Or a Bullseye themed shirt.

Definitely could see a Bullseye kit being an absolute classic still remembered in 50 years.

If the club doesnt make one BRFCS should! Could use one of those concept kit manufacturers.

Baradji ‘medium-term’ injury according to VI. This one has dark agents written all over it.

What a bit of business that was. Replacement for Travis.

Henriksson also out with a broken hand.

A contract for a player like that coming in on a pay as you play set up can never be straightforwards.

Be very interesting to see a breakdown of the particular deal 🤔

[roversfan99]

The thing is, there was a big gap between him failing a medical and then us revisiting the deal, and also a further gap between him signing and us knowing what was going on. 

If they were so intent on signing him, could this recuperation not have started far sooner?

Ismael said he might be back after the next international break but maybe even the one after that. Basically he cant put a timescale on it. 

Ill be amazed if we see him before Christmas. An utterly pointless signing and within a squad lacking quality in depth.

Although according to one or two, its a very clever bit of business. 

[Tomphil2]

Saving then thousands per week though having a player in the squad who isn't being paid until he players.

I'm sure they'd love a few more like that if they could find them.

If any of these recent signings are any good, it will be more good luck , than management !

Already , the sick bay is becoming busy !

Not seeing this guy till next year then

[sharpysharps86]

Can only see a loss in this one. Which is how I felt before the Hull game too so maybe Rover will surprise me again.

I'll go 2-1 Watford, Gudjohnsen to come off the bench and get a late debut goal.

Do we still have to travel to long distance games on the SWAG Bus or are we now allowed to either fly or use the train like any other professional club

The Rovers account tweeted about a couple of hours ago about a last training session before setting off for Watford.

So it looks like train this afternoon then off down South on the bus in peak Friday traffic.
