  1. ? Jim Ratcliffe was born in Failsworth, lived in a council house, his dad was a joiner and mum worked in an accounts office.
  2. Simply cannot believe that. 3 times? Was that the same inexperienced person each time? Those sorts of decisions come from higher up.
  3. So all this court case stuff is nothing to do with Rovers? Other than an excuse not to provide adequate funds to improve.
  4. Don't think we will go down and wouldn't have anyway. Just got a manager to future proof failure.
  5. JE 6 points in 8 games Would equate to circa 35 points in 46 league games = relegation
  6. Warm weather training coming up? SWAG could drive them on the bus to somewhere warmer -Torquay? 😉
  7. What JE perhaps needs to realise is that after over a decade of miserable years under the Raos, the bullshitometer of the intelligent Rovers fan is set to ultrasensitive.
  8. I get a pdf with little on it of relevance other than the info above in my post.
  9. https://dhcappl.nic.in/dhcorderportal/ 1. click on ‘case wise’ 2. change case type to WP (C) 3. Case number is 7966 4. change year to 2023 I can only get this O R D E R % 24.01.2024 In view of the scheduled Vigilance Committee meeting at 05:00 PM, this matter cannot not be taken up today. List on 12.03.2024. SUBRAMONIUM PRASAD, J
  10. (Apologies Miller) so that's why we've had the nondescript stuff of late. 😃
  11. Somewhat offbeam but does anybody know if a music track is played at Ewood, do we have to pay royalties?
  12. I see ‘where you are coming from’ to use an awful phrase. He has to try and keep up morale and so on. However, the interview comments after the Plymouth game were wishy washy drivel that any PR guru would have been proud of. He didn’t have to say ‘it was crap and we were totally outplayed for 80 minutes’ but he could have been more realistic and injected a note of urgency rather than bland clichés, as well as take the bland smile off his face. You could argue that as he is SWAG’s appointment, he is, de facto useless. But at the moment, I would side with those that say it is a little early to tell, despite signs not being good.
  13. Too bright and honest a manager for the shitshow that is Rovers.
  14. Team? 1 P Robinson (c) 18 B Orr 16 S Dann 5 G Givet 21 M Olsson 10 M Formica 8 D Dunn 35 J Lowe 12 M Pedersen 23 J Hoilett 24 Y Aiyegbeni SPURS 24 B Friedel 28 K Walker 13 W Gallas (c) 4 Y Kaboul 25 D Rose 7 A Lennon 14 L Modric 30 Sandro 3 G Bale 11 R van der Vaart 10 E Adebayor
  15. Sack him? Come on Mercer you know that ain't going to happen. Would cost them. Everybody knows it's 5 points out of a possible 21. All other noise is er just noise, WUM or club apparatchik.
  16. arbitro tells it well. First 10 minutes and thought this was going to be a good match for us. Get the goal, lovely short stuff between Ayari (in particular), Sammie, Buckley, Siggy and things look good. Then it goes pear shaped. They get some belief and for the rest of the game dominate, albeit we look dangerous on the break. Adam Forshaw controls the game for them. Nice open game, totally different to Millwall, they came to play. But the space in midfield was frightening. They could drop it in behind our wingbacks, outpace us on the flanks or outpace us in the middle. Frankly, they were pretty poor in front of goal and just as well, could have had a hatful. On one occasion, their lad (Mumba?) was clean through and had a horrible touch which just gave it back to Leo. Rovers tight at the back? No chance. Time and time again our back three were so stretched (not to mention a horrible out of line) that a simple ball over the top to a runner had them in. And yet Siggy misses a sitter to make it 2-0. Second half and not much changes until McFadz pointlessly get himself (rightly) sent off. Why do it? Let him go. You’ve got a good chance that a 1 on 1 will go in our favour. And if not, the score goes to 1-1 and you’ve still got 11 men on the pitch to try and make a difference. Down to 10 and you end up firefighting. Ayari was good throughout the game but couldn’t get in to it enough. Nobody else on the pitch makes the glorious early pass to Sammie for the goal. Sammie lovely, one touch onto his right and curler round their player into the corner. Looked knackered at the end, poor lad.
  17. Very windy. Thinking keeping it short might negate that but who knows.
  18. That was quick. Didn't know SWAG was on that much.
  19. Indeed -keeps it brief 😉 And whilst I am fully onboard with slinging shite where we all know it should go, I have a feeling we may win this one. Cue happy clappers, what are you all worrying about. Funny old game and all that.
  20. On Millwall’s goal:- • 2 soft tackles before the cross (Garrett and Wharton) • Where is Hyam on the cross? Hopelessly out of positon –if he was in his shape he could have headed clear • Lucky deflection off Buckley • Mcfadz done by a simple drop of the shoulder • Wahl falls over instead of just standing tall On our goal: • Siggy needs to play a simple pass to Sammie but contrives to give it straight to the defender • Another Millwall defender then gives it back to Siggy who this time can’t fail to give it to Sammie • Sammie no hesitation, first time aims for far corner, not quite there but enough pace on the shot for Millwall keeper to fail to get to ground quick enough to keep it out Two sides who couldn’t score in open play but gave each other a goal. 🙂
  21. It’s obviously all JDTs fault if we go down… …for being rational, for being intelligent, for playing attractive football, for being logical, for being a quality coach, for calling out incompetence, for wanting new players, for not towing the line and doing what he was told.… But don’t worry, you can all breathe a sigh of relief because we’ve sacked him and a new project (puppet) is in place with us all in it together. Let’s get back to what we know and love, over promising and under delivering, easy training, easy street, mediocrity, turgid football, poor computer skills, poor communication skills, January admin errors, increased prices, court cases, power vacuums, a compliant LET, docile fans, comment section bots… Phew, I mean there was a danger there of us being a sensible club. Order restored.
