It’s what happens when people live on every word that comes out of nixons mouth The Baradji one is so stupid - but also makes me understand why they are still after another mf

Let us know the response. If you get any.

The Baradji situation is peculiar. Doesnt even seem to know whether surgery is required. Also, the Dutch striker already rubbished, and the Leonard sale being agreed also rubbished. And no contact for Browne. Hard to keep up amidst the wrong information.

I'm quite impressed by Alebiosu and Mclaughlin so far tbf. The opposite with De Neve and Henriksson hasn't started too well either. A lot will depend I think on how Baradji does. It will be fairly disastrous if we replace our Club Captain and leader on the pitch without someone who's basically unavailable for selection. And I still think we need (a lot) more firepower.

Yep. Personally dont think there's anything in Soumano, Smit or Gudjohnson, few more random names will come out yet.

We called it the morning rovers search for a striker Nixon fires out a couple of names and no doubt there will be a couple more names before Monday evening

This bag policy is absolutely outrageous if there's genuinely no wiggle room in it. I bring 3 kids and a rucksack containing reusable water bottles and some snacks, no way that fits in a4 size, are the club honestly saying that's not allowed! I've emailed to ask because it feels entirely cynical based around forcing me to spend more and, no doubt, stopping the Pasha Out sign coming in

They are being deliberate arseholes for the sake of it. An A4 sized bag?...'kin idiots.

Maybe we're talking about different things, but this is what Gestede said: "We used to be over 2,000 minutes for Under-23 Academy players. Last 12 months, 142 minutes." They want to get minutes into the academy graduates to give them resale value.

So VI currently won't even commit to a date for Baradji. I'm not sure we'll see him on the pitch for a good while.

Go Ahead Eagles reporter says nothing in the rumour and the striker is needed for the season.

Another £250k for Rovers if he plays.

In regards to the academy perhaps the new remit is sell anyone with any value in them right now with add on's and sell on's attached instead of carrying them here and paying them. Then replace with more promoted youth and a few freebie signings costing even less in wages and try and develop them at that level quicker than normal. They seem to want to create a conveyor belt right throughout the club where every single player on the books is a saleable and potential value increasing asset rather than a depreciating one or stagnant non value item.

Leonard is as good as gone. I reckon VI has refused to admit it because they won’t rubber stamp that deal until they get the one they want. Elliots source probably closer to the player.

Nixon.

They might as well go for Paul Ince, Tony Mowbray or Owen Coyle. The whole club stinks, the players are unmanageable so you might as well go for the cheapest option that'll break the club.

It would have to go some to be as bad as the Murphy/Etuhu window! Or Hodgson's spending spree in 98/99 for that matter (at least we got Matty Jansen alongside the rest of the dross). But yes, whilst I get there's an optimistic way of looking at this summer's dealings, I'd say there's only McLoughlin that you can hang your hat on as a reliable Championship level player (and even he could end up being a downgrade on what what we had last year). I don't say that as a criticism of any of the players or of Gestede even, but we've clearly gambled and it could easily backfire.

Stella Artois

If you believe that title is fitting of that completion that’s on you the facts multiple league winners of their own domestic leagues weren’t involved says it all really

Really. I thought he was/is a Jack Vale tribute act.

Would love to know his source

Chelsea have just become world club champions so how can he look any higher ?

It’s football it’s how all clubs now operate look at Newcastle having to part ways with Isak brentford Mbuemo and wissa when the bigger clubs come calling there’s not much can be done

Elliott Jackson has seemingly managed to shut down his own exclusive story. Ismael said nothing is agreed with Leonard.

It looks like the players have given up on him and are just treading water until the new mug comes in. A great time to play them ! When we used to play them in the “ Fergietime “ era you had to win there to get a draw !
