Very happy with the Weimann signing. Loads of experience and goals at this level..can play 3 or 4 different positions. Still need experience keeper, left back, pacey winger and centre midfielder in. My Liverpool STH work colleague rates him. Says he needs first team football now which we can offer, can play either wing position.

So how much bigger do you want us squad to then 24/25 players. Leonard is out till September with his shoulder. Hilton will be either 3rd choice or loan out. Markanday I would loan out again. For me, we need around 25 players this season with 5 signings we achieve this. Loans all depends on quality. Tyjon and Duru would be part of our squad for me.

I guess its depends who the 3 is. As a guess Hyam. My prefer would have been left footed centre back either perm or loan. lets look at the squad Keeper - Pears, Hilton, New Signing Right back - Brittain, Duru Centre back - Hyam, Carter, O'Riordan, Batth, McFadzean Left back - Pickering, New Signing Centre midfielder - Travis, Tronstad, Buckley, New Signing RW - Hedges, JRC, Markanday Number 10 - Szmodics, Sigurdsson, Weimann LW - Dolan, New Signing Striker - Gueye, Yuki, Leonard, Vale, Tyjon So for me, we need 4 signings, maybe 5 if Szmodics leaves. Plus is Sigurdsson going or leaving

Woah, If I had a tenner for every time you mention a tipping point I could have bought Man City. I see Szmodics is still here and no agreement yet.

well Josh, Its the way we been playing in pre season

no 4-2-3-1 formation but when we have the ball Pickering stay back and Brittain move forward to provide the width from the right and JRC moves inside to the 10 role. With Dolan provides the width from the left

We will need 5 centre backs this season. We will switch to back 3 at times. Also Connor is one who will play his part this season Cos Ipswich aren't willing to pay the fee we want. With Garrett going on loan, we will need a centre midfielder signing, Deffo still need first choice keeper, pacey winger, left back and replacement for Szmodics.

Totally understand completely Matty as I said a number of times but I also accept that football is changing and that clubs thought the TV rights were worth more than they were getting. I fully accept all that this new TV deal massively affects match going fans. I was speaking to a friend this morning who is die hard Blackpool FC STH and goes to many away games. He almost walk away this season from going cos of the cost of STH and the changing kick off times. Also said he will be doing less less away games this coming season cos of this new TV deal. On your question, not recently like yourself, I wanted to go Leeds away last season but situation didn't allow at all. Now doing away games is much more difficult cos of my missus illness getting worse and me needed to be home more. I missed doing the away games and local ones are much easier cos of the time away from home.

Who was going to stop this deal given it was the EFL clubs who wanted more TV revenue so the EFL negotiated the best deal they could for what was vote I have plenty of empathy for fans effective by the change of kick off time but this was always going to be case. 4am? would be fantastic given I worked night 😉 What about them? Football in the UK is changing with clubs wanted more TV revenue income so more games go on TV What are you going on about again? just rants after rants.

where did I say I was context? I didn't but this is Eustace full season in charge and there is alot of changes at the club. It will take time for players to settle here. I wish we were spending the we had received in the past 12 months but we aren't as much as we would all like. That' the decisions they have been made. Cos looking at the massive turnover in players, Losing Szmodics will hit us hard and we aren't spending money on championship players like Conway or Thomas-Asante our squad is different, different tactics, different head coach. We are bringing in overseas who will need time to settle in, hopefully they can hit the ground running and we can get them scoring. You should all this, So for me, Eustace;s job is see progress and develop on the pitch and finish mid table. Higher, great, but I don't want to be regelation battle either

That was the women team

If you offer me mid table(14th/15th) I would take it We need solid first choice keeper, back up left back, another centre midfielder, pacey winger, then add Weimann to us. I would love us to splashing the cash but we weren't in the situation, buying players like Thomas-Asante or Thomas Conway. Both It's Eustace's full season and I would take season of stability and let Eustace build on keeping us up last season

So what other kick offs time do you for other 2 days? The EFL and the club's wanted more money for TV so in order to achieve this more games on the telly.

Iversen's demands will drop as the window plays out otherwise he won't be playing first team football. Would have like Gent to stay here and be part of our squad but if wants to play first team football regular then can't blame him On Gallagher, good luck on his move. Been a decent player for us, work hard but never that proflic goalscorer we needed. Still need around another 5/6 in. Going to busy 30 days for us.

Gav, lets be honest the Burnley games were always going to be moved for TV coverage.

Been a busy few days at Rovers and I have looking forward to seeing Gueye and Yuki in a Rovers shirt. Its will interesting time to watch from the stands. McFadzean is back and I'm pleased cos he offered that experience we need. I wouldn't signed him and Batth as one is enough, I would have prefer a left footed centre back on loan or centre back who can play right back like James Hill. For me, We still a number of other signings like Keeper, left back, centre midfielder, winger with pace and Weinmann(who I would sign). If/When Szmodics does leave then we have decide how we replace him

Didn't Rovers say this that lower prices being offered in phase 1 would be offset by the Sky TV money increase? I'm not surprised to see Adult STH drop off this season. 3 adults who sat next to me barely came all season and probably made around 7 or 8 Championship games. Budgets are tight for lots of people and football won't be top of that list for many people. Also the team performance on the pitch has been problem plus the different phases. I would have prefer us to have the same prices all summer and none of these phases

@K-Hod I would just like to say thanks for all the time you give up personally to attend these meetings and asked the questions that we posted on here for yourself and others to asked at the Rovers Fans Forum. Please don't questioned your role cos you are doing the best you can in a different situation. Wouldn't he had to do a work placement as per of football directorship course? Of course he will know different contacts around the French and Belgium football. Wouldn't that be Park contact that found him and recommend him to us

We need a pacey left winger signing

No we need 5 centre backs cos we will play 5 at the backs in some games

Correct

You keep asking the same questions. Eustace has told yourself how he wants to player. I've made how the team is being set up, Jackson has. So what more do you want? I name you Briitain and Hedges who can cross a ball. Let's see who else we bring in. Welcome to Rovers Yuki. Another one I've looking forward to seeing play for us. Another interesting signing.

Reading the Fans Forum minutes Rovers still want a keeper and Winger. Eustace wanted to 4 areas of the team in keeper, centre back, number 9 and Winger either 7 or 11.

Nicko reported we want 2 centre backs with our McFadzean and Batth
