  1. The appointment of Grayson would be on a par with Coyle as an absolute disaster. He'd probably bring Dunn with him so Venkys in their usual madcap way would probably think it would be popular with the fans - that's if they give it any thought at all.
  2. Edun plays like a headless chicken. Poor passing, aimless dribbling and reckless challenges.
  3. The era og cheap imports from Europe is over unfer the point system post - Brexit. Several of the players thay Farke signef for Norwich including Pukki would not br allowed now. It needd a manager with a forensic knowledge of play in the lower leagues.
  4. Brererton will get a move but his indifferent form since Xmas id likely to deter suitors and reduce the prospective transfer fee. It could run until the transfer deadline and scupper any plans for incoming transfers. We've seen it all before with Duffy and Armstrong.
  5. Phillips hasn't featured in any squad for months.
  6. QPR might also be interested in Ainsworth as he's a legend there.
  7. Wharton's lack of pace had been utterly exposed in the past couple of months. He looks like he's dragging a ball and chain. Coupled with the sluggish Pickering it's a recipe for disaster on the left side of the defence.
  8. Bye bye Mowbray. Can only hope his replacement is better. Not a particularly high bar.
  9. A bit optimistic to say "soon". Venkys probably won't have a replacement before the players return for pre-season. That's the way they do things.
  10. Dolan is a circus act. He just twizzles and goes round in circles. My dog has more of a football brain.
  11. FFS SACK MOWBRAY NOW! Prospects for next season are frightening if that muppet is allowed to continue.
  12. Not even on the bench. His attitude stinks.
  13. Venkys search for a new manager never amounts to more than a call to their favourite agency asking who they've got looking for a job. They employ about as much due diligence as most people would to finding a new cleaner.
  14. It looked to me that Dack did damage to his left knee in that final challenge with the defender. I suspect his "devastation" relates to that rather than disappoint with the result. If he's not in the squad for Monday fear the worst.
  15. If Lenihan thinks he's a Premier League player he's utterly deluded.
  16. The January signings are a pile of utter dross.
  17. Absolutely. He makes so many errors with either poor control or passing and rash tackling that he's an accident waiting to happen. Just another useless Mowbray signing.
  18. So it's Tony Pulis then.
  19. A bad joke of a performance from Giles after he came on.
  20. Pickering is the slowest full back I've ever seen in a Rovers shirt. How on earth did anyone think he was worth signing? Not only slow but also clueless in possession.
  21. Just need to win more than Everton who have a truly horrible fixture list and no form.
  22. Transferring the training ground to another Venkys company did not generate any more funds. I'm get tired of pointing that out. The Armstrong money was no more than £10m after paying off Newcastle.
  23. 6/10 for me. He's been bailed out by having three massively successful goalscoring signings. Dack's goals and assists got us out of L1 and established midtable in the Championship. He would also have brought in a large transfer fee before his first injury. Armstrong's goals kept relegation at arms length last season and brought in large fee despite having only 12 months left. Finally Brereton was an expensive gamble that eventually paid off and will no doubt depart for a large fee this summer. Virtually all the other permanent signings have been generally underwhelming apart from Kaminski and occasional contributions from Smallwood, Johnson and Downing. Loan signings have been hit and miss as you would probably expect. Player development has been fairly good with Nyambe, Travis and possibly Buckley becoming established regulars (tombola permitting). Team selection and tactics has been erratic bordering on crass at times. Overall he lacks drive and ambition which reflects in performances.
