  1. Rovers may or may not get in playoffs, or push for promotion. But these moves show a keen interest in building the roster to be big time. We’ve got everything on our wish list, and more, if Harv Elliott joins. I’m very excited about the Rest of the season.
  2. If these transfers come about, I’d say, “playoffs, here we come!” (Barring another round of injuries)
  3. This seems to be a very objective assessment. All the positives, although with “glass ankles.” He’s not Travis (sadly, out for the year), a different game as a CDM, but I believe he would make a very welcome addition to our club, and complement our existing players very well. We seem to get 25-35 games out of our players. I hope that’s not the case here, we need to count on these new players to be strong performers, not just minimal contributors, if we hope to make a serious playoff push.
  4. I am not against any of these moves. I just think it strange Mowbray would be so hot for a 3rd gk, when we’ve always got to play two CB’s, we are already short at LB, and truthfully, we’re thin at all four back positions. Even though I don’t see Bennett in a key role going forward, it’s obvious now he’s a long-term absentee. I guess TM has already figured out we won’t have Kaminski very long. That is sad news. but the thought of having kaminski, Stergiakis & Pears all at one time, when all we had last year was Walton, that seems really deficient thinking to me.
  5. Our midfield will need to win this game. We might even concede early, with injuries/inexperience at the back, but Holtby levels it, and Dolan figures in the game-winner. I’m feeling 2-1.
  6. Sans injury, I do not see Rovers making any moves now. It would be great to get in a quality LB, or depth, but with the decent start by Bell, 3 clean sheets, etc, I do not see it happening.
  7. At least Junior won’t beat us. come on, Rovers...
  8. I’m afraid they will score on a set-piece
  9. Winning possession today, As usual, does not necessarily mean Rovers are getting good shots
  10. It’s refreshing to see so much optimism about the Rovers on this thread, I don’t believe I have seen things this positive since I started looking at this board four or five years ago. However beaten up the squad have been, they’ve answered all questions the last two games. The midfield has been outstanding, and Bell & Williams haven’t looked this good since League 1 days. Kaminski has been just what the doctor ordered. I do not want to quash the enthusiasm, and normally I’m crapping sunshine. I guess I’m the voice of cautious optimism here, looking for Rovers to concede early, and fight like crazy to get a point. If so, my hopes for the rest of the season rise with each game, and each returnee as he becomes fit. Yes, I will gladly take my plate of crow afterwards, chicken-fried and with cream gravy, please (what else for a Southerner?!)
  11. Wonderful the play we’re seeing from these 11. With guys returning to fitness soon, Tony has a nice problem on his hands.
  12. What encore do Rovers have to top 9 goals in two games
  13. BB, 3 shots on target, 0 goals. Keep firing, lad!
  14. Youth & experience scoring, I’m loving this!
  15. Return haiku- if Rovers score 2, that might have to do.
  16. As strange as it seems, Rovers have beaten Liverpool since Everton has ?
  17. Excellent win, with what many thought was Arma & a bunch of scrubs. A great weekend, with U23’s dispatching ManC.
  18. We won’t see another score fest like this. Until Dacky returns ?
  19. Lots of hustle & scrappy play. Very appealing football by Rovers
  20. Dolan, making great things happen!
  21. So I wake up in an irritable mood here in Texas; it gets worse when I see all the PL action I used to get free on NBC or NBCSN is now on peacock TV. Ugh I need Rovers to play decently today to life my spirits.
