Regarding loyalty, why would a player be loyal to rovers? Everyone wants to better themselves I don’t care what you say, have rovers shown any intent to better themselves? We’ve been stagnant for years and we will be for years to come. If we shown more ambition, intent, drive, and actually had a plan going forward we wouldn’t be seeing players leaving for your standard championship club, even worse managers leaving for relegation threatened clubs. We’re a club that doesn’t build upon the good, we allow key players to leave for buttons and replace with nobody’s, can’t even remember the last time we had a outstanding player and thought let’s add to him, not this club, sell him, replace cheaper and start the cycle again. Would I want to be apart of that if I was a player? They know the club is rotten, boring, and run by clowns.

Account started in June, gets transfers info before anyone else, is very defensive when it comes to people criticising the club operations. 
 

Im not one for conspiracy theories, but I would say with some certainty he/she is a club employee, or someone close to a club employee. 

They have said they work at the club a few weeks ago. 

I’m all for getting players in but shopping at pound land is a joke. Another season going by showing zero ambition Mer. Give the fans abit of hope please 😂

Ifs, buts and maybes. Actions speak louder than words so get on with it. 

Lots of teams making some solid signings now and spending some serious money. While some of our fans are happy we’ve spent 30p whilst losing 2-3 key players for nadda 🤣🤣🤣

How can we know whether a manager signs off on every signing or not?

I’d argue there isn’t much choice, take what we can get in regardless of ability. 2 players in, peanuts spent, squad weaker than last year. (So far)

and what happens if the wage cap rumour is wrong? 

I wouldn't have been offering Batth a straight 2 year contract if that what Derby have offered him to sign there. 

Eustace jumped ship cos he wanted more say and mostly full control of transfers which he now as Derby I would guess hence when you look at his signings they are former players of his from previous clubs or experience championship players like Morris. That's is how he wants his squad. Rovers want to explore the overseas like we done the last 2 summers windows with some signings which have worked out and we are looking at continue with the plan from Gestede, Owen and Ismael.

Eustace jumped ship because it’s a shit show, just like JDT, I’d bet ismael won’t be far behind. Also it’s suhails plan. Cost cutting, spend cheap, sell anything decent. Been going on for years now, noticed you pass the blame on to those who leave tho, it’s NEVER suhail or venkys 🤗

Dolan out of contract, brittain Travis tronstad heading that way, if it’s not the clubs fault who’s it 🤣🤣 some would argue the clubs best 4 players. Any other club in the championship giving away there prize assets? Brereton free, szmodics Wharton sold on the cheap. Not the clubs fault tho.

no one has blame the players for asking for more have we? 

and just to be clear I ain't blaming Rovers either. I see all 3 players has key players so I would put them on good wages and make them highest earners here but also you have to be careful cos of the knock on effect of that cos then other players agents will be knock on the door asking for new contracts and higher wages for their players. 

That’s rubbish, nobody deserves to be on as much as brittain, Travis, or tronstad. Our 3 key players should be our highest earners, there isn’t anyone else in the squad who has the right to ask to be on the same as them. 

I’d offer batth a 2 year deal, 2nd year being on reduced terms and more likely a back up, unless he has a great season again. 
 

on the other hand if I was him I’d pick Derby.

and anyone hating on Wrexham, they’d beat us to most players in a head to head battle as it currently stands. 
 

shows how much of a fucked up club we’ve become. 

Surprise surprise, phase 1 season tickets end and they start to piss the fan base off again.

I'm amazed about that really, I thought they would trigger him and Vale just to have bodies around for pre season before shipping them both out again.

The retained list seems a bit more ruthless than usual, which I am a fan of.

I'm glad we are getting no return on him, pointless at this club.

I'm not a huge fan of Hedges, but he's a much better option that Markanday.

I agree I don’t mind hedges, along as there is someone better in front of him 👍

why would we offer him anything? has he been a success at Orient? 

You’re happy we’ve triggered hedges, who hasn’t been a success at rovers.

I want JRC to stay. I think he's a good player. He's been played out of position far too many times. He is a right sided attacking midfielder. Rather have him as back up to Tronstad and Travis than Forshaw.

I’d be a very happy LB if JRC was on the right attacking lining up against me. 

If we’re looking to progress and are looking up, hedges Weimann and forshaw are toast. 

If we’re skint again because the club isn’t being backed, then sure sign them up.

Maybe because he said we aren’t supporting the team as we should 👍🏻

Refusing to play also, forcing a move, and the way he genuinely talks shite. 

Another season goes by all fart no poo, another criminally underbacked January has cost the club once again, I make that 3/5 seasons the club have failed the players and fans in helping with a final push. Fair play to the players and staff that tried to make it happen, it’s not your fault, the owners have failed you. 
 

try enjoy the break everyone, and we’ll see what bullshit they come up with in a couple of months time.

Zero ambition is what I got from that, how can you keep building a club up when you’re  looking  to sell your better players every year or even worse let your better players go for free, Doesn’t matter how much money we make or where we finish in the leagues the budget will never change. 
 

expensive season ticket to see the U18s

Farce. 

No pressure nothing to play for rovers. 
(bar a miracle) 

Excellent result, excellent week, shame about the last 3 months.

get the fuck out of here. 

I know a few are angry at the players, but we know full well this team has been full of mediocre players, superb first half to the season, injuries, fatigue, loss of form, it was always going to catch up, the club have let these players down in January, instead of signing 3/4 who can challenge/cement a place the starting 11, we signed even more mediocre players to sit on the bench. If I was a key player I’d be fucking pissed. Simply 4-6 players who should be nowhere near that line up and the club failed to back them and Eustace.
