We haven't been ready for the January window in any of the last 5 years, what on earth makes you think it will be any different this time?

In fairness, when he says things there is a possibility they are true, or partly true. He does get some things right. But there's at least as much chance it's cobblers, so hanging on his every word is ludicrous.

I wouldn't have thought a Kent exile would struggle with a London accent! Until I clicked I assumed he must have reverted to pidgin English. The background noise makes it tougher to make out though. He gave his Nigerian name, that I can't spell, said he liked what I think was a Nigerian dish that I can't spell, said he grew up in Arsenal's youth academy (slightly odd turn of phrase to say he grew up there but hey), and that he likes to sing and makes music on the side, but doesn't release it. He was supposed to give 5 things people didn't know about him, so the 5th one was 'I fucking hate Venkys' (I wish, he couldn't think of a 5th one).

What are we betting? First notable signing (if possible with Rudy) 25th Jan? I'm excluding that Dingle Gibson

the only way venkys are exiting is if they do a chansiri type refusal to pay the bills and let the club slide into administration,might sound bad but i guarantee sheff wed will be in a far better position than us in 3/4 seasons time

The club deserves relegation. The last few transfer windows have been a complete disgrace.

they put bids in to placate the brainwashed (like chaddy) into thinking we are trying to get players in,in reality the bids are so low that they`ll never be accepted,to make it look respectable they then arrange a loan for some over the hill midfielder with the proclamation,the january window is very difficult,we tried but other clubs are in a far better position financially,cue a p****d off manager and players that can`t wait for the summer so they can get away

I just bid for Cleary, Barnsley rejected my offer too Its actually getting the deals done that matters If anyone is interested, my offer was £534,000.26, spread over 76 years, with a 2.5% sell on. Whilst my bid was rejected out of hand, I am the highest bidder thus far

I'll be impressed (ish) if we actually land players early. What use is it putting bids in and having them turned down?

They bid for me, £500 to my mum. I'm shit at football mind you but I'll fit in with half the bench so no worries!

I am struggling with the accent, so if anyone wants to translate ...

Assuming we want to compete at Championship level, any prospective purchaser needs to have enough money to give the Raos what they want to go away, to buy back the training ground (or replace it) & provide sufficient working capital to plug the annual revenue gap unless & until income grows sufficiently to close the deficit. The answer to your question depends on the asking price & the division in which we wish to compete. It costs a lot less to compete with Accrington Stanley than Burnley.

I would imagine so Rovers probably cannot/will not announce it until its official

Is O'Riordan back available for tomorrow? Not seen anything mentioned by Rovers at all. You would think he would be recalled immediately to help bulk the squad out slightly.

Evidence? Nil

Ballroom Blitz - Sweet

WOW!

Do we know the first two sentences for certain? Or is this just what Nixon says, so you’re believing it?

"Of course we are ready." Have I been following a different club for 15 years? We will see come next week how ready we were.

Not playing is not playing - do all the training in the world but it’s not the same as actually playing competitive football - no loss to us at present at all

The Drifters - Sweets For My Sweet

Not playing for a team that finished as one of the top teams in the MLS (semi final of their convoluted league system) is a considerably higher level than playing in the National League North, and Pratt has done fine. Duru will of course have been training That said, I don't think Rovers hold any option re Duru, San Diego had the option to extend his loan regardless of what Rovers wanted, and they also hold an option to make it permanent should they wish

Hasn’t played in 3 months wouldn’t be much use to us

Seems a bit odd not getting Leo Duru back from his loan in MLS with Alebiousu away.

apparently we`ve put in a bid for cleary,a 6 figure fee,which in rovers terminology means £100,000,unsurprisely,barnsey have turned it down😁
