Now that Bowyer has signed on again he has to rebuild his depleted squad, he needs CBs more than we do! and an owner still desperate to bail out. Having said that I think Bowyer has done a cracking job there and a great motivator.

I honestly did not think they could be so bent.

Fixtures out, makes me feel better already. Bring em on

You are applying good business practice to our owners. Think about that for a moment or two.

My previous post was not meant to be about Bauer but rather more general in that as at early May Alex Neil knew his budget and therefore which of his targets he could start going for. We are told that the Club is being 'rebuilt' and should, therefore, be judged over X number of years or X number of transfer windows. It seems to me that we actually have no 'masterplan' if the Club, TM and Waggott have to wait until they go to Pune to find out what the owners mood currently is and what funding will be available. The fact that such meetings appear to be on a yearly basis adds to the problem. No one can plan or run a business on such a basis. It is not a criticism of TM or Waggott apart from the fact that they seem to accept these ruinous working conditions.

Preston are run better imho

Where did I say that WUM? Do better or don't fecking bother.

https://www.lancs.live/sport/football/football-news/we-know-what-want-preston-16234835 7th May 2019: Alex Neil says he has clear targets in mind and knows the budget he will be working from as he targets an important summer. What a normal football Club is like!

That's buggered up any hope this insomniac had of getting at least a few hours kip

My money is on Bollocks.

Is he a reliable Twit?

It appears West Ham are not interested in Jones. Meanwhile ... https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/9323306/man-utd-ashley-young-chris-smalling-phil-jones-fans-petition/

Blackpool will have had a surge due to change of ownership and it can't be related to our sales. As you say it's the final figures that matter.

Is it yet possible to bet on the outcome of a VAR decision? In Stadium betting would at least give the fans something to do whilst waiting the 2 or 3 or longer minutes or however long it takes the officials to get their bets on. I'm joking of course! I think .....

Not seen that reason before, I thought he was on a normal night out in Glasgow, pissed and fighting

This is a tremendous addition to the MB and an excellent way of preserving our history in an easily accessible way. I look forward to the archive building up on the MB and thanks all those involved in this fine work.

I am glad I got to see that innings by Morgan! Good to see Moeen get a few great shots in at the end too.

The man got Rovers, me and 30,000 other Rovers fans a day out at Wembley and a win. A day never to be forgotten and I'm so grateful to him. Mackay and Saxton, my 2 all-time favourite managers, both massively underfunded.

Good point as I come from a family with diabetes in its history. One of the reasons I have not taken sugar in tea or coffee for 50 years. I'm careful too of the local diet which is sugar laced in lots of dishes. Doesn't exonerate Betting thieves though.

I wonder if the tie-up is that Morrisons have a quite recent deal, signed last year, to supply their own brand products to the Big C chain of stores in Thailand. I believe it's one of Morrisons first international ventures. I have never drunk a Carabao product either but like the Band (Carabao) and Beer House group (Tawangdang) that gave them their name.

Your problem seems to be with the Sponsors or is it with the draw being in a Shop? Carabao Tawangdang Co is very successful at what they do so why favour their rivals, which of course won't happen during the draw. Seems a bit petty to me. I'd rather have an energy drink as a sponsor than yet another Betting Co.

I hope things work out well for Bolton and Blackpool. Their fans have suffered for years so to now have new hope must be so encouraging. Meanwhile, we are stuck in the Venky SSDD Vortex

Clarity is what I was seeking, as Nuttall has been at the Club longer it's not a surprise. The really relevant one is when they are both at the Club and I would expect Brereton to get more game time at Rovers than Nuttall next season, who will possibly be away on loan anyway if we buy a CF.

Me too, I was just on about accuracy in posts
