That *was* the January Window

Unfortunately the same clowns who couldn't get those deals done are still in situ. -

Considering he was out of position, I thought Travis did OK at left back against Watford so maybe he can cover. Oh wait.... -

Of course you can. The fact Undav travelled up to meet Rovers suggests he was seriously considering joining. After he met us, he decided to stop and fight for his place. We clearly didn’t ’sell the club’. -

I see Undav has hit 9 goals in 15 Bundesliga games this season. That was a huge turning point in our fortunes this time last year when he met Broughton and GB failed to convince him to come. He’d have got a bagful in our league. -
v Wrexham (h) - FA Cup - 29/1/24, 7:30pm

Also expect the strongest team because if we win we get an extra £120k, and that could pay for opening the Blackburn End for the next 20 league cup games. -
BBD has one job to do for us this season, and that’s in late April.

v Huddersfield Town (h) - 20/01/2024

Ok until they equalised, and then we shrank. Following their equaliser we should really have lost based on Huddersfield having the best 3 chances. Important point, but worrying. -
I’ve always loved it. At the moment, because there is no dominant force, it’s especially engaging. The Premier League will knock the enthusiasm out of you though. The same 8 players playing each other every week for 4 months with little decided until the last couple of weeks. 😴😴😴

I’m only pointing out that your statement about “Once upon a time when the football authorities had balls, players caught gambling were given life time bans” is very misleading and inaccurate. I fully get why footballers gambling isn’t allowed and get the points you make above. He’s broke the rules and served a ban. The ban could potentially have been longer to be fair. But a lifetime ban would have been way OTT.
-
As above, as in as my reply above yours. They were all banned for match fixing, not for simply gambling on games. Some of them admitted ensuring that their teams lost the game to ensure the outcome. There’s no evidence that’s anything like what Toney was doing.

As above.

Was banned and jailed for match fixing of games he was involved in, which is different than betting on your team to lose games which you are not playing in.

I’d start Gallagher and JRC for Leonard and Moran. And then replace Adam Wharton with Garrett to see if we get more protection for the defence. -
Who was ever banned for life for gambling on football games?

He's been told by Waggot and Broughton "Stop complaining else we will sell Pears". -

Szmodics only got 7 goals that season in the same side. -

Moran, McKenzie, Hughes, Cowans etc.. were players who had played at the peak level of English football. They may have not been quite what they were when they arrived at Ewood, but as their ability levels had been so high they were still good enough for the second tier. That's different than signing very old players who generally have been second tier journeymen for most of their career. They are now are not quite what they were, so they are probably league one standard. -

In my eyes Lenihan was ok at this level. Hyam looked slightly better last season, but is currently playing quite a bit worse. That’s basically it. -

You said you couldn’t see any similarities. You got told some. Nobody said there weren’t any differences. -

Unless sending him out allows us to bring in someone better, letting him go would be barmy. -

Happy clapper, bury your head nonsense, probably written by someone who has been seduced by Waggott and his pals offer of biscuits and cups of tea. -

Even more weird is the expense of taking it to a legal appeal when we didn't seem to have a leg to stand on, nor a pot to piss in. -

It also removes the safety net of "all the debt is to the owners so there is nothing to worry about". It makes the sale of a club less likely without administration as there now becomes debts which have to be repaid and can't be wiped off.
