Live or die by your signings ? i always thought a manager lived or died by actual results. And as he got the results right last season with the players he brought in and gained promotion then hes in credit with me ..at the moment.

I think we can all forget Gladwin

Again ..after countless pages of ifs and maybes and ITKs..Rovers do it on the quiet ..well done Rovers

Well lets get him back then ..i didnt realise how much the team relied on him last season ..

Thats the problem Matty but this is regarding Antonsson ..very very few rated him . Lets not suddenly make out he was ace !

Correct ..for some now suddenly to start singing his praises and making out he was an integral part of the team is beyond belief after the pasting he took on here in the second half of the season.The number of times this messageboard went into meltdown as the team was announced on here with Antonsson in it was unreal.

AGAIN until the window shuts we wont know ..infact probably not know the full truth even then. If Unleaded is privy to such info regarding TM turning transfer money away then im sure hes privy to what players if any we are targeting.This info is more important at the moment than any. Unleaded ..?

And with Derbys so called three year cycle coming to an end they re free to splurge again ..no wonder Lampard said yes ...no way he d have gone there in a cost cutting season in order to comply to FFP.

FFP is taken over three years apparently dont exceed £39M ..comply at the end and then you start again with another three year cycle? .This gives them two seasons to go gung ho but reign it in come the third to comply.Daft rules but seem to be the rules.

Derby have already come to the end of their three year FFP cycle and complied .? so i presume they ve another three years to splurge until accountable again. "The current three-year Financial Fair Play cycle is coming to an end, however, meaning Derby will have more flexibility when it comes to the summer transfer window."

That doesnt imply they are willing to chuck money at it all ..could simply mean the owners gettiing giddy and carried away with themselves off the back of a promotion! TM: " Hang on Hang on ..just coz we ve been promoted once doesnt mean its a regular gimme Mrs D ...."

IMO you can also add Chapman to these two ..300 minutes played over 14 matches for us ..two major injuries. Big risk to sign

I like it when Adam has major downers on Rovers ..his comments during match threads last season saying we re doomed ...we re going to get beat ...we ll never go up ..etc etc etc always transpired into the complete opposite ...so if Adam is on a downer i take it as a sign things will be ok ! You carry on Adam ...

Benjamin Garre ..the new Messi ..? https://www.mancity.com/news/first-team/first-team-news/2018/july/man-city-us-preseason-tour-travelling-squad Well its one of these lads !

If he plays ..cant see him playing against his future loan club ..? maybe this will be a pointer ?

A quick look at the Roverstore for an impending grandchild kit ..and it quotes " Colour Sky/White"...or baby blue yes BLUE as ive told my daughter ♥️

Well it certainly needs blowing up !

That's a a better reply ..

Woah big lad ..I was just posting a pic thats all ..as for the been there done it comments ..you're not on your own on here you know!

More a nod to the founding years 1882

Pi55y blue ..always took the mick out my dingle mates for having pi55y blue shorts ..

this official ??

If its W.B.A ..surely they wouldnt be dithering over £1M . Jay Rod and Dawson muted to be going for big money plus the £3.5M ? they got for Johnny Evans. Money not an issue i would have thought ..
