  1. He's a wing back rather more than a full back and has been doing well in the last couple of months with a few assists and a goal. Could well be in the first team squad next season which would mean Batty could be loaned out to see if he is going to be good enough.
  2. Rovers loanees Georgie Gent and Jack Vale both in the starting line up for Motherwell versus Celtic live on Sky.
  3. I think Given came through Celtic's youth system.
  4. Very sad news. I saw him put on an unbelievable display in an away game at West Brom the season they got promoted. Along with David Raya the best keeper to come through our youth scheme in living memory.
  5. Shrewd man management by Eustace. Talks Gallagher up and is rewarded by a goal and an assist in the first half hour. What a contrast to his predecessor who would have spent the week whinging about not being able to sign a No 9.
  6. Think you only have to remember what Fergie has said about the Glaziers to realise that yet again you are talking drivel.
  7. Worth remembering that Howard Kendall - one of our 2 best managers in living memory - had 1 win, 3 draws and 4 defeats from his first 8 games as our manager in the third tier of league football.
  8. We'd lost more than just a few games - from the beginning of December until his departure we had taken 5 points from 11 games under JDT and were heading for relegation. The manager is employed to get results on the pitch not to talk about BS at the club - by doing so he gave the players an excuse for failing which they duly did.
  9. It's India where they will be worried about face - not here.
  10. I think Balaji saw himself as a "player" and owning a Premier League club was part of that - he sold the project to the rest of the family as a way of raising the Venkys profile on an international stage. Having made a complete mess of things they are prepared to lose a certain amount of money every year rather than admit they've got things wrong.
  11. Why buy a Premier League club if the objective is to plod along in the lower leagues ?
  12. I don't understand your post. My comments were about Eustace not JDT.
  13. I think the only people who will want to rip that statement apart are those who want to talk the club down.
  14. You're behind the times. We've already appointed John Eustace as manager.
  15. At least he understands the challenge that the Championship presents and has demonstrated some degree of competence in dealing with it. Hopefully supporters will give him a fair crack of the whip - this season is now just about not being relegated and then we go again next season.
  16. A sad end to JDT's tenure but, although circumstances were clearly difficult, he didn't help himself with what came across as a defeatist attitude and comments designed to shift blame on to others.
  17. Not if people around them - management or supporters - are making defeatist noise.
