It's the deals for the likes of Gladwin and Hart that had me scratching my head.

I can't see anybody buying Dack until they've seen him play a few games. If they do it'll be a bit down now and the rest after so many games.

I think we're pissing on our shoes at the moment.

Games are only easy if you make them easy. You always treat your opponents with respect, if you don't perform on the day it's not going to end well. We all know the script. However when does he ever talk our guys up ? He's more concerned with stopping our opponents than he his giving them something to worry about.

Obviously not.

I would have thought the " Platt money " would have bought the lads a round of drinks.

I'm sick of hearing this sort of stuff. I never went into a game thinking we couldn't win. Lots of time I was wrong ( including a 16-2 defeat as a kid ) but I didn't start the game thinking like that.

Jesus, no wonder we lost !

2 headed goals I believe.

If what Kamy is saying is correct I suspect any sort of offer for Wharton will do.

We'll be accepting any offers that come our way, especially for what Mowbray perceives as fringe players.

If we are potless I wouldn't be bothering with Downing any longer. In fact I wouldn't be bothering with Downing full stop.

Just like the Rhodes money.

Cheaper - yes, midtable - unlikely.

We should have thanked him for getting us promoted and then showed him the door. Enthusiasm for the club was on a high and we were well placed to attempt a serious push for promotion. Instead he's managed to dissipate that feel good feeling and blow whatever chances of serious advancement we have with this ludicrous " slow build " concept of football management. It was obvious at the time to those with eyes that see that he wasn't the man to take us any further. You've got to be ruthless to succeed in pro football.

Much as I like both of those players " prized jewels " is a bit of an exaggeration. Certainly in Mowbray's head.

Nice lads.

I don't want to be argumentative but good headers of the ball playing up front score their fair share of headed goals, he didn't.

It's not every day you see our owners and the word clever mentioned in the same sentence.

Sat Sept 26th. Rovers 3- Leicester 1 Att - 14,964 Scorers - McEvoy, Ferguson, Byrom. Jones. Newton, Joyce. Clayton, Mulvaney, McGrath. Ferguson, McEvoy, Byrom, Douglas, Harrison.

I was right behind the goal as well, sort of in line with the path of the ball. I can't agree he was a good header of the ball. He had a great spring in his legs and he could get up for a header better than most but after that where the ball went was another story.

Our whole scattergun approach to recruitment gets me down. We're no nearer to having a consistently coherent way of playing now than we were 3 years ago. We don't ever seem to know our best team for more than a couple of games. I find it really difficult to believe that an experienced professional management team could have got things so badly wrong for so long.

On a scale of 0 to 10, 10 being wildly enthusiastic I'd say I'm on about 2 at the moment.

Will that be before we get to 250 pages or 300 ?

I see they've just signed the Greek lad to cover for Robertson.
