can involve a consultation phase, like letters of notice stuck to lampposts and letters to neighbouring homes that a large mural is going to be on site and then people have a chance to oppose it. Once you've jumped over that big hurdle, if people complain during or after the mural is done then... Tough! It's council approved! If you don't have planning permission, sod's law you'll get a Venkys revolt against the hard work, complain really loudly (on Facebook usually) and then the council will come and tell you no.’ To her credit, she is not a football fan, and hates Venkys vicariously through me.

Theres a lot of shoehorning going on. Pickering at wing back? Henriksson up front? Kargbo up front? Miller as a wing back? Litherland as wing back? Even McLaughlin in the middle of a back 3? Yeah, all of that is fine, no need to try and improve. To be fair this Cleary rumour screams of a typical transfer window one that grows legs but comes to nothing.

I have not suggested that Pratt should be loaned out, youve made that up. I have been pretty clear that I wouldn't and that I would probably play him over McLaughlin as it stands on the left if we were to sign a centre back for the middle. On Litherland, I have praised him too but just dont think its good either for him or us to consider him the direct alternative to the far more attacking and dangerous Alebiosu for the rest of the season away from his natural position. It should be either a case of keeping hin as a centre back or failing that, a short term loan to allow him to develop like Wharton did physically in preperation to push him on ahead of next season. But if it is easier and needs you to make stuff up to justify, yes I am totally against developing young players. It seems to be a narrative you want to push to justify the inevitable inadequate recruitment about to come. For yourself, you seem to have a policy of lets make do that suits these owners down to the ground. I dont want he can do a job there, I actually want he can thrive there, I want to improve. Pickering is not a wing back, I am unsure what has changed from you repeatedly suggesting his sale up until a few days ago. Miller is really poor on the ball. Its all well and good him playing there for Australia against really weak countries, we have no idea if he actually does that job well for Australia. Playing at centre back is much more suitable for him.

The data says he can 😉 It also apparently said De Neve could play wing back and Tavares could play the Tronstad role, so there may be some flaws in the methodology

Ill settle for chips and mushy peas, and 3pts.😁

Or they could sign an actual striker that does play that role rather than trying to shoehorn someone in who hasn't played that role before.

Probably be a banquet, for their rich American owners.

Only these clowns would try and price Wrexham (12.30, Sky) as a premium fixture.

We've 5 or 6 players due back in January, Montgomery could be fit for the Charlton game. We definitely need to strengthen our strikeforce in the January transfer window.

Smit is actually doing very well for GA Eagles this season so can’t see him being available

Maybe...but odd they all went off sale at the same time We was in jk for the wolves cup game last year...similar thing happened then (someone was going to join us) We got an email that jack's kitchen had been moved into the 95 club due to low take up,they split the room with different food options at either side...the way the tickets went off sale i'm guessing the same thing is happening I could very well be wrong though!
