2025 Summer Transfer Thread. 😂

Slightly rhetorical but a genuine question;

Is “The Rao’s, Venkys, whatever you call them’s” ambition the same as “the club” per se? 
 

I ask this on the basis that I believe the people incumbent of responsibility at Ewood work to a set budget. I appreciate that is a somewhat confusing aspect, however it does impact how you can assess the “club staff” and the “ownership”… that is if you differentiate between the two…

While the budget has clearly been cut, I’m struggling to believe that our road to the promised land was going to be paved with improved 4-year contracts for Travis, Dolan and Hyam, plus Ba’ath and Weiman creaking another season out.

Aka, "The Rubber Dinghy Men".

Dolan got an assist for the second goal in a 3-2 win.

They went 2-0 up in 20 mins and looked to be cruising, but a pen for Mallorca and a red for español, just before half time, put the game back in the balance.

It was all square on 75 but a late winner for the ten men, meant they won, despite playing the whole of the second half a man short.
