  1. Oh Oh Eustace ....... another Coventry old boy...........
  2. They’ll probably fill it out wrong or send it to Ricky Tomlinson……..
  3. Anyone up for contacting Andy Cole for a statement on what he thinks of Waggott and his influence on the decline of the club?? [ I'll be the first to admit that I wouldnt know where to start.......]
  4. in a nutshell...... Rovers were always [even under Bill Fox when cash was tight and a £35k signing was a stretch] well-regarded nay admired, as a well run club punching above its weight - Since Venkys came, John Williams left, and a series of dubious advisors/agents and their stooges got the keys to the safe, it's rapidly becoming a laughing stock. Lewis O'Brien's and then McGuire's examples will go a long way to ruining any lingering reputation as Rovers being a club to do business with, or even take seriously regarding player transfers, or being a club that any ambitious player would want to join. A cynic might take a view that Waggot is probably only in the chair because Venus, [aided and abetted by Mowbray] alluded to a cut of a development land sell-off, and the chance to get the Cov gang back together......to say his performance in the role is lamentable understates it. It simply can't continue like this, sadly it looks at this stage very much like only HMRC or the Indian Courts can put us out of our misery
  5. Wouldn't it have been priceless if Adam W had seen from last night's fiasco that Venkys had no intention of using the proceeds of his sale to strengthen the team his big brother will still play for, and simply turned round and said "if I'm being sold just to pay off the Venkys, the deal's off...." [and yes I do know that it's professional sport, chance of premier league etc, but sometimes looking out for the family counts.......]
  6. Will McGuire the Yank need international clearance ?? How long will that take if the ‘back room staff’ are doing the paperwork??
  7. Speaking of Raya........anyone know what's happening with his loan to Arsenal being made permanent? - thought that was supposed to bring in some sell-on clause cash to underwrite some transfer activity.........[or pay off the Indian tax-man obvs]
  8. That'll be a nightmare for the shirt printer---- we'll just call him Jazzy for short
  9. might depend on the Raya to Arsenal deal coming permanent and the sell-on money.....Ramsdale getting a run-out and flapping about like a drowning puppy might make this more likely
  10. Kevin Moran........Nicky Marker......Mark Hughes.....
  11. hypothetical maybe considering finances, but if he was willing, [presumably Villareal would be] - would we take him back on loan in January??
  12. Apologies if mentioned somewhere else, but any indication that an appeal has actually been submitted ?? assuming the CEO / DoF can decide who's job it might be to fill the EFL forms in [ they've got previous for not being able to do that properly, will probably end up appealing a red card for Adam Wharton]
  13. Colin Randall........
  14. Wonder what odds you maybe got in a Pune bookies for Rovers failing to make the playoffs when they were 2nd in the table before Xmas??
  15. sadly next year's Championship may end up being ruined by each of Everton, Southampton and Leicester being in it - complete with parachute payments and vaguely competent management.
  16. most likely 3 train drivers hanging about on Nuttall Street
  17. anyone who can muster a fast jog looks good against us...............Rovers must be the slowest set of plodders in the league
  18. Yeah.....probably Kaminski
  19. Just a quick note for travelling fans - Bristol has implemented a vehicle emissions zone - starts at end of M32 and soon after leaving M5 onto the portway——it’s £9 entry for non-compliant vehicles. for killers concert in summer at Ashton Gate we used the avonmouth park and ride - regular buses straight into the city and a pretty good service.
  20. Out of interest - which pub?? Grew up in Chorley - though haven’t been back for 15 yrs or so…….
  21. he's probably checking if Rovers made an approach for Jimmy Anderson
  22. Ive a few years on you then [which is probably why I missed the 'r' off never] - still have the programme from when Moore played at Ewood for Fulham!! (Bobby Moore-Neve sounds like someone Shebby would've signed]
  23. AAArggh - Bobby Moore Neve spring to mind!!!
