Rochdale won’t be far behind if they don’t get an investor in the next six weeks.

Long established league clubs which fall through the trap door are at heightened risk

Torquay United have gone into administration 

Some of my old school mates played against Paul when he turned out for Wellington Road. Sad news indeed.

 Along with David Raya the best keeper to come through our youth scheme in living memory.

Shay Given?

Started for Ipswich on Tuesday. If the 200 game bonus is true I don't expect to see him in a rovers shirt again.

Venkys scum have always operated like this. Never refuse to sign a cheque!!!!

Probably because Gilseanan is another number ten, and we already have a few of those.

He did play on the left in the league cup games earlier in the season.

Gilsenan now got a second on 75 mins

Gilsenan just put under 21 side in the lead v Derby

He's not fit for purpose. 

Please do the honourable thing and retire Mr Waggot. 

At 69 if he gets enough ear ache off the support that may bring his retirement date forward.

Some might say that's an exaggeration. Having contemplated for a while I think you're right.

The worst Rovers squad in living memory, take a bow Venkys you utter shitebags.

Depends how old you are. The side which went down under John Pickering was pretty weak.

Bring the group together and send them out to war. 

 

If he can manage that with this lot I will be impressed. Arbitro describes some as jelly fish! I think he's watched enough football to know a jellyfish when he sees one.

I got absolutely lambasted by a certain poster when I suggested siggy is poor. He offers no attacking threat currently, as soon as he receives the ball he looks to offload. 

When he first arrived he said he's a player that likes to run at defenders and be on the offensive, where has that player gone now? Is that down to coaching? Out of form? Lacking confidence? 

That player has now got a permanent contract and would appear to be now coasting.

Agreed, but you can choose to employ competent people in executive and senior positions at the club, and let them crack on.

The Rao’s choose idiots and overrule at every turn.

Part of the job description if you are not an idiot you won't put up with being overruled at every turn

I would switch Chrisene for O’Riordan, with McFadz on the left of a three

McFadz needs to be the centre one of the three would be exposed on either side of the centre having no pace. In the middle he can organise the other two.

Will Waggott be there?

He originally said Feb so they must have some from somewhere dropping in the acc so unless it's another short term borrowing secured against god knows what it'll be the 1st Wharton instalment.

I think it's obvious why Waggot doesn't say much it's because if he did he'd trip himself up forgetting what he'd said previously.

Short term borrowing secured against the future stage payments for Adam?

Saving pennies wasting pounds eg flying the Orlando city lad over

Eustace has a career win percentage in the football league of around 33 per cent. The same as jdt this season. If he can maintain that one win in three should see us survive with five wins.

Hope you've got a break clause in that two and half year deal John.

I do think they have a major problem if they do that, especially if that means that no further funds will be forthcoming.

Each year, a statement is made on the accounts, whereby, it is acknowledged that the business is trading as insolvent, but the accounts are signed off, due to the guarantees of the funding being forthcoming from the owners.

Once this is no longer the case, the business is then insolvent.

There is nothing to stop the Raos going back to the court later in the year once they have burned through the majority of Adam's money.

Do not be surprised if the Raos withdraw their application for the court hearing in march .There is now the Adam money on dripfeed in stages presumably. They will use this to fund the club for the time being why would they go to the court to send funds over when they have to pay the DE a similar amount to whatever the court approves.

Need to grow a backbone.

Don't see the 37 year old bruiser of a centre half fitting the play it out from the back style so if he starts soon maybe a change in style is underway.

BRENT OR WAGGOTT. Are these quotes from David Brent or under-fire Rovers CEO Steve Waggott?

One from the archive... https://brfcs.com/magazine/articles/brent-or-waggott/492

It's the same bloke just 40 years older
