Shouldn't have been anywhere near us once he left at the end of last season. He was at best average last season, left for free and now we're left like Baradji picking up his wages for absolutely no benefit. This kind of thing is exactly why no one trusts the team putting the squad together - literally everyone saw this coming.

A squad man who hasn't cost any wages yet, the payroll dept will love that. I'm sure his agent will have sent his invoice in though.

No loss as he isnt a Championship standard player these days. But another really shrewd bit of business. Did we know he was injured when he signed?

Forshaw subbed after 41 mins which suggests a possible injury as he was due to play 60 mins tonight

This weekends games for our loanees Saturday 12:30 O'Riordan - score/update - touch and go with an ankle injury Saturday 3pm Barrett - score/update Olson & O'Grady-Macken - score/update Edmondson - score/update Pratt - score/update Sunday 1:30am UK time Duru - score/update

Thrilled to see Henderson in the squad again 🙄

I think Stoke will smash us. Robbins knows how to set a team up. Ismael doesn't

Even by the usual standards of being contrary this is surely talking the piss. A loan signing whose only contribution so far is using our medical facilities and looks he will be doing into November at the earliest. We’ve got a self imposed 10k wage cap but are happy to pay the wages of another teams player while he undergoes treatment with seemingly no timescale on when he will actually play for us. As batshit mental signings go, and there has been a few under Venky’s this one is right up there.

They have now conceded 3 goals in 8 minutes at the start of the second half edit - finished 3-1, Powell with a consolation goal before Rovers went down to 10 when Leatherbarrow was sent off with just over 10 minutes left to play U18s are away to Leeds tomorrow at midday U21s are at home to Leyton Orient on Wednesday

Indeed. Ironic that the last two ‘senior’ renewals they have done (with more than a few months left on their existing deal) has been for two Rovers fans!

Eustace's Rams couldn't beat an egg last year until they faced Valerian's plodders. It was his first win there. What are the chances of a repeat? 😄

You havent said your opinion on ("the plan of" signing a player out injured for months. You have done your usual routine of going round arguing with people who criticise the club, without committing to saying that you agree with the decision.

Will point out that this is just a 1 year extension (albeit with an option to take it to an extra year), highly likely to be on the same terms as previous, given his injury history and connection to the club was probably easy enough to get done But it is a rare positive nonetheless

‘Hollywood’ Birmingham owned by a Chinese majority shareholder and a New York hedge fund.

absolutely brutal conditions in wigan vs leigh,i doubt there will be many tries scored tonight

Do you think John Fleck was a good signing? Only featured for 17 minutes but played well in a game we dominated whilst he was on. If we judge him solely on what he did on the pitch he’s surely an outstanding bit of business.

i honestly think you`de still defend the regime if they released everyone and put 11 of their chicken workers on the pitch,despite us finishing the season on zero points,it was clear what the plan was

I see Sky have billed Wrexham v Birmingham as the "Hollywood Derby". Cringe.

I wouldn’t rule it out.

Taken off after 41 minutes, so safe to assume he has broken down and will be out for a while.... again The plan was for him to play 60 mins

what to clarify? I have said my opinion on this RF99. I judge a signing on what he does on the pitch. We knew he wouldn't be fit to play when we signed him and its would be 2 or 3 before he played here, yet some of us get yourself in twist over it when it was clear what the plan was for this signing injury wise and operational wise

It’s starting to look like we could have waited until January to sign this Baradji chap.

Signing an injured player does look as though it was the plan. Obviously it’s an absolutely shit plan though. The plan has contributed to us being in the relegation zone by the beginning of October, was that the plan?

Easiest one possible to do, but at least its one done. Think he will be decent in league one. Let's see if they get anyone over the line that isn't a Rovers fan.
