Tronstad wants to go back to Norway. When? I don't know. His wife is from Haugesund and SHE want to settle down there.

Bet that was a fun contract negotiation, you’d have to think he got himself a nice pay increase out of it

I hope they’re really small plates, my appetite isn’t thst great these days.

I think Gestede let the cat out of the bag with this one, He said Tronstad wants to go back to "a Scandinavian country", (he didn't specifically mention Norway), It is possible that either a Malmo, or a Copenhagen who "regularly" qualify for the Champions League might be able to rival Championship wages (or at least the Championship wages that Rovers are offering), if there is no fee to pay "Going forward, his future is not in the country so he doesn't want to discuss an extension or anything, as he has a personal reason to go back to a Scandinavian country."

Bro i believe exactly what ure saying and i agree 1000% ... my question is reporters , fan podcast and even fans arguing here not asking this ? which i find as the best PR WOOL of suhail & kentaro over us...

Ipswich looked very good on Friday but that was their first win of the season. They’ve only lost one but draws have been the issue for them. I’d take a draw now but saying that I would have taken a draw away at Watford.

They'll look into it.

The ambition is to tread water and stay afloat. No appearance of flapping around and grabbing straws. Look like we're perpetually setting up for next season without actually having to achieve anything. In this window we bought a lottery ticket. The winning numbers are being read out and so far some of our numbers have come up (Morishita & Alebiosu, possibly Gudjohnsen). Long way to go. RG might get lucky and claim credit but as always with these things it's dumb luck. So, ambition??! mmm, let me think.

Big Sam mindset, it can work.

Same starting 11. That team got us into Saturday winning position and why change it Cantwell is a 10 and his performances from there and Captain has been outstanding so far

I don't know what kind of team we are yet but our 1st XI is competitive, its when those dark nights Sat, Tues cime that worries me, nothing in the Championship should scare us at home. Set up to hit them on the break and a bit of after Lord Mayor's show for Ipswich 1-1.

Tronstad knows full well if he's offered anything at all it'll just be a one year extension on present terms so he's just setting his own stall out for the future,

What utter and totally rubbush Hate them? Give over. FFS, they are footballers who will move clubs plenty of times. Never hated Rovers legends like Alan Shearer, Brad Freidal or Tim Sherwood when they moved on to other clubs. So why am going to hate Brittain for moving to Boro. FFS.

The sole ambition is to do enough to finish comfortably above relegation whilst growing the new assets into profitable saleable players. Then there'll be a repeat of the recent scenario in a couple of years time where players will be sold with contracts ticking down, perhaps the odd bigger sale or two of a few good strikers and the wage cap will remain (reduced in real terms) or even reduced to 8k a week ! Agents will fill their boots again and Suhail will be a couple more years wages better off. Maybe even Val and Rudy have loftier ambitions themselves but they know the score here so if they over achieve fair enough but the stall is set now for a repeat performance of this summer, probably forever more. You might not be familiar with Dario Grady's Crewe Alexandra but maybe look them up because we are a bigger version of them now. Forget this Brentford model talk.

So Wilder's return to Sheffield Utd confirmed. Has there been a more pointless and ridiculous series of events than what we've seen there since the play-off final? Sack a bloke who got 90 odd points and a play-off final, appoint a young coach with minimal experience of the Championship/promotions, it's a disaster and then go back to the bloke you sacked a few months later? At least the owners there have had the courage to admit defeat and go back to a safe pair of hands and sensible appointment. Would have been easier for them to turn to someone totally new rather than swallow their pride and go back to Wilder but his record there speaks for itself. Expect them to climb the table quickly and I'll be having a little bet on them making the top 6 again.

You'll enjoy it I'm sure, small plates mostly, looking forward to your review.

i understand this is a transfer thread and we're all arguing , could a better contract hold our proven players? are we on self imposed wage cap? is gestede a dickhead ? (definitely yes) , did the groundsman change his lucky underwear ? did the tea-lady serve coffee ? but we forget the important question , nobody is asking WHAT IS OUR AMBITION THIS SEASON ? or next season this question answers everything ... so many interviews ... gestede,VI,suhail and even the data guy.. not even LT asking ... or is the answer TRANSITION PERIOD FOR 3 YEARS the restart TRANSITION for some weird reason ...current set has skillset for playoffs ( i know many disagree ) ...just my opinion

My lad won the spin the wheel thing from the fanzone where you go on the pitch at half time and pass into the target. I gave all my details, etc and was told I'd receive an email the following week. 2 weeks later and still nothing. I'm going to call tomorrow but wondered if anyone had experience of the match day team who run these things and who I'd contact. Saves me wading through the switchboard

Yep, not like he has earned mega bucks in his career so far. I'd imagine his contract with us will be the most lucrative one he has had so far, and now he's proven himself in this league he'd earn more in his next one (at another club).

Aye, I understood that. Sorry if it wasn't clear.

Yes agreed... probably worth £250k a year at least for him to stay in the Championship. No one at the end of their career, when you are literally talking about two or three years, walks away from that amount of money.
