This side could really do with a Lewis O’Brien……oh. Ben is Brereton again unfortunately. In front of the chile manager too. His confidence is shot. Right hand side decent. JRC is a man transformed! Great to see. Gally and Dolan on please. -

Well, here we go. Huge game for many reasons tonight. Not overly optimistic but I hope the players can channel some frustration into a decent result. Sad watching JDT. He is still seething and once again distanced himself from the transfer shambles. Consistent in emphasising the ‘young team’ needs support, clearly he feels some sort of responsibility to them. Really can’t see him sticking around past the summer. Come on Rovers. -

Well, total balls up. My view, at last we have someone front up to 1. take responsibility 2. show some accountability 3. APOLOGISE That hasn't happened in 12 years. Couple of points: 1. JDT sounds furious. Timer on him being at Rovers now. 2. Thought the interviewer asked all the right questions - also not happened very often. Fair play 3. GB looks like a rabbit in the headlights. Not sure he will be here long. Cannot sweep this under the carpet based on one interview. Action is needed and goodness knows what the consequence of this will be for the club. Finally, that can't have been easy for GB to do all the above. Doesn't excuse it or change it, but we are all human and unlike previous crap that has happened, this was naïve rather than corrupt (I hope). -

I was too young to remember us winning the league but I do remember how bloody exciting those European matches were, despite us being about as useful in Europe as Waggott running a football club. I remember one game (against....?) when Shabani Nonda was electric and scored. Mcarthy seemed to look the part playing against European teams as well. Heady days indeed. Oh well, have we signed the lad from Rochdale yet? -

9-11: good morning Britain with Pasha 11-12: Facetime with Tony and Mark Venus 12 - 3: lunch. Probably on expenses 3-4: stand at the training ground in a raincoat or go to ewood and count how many shirts have been sold (cant be sold) 4-4.30: tell Pasha everything great and he's got a cunning plan to make loads of money -

Dear oh dear oh dear. Just feel quite sad. We are plumbing new depths here long after I thought we had reached our nadir. Penny for JDT’s thoughts….. -

I'm an optimist but this is crap. -
Looked a frustrated figure last night - firmly distanced himself from the transfer situation. Understandably if the club has failed to land the targets he wanted. In my view, he has done a solid job so far. Extremely inconsistent but we are top 6 and into the 5th round. Easy to criticize and he cant be immune to it (Burnley, Preston games etc...) but he and the team are currently exceeding my pre-season expectations. He is clearly an ambitious manager, which can only be a good thing for Rovers. Let's see where we get to this season and enjoy the ride.

strikers are coming….. I fear, will be the new ‘defenders are coming’ for the 3 seasons to come -

The nadir for me was Peterborough away. I was at the game and we were absolutely hopeless against a team who were bottom (I think). There was some real anger in the crowd that day, the only positive being it did seem like TM was done for. -

So angry with that today. In the overall context, 3rd in the league is well ahead of expectations but this is a bitter bitter pill to swallow. -

so so disappointing today. JDT got this badly wrong but the players also culpable. Players simply haven’t looked up for it and we have been garbage with the ball. -

Another feather in our academy cap. Congratulations and good luck to him. Will go down as one of TM’s worst judgement calls….. -
Mola was extremely impressive on Wednesday. Read the game very well against a tricky opponent in Antonio. Their first goal was a definite shove. His ability on the ball stood out - i can see what JDT likes about him if he wants to continue possession based football, building from the back etc. I would be interested to see how he would get on in a midfield 3. Tin hat time butI think he would be a better option than Travis there.

Just got back after that - WHAT an evening. So proud to be a Rover tonight. Not had that much fun at a match in a long long long time. Something special happening at Rovers and we should enjoy it. Brereton Diaz is a wonderful player, joy to watch. Shout out to the 2000+ fans who were there - magnificent. Just poured a whisky - it tastes so good tonight!!!!

Harvey Elliott is there. Seems to genuinely care for the club and have mates here. Nice to see. Dack situation is bizarre, none of us know what’s going on. It’s a shame it seems to be ending this way but JDT has said over and over again, team comes first. Maybe Dack sees it differently?
