Good news if anything it shows the Venkys now having faith and being a bit more trusting to have Rovers running like a normal business

Yorkshire Post journo saying we have a possible interest in Roofe but Leeds want to keep him. Biesla looking to get rid of 15 players. 

Wasn't he linked to Reading at 7 million last week?

When are they planning to increase the budget for stadium maintenance? The roof on the Blackburn End is leaking, close to where I sit. Looking it around the stadium, it needs a good clean too. I also would imagine there’s other issues.

This one hundred percent the ground looks filthy and I noticed on Twitter fifa with Gabriel Jesus used Ewood for a stage and backdrop. Surely a clean stadium makes us more appealing to future revenue streams of a similar ilk?

Adelakun and Chapman on the wings would do me just fine. 

Chapman sure but I’d dodge Adelakun, form with attitude problems 

Ex Blackburn striker Nikola Kalinic sent home for refusing to play.

Sunderland in league one have got 18,000 + signed up. Rovers last year scrapped 8,000. Given the prices where else can you get entertained for the value per match? 

Only thing I've noticed is Sunderland with every adult ST sold, in areas struggling to sell they've sold a child with adult ST at 50! Quid.

Oh my.....at what point did 17th June become late in the transfer Market? Any transfers done before July are early, surely?

 

Isn't the window shut at the beginning of the season this year?

Taking rubbish ? every Rovers fan I, meet says hes crap, he's not scored since the beginning of last December in League one chaddy for your information.  He's lazy, poor in the air, lazy at tracking back, can't beat a player, doesn't have any tricks in his locker.   ....... Samuel is a fraud of a footballer get him out.

Your footballing IQ is sadly lacking, its no wonder we've fallen way behind Burnley.

 

Samuel lost his place after a few ropey games. Graham hit form and became undroppable. Samuel is technically good with his touch, and brilliant in the air jump wise like Gestede but if you remember Rudy when he first came and Duffy they couldn’t head on target so it’s an area he needs to work on.

A decent turn of pace and he’s clearly a fit boy with his training over the summer so you can’t knock him. He seems to be stroppy on the pitch and this affects his compusure however he reminds me of a Jason Roberts. He’s still young but needs to step up.

My son in law will be pleased if Rodriguez goes back to Burnley

Good player but worry about his knee.

Mowbray has had a bit of a shocker here for me, thought this when he first came out with it; signings rarely happen as quickly as expected, all he does here is get out hopes up. 

Or more than likely he’s downgrading his shortlist to option C having been told he’s buttons to spend. Nicko suggested they’ve seen PNE ran on a budget of 12m a year (wage bill), we were 8.5 pre promotion and those promotion wage rises will now kick in. Can’t imagine we’ve wiggle room to bring 5 first team players in who will improve the starting 11. 

Hope I’m wrong.

Lad on Nickos twitter post for Konsa (Charlton Fan) suggests we are looking at Patrick Bauer.

I must say that I am completely underwhelmed by the resigning of Conway other than as an out and out coach.

More likely an indication of budget levels and inability to spend on fresh players.

Any news on Pilkington?

I think young players is the right policy at this time given the transfer budget and wage budget Mowbray got from the owners(based of all the comments made from the owners trip by Mowbray and Waggott). 

I think some suggestions of players from PL are far from realistic and pointless like Ki from Swansea. Wages would be massive problem. As alot of PL players who are out of contract would be. 

Now if an outstanding player above 25 years old can available and fitted within our transfer and wage budget then fair enough but I feel this very unlikely to happen

Jordan Williams freed today from Liverpool. Get him on trial at least, 1 yr at Rochdale already on table kid could be a squad filler and progress at Ewood

And you and some others misinterpret that my opinion is based around the manager comments who has specific the age group of signings he looking to sign from. So I based my suggestion of signings around that. 

I didnt see the point of suggesting players out of that age bracket. 

I know you are you said you are but what am I ?

Is English your first language ? I'm struggling a bit to make sense of  the second sentence.

Yes but after 18 hrs I think I was worse than a night out in Glasgow. 12 hr shift and 6hrs of driving.

What I insinuated was if we had an agreement then we should have honoured it. We’ve tried to skimp or lower his wage in the meantime and a rival has come in for him on a potential lesser wage than we’ve now offered as they’re salary capped at 5k pwk. But offered 2 years.

For the record I’d still have had Rhodes.

Great to see 

I agree. Team spirit means more than 11 individuals. Sorry to say but that’s Burnley esque when they went up under Dyche

Jordan Graham from Wolves on the move, he’d be a perfect Craig Conway replacement

Remember seeing him  on MOTD a few times and boy did he look like a player. I know he suffered a lot of injuries but did not know the depression side - perhaps linked with those injuries? Good to see that he is doing well now outside of football. 

Was in the priory, banned from driving after being found drunk for 3 years and A tonne of hamstring injuries, a mystery stomach injury along with injuries which doctors didn’t see but Johnno allegedly did. Think Hughes has him down as a hypochondriac.

Is it worth looking at Jon Flanagan as he’s been released. Lost his way a bit but he was a very good player previously. Could be one to flourish under Tony.
