  1. Our owners are disgustingly wealthy. Their wealth outshines most if not all of the other teams in our league. But Rovers are well and truly barrel scraping paycheck to paycheck skint. The money they spend to keep us afloat is down to their own incompetence. All you have to do is compare where we were as a club the day before they took over and where we are today. We have been lucky in who we have employed down at Rovers. Mowbray, Bowyer, JDT, Eustace, Broughton. And the fantastic players we have been able to pick up. We have massively overachieved over the past few years where as other clubs with poor ownership have floundered. This is both a blessing and a curse. Rovers still exists playing at a decent level but the venkys are still here and those who don’t follow closely don’t realize their damage.
  2. Think it’s a decent pick up in all honesty. Unless he’s a replacement for either Tronstad or Travis. I can stomach Forshaw as a bit part player, he’s nowhere near as bad as people claim.
  3. If you don’t rate Sondre Tronstad as a footballer, particularly at championship level then quite frankly, you should watch another sport
  4. They had the Lancashire rose in last seasons kit. Downgraded to a stem.
  5. It’s a nice shirt. And in any other year would have zero complaints minus the inability to remember our halves should be reversed on the back. However, I can’t be alone in thinking they had built this up to be a special shirt to celebrate 150 years. I was expecting this to be very different, just like the beautiful Port Vale strip this year. Yes, they will clearly release a special anniversary shirt at some point and the team will use it for one game but it should have been our shirt for the entire season. 150 years is a hell of a milestone to reach. Overall decent shirt, disappointed the only thing special about it is in the collar at the back of the neck. A real missed opportunity.
  6. That's what they came up with? They're doing a special pre kit reveal for that? Guess the survey they did was a waste of time. It's okay, just not a 150 year anniversary special.
  7. Bring back Gregg Broughton. The only man who seemingly understood how contract negotiations worked
  8. Strong start to the season. Injuries hit after Christmas. Poor January window. Form falls off a cliff. Good end to the season. Repeat.
  9. Some very odd changes towards the end. Put us under so much pressure and killed what little attacking intent we had. No words for Dennis, a very expensive risk which backfired massively. Another disappointing end to what looked like a very promising season. Lord knows what summer brings us and what final day drama we will be involved in next season.
  10. We win and we're in the playoffs. Everything going our way.
  11. Whether there has been a publicly interested buyer isn't the point. How many EFL clubs have changed ownership while we have been stuck with the Venkys? How many clubs have improved since their awful owners left. Blackpool... Bolton.... Wigan..... The list goes on. Why would Rovers be any different? We are bigger and more attractive than any of them. We aren't asking for Saudi money, we aren't expecting to be the next Man City. We just want competent owners who care.
  12. Very true. Waggott, Suhail and the leadership at Rovers are famous for not lying, misleading, or attempting to manipulate the fanbase. If they say there's been no interest, there's been no interest. (sarcasm)
  13. Football clubs in England never get bought, especially in this part of the country. Blackpool, Burnley, Bolton, Wigan have had the same owners for years. What? Such a ridiculous narrative that nobody would buy us. Constantly pushed out there by people defending the Venkys. If they want to sell, there will be many interested parties.
  14. William Bancroft? Died a couple of years ago
  15. Andy Bayes challenging Suhail commenting that the unrest is coming from one group of supporters was great. Shame our club media don't do the same.
  16. Another hour of these clowns with Andy Bayes if anyone can stomach it
