Iv never disputed that it would be better to have more signings by now but IF we end up with a few Quality signings by the end of the window then I wont be critical. I think it was a farce how long the process took for the DOF and Management team to be put in place and I think it's legitimate to criticize the owners and board for that but will hold off on any toward Broughton and JDT as they needed some time to assess etc Anyway fingers crossed we can get the 3 points on Saturday and things will start moving on incomings.

Guest Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 No chance we'll get Bowler I'm afraid. Not seen a single genuine bit of reporting to tell us that we're interested.

Hi Mack Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 I am terrified we are going in to the new season with one signing! With Lenihan, Rothwell and Nyambe all gone we are very light not only in numbers but quality too. This team capitulated last season and it was because we didn’t strengthen in January. We are now amazingly weaker. I thought the appointment of GB would improve our poor transfer record……Seems to have got worse! 😂 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Maybe Venky’s fax machine has broken(or they haven’t been arsed to check it), so they haven’t seen the requests for permission to sign Styles and JPVH? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHRover Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Only at Venky Rovers could you go from being 2nd in January/February and in with a chance of promotion, and then in the following 5 months not even finish in the top 6, lose most of the players that were central to us getting into that position, sign 1 RB all summer long and now the discussion is about 'transition' or in old fashioned speak a season of struggle / mediocrity and forget about promotion before we've even started. Deliberate sabotage couldn't have turned things around so quickly as this. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davulsukur Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Bowler would be a great signing. Can't get too excited over a random twitter account claiming it to be happening though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRevAshton Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 I'm unable to get even remotely excited about these "links" to Josh Bowler. Would have him here in a heartbeat don't get me wrong, just can't see it happening. I doubt we'll sign anyone even in the next week or so really... Though I like to believe that, when the signings do eventually come they will be worth the wait, and we'll all be pretty chuffed come September.

It felt this grim last year, registration embargo and top scorer most likely leaving. Season before it was “shit or bust” You know as well as I do, that results matter more than any of this, however I don’t know where “transition” suggests mediocracy. Also, we haven’t lost most. Some perhaps, but not most. Semantics mean a lot - also for the same token, those players we lost take some responsibility for our poor form since Christmas. As mentioned repeatedly- the last time we’d signed 4+ players before kick off was under Coyle. Lets see how we get on Saturday before bringing the “deliberate negligence” back into debate… 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Managed decline is the expertise at Ewood, whether intended or not it's something the directors and ownership are very good at. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CambridgeRover Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Blackpool surely arent spending that and getting the wolves player on loan unless Bowler is on the move. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
