  1. That and the message that came from the club after the McGuire transfer failed, that they were going to pursue a pre contract agreement for the player to join in the summer. I wish either had the guts to call them out on it, is it still being actively worked on or was it just a nonsense sound bite to pull one over the fans.
  2. Now, we are fucked! On the plus side I have only 2 more months of seeing Sam Gallagher stealing a living as a Rovers "forward". An experienced forward when we need everyone to the fore, and he is the softest big lad ever.
  3. Absolutely zero chance we get anything out of this.... and if my betting history/predictions is anything to go by that should be the kiss of death for Swansea!
  4. Yeh this is 100% deliberate as far as I am concerned. For it to happen where 2 of the 3 failures were for biggish money/wages yet we see frees and loans coming in with relatively no issue. Oh and no problems with submitting forms or paperwork when we are selling players I notice. An actual attempt at sabotage by Waggott and Venkys and then a muddled up sh*t-show attempt to appease fans by having a group of footballers cobbled together. Stinks to the high heavens just like everything else Rovers this week. Just when you think the club couldn't embarrass itself further it keeps surprising us.
  5. After the last few days I was checking the Rovers page on Facebook and its got to a stage where I fully believe there are Venkys plants employed by the club who are putting up a good 1/3 of the posts. Some of the content there is just beyond mental. The lad below with his 172 likes about how selling our prized assets for 18m and just bringing in loans and freebies is the sign of smart business. Oh and that we should basically be counting our lucky stars that we have our glorious overlords as no one else would want to own a club that is one of only 7 teams that has won the Premier League!! I despair, I really do.
  6. Is there anything Rovers Trust can do to reach out to them. If its a randomer they will probably ignore it but if its a group they might find it hard to turn away. Even first of all reach out that a lot of the fans are unhappy with how the paper has portrayed things these 13 years and they have a duty to call things out
  7. I really wish I could just stop caring, because at the moment its just torture. The lads with power to make decisions obviously don't care or (in the case of India) probably have forgotten we even exist. As others have said the losses are bad enough but the way we carry ourselves as a club is just beyond amateurish and disgraceful, the convenient issues with the paperwork for the second January window in a row. Those in power are actively trying to sabotage the club. One thing I did yesterday was to unfollow the official Rovers twitter account. With all the shitshow of the last month, them posting out the usual tripe of catering updates and tickets available for Norwich - get behind the lads was just too much. Its nothing really but its the only power I have as far as this club goes!
  8. I assumed that was all done and dusted, at least the loan til the end of the season? What has happened there? On the match was there much boos or reaction from the crowd afterwards? The chants against Waggott and Venkys are encouraging. As far as relegation goes, we are goosed as far as I am concerned. People saying that we will be ok this year but will struggle next year, but we are in freefall and too much of the season is still to play for. Right now we look like a total wet blanket that will roll over at the first hint of pressure.
  9. Don't worry lads, we've got our best man on the case to get the signing over the line! Ian Silvester is standing by with a pen that doesn't work!
  10. He's the same as all the others though in the last 4 or so months. Players taking the piss with zero passion or drive because there is no consequences. Because JDT has half thrown in the towel and refusing to try different approaches as he has zero consequences and knows he is not going to get the sack from Waggott or Broughton. Because they have zero consequences against an ownership who could not give a toss and probably need to be reminded every 3 months they still own a football club. Meanwhile the fans have the soul sucked out of them, im literally at the point where I dont care. Which is heart breaking to say.
  11. In fairness it explains why Moran was doing naff all on the pitch, he was posting into brfcs under the username of gazza1981!
  12. I agree. The cause of our problems is and always will be in India, but it shouldn't take much for a manager to realise we are shot confidence wise, leaking like a sieve and time to move away from tippy-tappy at the back nonsense. Get 5 at the back 2 battlers in midfield and set up as disciplined as possible to eek out points. JDT is just as bad as Mowbray in his inability to halt a slide or alter tactics if plan A is not working it seems.
  13. Its bonkers as far as I am concerned. Regardless of whether he is getting a game lately (and he absolutely should have been tried at least somewhere in the latest losing run), he is still an experienced head in a squad full of kids. I wouldnt have been a fan of selling him as there should be always a place for him in the team if not the squad, but to just loan him out to a team riding high just seems such an odd decision when we are already at the bare bones for squad depth.
  14. Sleep walking into a relegation fight that we have zero spine for. There is zero positivity right now
  15. Ball is in the general vicinity of our 18 yard box, usually spells disaster. Remember when we used to be able to actually defend!
  16. Yep we should totally get him signed up. To mirror what rovers11 mentioned above he didn't have that immediate impact I thought he would but you could point to different reasons for that. He was injured when joining, the fact he was off with Iceland for each international break thus not getting a rest or more time with his team mates, and also that he is obviously not there yet fitness wise. I think once he gets to full fitness, gets 90+ mins each game under his belt we'll see the best of him. Unfortunately other teams will aswell so we kinda got to move fast on this one to tie how down when he is a bit under the radar right now.
  17. And yet some members of this very board seem to be unable to bring themselves to say anything negative at all about our owners, instead pushing the blame for any and all ills to the management team in this country. Waggot is not without blame of course and by right should have been relieved of his position years ago, but its madness for anyone associated with Rovers not to see that the source of all of our problems are based millions of miles away in Pune.
  18. It’s almost like he has gotten zero cash from the owners to actually buy a forward!!
  19. Dont think this one is on Leo. There was zero pressure on Whiteman crossing the ball in, as soon as he had time to drop it in the box we were goosed. Brittain could have been stronger aswell, similar to what someone said above about how Potts defended against Wharton at the other end.
  20. We constantly seem to what to look for the eye of a needle pass, ignoring a more simple pass and instead just forcing it into an area with loads of bodies. Playing intricate stuff is all well and good but we need to spread out the play a bit to open space. We're also ridiculously open, no wonder the defenders are having a hard time when at times in the first half both Wharton and Travis seemed to be pushing around Leicester's 18 yard box to close down a kickout. Its mental, we dont have the players either up front or defence for this sort of game plan.
  21. Just realized we are on Sky for this one, if history has thought us anything that generally means we're goosed to begin with!
  22. Finally got a chance to look at the very limited highlights that Sky provide. Bloody hell that Dolan chance, assumed it was bad but that was just bonkers. Never mind a bad miss as that can happen to all players, that attempted header looks more like he is trying not to score, he seems to be trying to get his head under it in a clearing fashion. Its that bad you would nearly question is there some betting scam going on with him!
  23. Ah don’t worry Merce! I’m sure that optimism will be back by next weekend when you will be confidently predicting a handy victory! 😁 (Joking aside totally agree though. The Sigurdsson signing when we were then thinking that Adams and Despodov were incoming seem a lifetime ago now)
