Emerald Isle Rover

Don’t think Iv seen anybody say he’s the worst player to play for rovers tbh there is an under appreciation of him no doubt

I agree anything less than 3mill we should just keep him if he sulks etc does an isak then that’s on him

Didn’t realise he was injured but torp is and has been an ever present when fit he chips in with more goal contributions whilst grimes will do the holding role - Travis doesn’t get in ahead of torp for me - Travis much more aligned to grimes and he doesn’t get ahead of him either imo

You would think that but it sounds like he has an agreement with Derby in principle pending an offer being accepted again whether that’s because they are the only team officially in for him remains to be seen but I agree Coventry would be more ambitious but won’t be an easy gig for him there either they have Allen torp grimes and sheaf all competing for centre mid

I think this will be the case Derby have other needs and won’t spend the 3mill itl take for venkys to budge on Travis 1.5 plus bonuses was their second offer which is insulting in itself Coventry could well step in - however Travis said he wants to go to Derby whether that’s because they are the only official team in for him or if it’s because of Eustace

Very injury prone which means we are likely to be interested

I’m the same but willing to give him a chance considering what he has to work with here it’s a hard gig but a Barnsley fan saying that is crazy

Think the manager deserves a run of games before the jury is out on him when JDT went through his bad patch it was because of no squad depth injuries je he over Xmas and new year 2 wins in 11 was because of injuries and squad depth look at what Val is working with here I think he deserves some grace for a period of time

Agreed it’s madness how anybody watching the first two games think on it one more up top will be enough truly mental

Assuming by stating they have someone in mind - could be putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5

And as predicted an article this morning about being ‘nearer’ to the rw signing but no names given

After calming down and sleeping on it Iv woke up to……still being annoyed How the muppets above still insist or think one more attacking player is enough really baffles me

I can only go by what’s stated on the sites as Iv no other information elsewhere.

So tomorrow as does happen with rovers with bad news there will be a story or a link to try and soften the blow Who are we guessing I think baradji name will be put out in the morning again

Well that does happen coming through the academy you get paid an academy wage until your first ‘big’ contract most sites have him at 15k with hyam and cantwell at the top around 20k

That link is wrong

I’m just tired of it all and we’re 10 days in just get rid of Travis tronstad and hyam now so we don’t have to keep talking about it actually draining

And there is nothing we can do protests won’t/don’t work we are just caught in no man’s land it’s a hard watch at the minute

And here we have it I actually thought it was have been end of the month but the chaos has now started imagine your club captain has actually asked to leave to speak/go to Derby it’s truly baffling but unsurprising

It is hard to not feel pretty deflated after that it was obviously a second string ish team. If they think one more attacking signing is enough then I will nail down my opinion to a bottom 6 scrap I think what worried me most tonight was all the talk of tyjon and Montgomery both were v poor tonight l. Tavares did ok right winger centre mid and striker required and all for starting 11 not just to be signed to appease fans

More the fool him

It’s Baradji that’s the replacement

Im personally not sold on Eustace but its damning of the behind the scenes shit show that a manager is willing to walk out mid season to a team that could have been playing league one the following season

We shouldn’t be in a transitional period though we came 7th last year and a goal away from the playoffs in normal run clubs they look at that and go ok we have a team here capable of competing at the top end of the champ so we’re going to go for it lock down key players - failed (2 have openly stated they want/wanted to stay) invest in the areas that we fell slightly short on last season ie winger/striker - ultimately goals but instead we have stated we aren’t paying our key players a wage satisfactory of their role/importance so we are going to sell them or lose for free and then replace them with unknowns now some of the unknowns could well be good or come good but to do so many in the one window it’s very very clear it’s cost cutting as opposed to ambition.

Don’t really know tbh just going off quite a lot of what their fans are saying which is if they have ‘x’ amount left of their budget they needs wingers and right back but I do think Eustace will be pushing hard yes they seem to have a lot of injuries and re-occurring injuries to some
