I'd take Mark Hughes

Brilliant work everyone, thank you!

Arghh!!!

Rovers connections... Duff or Savage. (Big Sam would turn us down). Cheap option... Damian Johnson (to be fair has earnt a shot?). Fantasy option... Don Mackay. Even cheaper option... Me, I managed to get Rovers promoted at the 1st time of asking on FM26 (and about to get us relegated straight back!) Reality - God help us!

Absolutely staggering that he is still there... Must be the pay-off, too expensive. Grim.

Ooo - would the replay have been a midweek, or a Saturday game?

You log on everyday just for another small bit of hope to die when absolutely no news on incomings is apparent... Oh for a modern trio of Mimms, Dobson and Livingstone to get us over the line...

Okay Rovers history experts, can you help solve a family mystery for us? My mother has sadly recently passed away. In her youth she was a proper Rovers fan - born in 1942. Whilst she was at school, she organised for herself and friends to climb out of the classroom window to skip school and watch an important Rovers match? Other schools had been given the time off for it - but as mum went to a girls schools, they decided it wasn't for them. As the ringleader she was expelled when she returned the day afterwards! Any ideas?

I can't see him moving in this window... Palace have already had to sell lots of players, so they aren't desperate, so even if Wharton was keen to explore options (I can't see him demanding move, not his style) they would probably price him out of a move (for now) - plus with the terrible run Palace are on, he has hardly been in the 'shop window'.

Shearer was (surprisingly) physical - defenders seemed to bounce off him. Not necessarily hard, but off the scale looking for trouble - El Hadji Diouf or Paul Dickov. Andy Todd always looked like he would explode at any random moment. Oh, and Souness in training - didn't he take out a few of our players?

Oh to have a young(er) Don Mackay to come in and somehow keep us up. Suspect VI is safe as will cost money to remove him, but Damian Johnson would at least be a free replacement. The league table is looking beyond grim, something - anything needs to be done.

Positives... Lots of effort. Negatives... We are woeful.

Ahh yes... stand corrected. Okay, not worrying about resting players who might be moved on then.

Mid Jan - rooted to the foot of the PL table - team bereft of confidence, going to need to pull something out of the bag form wise soon as I am giving the famous Derby a run for their money!

Waiting for the end of season sale...
