You can dispute all the fees you want Mercer. Morishita fee was reported as £2m from the Polish journalist. Tavares fee is up to £2m based on Alan Nixon The 5m budget for transfer come from Kidder Noise podcast where it is discussed as part of fans forum minutes. Questions were asked also about increase that budget from players sales with some of it being available to spent, I think that what we are seeing and they are backing Gestede and Ismael more this summer than last season.

Nixon has said we have been talking to Lorient for a few days for that striker

aren't we spending money this window? £7.5m spent and possible more so. This summer we seem to back Ismael with money but also permanent signings. Gestede, Owen and Ismael are all aligned and thinking the same way but they appears to be allowing to spend more money than we have done since the Mowbray spending on BBD and Armstrong

Is the current squad, really paper thin, if we sign another striker and midfielder, but Buckley, Travis, Pears and Leonard leave? we have 2 players or more for each position so is that paper thin? I would still like another keeper in with some experience to give Toth and Michalski competition for the number 1 and 2 jersey

Yes you find things or situations that only come out after they left, like Eustace over the Derby's approach or the fact he lied to the Rovers fans. You might be comfortable with that but I ain't. I like Ismael cos he told the supporters about the Brittain and Travis the truth, you might see it as throwing Travis under the bus but I don't think he ever did, he told the truth and as supporters that all you asked for. For some unknown reason, he don't agree and think supporters shouldn't be told the truth Buckley, Leonard and Pears are all on the wage bill and we need to move on them otherwise we are going to either bring them in the fold or stick them in under 23's whilst still paying them. Also I think Rovers higher management/owners are allowing Gestede, Owen and Ismael to spend more than the original budget was. It was suggested the original budget was £5m but so far we spend around £7.5m with more set to spend. Yes they will be outgoing so more cash will be generate by the Travis sale, Buckley sale and possible others.

I do think that the ref should have stuck with original decision with that Gordon's tackle. When you slow it down, the tackle looks worst and worst. I think Gordon does try to pull out but his momentum takes into van Dijk .

I think Ismael with be here in a year unless we are near relegation zone which I don't us being. But the most important thing is winning games. He seems to be very clear tactical what he wants. Norwich will be another testing game

Derby were 21st when Eustace was appointed and they finished 19th. is that more impressive that what Selles did when he took over Hull who were 24th and he kept them up and finished 21st and was sacked. Derby fans don't seem impressive from what Rovers fans are retweeted on twitter from them about Eustace, Batth, Sanderson, etc. I haven't seen their games to comment or the goals they have conceded apart from Last Friday game when Batth defending was pathetic from him Of course I don't like the way he lied to the Rovers supporters after Wolves game about Derby approach and when he knew about it and that will always play a part in my opinion of him. He admitted he knew on Friday about the approach in his unveiling at Derby. Rovers should have handled it better and not allow him to be in charge of that Wolves game. We should have put him on gardening leave and if I was the CEO/owner of Rovers that exactly what I would have done. I based it results and I am encouraged by Saturday result and performance plus looking forward to our latest 2 signings playing for us. Lets see who else we sign in the next 7 days. On which one I prefer, that depends on results. If I had to pick one right now to appoint it will be Ismael based on his straight talking and being honest about the Brittain and Travis situation. But like with our head coaches is all results and winning games.

No I don't agree Ismael is a downgraded on Eustace. Ismael has a playoff place on his CV, Eustace doesn't. I have explained the sack thing more than bloody now, FFS, move on RF99. No I told I will judge Ismael on results, performances and how we playing not on gut feeling. Yes I liked Eustace but some things around his move to Derby I didn't like which we only found out after he told the media when appointed as Derby head coach has annoyed me about and tarnish his reputation with me So you think Eustace is a better head coach than Ismael and what if true based on?

What a great game for a neutral. Newcastle were the better team overall but Liverpool were lucky but we good goals.

well done Newcastle. They deserved at least a point

I don't see as massive holes cos we don't know how well these new signings will play and that will be judge as the season goes on. Not at all, we don't whether we have signed quality replacements for those who have left or will left. Also you need to factor in that we are playing differently tactical. Losing both is a hole but we need to see how good Alebiosu and Tavares/Baradji will be at replacing them. Alebiosu was impressive on Saturday and Tavares we seen something to work with. Looking forward to seeing Baradji play after the international break Yes I have read Ismael's comments over Travis from the post match Hull game about being let down, so clearly something has happened there, what we don't know but I am surprised Travis move to Derby hasn't been confirm yet Yes Batth was very good last season, but would he this season, I don't know, Derby fans don't seem happy with him. On Weimann, Squad player who nick a few goals a season Surely that needs to judge over a season? Well Eustace isn't showing that. Both will be judge on results. Cantwell looks much fitter but also given him the captain armband seems to upped his performance.

spot on. The way Ismael big up Baradji in an article on Rovers yesterday suggested that he sees Baradji has a key signing for hiw he wants to play here with his midfield. agreed 100% Widzew Lodz are lower mid table team. If he has the chance of coming here, then he will. Know nothing about him, so can't comment on this player but encouraging we looking to spend and to sign a striker

Brilliant first half so far.

Nixon just link us with this striker. Said we were in France watching him this weekend this

Exactly he has. His YouTube video shows what that he attacking wide player. Can play on either side. More options and versatile..

do these big holes still here or have our signings fill there? have we miss either Batth or Weimann? All depends who these clubs were. We don't know but Ismael will. I looking forward to seeing Baradji playing and the type of player he is

Nixon is saying Ryoyo Morishita, midfielder and forward. Possible Hyam's replacement if he does go at centre back

Ismael is bigging up Baradji here https://x.com/Rovers/status/1959923708681916629 Wonder if we can expect an announcement today on Ryoya Morishita signing here today

He played as a winger last season

Zettesrom has been linked with Brentford

I go for championship experience centre back myself I can see him going there. Eustace always stuck with him Leonard hasn't had a loan
