Nixon replied to someone on his patreon that we have a bid in for a striker from abroad but we are not the favourites to get him

Fk sake how hard Is it to find a lwb even if only a loan 

 

In the legendary words of a person who is no longer posting here:

We are prepared for this window.

I would take Mowbray back in a heartbeat right now 

Think virtually anyone would be an upgrade on Ismael.

As for Mowbray and his mate Venus, personally wouldn't touch them with a sh1tty stick.  How much did these two know about Waggot's plan to flog part of Brockhall and downsize our wonderful facility there?

IMO, Mowbray is selfish and in it for what he can get and he is not the affable 'uncle' type character he likes to portray.

Failed to save us from relegation, got us back up on by far and away League 1's biggest budget and then trod water for 4 years, allegedly turning down an offer from City to take Liam Delap on loan in a Jan. window when we had a great chance of play-offs.

No thanks.

Plenty deserve the siggy treatment that really shouldn’t be an issue

The issue will be we all know who shouldn’t make the cut but because Rudy and his team have signed them they won’t get cut as itl be a blow to their egos 

hedges should miss out 

along with any of tavaraes de neve henriksson and one of/maybe both Pickering/ribiero 

There is no reason for the Sigurdsson treatment. The club at least before these dickheads bought us wouldnt have conducted ourselves in such a way.

If we tell players that they likely wont be registered if they stay, and they choose to stay on their contracts as they are entitled to do. At least we have treated them properly.

A few journo's (Pete O'Rourke being one), are claiming that Wrexham are offering "up to" £19m for Sidiki Cherif of Angers.

I assume that £19m would be heavily based around promotion to the PL but it shows how far behind we are, even against clubs like Wrexham, in both ambition and finances.

Agreed the overall point I’m making is the 26 registered players shouldn’t be an issue it’s extremely clear who is cut out and who isn’t ready for championship football. However Rudy won’t see it that way

No doubting we are miles and miles behind but if that is true and happens it’s absolutely bonkers and could be boom or bust not to mention his age and profile and how big a gamble it is - like the player in question isn’t some sort of superstar

Worth mentioning they are battling Palace for this signature as they're selling Mateta. That's not "normal" champ ambition, it's Disney+ eyes revenue from Hollywood FC.

One day, we will have a Netflix documentary. Venkys will be gone, fans will be back, our new owners will be ambitious and it will be the rebirth of Rovers...

Wrexham enjoying absolute dreamland stuff tbf. Fair play to them. We could only hope for a fraction of that excitement, engagement and ambition from our hierarchy.

We'll be playing Ismael Ball against Bromley - at least when we play at their place we can enjoy a new pitch.

I wonder if Stoke would fancy Pears?

I’m sure master negotiator, Rudy Gestede can get a good deal.

Johansson ruled out for months, signed Bazunu on loan and he’s been ruled out for six weeks 🫣
