But I don't see what he can bring to transfer dealings. And an odd time to hire him if true, on the day the window closes. We won't be hiring him, we'll just be giving him work experience to keep him busy and try to get a job done on the cheap. Meanwhile almost 4 months on and still no replacement CEO for Waggott. Who is picking up 'the slack' that he was covering last year? The work that required a £400k a year salary seems to have just fallen into the cracks between those that remain. Interesting. 2 Quote
Elrovers Posted September 1 Posted September 1 If we can keep hyam and complete Hickman then it’s a decent window but of course we’ve lost important players and replaced them with unproven players. High risk but potential high reward let’s hope it pays off 1 Quote

Allowing for Pasha obfuscation and dysfunctional send buttons, we are probably already too late for whatever may or may not have hoped to happen. so no Garner-Hickman No Hyam to Hollywood No Gueye to Aberdeen No Leonard to Peterborough No Tyjon to Arsenal No Pears to a hairdresser. If the Birmingham lad came and the rest didn't happen, that wouldnt actually be that bad. 4 Quote

Rhodes (like Rudy) loses credibility I had for him if he comes in to be a venky yes man.. free money for him so doubt he’ll care for us fans 1 Quote
TimmyJimmy Posted September 1 Posted September 1 For Rovers v Derby for the 150th it'll be Rovers A v Rovers B. Sadly we'll be Rovers B. I've followed Rovers for a long time but I've never seen a window like this. The lunatics really are in charge of the asylum. 9 Quote

islander200 Posted September 1 Posted September 1 Can't even get a couple of decent loans in Honestly we would have been much better off if Waggott had stayed and Pasha and Gestede went, fuck all championship experience signed with the exception of one signing and a yes man as a coach willing to accept it, who will be under no pressure even when results are terrible I'm not writing any of the signings off or calling them shite but the owners and whoever is making the decisions on recruitment have ripped apart a squad close to a play off place and turned lnto likely relegation candidates Some ego on the people making the decisions thinking they can let go of near all their strongest 11 from last season and replace them with cheap league of nations 11 Gambling with our championship status 2 Quote
paullarrygher Posted September 1 Posted September 1 The latest Twitter rumour is that Zack Abbott on loan from Forest is Hyam's replacement. A 19 year old who has played 147 minutes of senior football. Quote
Elrovers Posted September 1 Posted September 1 1 minute ago, Wegerleswiggle said: Zach Abbott from Forest. Deadline Day + Rovers + Forest Bound to be a success I’ve seen that rumour. If it is true hyam is definitely going then. So a 19 year old replacing a 29 yr old. Damn this club Quote
Roverthechimp Posted September 1 Posted September 1 Has anything actually happened? Are Leonard and Pears still here? Is Hyam on the M6? Anyone - anything? Quote
