Belgium podcast soccer journalist far from complimentary about De Neve. Lacks creativity and rarely attempts on goal. Was not considered to be one of their better players in a team that's been fighting relegation from a lower standard league than the Championship. Also mentioned that the club has been badly run so all in all he should feel at home at Rovers. Might be ok in L1 the season after next.

Going the same way as Blackpool about 10 years ago under the Oystons. An absolutely abysmal squad for next season.

Looks all set for Pasha to take control. Grim ptospect.

Bottom 3 from start to finish. Can't be anything else when the squad will lose its best 5 players for very little compensation and the self-serving Gestede is running the recruitment.

Tyjon off to Man U apparently.

Hull are much more likely to go down as they need to get at least a draw at Portsmouth and that seems unlikely.

Unbelievably his wonder goal against Watford last season mostly involved his right foot.

Hull just missed out on the playoffs last season and most of their best players in the following summer. That's Rover this summer.

Normal service resumed.

It's the hope that kills you....

Gueye did no pressing whatsoever in the last few minutes when Sunderland had possession around the halfway line. Barely moved a muscle. Ismael's evident liking for Woodrow probably means he gets a contract😬

Won't happen.

Noticeable that Dismael pretty much ignores his players when doing the "victory lap" at the end. His priority is to wave to the 3 Stooges.

Travis carrying a knock and various other players returning after long absences. Another match in 3 days. Seems sensible to me.

You haven't mentionned all the players likely to be leaving because of the dire contracts situation. Dolan (for sure), Travis, Hyam and Tronstadt all into their final year and the 3 Stooges itching to cash in to keep the lights on. What's left are the players nobody wants.

Gestedes comment is completely out of order for a senior employee. It's what you would expect for some on work experience only last year.

Pasha looks a nasty piece of work.

They include seasonticket holders even if they don't attend.

Absolute joke. Reflects the way the club is run from top to bottom.

Absolutely spot on.

Probably, to be replaced by the usual free transfers and loans plus Academy players who are either not ready or not good enough. And it will all come with another bout of unspent transfer income and a further reduction in the payroll. Relegation is nailed on for next season but the owners and their 3 overpaid stooges will be content with that.

Gueye is a complete liability. He gets booked early on for ridiculous challenges and has to be taken off for fear of a red card to follow. Also he just charges around with no awareness of what's around him. Although Ohashi has his limitations the attack looked more potent and likely to score after he came on at half time.

Bayes should have asked why so many senior staff have walked out/handed in notice this season. John Park and the academy head Stuart Jones in particular. He should also have asked about the rumoured loss of Cat 1 status this summer although the answer would have been the usual pack of lies. Also how has Guestede been propelled from work experience guy to (effectively) director of football in the space of 12 months? How does his business qualification help in coaching-related issues? Whilst Bayes interview was a bit more searching then the earlier in-house feather duster whitewash, it was still excessively deferential and certainly did not reflect the anger of most of the supporters.

I don't even understand what Ismael is saying in his interviews. His thoughts are often random and unconnected. Entire sentences make no sense. Even allowing for the language difference he is anything but a clear thinker. God only knows what impressed the clowns who interviewed him.

Just as well that Lowe took 6 points from the 3 matches he was in charge. Without that it really would be squeaky bum time now.
