Adding a name to my long list of footballers I’ve written off ever being anymore than lower Championship at best: Aynsley Pears Joe Rankin Costello Harry Pickering Dion Sanderson John Buckley Adam Forshaw Ryan Hedges Trhys Dolan Makhkar Gueye NEW: Amario Cozier-Duberry

Uniquely, the digital tickets actually work quite well at Rovers.

Means nothing. Once you’ve watched your club announce a transfer, release an interview, picture him in the kit then realise they forgot to send the paperwork, nothing is off limits.

Yet if it’s 0-0 in the 93rd minute and the ball falls to someone in the box, I want it to be him.

Still maintain if we can get him playing, Sigurddson is the best winger we have.

Scott Wharton.

We’ll buy you lunch and coffee all day if you sit by the entrance and report back.

Not until I’m getting paid a 350K / year salary.

Reads to me like Rovers leaked Cissoko being the second option as a “take it or leave it” to Kargbo’s team.

Pandemonium in full effect here. It’s as if you lot haven’t lived through the same years I have. Regardless of transfers, dropping 9 points in the last 3 games will be the difference between a successful and failure of a season. All because whatever we do, we left it too late.

I can’t remember the exacts anymore, but I gave Waggott some more than harsh words. Haven’t been invited back since!

Not trying to do the ITK thing because I'm dreadful at it - but this is the player I’ve heard today: https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/benjamin-kimpioka/profil/spieler/433652

If you think these people (Venkys, Suhail, Waggott) have any interest in the betterment of this club I’m really sorry to say they’re abusing you. They’re abusing the good nature, passion and commitment of the fans. They’re abusing the hard work of the manager and players. The ground has been abused. The training ground has been abused. The squad has been abused. At this point I genuinely consider it mental abuse. It’s a disgrace and the sooner they’re called out on it the better.

Anyone with any optimism about this season, or any other, should be forced to watch this match on repeat until they understand what is happening here. This squad is stretched and desperate. We’re not going anywhere, ever, whilst Venkys are here. Venky’s have turned Rovers into PNE.

Seeing the suggestion of playing Dolan CM is absolutely brilliant.

I’m sure we’ll sign an obscure player for hardly any money with a limited history of success for peanuts and everyone will get excited again shortly. Until it becomes apparent they’re not up to it.

This is one of the most bonkers arguments I see get made on here. There’s 8 league games between 1st Jan and 4th Feb, that’s 24 points. The squad is desperately short and each game we play - see Oxford - with a depleted squad is playing with fire.

If that starting 11 is announced I won’t even bother attempt to turn the TV on and stream it.

Totally understand the gamble on not spending to replace Baker and getting a cheap option in Forshaw. But that gamble could be season defining. Forshaw was a really good championship player, but he simply cannot keep up with play. Based on that performance his legs have gone completely. I’m really, really worried if we go into the next three games having to pick two from Buckley, Forshaw and JRC.

We won’t spend 2.5M. Thats what we are waiting for.

He’s actually a surprisingly efficient operator. He’s managing to do exactly what the owners want and not cause protests.

Delusion, naivety and a confusing lack of acknowledgement to recent history.

Very hard for a number 10 to be effective without a good number 9. What I’d give to sign a 28 year old Danny Graham.

Buckley having 134 minutes this season and 500 odd minutes last season tells me one thing - neither JDT nor Eustace thought he was good enough. And I agree - in my opinion it looks like he can play, but only if it’s on his terms. If he isn’t allowed to stroll around and attempt to dictate play he’s in trouble. He can’t tackle, can’t beat the press, can’t shoot and doesn’t have an outstanding engine on him.
