The Ruts - Babylon's Burning

You mean exactly like the last guy did around this time last year?

Doesn't know the meaning of the word.

No. That's 100% on the owners.

The Ramones - I Wanna Be Sedated

I love how there's more money dedicated to upgrading sports facilities than what there is for the health service.

I am also checking out of this thread. I'm not giving him the benefit of doubt here. As I said before, pathetic.

Similar here. Born in Queen's Park but left the country ten years ago. Questions about where you were born and grew up would be more telling. They did a great pint of Thwaites Bitter in the Aqueduct. I remember me and my mate in the pisser and some old guy we were talking to ripped his shirt open to show us his Rovers tattoo.

This is getting beyond embarrassing now. Grown adults refusing to grasp the most basic life concepts. Pathetic.

I wont. Anything less than promotion is a total failure. It's entirely up to the owners to make that happen.

Is that because there hasn't been a match played yet giving us a glimps of just how shit we are?

At the end of the day Gav, I'll believe we've signed a player when they run out on the pitch in a match. Not before.

The worst owners of any football club.

I know a couple of people who have sold businesses. We're talking around 1-2 million max for the lot, nothing on the scale of a multi million pound football club. It's a really thorough process, every bit of financial information is needed. Every invoice or docket that you signed without thinking about, it all needs to be handed over and presented. They've sold the house now so why not the club? Skeletons in the closet perhaps? I'm not saying it's a certainty but it's likely one of the reasons.

Yeah forgot about the systematic degradation of the club we love. Forget about how a solid mid table Premier League club has been deliberately run down over the course of fourteen years to the point where even staying in the championship is seen as some sort of achievement. Forget about how we've been made a total laughing stock by repeatedly sabotaging deadline day transfer deals and leaving players in total limbo. Forget about how we sold a once in a generation talent, a home grown player and boyhood fan of the club to the first bidder at less than half his actual value. Forget about how we've brought in over 25 million quid in transfer fees and not signed a single player when we actually need a complete squad rebuild. Forget about how we've not only not beaten our local rivals for the last fourteen years, we've not even scored a goal against them in six years. Forget about all that doom and gloom bullshit. You're all just being negative Nancys. GET BEHIND THE LADZ FFS!!!

I think the manager or head coach should be from the nation they are representing. I don't see why the qualification should be any different from the way players are selected. You pick the best available. If Howe or Potter is the best England have then so be it. Maybe there should be some impetus to develop better coaches.

Possibly the last thread for a while about this league. We're all but guaranteed to be relegated this season and there is no telling how long it will be before we return even to the second tier.

Like?

He also massively misses the point that a LOT of jobs have already been lost due to venkys presence. The damage done not only to the club but the wider town and surrounding areas is immeasurable. If you're still working at Rovers and not checking seek on a daily basis then you've got nobody else to blame but yourself, because it's a case of when not if the shit hits the fan.

What's the link here Gary? Or have you done the classic reply to the bottom of the previous page?

Administration. I get excited every time I hear that word.

I honestly wouldn't give a single fuck. As long as they're gone I'll be more than happy with that. Cherry on the cake would be them all succumbing to bird flu.

But again it shows what kind of people are running the club that the access would be rescinded should they actually run any kind of story on what is actually happening.

Fourteen players needed with a minimum of eight as first team starters. Three weeks to go and so far we've signed a free agent GK that has played one senior game. Good work 👏 👏 👏

Like I said, softball.
