It would be nice if Vale showed even a modicum of effort. You don't become a good player by just ambling around as he does.

I hesitate to criticise JDT but what the hell does he see in Vale??

Hopefully they're getting some of the several players whose contracts expire in 2024 signed up for extensions. Dolan. Carter and JRC are just three of those in that boat. Does anyone think it'll actually happen?

You couldn't have watching Gallagher. He phoned in his contribution.

How poor was Gallagher when he came on! Dolan is a fraction of his height and weight yet offered much more in a central position. Gally looks like a player going through the motions. Must be rid this summer.

And for next season.

In 12 months time Rovers will be where Wigan are now.

He looks like a low grade second hand car salesman and just spouts vacuous management speak. Ridiculously overpaid at £300k ++. Should be a clerk in a station ticket office.

He's injured.

Player might decide against. Easier to sit on the bench or in the stand for 3 months.

Looking like Venkys are staging a managed decline into L1 so as to reduce the losses covered by their funding. Fully expect relegation next season.

Hendrick, Carroll and Long. All better than Vale and Gallagher.

Reading are in an embargo and have still managed to sign better players on loans and free transfers than GB has.

Signing nobody might well mean an opportunity for Harry Leonard.

Reading sign experienced players and they're under a transfer embargo. Broughton is clearly way out of his depth

Paul McKinnon was the all-time low. We're getting close though.

Ruptured achilles tendon. Out for "a long, long time" according to TM who is hoping Everton will release Ellis Simms.

Funny isn't it that JRC's form improves dramatically just when there's 18 months left on his contract? He played like a drain in the first 18 months.

The share capital is in the holding company which has lent the funds to the operating company. If the net assets of that company - mainly property - are realised in a liquidation, that amount is repaid to the holding company and returned to the Venkys in the course of its liquidation Venkys get some of their funding returned and Blackburn Rovers is just a name with no assets.

They both look like 5-aside players but useless in a physical man's game.

He's costing a goal every match with his slapdash approach.

Quite intolerable that Morton has to play because of the loan terms. Even Travis would be better.

We'll get them back to winning ways as usual.

Would it matter if Tomasson "walked"? The results may be on a par with this stage last season but the football quality is dismal and 3/4 goal humiliations are regular.

Very good according to my Reading season ticket holder. A bit lazy and moody but we know that from his time on loan in 2017.
