I think we are to be honest. I know Gally for instance gets quite a bit of stick on here (or Mowbray for playing him wide) but if he was in the L1 team in the Antonsson role, he would've impossible to deal with at that level. 

Yeah, Gallagher would have probably done better than Antonsson, do you think he would have done better than Graham thou? 
I dont know, it feels like we are a better team now and yet every single transfer windows since we got away from league 1 has been a failure 

Genuine question:

Do you guys think our team as individuals is better than the League 1 squad? 

Back then we had Mulgrew, Downing, Graham, Raya and Antonsson

Since then we ve singed and are left with Bell, Brereton, Gallagher, Johnson and Rothwell (And the New goalie)

Appparently Niklas Schmidt has been liking Blackurns posts again on instagram or something (I can't verify as I'm not on Instagram so could be nonsense). A quick Google though shows we may have been interested in him in Jan. I wonder if there's anything in this one.. Looks quite a promising player.

He liked the Fixtures post on instagram

Edit: Apparently he has liked the last 4-5 Rovers posts 

I mean.. season hasnt even started yet and we all know its going to be a failure.

We will do just about alright to stay above the last 3

Cairney should feel very lucky to still be on the pitch after that tackle. 
Brentford kinda unlucky not to get a penalty just a second before Cairney’stackle too

Bristol City paid some money for him. He doesn’t play much thou

Make up call by the ref then - typical Raya howler. Stonewall pen. 

Nah, never a pen.

P.s. great goal this.

I am very curious why hasnt Steve Cooper put Celina in yet? Think he can win them the game

Id take Bennett off for Johnson and Id place Downing as a LB. Arma for Gallagher is also a must

all wigan so far

yeah or this with Rothwell having a go at that False 9 malarky.

Walton

Nyambe Adarabioyo Lenihan Downing

Bennet Travis Holtby

Gallagher Rothwell Brereton

 

I think we will be lined up like this:

walton

Nyambe  Tosin Lenihan Bennett
Rothwell Travis Downing

Brereton Holtby Gallagher 

I actually expect us to win this one. 
Rothwell and Brereton should both start along with Arma.

Idk but this is one dire game of football 

Brentford v West Brom, who is everybody cheering for?

Does anyone know if Butterworth is back from injury?

Won 4-2 today

One of them is Dacky so Rovers might end up disqualified anyways

New FIFA tournament have started and Rovers are one of the 54 teams that have joined it.

Dack is the player who will represent us and we were drew in group M, along with Walsall, Tinn Harps and Crewe Alexandra.

Dont know much more about the tournament and the matches so any updates will be much appreciated. 

Derby 20 times better than us.

Gallagher, Bennett and Brereton are around league 1 level. Crazy we paid 12 mil. for two of them. Even crazier most of them play week in, week out.

The rest of the team are good enough to just about make a play off push. Its not easy when you have to compensate for 2-3 players every match thou.
Having said that- everyone was shit today.

This would be my guess:

................Walton

.........Nyambe Towin Bell

..Bennett Travis Rothwell Downing

.................Armstrong 

.......Samuel .........Gallagher 

Actually no. I have no idea

Whats the point of the 3 strikers on the bench?

Rothwell travis and armstrong only decent ones out there

Downing and Johnson are also having good games imo.

The condition of the pitch is terrible
