J*B

I'm still watching too. Exactly this, I haven't seen any indication that anyone or anything has been delayed.

I must have missed this, I don't remember hearing it?

Also John Eustace and Steve Waggott dialled in.

Thats me. Wrong info though - we're item 36. They're on item 27 now.

I can't listen to much more of this. I've no idea whats going on.

What number are we? Have you got a link to it?

Do the right thing and force them to sell us, Mr Sanjeev Narula. You can have the keys to Blackburn in return.

Worth noting, whilst I agree you've got a fantastic player - and importantly, person - you where the only club in world football that bid the asking price for him. So whilst I agree with the sentiment, to say the fee is 'derisory' simply doesn't make sense. If it was a derisory fee then we'd have been batting off bids.

The excuse, I would hypothesise, is if they lose the court case on Tuesday or the same restrictions remain, the money generated will cover us until the next appeal ergo can't be spent.

JRC when fit Sigurdsson when on his game

Go well, Dacky. Some fantastic performances for this club and a player that was universally loved and has never said a bad word about us. Totally appalled by some of the comments i've seen from 'Rovers fans' - mostly on X - seemingly mocking him for having two major injuries. No wonder players don't want to stay here for their full career.

Couldn't agree more - thanks for everything Sammie, when we needed someone to step up you rose to the challenge and played with both arte et labour, i'll always give you a round of applause for that.

Kept us afloat Jan - August

9M + add ons being reported by Ipswich local journalist.

I say that’s Kalvin Phillips.

Sammie gone according to SSN, medical in the morning. I see three scenarios playing out: 1) Venkys win their court case on Tuesday and - subject to still being interested in doing so - begin to fund the club again. That will mean we will have the Szmodics money and potentially the Raya money to spend this window. 2) Venkys have their case pushed back again and the Szmodics money is banked to cover running costs until January 3) Venkys lose the court case, the Szmodics money is used to cover loses whilst a buyer is fou

Two working days until the court case is my assumption as to why we’ve gone quiet.

I cannot for the life of me comprehend how anyone thinks Markanday is above L2 level. He's atrocious, the worst of our wingers by a country mile.

For what its worth I often work at Stockport - we hire your ground for film shoots - and the improvements in both facilities and staff over the last 5 years is fantastic. You're certainly a club on the up.

You’ve come to exactly the right place - we’ve a whole host of players not up to Championship level. What position are you most in need of?

I’d put you above Vale in the pecking order.

Rovers decide his value to Rovers, not his market value.

Thats our valuation, not the markets valuation, as I said. No, that’s your valuation. If the only bid you get for your car that’s up for sale is £50, which you don’t think is enough, then your personal valuation is higher than it’s market value.

Let me try this another way: If Ipswich are the only club seemingly in world football interested and their max bid is £8,500,00 … that means his value is £8,500,000. We can all debate his value to Rovers, or in comparison to other players fees or what we think they should be paying. But the market dictates his value. This will go south very quickly if we don’t agree terms soon and at that point I don’t blame Szmodics one bit. The difference with Gestede? He threw his toys out and refused to play after about 48 hours because he wanted his payday. Sammie is still playing and scoring after about 4 weeks.

If he moves to Ipswich he’s going to be rich beyond his wildest dreams. At 29, he will never get this opportunity again. I’ll eat my hat if he doesn’t get the move, I don’t care what anyone says about his attitude if he hasn’t moved in 2 weeks he will force one. And rightfully so.
