Presumably because April was pre one of their Indian court hearings, so no cash flow? But then again wasn’t it July we were told all this palava started?
But in the here and now as long as they keep getting the green light every 3 months from the court this ridiculous state of affairs will continue and any winding up petitions etc will be batted away?
This was my first thought.
We're nowhere near the end game with Venkys if they can continue to do this every 3 months.
Now the court accepted the first one I don't see how or why they will reject further applications.
No sunrise on the horizon folks.

No that's true.
Shame as the extra coverage that Wrexham get it would be an ideal game to do that sort of thing.

Wharton, Sigurdsson and Szmodics do. Just need a striker who does
So 3 our of a squad of 20 or so.
That along with results tells me that the playing style isn't working.

I imagine the Reading owner was sat in the stand.
Remember Rovers fans on the pitch exactly like this, shouting FOX OUT in front of the Nuttall Street Srand.
Of course he was present and there was someone to hurl the frustration at.
Oh if we knew then what we know now.
Whilst our owners are completely absent, there is nowhere to direct such action.
It would have to be a televised game abandoned to create even a ripple of attention with these cun7s.
Wrexham game is the one.

One time I do agree with Philipl.
10pts will be enough to see us through and we will pick up the odd result along the way to help it.
The sides in the bottom 3 won't all of a sudden start to win every week.

I really was hoping for a decent season this time around with another play off push. This result really is a kick in the teeth without mentioning the past few games. How long before we start seriously considering managerial changes?
Even if JDT was to go, the next appointment will just have to follow the same brief of "playing the right way" and I just don't see us being any better off.
The days of us employing an Allardyce style organiser to see us through are long gone I'm afraid.

Could of been that I forget.
Ridiculous discussion either way and has made me skeptical of the FF ever since. (Sorry @K-Hod!)

Not sure I agree that you can't replace Gallagher for that kind of money, when you look at some of the top scorers in the league. Morgan Whittaker was around £1m. Jack Clarke reported to be £750k. Crysencio Summerville reported to be around £1.25m. Conor Chaplin around £750k. Our own Sammy Szmodics was £1.8m according to the Peterborough chairman.
Good deals can be done if recruitment is up to scratch. Our current recruitment team's record on strikers is pretty appalling thus far though, so would I trust them to find a decent striker with £1.5m? Probably not. Besides of which, we'd probably see none or barely any of the money anyway, making selling Gallagher a pointless exercise.
The question should have been how do you replace Gallagher with £0? Because if we get 1.5m for him we won't be seeing any of it.
Might aswell keep him and have an experienced striker on the books, we're in enough trouble as it is on the pitch.

Don't take anything only2garners has to say seriously, same bloke who said to waggott and Co at the FF that we should put match day tickets up by £3 a game instead of charging the old waggott tax of £3 after 12pm on match days that we used to do.

16 minutes ago, arbitro said:He does but if players were upset about Travis going and took it into today's game then Szmodics would be exempt because he wasn't playing. I have no problem with players being supportive of a ex teammate but if they are sulking because of it then that speaks volumes for their lack of character. After Hyams display today I would take the captaincy off him and give it to Szmodics. Hyam just isn't a natural leader.
This was obvious to me after the Burnley game. Even when I used to play Sunday league if someone had pulled that trick of smashing the keeper into the net after scoring our center half, captain or not would have gone ballistic and chased the striker off the pitch.
Not here though, it's shoulders shrugged, heads down and go on to give the home side the easiest half hour they have had all season.

As a member of The Trust I’d like Steve Waggott to urgently, on the record, clarify:
1) The current situation RE the owners legal issues with the Indian Government
2) When is the latest the owners reasonably expect the issue to be resolved
3) Confirmation as to whether or not the budget reduction from the owners will be reallocated to the club once the issue is resolved
4) Whether or not given the restrictions he believes the owners would entertain discussions about the sale of the club
These will never be answered.

It is my sad duty to report that having had to endure that garbage at the Hawthorns today that Rovers are going to be relegated
11 players who have given up and not fighting for their shirt or the club
I will still take that bet.
10pt buffer will see us through.
Next season though 🫣

Just back.
An absolute shambles from start to finish.

I would sell Gallagher for £1.5m if we can reinvested the money and bring in players with it .
Come on Chaddy what on earth makes you think we will reinvest that money.
If it was to happen your looking at a loan player at best.

In fairness to Gallagher we didn't cross him a ball for about 3 years.
He himself was tasked with putting the crosses in for those 3 years, for giants like Armstrong and Dolan in the box.

I imagine Lancs police may object.
Over 6k came from Preston on a Friday night, can't see why this would be any different to that?

Shrewsbury v Wrexham was 2pm Sunday on S4C.
It was, but that didn't clash with any of the ITV/BBC games, if that is a condition then i notice there is nothing in the Saturday 530 slot for that day so it could well go there.

I think we're lucky that we have that 10 point buffer and think that and picking up a few more results in the next 20 games will see us through. I do think we'll be looking over our shoulder but don't see us entering the bottom 3 at all.
Next season is the big worry if the transfer window's follow suit from this season.

WBA 2 Rovers 2
It's time for a draw, well concede early and late but be 2-1 up in between.
We drew the last game, with that ratio our next draw will probably be in April!

Can't see anything here considering we concede at least two a game.

The keeper whichever plays will give them a goal, and we will concede at least one header from a set piece/long throw.
Anything after that who knows?
Having to score 3 or 4 a week to win can't keep on continuing but i imagine it will.
