Do we actually know our budget? Gestede has said similar as this season and Ismael has said about getting signings in early and in time for pre season camp in Spurs You just answered your question there

I expect us to sign a new keeper, centre defender, centre midfielder, 2 right wingers and striker. Expect Pears, JRC and Buckley to move on this summer

I'm yet to listen to the podcast but will listen tonight

I dont understand how anyone cannot rated Ohashi as striker

No. I would put him as one of our highest wage earner unless he wont stay

Well done to Gary Bowyer at Burton

To me, it's a lunch event with corporate clients. The players would have lunch at Brochall anyway. So hence why I see it non story. Also just for record, I respect your opinion even if I disagree with it

Dolan and his agent will see what offers he is getting and make the decision based on what they want. I said previously I would offered him 15k a week

Ohashi isn't the type of forward who hold the ball like Gueye but he makes clever runs and wants to run in behind the defence. Plus press from the front. I would keep Gueye cos sometimes you might want to start him in Target man type role or has Plan B

I don't see what the problem is here, Tuesday training took place as normal and this was afternoon event when the players would be going home and not at Brockhall anyway. This is non story

You can keep the same card and its no cost. I went for the digital option is it the most logically and easily option for myself

That what Elliott said on the podcast

WBA want him. Good by QPR placing him on gardening leave and what we should have done with Eustace before his Derby move

Gestede said this to Elliott Jackson in his interview Rovers will also look to sign younger players and maximise their Academy, to build sellable assets. That was part of the discussion when appointing Valerien Ismael and a value Blackburn want to return to. "You have to rely on the Academy also, Adam Wharton is an example. He is a rare one but you can do business with the Academy with player-trading," he explained. "What we have seen in the last year, the minutes played by our Academy players has dropped drastically. We used to be over 2,000 minutes for Under-23 Academy players. Last 12 months, 142 minutes. That affects the value of the asset and we want to go back to that model. That was part of the discussions with Valerien. They have to be part of your squad planning." Just the same twaddle from going on about this and that about my opinion or having no critical faculty. You are in no position to talk when you couldn't even the most basic question so I take zero lectures from you! I dont need to give any reasons cos it's your issue with how football clubs(not just Rovers but in wider football) choose their head coach and why they have.

Tronstad, Travis, Brittain, Hyam, Batth and Ohashi

Elliott Jackson on his LT podcast says Rovers have offered a new contract and they will make a final contract offer to him shortly. Says Dolan won't make any decision to after he's been on holiday. Also says Ismael have said if its about money he will go elsewhere if not it's about being part of team, being key player and enjoying his football then he might stay.

From listening to Elliott Jackson's LT podcast that Rovers will offer Forshaw a new contract and Ismael wants to keep him

pathetic from yourself. Can't be assed to answered questions but you loved asking them tho. If you aren't prepared to answer then what the point of replying to them. You made a series of points but it appears you actually haven't listened properly like Eddie suggests regarding your point about the Brittain point. On the young players minutes point, in the Gestede's interview with Jackson he says he wants us to restart bringing through our young players but doesn't set a target but he says how minutes they played under JDT compare to Eustace. Its yourself you has a massive problem and issues how the people higher than the head coach are selecting who their head coach is based on different factors whether its style of play or people who will develop young players or fit the group of players they have at their club. That's your issue with it how clubs are run.

we have offered him a new contract but Dolan wants to test the market and see what out there. That's his decision but he has performed for us this season so why can't say he hasn't put a shift him, I hope he stays but if he doesn't I wish him well in the future

what about Sunderland head coach Régis Le Bris or Bristol City head coach Liam Manning or Portsmouth head coach John Moushino ?

You tell me Kent given you want to imply these assumptions? in the players salaries being paid? or overall at the club? No, cos we seen the playing squad changed over the last 5 seasons and we don't know what's in the players contract has some contract could have wage rise in them for each season. We don't know what in the contract do we If he is going Derby then its become of his close bond and relationship with Eustace not money. As I said the other day I would let JRC go as I don't see a place for him in the squad and he isn't a right back for me and Buckley has to moved on to fulfil his potential(some of it at least). You can only make that decision or judgement after the summer transfer window has finish not now

Have you not actually misunderstood here? Did Gestede say he was involved in that decision or was he actually referring to Ismael making that call with the help of our Andrew Proctor and data analysis? Did Gestede actually set a target or did he actually mentioned the amount of minutes our young players played under JDT compare to Eustace, and the club wants to go back to actually develop and bring through our young players? Has Ismael felt obliged to play younger players or has he given Kris Montgomery his chance cos he felt he was ready to play? Care to actually expand on what you mean and I might be able to answer? Is not on Tomasson unwilling to change his style just like Mowbray didn't change from his false 9 formation when it stop working and results went downhill The people higher than the head coach are selecting who their head coach is based on different factors whether its style of play or people who will develop young players or fit the group of players they have at their club. Why do I have to tell you that its positive when its yourself who seems to massive problems with the things above not myself, so maybe you need to answer your own questions why you do?
