  1. 20 days ago, Danny Graham scores and we are (briefly) third. Now we are 11 points behind third. Just saying.
  2. But we have no money Paul. Zilch. Business decisions outweigh football decisions. Cheston will suggest who Mowbray needs to sell.
  3. Just seen Mulgrew is back. Wonder if Tony will opt for his goals.
  4. They will probably try to flog Neville mansion again. They tried in 2016 for £3mill but then took it off the market. https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/business/property/fancy-living-gary-nevilles-former-11141488 We just had a new heating system fitted 6 months ago and pay for it's daily upkeep.
  5. This was blindingly obvious from the accounts. The ACV on Ewood and the covenant on Brockhall reduce their options (thankfully). Only ever 2 ways out of this mess in the end.... PL / Sky money or Administration.
  6. Arma misses another sitter. We are presently the best side. hope we don't regret these misses second half.
  7. and thats what you get for missing chances. bastards
  8. We were all excited at being joint 3rd when Graham scored early the other week. Long way to go but a good start. Arma thinking he's Ronaldo with the step over, terrible defending though. Looks like Evans coming off on stretcher. Johnson on.
  9. Latest update on today's game. Waggott wants more walk ons. Please come after 12 because an extra £3 will be donated to the transfer kitty. "Tickets will now also be available on the day and a database purchase history is no longer required." Also, MGP will be in the Roverstore from 12:30. No ticket required.
  10. Tony's latest comments have me in almost disbelief. He won't sign a striker unless they have a special type of Mowbray human character. He won't sign wingers because their characters are generally "flighty mavericks". That's before we even get to the price and wages ruling us out. I don't think this personal vanity project is ever going to work. Just sign some good players and win football matches.
  11. not quite all... I didn't... because Tony already told us we aren't signing anyone cuz we got no FFP headroom.... and for ONCE I believe him. We can't even afford Ollie Rathbone. We couldn't even afford Myles Anderson.
  12. Mowbray says focus could be on the lower leagues for new recruits, but that figures being quoted in the early weeks of the window have priced Rovers out. Confirmation we can't even afford to shop in poundland. Close the thread.
  13. Factually incorrect. We ARE skint. Last time I looked, being £150 mill in debt qualified as SKINT. Venkys are not skint if that was what you meant. If they are happy to fight FFP investigation in 12 months they can spend as much as they like and make sure we get to the PL this year. £60 million gratefully received.... ? No... thought not... throwing good money after bad. Tony won't get sacked (because the owners think hes good, as they did with Owen and Steve) and he won't walk either because he has the safest pension slush fund in English football.
  14. He wasn't a centre forward either but bearing in mind every player at the club bar Downing is regressing (and we now have a thread on most of them) this needs explaining. Today TM is saying Gallagher needs to learn how to head it, when to run, when to jump, etc. Fundamental basics ? I watched Liverpool schoolboys teach Everton yesterday. 16 - 19yos dominating a PL side. I thought... bring any one of them lads here on loan and it will end their career.
  15. Pretty confident you don't get to Sam's age at a PL club if you don't even understand the basics of playing centre forward. I imagine the problem is taking daily centre forward lessons off a centre half. Alright buying these players to develop but who is doing the developing ?
  16. Almost 19,000 against Wigan. This game should be 22,000. It will be around 15,000 mainly due to away fans thinking it's their cup final. Wrong Price and Poor Quality keeping thousands away.
  17. Hasn't this thread been closed yet? No money (to spend). No hope. Developing young players.... not here. That would involve good coaches. We have cheap coaches. That is why none of our young players progress and why our senior players regress. The whole coaching staff need replacing. Too many analysts not enough experienced pros on the grass working with players. Venus, Lowe, Benson all need replacing with more capable coaches. Even the cones need replacing.
  18. £28... I don't think so. Like Ben Brereton.... What a waste of money !
  19. This is just bollocks. The lad is either a kid and should be playing with them, or he's a first team striker and will be expected to score 20 goals plus or he can go elsewhere. 20,000 used to boo Keith Andrews every week because he was complete shite and below the expectations of a Blackburn Rovers player. I don't doubt it included many of these so called fans who have become aware of mental health as the latest fashion. If he can't hack it then it says it all. Knuckle down and prove everyone wrong... or everyone is right. Simple fact is a striker has an instinct and he doesn't. You can't coach instinct. Either have it or don't. What if Mowbray cries ? Give him a sympathy job 4 life ? What if Balaji cries ? What if Cheston cries ? What if Don Trump cries ? Is one person worth more than another ? Embarrassing discussion. Even more embarrassing, fans trying to call out other fans for allegedly booing BB and making him cry. Incidentally, as Duncan alludes to, it is 99% likely to be total bullshit.
  20. What should happen now is that we should go on to win 3-1. The sub was sent off. Was on the pitch for 1 minute 38 seconds
