I agree I don't the negativity. Rovers are still in control of whether we get a playoff place or not. 

Statistically what you say is correct, but we've won 1 game in our last  7, can barely score and are playing sides who are hitting form at the right time whilst we have declined dramatically. Current form would suggest we miss out.

At least we didn't lose BBD for nothing.............oh wait, the doors just fell off the car, the clown show of all transfer clown shows

I remember Peter Dobing at Stoke. He was very much a Dack style striker that dropped back into midfield after injury. He still had enough football intelligence to be able to pull the strings from a less advanced position.

Completely different game now, athletic requirements are far, far greater than back in those days, even CBs have six packs now

City were 2 down, now 4 - 2, Haaland hat trick

You know what to expect when you get hit by a rifle round but you cant stop it coming when fired at you. 

Not true, most people have watched too many war films were they get up and fight back, 7.62mm is massively unforgiving and really spoils your day

I'm heading down to Coventry this weekend to play the Goliath poker tournament, you guys need me to pick anybody up on my way back. There's two of us in the car so 3 max please

I'm feeling very deflated, tired and fatigued. It's possibly due to the antibiotics i'm on, though it could be because of Rovers.

Probably both, I guess.

I have crippling depression, and tonsillitis.

Keep safe and get well soon, probably best not to read anything Rovers related for a week

we only appointed JDT and GB about 2 months ago. 

time to judge and comment is after the transfer window ends IMO

When you have an injury plagued 31 year old and a 17 year old kid as your only choices at CB, plus no cover for your full backs and being 5 games into a season is criminally negligent. If this doesn't change dramatically we are in for a really tough season.

I am fully aware of team today and the bench thanks. But we don't rush signings 

We've had 3 months, this is criminal

The club is not failing JDT currently, but the championship transfer market is slow currently if you look at the whole transfer market. We have budget and we can't just over pay for players. 12 days to go and we need around 4 signings. Van Der Berg deal is waiting for Liverpool defensive crisis to get better before they release him. If you want quality signings sometimes patience is needed and I rather we waiting then just sign players who we don't want really or rushing signings for the sake of it

Look at our bench today. We have Ayala and a 17 year old playing with no defenders on the bench, wake up and smell the fekking coffee

As an alternative to Van Hecke, Van de berg looked alright for the knob enders, he's back at Anfield and ain't starting in front of their first 4 CBs

It happens. Chelsea sold Lukaku at 18, Manure sold Zaha and let King leave. 

Their biggest balls up was selling Salah and De Bruyne cheap and reinvesting that in dross

Liverpool are well known for getting top dollar on their sales. I'd be very surprised if we could afford him

Chaddy is currently scouring all the Scandinavian leagues and will appear shortly with a mighty list of viking contenders, most of which most of us will have never heard of.

Mercer is placing bets on some obscure signings and stocking up on Vino Collapso for when they get stuffed.

I am just a bit giddy since the manager fiasco hasn't dragged on forever and ever.

A warm welcome JDT and Remy, whilst I appreciate that a threadbare squad and a somewhat ridiculous hierarchy won't make life easy I am optimistic and for the first time in a while a tadge excited about the prospects going forward. 

I realise that it will take some time to effect your style and ideas and that new players may take time to bed in, but I am pleased to see some energy and enthusiasm coupled with your previous experiences. COYB

On the same day we have Haaland signing for City, Darwin Nunez going to Liverpool and Jon Dahl Tomasson heading to Rovers.

The big guns mean business 😁.

It’s an opinion, nobody has said anything else…

opinions are like onions without taking the pee

The departure of Lenihan and Van Hecke leaves us with a big hole in the centre of defence again, add to that a new RB and the new DoF is going to have to earn his corn from day 1. I guess he also needs a Diaz replacement, a decent left back and some midfielders. Strap in Mr DoF you are going to be busy, busy, busy.

Baffling move.

Maybe he's had a taste of being the main man and doesn't fancy it. It's a backwards step, career wise.

Additionally he's not master of his own destiny, if Gerard gets potted then he's probably down the road as well

Nigel Adkins right now feels like probably the equivalent of Mowbray in 2017. Wouldn't be a surprise at all, unfortunately.

This is true and it saddens me immensely

personally i also cant be arsed with the 'ole at the wheel' banter i used to berate my United fan mates with regularly, they were extremely good times when he was at United for obvious reasons... i just cant see him managing well with such a low budget and being taken seriously which is what our group of young needs. We also shouldnt be given for any ex united player btw, ie. carrick, rooney etc... they have their salford city toy fc or whatever they're called, club for that.

Most of what you say is spot on. Ole at Cardiff was dire and that would be a better comparison to us than Man Utd, Rooney on the other hand has been superb at Derby despite the almighty clusterfuck he had to work through.

He finished above Liverpool and Klopp with an inferior side the season before last. 

 

Liverpool had an horrendous injury list for most of the season, Fabhino and Henderson played centre half regularly, VVD, Thiago etc. missed most the season

Gonna be peed if Jagielka jumps ahead of Arsene Wenger , was just starting to warm to that given someone else claims he has said yes to them

Glen, it would be a poor show if Jagielka couldn't jump ahead of Wenger, he's 72 and has lost a lot of his muscular density 🤣
