Agreed.

Been coming for a while.

Rovers unprepared for a new season....who'd have thought?

Fck off, Venky's..

 

Yep,finally looking like its caught up with us..only so many times you can dodge a Bullet.

In our 150th year it could be don 'yer Tin Hats time.

Fecking disgrace this lot.

Rovers seem experts in having offers rejected. Transfers and first team contracts.

God, how I despise them...

[Tomphil2]

I genuinely think they make a list every window of players they know they can't afford then just make phone calls to all the various agents who then in turn tip off the media or twitter accounts.

Linked with every player under the sun in certain price ranges but sign non.

Then it's but we tried but X offered a bigger fee, Y offered bigger wages and Z's club wanted way too much.

All lapped up by cries of 'but we only get 12k' if all the fans came back we'd.....

Lol.....A new term, especially for Venky Rovers..

" The club, who tried wolf."

[Ghost7]

Carter might not be present and Batth gone, yet they aren't submitting good enough offers on centre backs. Messing around for months. We need two.

The player catch up and need to spend more is our own making due to total negligence. Sort it out and get fit players with good pedigree into training now!! 

Offer acceptable contracts and rebuild some spirit with long term objectives/ incentives and start acting like a serious football club..... or sell up and give it to someone who will.

Kevin Zefi en route

To be fair, his contract is up in May 2026 and he's playing in the SPL (not at Rangers or Celtic), so how much is he realistically worth?  They signed him for 350k Euros in 2022. 

I don't know much about the guy, but looking at it on paper I'd probably say this would make sense, certainly to the Rovers hierarchy.  Contract running out, good age, potential to improve, and in 2-3 years he's probably reaching his best years. Hibs just had a really good season, finishing 3rd and reaching Europe.

Of course, there will be very few of us that know anything about him, but that probably accounts for 90% of transfers that get done.  This one, I can see the logic. 

It wasn't the player I was disparaging as I know nothing about him.

It was the fact we appeared to be wasting ours and everyone else's time with our usual bout of tyre kicking.

Pears wouldn't get a game in my weekday 7 a side kick-a-bout. He's awful.

Neither would Dolan, which tells its own story.....

It’s rovers 

fits the current model 

big talk about him in Ireland but in no way shape or form should we have him as one of our first team signings - tyjon is the equivalent

Looks on paper a really promising signing (if true)based on his recent clubs.

For a club which doesn't care about what it's fans think, you do seem to come up with a lot of ways that they're trying to make us feel better.

His latest trial was with Sligo Rovers - mix up with the Rovers' maybe? Way below our first team squad anyway.

I initially thought that myself but I can’t see him playing LOI seems there’s interest from EFL again though not what we ‘should’ be after

It's called window dressing i don't think we've ever been 'linked' with so many since the windows involving Kean and co.

We haven't announced a 50 million war chest yet it's 3 or 4 different players a day.

Amazing stuff.

[BankEnd Rover]

We love being advanced and actually doing nothing this window.

If it's true, as mr o'rourke is very hit n miss, i think it's a solid championship signing. Got plenty of experience which what we need.

But he runs in treacle, stands on the ball then turns backwards so surely such an easy opponent even for a bunch of cloggers.
