  1. Staggering when you consider Norwich picked up someone like Pukki for free.
  2. Well he certainly isn't a winger and on previous evidence he isn't much use playing up front either. Try him in goal?
  3. Armstrong's problem is his lack of end product - he often goes on blazing runs, stops and loses the ball. Needs to learn to pass/cross/shoot.
  4. Brereton making up for his inability to score goals with a serious talent for football clichés on commentary.
  5. So frustrating. Luton are extremely average yet rovers show no urgency or intensity for 90 minutes. 3 points thrown away. Unfortunately we’ve spent 12m on two duds, we are sorely lacking quality up front. Holtby has to start from now on.
  6. Agreed - fairly confident no channel here in Costa Rica is showing Rovers v Luton!
  7. Great result. Game management lightyears ahead of last season, despite it still being nervy. Fair play to TM on the defense this season, chalk and cheese. Travis looked shattered and I think we are still short a goal scorer up top. Gallagher worked extremely hard but doesn’t look a goal threat to me. holtby looked technically v good, some nice passes. Expect he will be starting soon.
  8. Mowbray seems genuinely delighted and surprised we have signed him.....which means either a) Venkys have gone big on his wages/sign on fee b) he is taking a hit to join a club where he's wanted and sees some opportunity In either scenario it's great to sign a player with some pedigree that has generated excitement amongst the fanbase. Fans of other clubs are also overwhelmingly jealous! Brilliant!
  9. Walton is worse than Raya. Absolutely shocking - zero presence.
  10. Graham > Gallagher. He has been very very poor today.
  11. played well in the first half. Tosin and Williams look far more mobile than previous pairings. Dack also playing well. Bell a liability and rothwell and Gallagher anonymous.
  12. started for Norwich as captain, so surely he was never even an option for us.....
  13. Extremely poor window and unfortunately most of that sentiment can be blamed on Mowbray. As the end of last year he waxed lyrical about the European scouting network, the need to invest, a desire to get into the top 6 and the now infamous 'defenders are coming'. We have ended up with: - A striker at $5m we arguably don't need currently - A 35 year old Stewart downing who will be played as a utility man - Johnson, this is an improvement - A left back who couldn't get into a Cardiff side - A keeper who so far looks to be no upgrade on our academy graduate, except a few inches higher If we didn't have the means to do anything more TM should not have raised expectations. I am fed up with his prophetic interviews where he talks about how difficult it is to sign players with all the relevant excuses...….that's your bloody job! The buck now firmly stops with him. Results will be the barometer and I am not hopeful we will be sitting pretty in December. I hope I'm wrong.
  14. what Tony says and Tony does are two very different things. Expecting a Palmer scenario and him to disappear back to City in January without a trace.
  15. It's the hope that kills you, but based on the last 20 minutes we could be looking at: Gallagher Murphy Dack Armstrong Travis Johnson Bell Hanley Lenihan Tosin Walton
  16. It’s absolutely staggering TM has done nothing about the defense. EVERY single person sees this is an issue. The keeper doesn’t look particularly commanding either. Dear oh dear.
  17. Bennett and Bell look off the pace. Bell just cocked up a nice move forward. playing some nice passing football though. Majority of the possession.
  18. Looking at that team reinforces even more how bad a window we’ve had, especially the back 5. Will downing do a better job than Reed? And the top scorer last season replaced by a lad who scored less goals in the same season. Grim.
  19. MODS OUT!! For what it’s worth my brain tells me we will sign Carson; championship now, cheap, old, crap teeth. I’d love us to sign Hart and him play an integral role in getting us promoted before ousting Pickford as england number one, then running the length of Wembley with Arte Et Labore tattooed across his chest. Different side to his crap Maori tattoo obviously.
  20. Yes, I’m sure they put aside running a multi billion dollar conglomerate for a few minutes to sit and design the Rovers away kit. I’d put money on them not having even seen it.
  21. I like it and judging from the reaction on Twitter, many other people do too. It's a break from tradition, nothing wrong with that.
  22. Talk of Ollson, Hanley and Dann making a return...….we could get Bradley Orr back on a free at RB whilst we are at it. (I would definitely take the former 3, proven performers at this level).
  23. Hart would be an excellent signing for a midtable championship team, which we are.
