  1. Worst part is that we've played a lot of the really bad teams in this league and they've pretty much all battered us. I haven't looked at our fixtures but I'm assuming that we're coming against all the play-off teams in the run-in. We're done for. JDT out, Waggott out, Venky's out. In literally any order.
  2. Sammie injured - there was our only chance of staying up - if you didn't laugh you'd cry.
  3. I don't see how even with another person in charge we survive a real relegation fight. You need grit and experience to grind out results, not 20 year olds and tippy tappy football that they'll insist on for "the model".
  4. All of our January signings probably looking at O'Riordan thinking "Unlucky son, you've got to stick with this garbage in League One"
  5. We are 100% going down if we keep JDT. It may not be 100% his fault, but something has to change.
  6. Not even if the last 2 months of performances have been equally as poor? It's not like it's a one-off, in which case I'd have agreed with you.
  7. Especially as I think it was clear that playing for Rovers was his dream, and the club have pushed him out because he was too good. I bet he dreamed of being able to pull us back up to the PL and playing for us there - I highly doubt at any point in his life he sat there thinking "I will do anything to play for Palace".
  8. I've called for JDT to go for a while as it seems blatantly obvious that he this style of football makes us far, far too open at the back. However I'm conflicted. The club has screwed him over time and time and time again with false promises of money and real signings, only to find new reasons to not help him out. This latest window gives him nothing to develop beyond the end of the season and it looks increasingly likely he'll go before ever getting the opportunity to do anything. On the other hand, there have been plenty of managers in the past (eg Warnock, Big Sam etc) who have made instant changes to multiple clubs fortunes regardless of playing squad, or have pivoted to new styles of play to work with what they have, and there is no evidence here that JDT can do that. I can't help but feel sorry for him and that there is no positive way forward for Rovers whether he stays or goes. It has the potential to get very toxic.
  9. I really, really hope he manages to make an impact at Palace. If we forced him out and then it doesn't work out I'll be absolutely gutted for him. The fact he had to be forced out in the first place is bad enough.
  10. Ipswich's momentum has been dying for a few weeks now, the top two places will just be a fight of the 3 that came down and could throw money at it consequence free. Shame really as I'd hoped they'd cause an upset.
  11. This is must win for me. One thing I will say is that we now have some experience on the bench that can hopefully help the younger lads when they start flagging later in the game, so hopefully that's enough to get us over the line. And optimistic Rovers 2-1 QPR
  12. I don't expect this to be anything as he seems to be at Ewood for the game which is very different to the situation last season, but if they have managed to balls this up, I agree. Once with something like this is an egregious set of errors, twice can only be deliberate.
  13. Fleck is a good player, but that's what, 5 out of 6 who could leave in the summer? Absolutely zero long term strategy.
  14. Glad we have him but him being yet another loan gives me no hope he'll be here beyond the summer even with the buy agreement.
  15. Let's be honest, if they could sell everyone and just build a full squad of loans they would. Yet again we dumb down the squad by padding it with loans with no thought or plan on improving the squad in the longer term. There is no "model", just a complete scam.
  16. I don't think the margin between us and them is as big as you think, especially if we finish the window as we are now
  17. That's all well and good bit if that goes through and our deals don't, we're still in a detrimental position. And if Adam didn't want to go either then what was the point of any of this?
  18. I was hoping this would wake people up but some of the other supporters groups are somehow still defending the owners even if this is true. I just don't understand how you can look at all this and think "thank you Venkys for all you do for us". Hoping that something comes up today because if not I don't know how I can support a club that can repeatedly play with people like this.
  19. That's a horrible image to see, especially if we're going to go down the pan anyway.
  20. I don't buy that, what possible incentive in any scenario is there for Venkys to cancel all incomings AND outgoings?
  21. Venkys Out needs to be plastered over every stand at the weekend. I look back at all the cock-ups ober the years and think "things can't get worse" and every time they find a new way. No club will want to sell to us in the summer, why would they? We renege on every commitment.
  22. If Palace can't finalise Wharton in time for us to agree deals then he shouldn't be going. Simple as that really.
  23. If this is true then the campaign against Venkys needs to step up. If we can't spend any money, even when we sell players for record fees, there is literally no point in the club existing. Absolutely unbelievable, but at the same time absolutely what I expected to happen.
  24. If it does happen again a number of people at the club need to have their p45's handed in on Friday morning.
