Emerald Isle Rover

When he arrived we were 6th one point in the playoff and 3 points from 9th 4 points from 11th wouldn’t call that comfortable

That someone is wrong

4/10 - losing hyam was criminal

Are you well sir? Hyam is gone

Comfortably away from the circus here

Iv said this for a while elliot Jackson is too nice just does his job and no more he isn’t a rovers fan he just reports so it’s no odds to him

Irrelevant because it means when missing we are likely to be even weaker than we already are so strange take

They will announce Hickman deal alongside or after the hyam announcement thinking it will take the edge off what they have actually done then we won’t hear from the puppet masters for 2/3 weeks and then they will come out with the usual nonsense of ‘let’s get behind these new players’ ‘it’s a new era at the club’ bla bla I doubt any media will give them any grilling at all

Arguably been our best defender bar that moment of madness

We’re not in financial trouble though

That will be the spin 100% ‘ we have money in Jan’

As a leader no thanks he’s a very solid cb at this level if you think otherwise then I can’t help you

As for Val Iv maintained this stance ‘he knew what he was coming into’ no sympathy for him Iv actually lost a bit of respect for him truth be told

Was our player of the year not so long ago barely missed a game it’s a shocker

The spin now will be the buzz word transition - mistakes of the past meant players out of contract could leave if the right money came in now all we need to do is bed the new players in and get behind the team then here’s the kicker they will promote Jan as being a window we will now target Iv remained calm always said wait to window is closed but that’s it pretty much done and tbh looks like rovers could be done too bottom 5 battle commences

Wonder how chaddy will spin this

So that’s a wrap hyam gone with an hour to go hickman in as windows go this is worse than the failed paper work ones truly awful

I’m a fan of a Monday Club beer but I think you have had way too many

Nobody inside seems to know either

No centre midfielder he will be gone come October internationals looking forward to hearing the absolute nonsense that will come from Rudy about how this window has been exciting - will cite gudjohnsen and Morishita signings which will then in turn fall into they are going to need time to get up to speed etc so predictable

He literally said yesterday rovers were interest in Browne and Val said we aren’t not sure what more proof is required there

I agree this Derby comparison stuff is irrelevant we’re both crap

One that can progress the ball forward 100% is a must

You’ve just proven my point we don’t know his situation that’s alarming in itself there shouldn’t be a grey area a player is either fit or not fit By saying that link isn’t true I haven’t spoken with the player is dismissing it gudjohnsen isn’t over the line but we need another one along with a mf

If Val is happy with our current midfield options then it’s highly likely he won’t see the second international break Signing a player who is injured and the boss doesn’t know what the situation is with the injury or has a timeframe is baffling considering our needs he dismissed Browne because let’s be honest he will be on the high side of our wage budget we need an experienced mf and we need a striker ready to hit the ground running the excuses stop now the window will be closed there’s 2 weeks of training it’s all duck or no dinner
