You could look at it at a different way, Would Dolan be in the first team squad regularly at Norwich? If he was in and around the first team mainly as sub for the last 2 years and only made 15 appearances, mainly as sub appearances. Then how much would he be worth? I would say £1million. Still doesn't make any difference that he should of been allowed to run his contract down with Rovers receiving zero. Is Brittain a villian for pushing for a move with a year left on his contract which he knows he won't renew with the peanuts that Rovers will offer him, or does he earn £3 million for the club that has looked after him and improved him for the last few years. Look at Dolan, Brereton, Lenihan, Nyambe to name a few in the last few years that have completely sold us as fans and the club who had nurtured them. The real villains are Venkys, pasha and gestede for the piss poor management and driving these players out with our league 1 budget

Something was definitely wrong last night, the sheer amount of miss placed passes there was stupid. The swing and a miss from Cantwell, the numerous times that simple balls were cut out.

Which team is going for the playoffs again?

But you're forgetting about the speed of the ball played into tronstad, pears absolutely fired it at him with a player on his shoulder

I agree but pears will still be contracted to the club and as a manager / coach he wouldn't show his instant distrust to one of his players. So what would happen if he signs today, and he drops pears to play de lange on Friday. De lange then drops a clanger and we lose the game due to it. His confidence is shot and that would continue until he regains it. Then you also have Pears who knows you think he's not good enough to be number 1 and he won't ever be a number 1 at this club. Or on the other hand, De lange comes in, builds relationship with the players, gets a footing within the club and becomes number 1. I'm also not saying that would 100% would happen but the chance is there and I'm 90% of most coaches wouldn't drop players straight into the firing line, especially goalkeepers Also, I do believe we need to get Pears out ASAP with a better replacement but I feel that a coach wouldn't do this with a player coming into the club a few days before a game with next to no training.

Regardless whether he signs before Fridays cut off JE wouldn't throw a goalkeeper in without bedding into the squad, also it would show zero faith to his soon to be number 2 in Pears. I suspect we will continue to see Pears as number 1 for a number of games until JDL has settled and shown his worth in training

If he was that good we wouldn't be getting linked with him

Poveda could be a good shout and his loan to Wednesday showed what he can do. Can he stay fit though? Thomas I'd stay clear of, in my opinion he wasn't great here and maybe had maybe 3 half decent games Khadra was only sold to Reims last July, don't think he'd jump at the chance coming to us. Our scouting department need to look for fresh faces to bring some spark to Ewood.

A quick Google search suggests spurs are looking at him this summer for around 20 million euros..... need to lower our expectations unfortunately

John Useless will probably try and put a positive spin on this, and comment that we're all in it together 🤦‍♂️🫡

Completely messed our weekend plans up for this. No child care cover now for this one. Looks like a night on the piss in Leeds instead. Any idea how many tickets Leeds are releasing?

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?

Great win today and just what we needed! You could see today that they were told to play balls up to gallagher, every time we did szmodics and dolan peeled round the back of him waiting for a flick, which paid off for Dolans second. How many times in the past have we been frustrated with Gallaghers lack of presence despite his size, but today we played to his strengths and he actually got more than 2 inches off the ground 🤣

Has anyone mentioned about what sigurdsson actually brings to the team? He doesn't seem to bring anything that we actually need, like he did when he first came into the team

Exactly, I feel like we need Gallagher to leave and bring a proven CF in, we then need another winger to compliment what we already have. If we get them then I think we'd be serious contenders
