I have to admit that I've never listened or watched him in any pre or post match interviews. Begrudgingly I did admire how he always had Luton up for a fight and how he made Amari Bell into a decent player at Championship level. Meanwhile he gets a big payoff for 3 months of league failure and possibly bad enough to relegate Southampton.

It's his nail biting and finger sucking that gets to me, can't stand the disgusting habit. Soton made the wrong choice in appointing him and maybe he made the wrong choice in going to the PL with Soton, his bank manager will disagree, in disarray.

I wonder if he's still on about the rejection of our appeal to the registration rejection OR our subsequent appeal to the rejection of our previous appeal to the registration rejection. It surely can't be the latter, which would mean Rovers already know....

Guardiola needs to be told a simple truth, when in a hole STFU and stop digging.

Thanks to Watford FC via YouTube I found these 5 minute highlights, having missed the game live. I'll watch the full game later.

So, Rovers made the appeal so the EFL will Rovers the outcome. When Rovers will tell the outside world..... Yes, of course they will as soon as they are told.

It's all part of the ongoing dumbing down process to try to cover the fact there is no plan, no journey, no project. These grifters knowingly signed up to a con and quickly become part of the fabric. For years I have struggled with how some can't see through it and just accept the deceit which seeps through Ewood. Mowbray was at Rovers so long he went through the whole bullshitting playbook. Nothing JDT can come out with is news to those who listen and remember.

"If you look at the results, which I don’t do, but people do, media do, which is normal" At least the grinning grifter admits he's not normal. in denial and a waste of space.

Rovers get half of the gate plus a share of any TV income.

The minutes of the FF meeting as posted on the Rovers website, that took place on 9th January 2023, are incorrectly dated in the header and also in Item 2.

They are in a time warp, explains a lot. Easy to miss by seconds when you get the Century wrong. "Our 1888-89 Retro Range is now back in stock at the Roverstore! We sold out of items when we first went on sale, and with plenty of popular pieces available, you'll have to be quick before all our cult classics leave the shelves again! One glance at the selection and the memories will come flooding back for every Rovers fan who was around for the era. The likes of Colin Hendry, Scott Sellars and Simon Garner were all part of the team" https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2023/february/09/retro-range-back-in-stock-/

Thanks for the detailed explanation. I knew nothing about it before but once I grasped the basics it became clearer.

"Home grown" is an interesting use of this term. Actual nationality has been adequately rebutted above. The unwary might think it means a product of our academy. It's obviously not that so the term maybe should be interpreted as covering players who have come through our academy system and those acquired from footballs pound Shop or loan flea market. No it can't be that either as whilst Morton and Mola are loans so is Thomas who shows up as"Home Grown". I most certainly wouldn't trust our admin lot in running a fruit and veg stall in old Blackburn market.

The appeal process is just a convenient was of dragging this charade on hoping it will become dust under the carpet In Broughtons open and honest, I mean that most sincerely, statement to the fan base post appeal rejection he must give a timeline of that fateful day. Who was doing what and where and at what time. He needs to clear the air about the external factors he alleges. I suspect that the EFL and Forest will be listening to that with interest. I expect misdirection.

Excellent. You addressed the "State of the Rovers" and "entitlement" jibe spot on. I did like the Watford guys contributions and that they gave us the platform.

There is no way we will stop Watford from scoring. We might score 1. The best we can hope for is a 1-1 I think that the inclusion of Thomas wide right has boosted Travis and helped him play a more expansive game. Someone worthwhile to pass to. We will scratch around until the end of the season trying permutations to try and find a way to score with our recognised strikers not really fit for purpose. I am still struggling with our pathetic window and failure to address our obvious main weakness. GB failed dismally and this will impact our season much more than missing out on a midfielder that we, imho, probably didn't want come the 11th hour. I would be ecstatic not to see Morton ever again in a Rovers shirt. Give ours the midfield.

WOW, that a rogues gallery of the not fit for purpose. Is that at the Turd, taking the chance to see a how proper club operates? If Broughton took off his posh coat he'd look like a bagman that you'd give 10p to.

If we make today's 4pm UK time appeal submission deadline without any spelling errors it will be taken as absolute proof that lessons have been learnt. The appeal will fail and we can stop with the pretence that we wanted to sign an expensive midfielder after having failed miserably to sign the main target - - any bloody striker. I'm looking forward to full disclosure by Broughton as he promised.

We do have a couple who have a "fly" in their locker, JRC and Travis maybe Wharton. I think a Buckley double petulance pretending he's a Billy big balls is more likely. A fired up Rovers? That ain't happening.

He will help with keeping our xG at the league's lowest. Too expensive even free.

Yes, classic misdirection with a dollop of "woe is me" for good measure. Thing is though it works on our dumbed down fan base.

Great player, great goal and in the build up conclusive proof that Spain, Barcelona and Guardiola did not invent tippy tappy.

Thomas crosses low and fast. Get Dack up the field and into the box every time Thomas makes a run. Same applies on freekicks. At least Dack has natural instinct to read play and get on the end of such a cross.

Not yet. GB in his interview says success in the appeal is doubtful. No club has ever won such an appeal against an EFL ruling.
