Relegation fodder. Think this is the season the years of mis management finally kills us.

Hopefully we wont see the same starting line up as against charlton again, but I think Ismael has his favourites now! Not sure the reluctance to start Gudjonsson. I'm assuming Albiolusi (Spelling?) is injured. The options at left wing are pretty dire. Toth Miller McGloughlin Wharton Ribiero Tronstadt TGH Moreshita Cantwell Yuki Gudjohnsson

What effect do the coalition statements have? Seemingly the club have no interest in the opinions of fans and fan groups. When is this independent football regulator due to be operational? Are these things the supporter trusts could refer to the regulator? I cant see any statements or fan pressure having any effect on the cancers in charge. The only way for change is some official external pressure that forces change or causes Venkys to sell up. Cant see it unfortunately.

Put the new lad in upfront. Hes not been signed as a bench warmer. Toth Albieousi Miller Wharton Ribiero TGH Tronstadt Moreshita Cantwell Yuki Gudjohnsson

Any indications when they will make a decision about a replay? Replaying full 11 v 11 from minute zero would be an absolute travesty. Id imagine there will be a lot of behind the scene arguing.

Its end of summer though. Grass is growing, water table isn't that high unlike winter. I'd be surprised if it flooded unless its absolute monsoon.

I went to the Bradford cup game at Ewood and he was awful. I didn't see any feature that looked promising, physically or technically. Early doors I guess and he may improve, but didn't look promising to me. I dont think hes placed since that game?

I was thinking earlier, despite all the crap going on with the club at the moment, selling anyone of any value, replacing with cheap foreigners...at least were not having to watch Mowbray teams with big lump strikers out on the wing and defensive midfielders as false 9s. Those days were an unbearable watch.

Good win at the weekend. I think we should start Gudjonsson as hes obviously match fit and scored against France. Theres no need for us to keep him on the bench. Harsh but either Hedges or Yuki to drop out for me. Similar to others sadly I think it will be a tight game but their extra quality will show in the end 1-2.

Ive watched Gueye live enough times now to know hes truly awful. Its clear he'll never be any good at championship level. The only way I see him being effective is if the team was set up for him to minimise him having the ball at his feet. Direct style of play and Two wingers putting crosses in towards his head. Thats not gonna happen though. I'd rather sell for a fee and get cover in on loan. On another note, I know nothing about him but the Birmingham Facebook page had lots of comments about it was silly of them to let TGH leave and was generally positive comments about him. Well see.

I understand its crazy to accept a bid on one of our few experienced players..but the money Wrexham and Birmingham are throwing around is crazy stuff. How much have they spent this window...£35m? Bet hes doubled his wages if not more. Never thought I'd say Wrexham are spending way beyond what we could ever have done in the championship.

Notice Emanuel Denis is now a free agent as of today. Wonder if hed be tempted back to prove a point. If Hyam goes this squad has relegation written all over if...if it doesn't already. Barely any experience anywhere and cheap as chips.

Saw his interview last night, which was nice. Its obviously a big life change for him leaving the club which is all he has known. I did get the impression listening to him, he's not entirely sure what he wants and wasn't exactly full of emotion or passion. I think he had some decent technique but lacks the sort of personality to become a very good player. Not much fight about him.

I went to the Bradford cup game, Henriksson was one of the worst players I've seen in a Rovers shirt. Literally couldn't control a ball, kept bouncing off his knees and shins. He also looked like he was running in treacle. Hadn't his season already started so he's had a full pre season and arguable further on in fitness than our players? Looked an absolute shocker to be honest. Hopefully it was nerves and confidence thing but I'm not sure. De Neve looked like another Hedges, runs around a lot but lost the ball repeatedly. Then scored a tidy finish. Hard to judge until he plays more but he looked more mobile than Henriksson. Thats the risk with buying loads of foreign unknowns. Some may adapt quickly, some adapt slowly and some are just shite.

Another player ive never heard of...although I could say that about 80% of players in the championship...presume this guy is a winner and not another 10 to clog up with cantwell and henrikssen. Has he got any pace? Big worry for me is lack of any championship experience and probable language barrier amongst players now.
