Not surprised - but if I were Rovers I would tell the EFL that if the loss of three points mean we get relegated (or less likely) miss out on the chance of promotion we reserve the right to take them to court for loss of earnings.

Playing the last 10 minutes will actually favour Ipswich - as they will have a fresh team (rather than one having played part of the match with 10 players). They will also have the opportunity to set up their team to best get an equaliser. So, though I agree it is the nearest we can get to fairness, still think Ipswich would get an advantage. However, all moot, as I think we will be ordered to replay (put money on Ipswich moaning about fixture congestion later in the season 🙂 )

Well, transfer window went from a let's wait and see how the new guys do - to an absolute disaster. We were already weak at centre half without selling our most consistent and experienced defender. I appreciate £2.7m for Hyam with only a year left on his contract was in isolation a good deal - but not just before the window closes and not to a league rival.

Last minute deal - I bet we won't mess up the paperwork on this one - strange isn't it

If the rumoured fees are to be believed - not certain it has been cheap. Totally agree on the gamble bit though - Gestede and VI (and our season) will hinge on whether these gambles pay off or not - as there isn't enough experience in what remains of last year's team to keep us out of trouble if they don't at least partially pay off.

Don't want to risk another eruption in Iceland again 🤣

Travis hasn't actually gone yet is the current difference.

A good win against a virus hit Hull. To me summed what the Championship is about - we took our chances, they missed or we saved theirs. Once ahead we played with great flair and control - but did get the run of the ball at times (if not the referee). So good win, some nice performances and return to form of certain players like Cantwell and Tronstad - but doesn't cover up lack of pace up front or Kagbo going off with his thigh quickly strapped up. But as with the defeats we suffered, it was fine margins - which for once went our way.

With so little Championship experience in key positions - Tronsdat and Hyam still not signed up - it is really an all or bust approach. I struggle to think of a team that has gambled on so many players at the same time. If Gestede and VI pull it off will be remarkable and they will deserve all the plaudits. Even with my blue and white tinted glasses I can't see pigs flying.

I think when it doesn't effect your mood - that is the time to give up.

Not with our squad

Trying to look on positives : Tavares, Tyjon, Wharton all had reasonable matches. Axel looked like there may be a player there. The real positive, we don't have to worry about Cup matches as we likely fight relegation. Yet another Venky first- over a hundred years since Bradford beat us at Ewood. They really are the gift that just keeps giving.

How is that not a free kick ?

Sorry - you were saying - lol

Can someone tell Pickering that he can pass it forward as well as backwards
