J*B

Can you send us the link to the form?

I posted this at the time and was shot down big time. Travis especially was not happy one bit with his behaviour.

There’s no chance Everton give us 9M plus Simms… even Simms on loan… even 9M! That smells of bullshit to me. I guess we will see on point 2, if that’s true they should be signed, unveiled and training within 72 hours. On point 1 I think signing Scandinavian players is likely, I believe their season is over (and players are out of contract)?

I’d rather we signed a very good finisher. Someone who finishes more than they miss. Jordan Rhodes 2.0. The Sunderland one (Stewart) would be an ideal but I can’t see that for the life of me… so use the data and the scouting team to find the next best thing.

Not really - he can’t get into the Olympiacos team, can’t get into the Forest team and can only play for Blackpool under the “can’t play for more than two clubs in a season” rule.

Think Gally does enough/is good enough to play a role as a striker for us. If I was in charge it would be an alternative/something different I would be buying. Feels like we only really have Dolan and Dack that offers something different.

Very bloody uncomfortable, that.

Random market research: can anyone that wants to help please DM me a list of Rovers transfer sources they look out for during the transfer window? I’m thinking Peter O’Rourke, Elliott Jackson, Rich Sharpe, Alan Nixon… is there anyone else people look out for (and/or believe)?

Here’s hoping, that would be a Christmas miracle.

Ground out a gritty 1-0 win on a dreadful pitch to stop a losing run. It wasn’t classy but it did the job.

Don’t bank on it.

EDUN?! I’d hoped we’d never see him again, that’s a huge disappointment.

Yep, playing counter football.

Not on this pitch. We need players that can win long balls and press.

Playing silly buggers with the old playing it out from the back here.

3-4-1-2 Wharton, Ayala, Hyam Pickering, Morton, Garrett, Hedges Dack Gallagher BBD

Well well well..!

The plan looks explicitly clear to me… we retain possession and move the ball around, targeting long balls and 1v1s with their right back Ng. Dack is doubling up on our left wing to try and bring their right centre back out of position. Hedges has clearly been told to bring their left back (who looks good - O’Dowd?) inside to create space for JRC on the right wing.

I can’t see it. We’ve threatened far more, if we lose this then it’s a huge fuck up.

Or like Wharton can do.

We’re much better than them. Just need to push ten yards up the pitch and control the ball better.

We’ll win tomorrow assuming we can keep 10 on the pitch, they’re rubbish.

4-6 away, it’s quite a bad one.

I think sympatheticclaret and Longers are some of the sites best posters, to be fair. Longers has been here longer than me!

Buckley appeal rejected.
