G Somerset Rover

Fleck out for a couple of weeks; JRC for a month. As good a player as the latter is, we simply cannot rely on him as he's made of glass.

Indeed. Just said to a mate, why is it that the opposition can regularly come back against us, but not the other way round? Same with the oppositions ability to score later winners and equalisers. So bloody miserable supporting us.

Well I predicted we’d get thumped, so 2-2 is at least something. We have the spine of a jellyfish, mind.

100%. Even when I posted it in the heat of the moment post-Brum, I still genuinely feel this is the most nailed on defeat I can remember in my 30 years of supporting Rovers. Zero chance we win this, or even put up a good fight IMO.* *Goes without saying that I hope I’m wrong.

As a Rovers fan of 30+ years I don’t think I’ve ever been more confident of correctly predicting the outcome of our next match as I am for this coming Saturday. If we don’t lose by at least 2 clear goals against that lot then I’ll be gobsmacked.

As do every single one of our loan signings. I refuse to believe we don’t have better in the under 23s. Gilsenen looks like Salah compared to Moran. That kid is absolutely shite.

Fella could play til next Christmas and not score. Extremely concerning night considering this is Eustace’s first proper game in charge. If the lads can’t get up for that, then when the hell can they?

Absolutely shambolic recruitment from Broughton. How can not one of them be half decent?!

The Liverpool lad tops it. He can’t even make our bench!!

100%. Summer was the time to sell for any normal functioning football club. Felt numb watching him perform well last night. He should still be in a Rovers shirt.

Huge shame we couldn’t get him a league one loan given we just never use him. Half a season there would have done him the world of good.

Well connected fan on Twitter says he's gone.

Exciting times to look forward to then.

I highly suspect we won't have one in time to take charge. My prediction is Eustace will finally be announced but it'll be Lowe/Johnson. We're losing. No two ways about it.

I would say I'm surprised but in reality none of us are. 24 hours away from a huge fixture and JDT is just casually strolling round the training centre saying his goodbyes, with Eustace not yet on board. Who is doing tactics?! David Lowe?! Fuck me. We are an absolute circus. Laying a Mercer on us losing tomorrow - nothing is more certain.

If this massive delay in announcing JDTs departure isn’t giving him red flags then I don’t know what will. Welcome to the mad house (if you ever arrive).

Apologies if it’s already been posted but Myers reckons we’re still sorting out the paperwork for JDT. You couldn’t make it up.

JDT when Leo approaches him about a National call up before he leaves Brockhall for the last time…

You are probably right in what you say but it's still quite frankly ridiculous though that a Mirror journo has announced that JDT has left by quote, "mutual consent", yet nothing from the club. His full article: "JDT's Blackburn exit has been confirmed": https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/breaking-blackburn-jon-dahl-tomasson-32071220. By who?!

Yet nothing official from the club. Can they even be arsed to make a statement? Probably not? "Oh JDT? Yeah he left by mutual consent. Next"

Not doubting your intel Glen, but it’s a bit odd that this fella is suddenly buggering up on a grand scale when he’s processed hundreds of transfers over the course of his career.

Surely there is now no doubt that Broughton joins JDT through the exit door. Whether it was his fault or not, he cannot survive this given his interview last year.

There ain’t no chance in hell that Venky’s are shelling out relative big bucks on any deal - let alone a pre contract agreement. Yet more nonsense from the club.

100%. He’s always wanted to play league one football.

The club love an announcement late in the day. Guessing because they spend most of it chasing the idiots in Pune for sign off.
