J*B

He’s been offered a contract but has better offers elsewhere. Rovers won’t match it. We’re on the FFP slide now, this year was our chance financially, we’re now cutting costs to leave a financial gap to go for it again in ~2 years.

Too many half interested at this club - years of being rubbish, then 2 months playing well when his contract wasn’t renewed to put himself in the shop window. Get rid, hopefully Pickering can play, develop a youth player. Crewe fans seem to love him, although worth remembering Bell was L1 Team of the Year when we signed him and he’s not up to it.

I reckon we’ll start next season as we’ve finished this one management wise.

Sounds pretty cut and dry to me - they got less than 15m for him.

There goes your lads credibility. They sold him 6 months ago.

Currently our biggest rivals are the senior management and the owners.

Calm down folks...

A shame, a good footballer if you ask me. Much rather see him starting than Evans, Trybull, Johnson, Buckley etc. Hopefully it’s because he wants to move back to Germany to be with his family, which you can understand.

Buy league one players, get league one football, to paraphrase a poster from yesteryear.

I’ll have that tenner too please.

Kind of - but this sures it up.

Ah ok - we did get an invite then, it just must have been direct to K-Hod. Apologise!

BRFCS was 100% not invited.

You’ll be able to view the T&Cs without accepting them - but you won’t be able to post without accepting the T&Cs. It’s all the usual stuff - the only significant change is that posters will become legally responsible for their own content, thus protecting the site owners.

Because the T&Cs are long. Once they’re live they’ll be posted and if anyone has any questions they’re welcome to email us for further clarification.

Just a quick FYI - shortly all accounts, new and old will need to accept new T&Cs to continue using BRFCS. You’ll shortly get an on screen message which you must accept to continue posting from your account. Please email admin@brfcs.com if you have any questions.

He is who you think he is!

We’re usually invited to Fans Forum and Supporter Consultation Meetings and haven’t heard of either being arranged.

There is indeed a review scheduled for the May, but that’s always the case. Knowing our luck we will win all our remaining fixtures and finish 11th or something.

Nick there’s absolutely nothing I have said to you in private messages that I wouldn’t say on this thread. Your post makes it out like we have some sort exclusive private messages going around that other people cannot know about - that’s simply not true.

I’m not boycotting like I once was. I said this earlier. I’ve gone through all different stages - refused to buy a season ticket, away cash only games (Rovers don’t get anything when it’s cash only), away games only, only go to home games if the ticket is already paid for. I’m now at ‘will buy game tickets home and away when suits, but won’t buy a season ticket’. I’m not buying a season ticket until there’s something I can get behind. I don’t care if that’s League 1 with Gareth Ainsworth. In fact I’d rather that than Premier League with Steve Kean. Until I feel a connection to the players on the pitch and the approach from the club I’m not handing over ST money. I’d love to be an Accy fan - I really like that they’re doing, alas I’m not.

The problem I’ve always found is that Venkys feel taken advantage of and that’s the memo. If we drive Pasha out we’re not going to help with that. We’re just making it even harder for them. This is all my opinion of course - but I personally think the only way out of this is to work with Suhail and gain Venkys trust as fans. The absolute worst thing you can do is email them/phone them/WhatsApp them saying “Waggott, Mowbray and Cheston are all rubbish, they’re not to be trusted, I know people that can do their job better” or similar. They’ll never trust a word you say and you’ll be forever branded as someone trying to take advantage.

Last time I looked Venkys personal bodyguards still used this forum to assess opinion. I’d start there 🙂

There really isn’t much to say that hasn’t been said. He’s a nice enough guy for what it’s worth. Obviously knew very little about football originally but understands it more now. Wants the club to do well, wants to protect the owners, doesn't want any limelight, doesn’t trust many. All of these people are here because it’s a job. One of the hardest things for fans to get around is that this is just work to them, there isn’t the level of passion that the fans have.

This is a discussion forum, if it isn’t the place for tip offs I don’t know what is. The place is built on tip offs! I’m totally bemused as to what you’re getting at, if it makes it easier I’m happy to share every single private message we’ve ever had? I’ll do a summary if easier..?
