of course it relevant how transfer fees are paid to us. The Wharton and Raya money is spent for me to cover the season debt of £20m. So that gone In my opinion. Where is this info from we only spent £1m for Gueye and nominal fee for Yuki Ohashi? even if De Lange signs this week, Eustace ain't going to start him against Derby. Its 3 days of training until Game day. Of Course we want to get it done and get him in as soon as possible.

The Raya money is being paid in instalments when Brentford receive the money from Arsenal in instalments we get our money. Haven't we spend what we receive for Gallagher and Wahlstedt on Yuki and Gueye signings? Szmodics deal is close to agreement and it appears there is disagreement over 500k according to Nicko comments

Fully understand that point and my mate who is die hard Blackpool Fan said he won't be going to Crawley on Saturday cos of kick off time and travel there and back. He will be watching at home. He is already annoyed by the Blackpool season ticket price and lack of signings this summer

very true. The WATR is there to represent its membership.

Thanks for update @Mike Grahamand @Miller11

Who says it not likely we sign De Lange? who says we will sign a veteran keeper? De Lange deal will get done hopefully by weekend. It's a negotiation. Unlikely to be in for the Derby game.

?

I think Dolan suited that pressing 10 role tbh and we need to secure his future here long term. I would be offering him 15k a week on 4 year contract. I agree. Szmodics must be close to be being done. He wasn't at training given comments on here. De Lange will get done this week. then just need us needing another 3/4 signings to get done. Mercer has said its not him.

I will be there supporting Rovers on Friday evening where the only thing that matters is winning and getting off to a good start. I believe the trust have done the right thing by meeting with Suhail on Friday and asking him questions. I understand that the meeting was very last minute and that they have to tell their board first and then publish the minutes to members when time allows. I fully understand that board members have other things to do over a weekend given that people have commitments outside of being a board member. I look forward to seeing the minutes and what was said and what I want to asked the We Are The Rovers board members. Look at the We Are The Rovers website. We Are THE Rovers (roverstrust.com)

Every EFL game is available to watch on Sky this weekend. It will be very interesting weekend to see what teams starts well.

England batsman Graham Thorpe has passed away today aged 55. Thanks for all the great memories you gave us like your inning in Pakistan in 2000 to win the series in the dark or your top score in New Zealand which was great inning. RIP Graham Thorpe 🏏

Nicko hasn't said we are back in for him in his post. Just said Charlton are struggling to meet his demands.

thanks for that. I was totally unaware of that.

The side of football fans don't see. Brilliant from Sam Gallagher

Thanks for your comments Miller and I look forward to hearing about the Suhail Meeting more in the future

Looking forward to the start of the season in 5 days time. I see Luton, Leeds United and Sheffield United as the 3 teams to beat. I don't know how Parker is getting at Burnley in pre season or what changes he has done so far. maybe @longsiders1882could tell what changes Parker has done to the tactics or what staff he has brought in? Think Boro and Sheffield Wednesday have made some smart signings. WBA might struggle this season with this EFL restrictions in place. Think Portsmouth will be the best of the promoted teams and with Bishop up front, they will score goals. Surprised that Hull haven't spend some of that money they have brought in. I suspect it will be wide open this season. I was talking to few PNE fans at work and they aren't happy that Lowe is still in charge. They wanted a change of management there. They have renewed their ST for this season but that's down to price.

Its clearly, Eustace is pushing for this Baker deal, just like he pushed for experience signings and got them. Eustace highlighted four areas he wanted to strengthen and what type of players we wanted. Plus some experience signings. I agreed I'm not over keen on swapping Travis for Baker tbh. I can see the merit of Baker coming here but I'm not sure about swapping him for Baker

ok, keep your pants on Eustace must want Baker but if Stoke let Baker then they want Travis hence we there is talk of swap deal. Yes it would leave us needed a centre midfielder player signing probably a loan from PL club.

I hope we get the De Lange deal done early this week. Feels like another step in the right direction

looks that way

JDT told you the truth but you won't accept it or back up to Dolan JDT sanction the move for Travis who also asked for move last season over his playing position. Travis wants to play as the defensive midfielder.

JDT and GB both said this in their interviews about Travis departure you seems to be looking for something that isn't there

Travis wanted out due to his playing time and his role in the team. Him and JDT had a falling out and Travis left Rovers in January cos of this Eustace wants Baker in but Stoke are interest in Travis if they lost Baker so Eustace has a decision to make. How badly does he want Baker and is he willing to lose Travis to get Baker in

1. Winners of the Championship Luton Town 2. Runners-up in the Championship Leeds 3. Championship Play-off final winners Sheffield United 4. Where will Rovers finish the season? 13th 5. Which 3 clubs will be relegated from the Championship? Oxford United, Derby County, Swansea 6. Who will be the first club in the Championship to change manager? (For whatever reason) PNE 7. Who will be the BRFCS Player of the Season? (As voted for in the Match Centre on BRFCS) Ty Dolan 8. A wildcard prediction for something (possibly quite mad) that will happen to or at Rovers during this coming season We will beat Dingles

I won't bet with other people on here
