G Somerset Rover Posted January 3 Posted January 3 Not sure why anyone would feel the need to be cryptic at the moment about something non transfer related. We all just want the rats out. Quote
because of boxing day Posted January 4 Posted January 4 Were these crystal ball lyrics by Davies & Hodgson of Supertramp from "Rudy" on the Crime of the Century album 1974 Rudy's on a train to nowhere, halfway down the line He don't wanna get there, but he needs time He ain't sophisticated, nor well-educated After all the hours he's wasted, still he needs time He needs time, he needs time for living He needs time, for someone just to see him He ain't had no loving For no reason nor rhyme And the whole world's above him Well it's not as though he's fat No there's more to it than that See he tries to play it cool Wouldn't be nobody's fool Rudy thought that all good things comes to those that wait But recently he could see that it may come too late Too late, too late All through your life All through the years Nobody loved, nobody cared So dim the light, dark are your fears Try as I might I can't hold back the tears How can you live without love, it's not fair Someone said give But I just didn't dare, I didn't dare, I didn't dare What good advice are you waiting to hear Hearing's alright for them that's all there, hearing's alright You'd better, you'd better gain control now You'd better show 'em all now You'd better make or break now You'd better give and take now You'll have to push and shove now You'll have to find some love now You'd better gain control now Now he's just come out the movie Numb of all the pain Sad but in a while he'll soon be Back on his train 2 Quote
Popular Post OnionBalaji Posted January 18 Popular Post Posted January 18 Head of Football Operations … no prior experience Absolutely destroyed the team & forced a lot of long time staff of the club out the door The sooner we are rid of him and his pal Val the better. Ismael needs sacking today! 26 Quote
Popular Post davulsukur Posted January 18 Popular Post Posted January 18 Assume RG will be sacked at the end of the season, whether we stay up or not? It's clear that the data driven approach to player recruitment and the appointment of Ismael has been a spectacular disaster. Oh, wait, we're not a normal club are we? He'll probably get promoted to CEO 17 Quote
Scotty1991 Posted January 18 Posted January 18 Just want to see a video pop up on social media of one of our more unhinged supporters absolutely pelt him for a solid 15 minutes, pure unadulterated Lancastrian gob shite abuse! 3 1 Quote
Rogerb Posted January 18 Posted January 18 Put this here as suspect Rudy is the type to read this thread. Saw a lad yesterday playing for Bamber Bridge only recently arrived from Thornton Cleveleys. Way too good for this level. Archie Thomas Lang a 20 year old midfielder with a man of the match performance. Go and have a look Rudy rather than trawling the basement of the Belgian leagues. Quote

JHRover Posted January 20 Posted January 20 You think back to the spine and camaraderie we had through the team last year - Eustace-Travis-Batth-Brittain-Hyam-Dolan-Weimann - you could see it on the pitch - real togetherness and fighting spirit and mates off the pitch as well. This lot....good grief. It's enough to make you weep especially when you look at how Derby, Wrexham and Middlesbrough are getting on now and think about the willingness with which Rovers fans were willing to support and go along with that 'project' to dismantle what we had and replace with this lot. Still look on the bright side, the lowlife and their stooges have saved themselves a chunk of cash. Just a shame that will be wiped out with interest when we get relegated. 6 Quote

booth Posted January 21 Posted January 21 Mowbray had his death spirals but this is beyond that. They've left the club to rot and Gestede and Pasha are just the grave diggers. And neither own a spade. 2 Quote
rovers11 Posted January 21 Posted January 21 This may have been mentioned in another thread, but for anyone on X/Twitter, there is a prank call with Gestede that is going to be released by @BRFCPrivy7414. One has already been released with Pasha who said Pearsy is for sale but "Gestede is the one to speak to about transfers". It could, of course, be AI generated (who can tell these days!) but it seems legit. Quote

Will grab the popcorn for the Gestede one - I hope it shows him to be the inept clown we all know he truly is. 1 1 Quote
Rogerb Posted January 21 Posted January 21 In reality they are all for sale if a profit is involved. Quote

I did see the first releases earlier today, but my first impressions were that it was an attempt to divert heat away from Pasha. 'See, it's all Rudy this mess, nothing at all to do with me...' We'll see, I guess. Quote

RoverDom Posted January 21 Posted January 21 Had an amusing moment with my little girl who has just turned 3, still trying to grasp numbers and negotiating etc. Me: Right 5 more minutes of playing then we've got to start getting ready for bed Her: *stares me dead in the eyes*...... No....Three Not that this story is relevant to this thread in anyway just thought I'd share. 4 Quote

You get through to Pasha and Rudy and decide to ask about Aynsley Pears! Why not ask about one of our best players - Cantwell, Tronstad, or Hyam (at the time). Plus the clips are around 30 seconds long. Missed opportunity to really stitch them up. Quote

I’d need to hear the full call, because I’m fairly sure even Gestede would want to know who he was talking to before going into any of those details regarding players. Plus that negotiating is like what someone on work experience would do 👀 Edited January 21 by Hasta Quote
Backroom DE. Posted January 21 Backroom Posted January 21 (edited) I would say that it's impossible for any professional in a negotiation to sell a player to bring up that the team is prone to losing when that player is on the pitch. However, this is the same club that said Gueye didn't train properly and had the captain laughing at him in a widely circulated video - whilst we were trying to sell him - so who knows.

Plus that negotiating is like what someone on work experience would do. Exactly, just release the whole call at this point. The short clips are just dull and there's not been anything that damaging from those clips. Still can't fathom why a prank caller would get through to them and decide to ask about our reserve GK. Doesn't make any sense. Ask whether they are willing to sell our captain and then there would be uproar from the fans if they were trying to flog him. Hard to really care what has been said about selling a second rate GK. Quote
KentExile Posted January 21 Posted January 21 Another one here of him trying to sell Hyam to anyone who would have him Quote
