How do you know what tactics he would put into place, Chaddy? All because he played one way at Wycombe (who he dragged from the bottom of League Two with no money) doesn't mean he'd play the same way here. Christ, you ask some daft questions.

🙋‍♂️

Not commented on here in ages since our purple patch. I was calling for Mowbray's head a few years ago and here I am again... MOWBRAY OUT

Wolves fans are disappointed Giles has left on loan. They believe he should be challenging for a first team spot. Combined with his impressive assist record, could bode well for us (I hope!)

I don't get it either. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

For me, no matter what money comes in for BBD in Jan, it shouldn't be a "big decision" to be made, or even a decision at all. Should be a flat out no chance. We don't need to sell him in Jan, and we'll get the same, if not very similar, money for him come summer, possibly even more if he carries on his current form. I'd rather lose £5/10mill off the fee by selling him in summer and give ourselves a real shot at promotion by holding onto him, than sell him in Jan and HOPE we actually reinvest and manage to sign the right replacements. I'd like to think Breo is enjoying his football so much and, being a seemingly level-headed chap, isn't naive enough to push for a move in Jan to somewhere where he could be second fiddle, albeit for a shit-tonne more money. I'm still praying he'll sign a new deal and then move on for big bucks should we not get ourselves and him to where we want to be (ie Prem). I do have a VERY good source that told me he loves it here, and they thought he was gonna sign a new deal when I last spoke to them on the matter a few months ago. Whether that's changed or not, I do not know.

Chaddy, with respect, re the last paragraph and the previous replies to other posters, you ask people where they get their information from and what they base their opinions on CONSTANTLY, especially when it contradicts your own thoughts. Whenever someone comments on a player, you question them as to why the think/say what they do. You can't get uppity with someone for holding you to the same standards really, can you?

There are other websites where you can watch it...

Delighted with the result. Gutted I didn’t go but my brother was full of superlatives for the players and performance. Class to hear Bucko is doing the business yet again and Wharton continuing to show what a player he is. Proper old school defender isn’t he. Let’s keep this up Rovers! RTID

I often cite myself as such but all my friends still continue to think I’m bonkers

I’ve not been on this forum for a while, but those folk who were saying Buckley is shite, what are they saying now? I know almost everyone has probably come round on BBD but Bucko came in for some right stick from some quarters not long ago, despite plenty of fans saying he’s a player. Surely humble pie has been eaten? Been a standout performer this season and really looks the part in every game. I’m still doubtful of Mowbray’s abilities but I’ve got a bib, napkin, knife and fork ready for if we somehow make the playoffs.

Don’t kick yourself for it. I did the same, but I needed that chunk more then than I needed the full amount come when he gets it. There was no guarantee he wouldn’t get injured or sold before he hit it so can’t be blamed for cashing. I’m just mad I didn’t put another fiver on as I said I was gonna (and I’d have let that one ride!). It’s just crazy how he can’t stop scoring. Every chance that falls to him, you feel he’s gonna put it away and I’m sure he feels the same. It’s remarkable how consistent he is without having a wealth of chances, and how without Armstrong’s presence he’s been able to flourish, yet without the detriment to the team that came with Armstrong’s greediness. I have been a staunch defender/supporter of Brereton from the off and said there was a player there when others didn’t and I’m just glad he’s showing what he can do, to our benefit. Regardless of his goals, his work rate has always been exemplary and he should be lauded for this more than anything. Seems a really lovely, likeable lad too which always helps. If he signs a new deal and continues to do the business for us, he could really cement himself in folklore, if he hasn’t already. I bloody love the guy.

3 on 2 and could have played Breo in for a near open net. Far too greedy. Great effort and save mind.

Oh I know he isn’t, but I think that was more to the shape change with him as a wingback and Magloire in CB. No one knew where they were supposed to be. I meant to say I’d rather him there in a flat back four than Magloire, and I’d definitely rather him there than a change to three CBs to accommodate Magloire. If that makes sense? Give me Edun at RB any day over the other options. I just don’t trust Mowbray to do that. I was there on Tuesday and didn’t agree with the changes.

Ps please no Magloire. Don’t wanna be too harsh on the lad but he’s looked awful in most games.

This makes sense to me. And I’m mirroring other people’s suggestions on Edun right back. I’d sooner see Buckley RB in a back four with Edun in midfield than a back five. It’s proven time and time again it doesn’t work, so let’s stick to the shape that we know and the one that’s been most effective. Limit the tinkering and pointless late changes. We threw away a point the other night, so it’s paramount we get three on Saturday. COYB

Madness ain’t it. Some people are taking the piss but those trying to exploit their own fans, it’s shameful

If anyone has a couple tickets going spare (or even just one) would be great if you could PM me. Rather look to get off someone trustworthy on here than someone on FB.

Anyone got any ideas on where’s best for away parking/pubs?

Not letting me get tickets on the website... Not sold out, surely??

Brilliant to hear, Roverite. I look forward to hearing more about the positive steps and actions of BRFC and it's staff, especially after such a rocky period. Long may it continue 💙

Reading about the work done with the Darwen refugees and the efforts to bring kids along from schools, particularly looking to engage kids from diverse backgrounds where football might not have been a big part of the culture, really made me happy. I'm as guilty as anyone of being a pessimistic/cynical bugger but it does fill you with hope seeing that you have some people putting in a great deal of effort in making positive moves for the community and BRFC. Check out the video below, it makes great viewing seeing the kids celebrating, as well as the young lad pointing out Khadra praying for a Brereton-Diaz hat-trick! Hats off to you, Yasir. COYB

So, two?

Many managers in the lower leagues who took a team from the bottom of League 2 to the Championship in a handful of years with one of the lowest budgets in the league each season? Go ahead...

It's gonna happen again, isn't it? Same posters that have written off certain players as shite and continue to do so, despite improved performances and stats from said players, have now already written off a player before he steps through the door... That Chilean international up top? Still shite. Everyone else is wrong. Young Bucko who played great at the weekend and looks to be maturing physically and mentally? Shite second half tho. Still an awful player. Obafemi scores 3 in his first 3 games, but doesn't bag in his fourth? Told you he was shit. Did I mention he's got attitude and injury problems? Should have not signed him and stuck relying on those strikers I've been telling everyone are shit for the last two years... Durp durp.
