  1. Perhaps he thinks we are doing well. Only conceded one, so far.
  2. I'm on to Grand children now, having one aged five. He lives and goes to school in the Preston area, but already owns two Rovers kits and won't let anyone say a wrong word about us. His mum is a staunch supporter of course, as is his Uncle Simon.
  3. I genuinely think that a lot of the problems here are down to the owners not being hands on and us having no one in authority to make the final decisions on spending. Yes the two fees for Gallagher and Brereton look way too high, but if we had a hands on chairman, who has the best intentions of the club, to sanction, or question the signings, perhaps these two wouldn't have happened and a different defence would now be available.
  4. From what I have read on another article Deloitte and the other firm of accountants that came in, did so, as there was money going missing that couldn't be explained. It seems that their forensic accountancy work, found out what the problem was and sorted it.
  5. I remember both Stonehouse and Lowey well. Both steady enough players and sad to hear of their passing.
  6. Perhaps he could get himself sacked for going on the lash and we can then sign him as a free agent.
  7. Six points minimum from those, starting with 3 V Boro next week. ?
  8. Last week was bad. Today was always going to be tough. Sitting bottom never feels nice, but I see us getting better over the next few weeks. Tosin looks good and once we have Lenihan playing alongside him and Cunningham in the side, we will be stronger and will stop shipping poor goals. Their first today was a good strike and not a lot you can do, We won’t threaten the top six I’m afraid, but I’m sure we will finish higher than last season.
  9. Playing out from the back, but looks dodgy
  10. Fulham playing a very dangerous game playing out from the back. We have pressed them and come close to making something off it a couple of times. Great strike by Cairney. Thought the defence were far better than last week. Tosin looks class. Gallagher having a good game too.
  11. It reminds me a bit of a former manager that who said we could go on a 10 game winning streak now, but we haven't got 10 games left? WTF is all that about?
  12. That's exactly why I firmly believe that they owners have not learned their lessons. I am convinced Mowbray would not have said what he did, had he not meant it, but here we are 3 months later and it hasn't been sorted. There are still outside influences in my opinion, affecting what goes on and that has happened since the very day the owners turned up.
  13. They tickets did go on sale and were withdrawn again, as the fans kicked off about the prices. the main gripe was there are no season tickets on sale at the minute and the season ticket holders missed a match last year, as their last home game V Brentford was cancelled. They were priced at £24 and no reductions for last seasons season ticket holders. I don't know if the are having a rethink about the process, given the reaction, or there is something more sinister going on. Serious trouble ensues come what may though.
  14. I find it incredible to be honest that certain people think that the past is the past and lessons have been learnt. Venkys will never learn their lessons and hiding away in India, funding the club for some strange reason, does not mean they have learned their lessons. They still have no proper structure or plan for the club and just lurch from one disaster to another. Do not be surprised to see a relegation battle again this year, another managerial casualty and some cheap chancer brought in to put it right.
  15. It won't help with FFP at all, as it was designed to stop this happening in the first place. It does depend of course what the funds are used for, as some of it would be ignored, if for example, it was used toward the academy. It is still frightening how much money the owners need to keep pumping into the club to keep it going. A lot has been self inflicted, but I still see no reason, why they keep on with this.
  16. I did fear we would be down there for a while and spare the thought, wondered if we would drop even further. After the ridiculous appointment of Coyle I guess the only way was up and thankfully we have moved in the right direction. Understandably fans now want success in this division and a return to the top flight, so Mowbray's credit has now run out with most people and he is about to feel a real backlash, unless the next 5 games, show an improvement.
  17. I have followed this a fair bit, as I have family and close fans, who are Wanderers fans. I can’t see a way out of this for them and hope they somehow survive. Sounds like Bury are also in serious trouble. Could this be the start of the combustion of football, that many have predicted?
  18. Exactly. Its more a fans thing too the rivalry and although it is fierce, if it makes sense for the clubs and the player.
  19. Bolton are 2/1 against being relegated at the minute, which looks like printing money to me. In fact, I would go as far as to say that Salford to be promoted and Bolton to be relegated at a shade over 15/2 is a must for any football punter and even Salford to win League two and Bolton to go down, at 23/1 looks tasty.
  20. I agree. I first saw him in a night match at Ewood and went into the work the following day, to tell the Dingles there we had a huge star on our hands. He was as good a prospect I had seen come through the ranks in years. Amazing how his fee alone, almost paid Venkys back what they paid for the club.
  21. I think that's the bigger issue here. If we have been tracking him for at least a season as reported, then to see him plucked from under out noses like that, doesn't bode well.
