  1. I Look at all of this midfield talk and wish we had jumped in with a solid offer for john McGinn when we had the chance. Now there would have been a quality signing. Increased wages or not.
  2. I’m guessing chapman and Armstrong might benefit from his input??? Bring out more in them...or has he no experience to offer
  3. Most of time recently as an attacking midfielder so all this winger talk is nonsense. You don’t play 35 odd times for England without something about you especially now at championship level. Or signed in for Liverpool for 20 odd million so comparisons with Conway also nonsense class above
  4. Promotion squad material. Gordon Cowans, Kevin Moran, David Speedie... experience counts. End of. Approve yes. Experience in defence, midfield and striker areas/role models/hardened professionals puts us in contention. IMO
  5. Why Switzerland ?? who else was attending that lives in Switzerland. Is it just me whose a touch suspicious on their choice of location. Re: talent spotting abroad. Please tony don’t mention to venky’s you have spotted the next generation of Portuguese superstars and think we can play like Barcelona ?
  6. Done with incomings.... eek hope they mean phone off hook/ office closed.
  7. That would suggest a signing ousts Tony’s favoured for one game then they win their spot back ?
  8. Do we realistically expect any more additions that would go straight into the side/ oust Tony’s favoured group. Pessimistic but happy to be proved wrong.
  9. I’d imagine we would be in a mess if Graham is injured. Plus he fades in second half of match. So guess as impact sub/ cover??
  10. Tony is going to go mental at all these potential leaks. 70% complete and in the public domain before across the line....etc. He wasn’t too impressed last time he thought someone was leaking information.
  11. Whose most on form at moment? Nuttall or Brereton? O.K he's cost us a few pence but why not send Brereton out and keep Nuttall in the running? No brainer the lad needs game time and hopefully the confidence that will come with that for next season.
  12. Not really a Chelsea youth player (quick google research) was part of a satellite setup at the Surrey Development Centre Under/14s, although appears Louie A was the teams captain for a period.
  13. How much money/ overhaul to be in contention. We couldn’t beat Newcastle who are fighting relegation and who put out a youth side despite our players giving all/ gritty performance. so is this at the moment a realistic expectation??
  14. Few points: 1) Newcastle loss against largely youth team proved major investment and HUGE squad overhaul of to compete in premiership. 2) Realistically are we going to make premiership via playoffs this yr. though possibility- if honest unlikely. 3) Are we safe from relegation. On current performance/form/squad. More than likely. 4) will loans to buy in January be what’s needed to push for promotion next yr? Is this the right time to buy? I expect minimum investment/loans and consolidation on a good solid return to championship this transfer. In all reality if asked at start of season if I would be happy with our current position, squad and performance I would unreservedly have said yes.
  15. Rovers are interested in signing Sheffield United defender Ben Heneghan.A 25-year-old centre-back is currently on loan at Blackpool but has made only two appearances for them. (Apologies for txt size)
  16. I follow never seems to work on my mac computer. Really recommend an Android to TV converter to enjoy in large (versions also available for iphones). Small price HUGE difference.
  17. Yes Venkys have taken from our club (Pride/financially etc) Indisputable as is the anger of fans. However, if we are to take from Venky's e.g more player investment/supporting manager then it is important to play a game....and not make them feel unwelcome. They took money from us so now to take money back from them...etc. If we are over critical we risk alienating investment etc. (keep anger internal)...so yes welcome them and then hope they invest.
  18. A few observations from watching the game. 1) Rodwell has an incredible passing range/looked to be growing in confidence, but needed reassurance from Raya on ocashions on where to position for corners/free kicks. Still growing in confidence. was really controlling some passes and really opening up play. 2) Bereton looked like he will grow as a player. Really fought at the end when we went 3 goals down. Wish he had shown that determination earlier on. Good at holding up ball but trying to do too much resulting in loosing ball. Mind you Dack could have played a great ball through to him to run onto but chose to shoot from distance instead. 3) Reed great at winning ball and fought but not a natural at crossing ball or cutting into box (under statement). Meant at times lacked width going forward. Graham lacked service. 4) Dack completely isolated and playing deep in first half few runs but not really getting into or around box. When Bereton came on Dack moved more forward and left midfield exposed. Disappointed in how isolated he was and how little at times he was able to contribute. 5) Graham playing a thankless role and completely isolated up front in first half. 5)Bell lacked confidence going forward Team looked to be lacking crosses/balls from wing and pushing fast from midfield. no created much really.
  19. Did anyone record soccer Am and got a link to video?
  20. Are tickets still available for this as nothing on rovers website?
  21. Goal keeper loan needed. Imagine Raya injured eeeek not a great thought.
