Nicko has suggested it on X(twitter) I don't know that JDT will leave Rovers in the summer but he still has 18 months on his contracts and I hope he stays here. Even if he does leave I would expect Rovers will look to appoint a head coach who will play a similar style of play to JDT. We need signings in this window and mostly these should not short term signings but players who will add quality and depth to the squad for next season and season after

Its about bringing players just not for this season but beyond. If we £5m from that Raya deal. That's gives you £5m to spend which would give you the chance to bring few signings For example Rajovic for £3m from Watford O'Riordan for 500k from Crewe Blackett-Taylor for 500k from Charlton Cresswell on loan to buy in the summer from Leeds Julian Niehues on a pre contract for next season

You are spot on that the BBD contract should have been sort before GB came in. Mowbray and Waggott should have sorted it 2 years before his contracts ended true but we should be selling players before we leave it when the players have only 12 months left on their contract

I believe we could advance the Raya Transfer money to this window and not the summer. We would get slightly less But I would be tempted to do if we could bring in new signings to give us some depth and quality

I would deffo take Campbell from Stoke,

Surely that is on JDT for given Ben Benson the job when he could do it himself or appoint someone like Damien Johnson or Mike Sheron to do it Will Still is the Reims manager.

JDT did bring his own assistant and fitness coach. Remy and Rosen who he knows and worked with before, but he was happy to work his existing staff as its give his opinions on the players Mowbray did bring in his own number 2 and he was very happy with Benson's work that why he got a new contract when we went down. Benson was given the GK coach temporaray when Mowbray came in as we got rid of Owen Coyle, Assistant manager Sandy Stewart, first team coach John Henry and goalkeeping coach Phil Hughes I am sure if JDT wanted to bring in more of his own staff then he would.

I agree we need a new CEO with background in commercial operation growth here but that's down to the owners to bring that in. We have to disagree cos I think we have a good footballing structure and GB is doing a good overall job but we need a budget to bring in what we need. Yes I do think we will bring 3 or 4 signings before the deadline day. Yes I do always look at life in 'positive mindset' and I always look at the glass half full not half empty. Its mindset that has served me well to get the best I want and have in life.

Harry Brook to head home from England's Test tour of India with immediate effect (msn.com) disappointed news

isn't there an Ennis Bolton story?

He did adapt our formation yesterday by playing 3-5-2 formation. Did you not see that? Leonard was just doing his warm down before the game ends

You would be very surprised who I know at Rovers. So you going to name these staff members? are the Staff related to non football staff or staff who are involved in Football setup? Doesn't he have 3 Rovers related stories today?

Brilliant night watching Sarah Millican and very enjoyable event. which other director of football gives interviews during a transfer window? Please could you answer this simple question No the whole set up isn't garbage but its how a modern day football set up with DoF and Head coach set up. Most teams at PL and Championship level have that set up. No, what our situation requires is some new signings to given quality to the squad and depth of the squad.

the same old rant about our coaching staff, the footballing structure at the club, etc. The same old criticism of GB and recruitment team. You act like its so easy without any sort of answers to how you would better. Carter fell awkwardly so how is that fault of our medical or fitness team?

exactly. We are got most players on long term contracts which is big advantage for us. Benson shouldn't be in charge of set pieces. His focus should be working with the keepers and helping them developed. He praised by Kaminski as been a good keeper coach. Going to name who these staff members are?

Looks decent. Agreed with your son's comments

If you don't like my posts just ignore them. I have posted my concerns about the club itself but I don't it in the match threads. Anyway, I'm off to watch Sarah Millican at King's George Hall in Blackburn. Enjoy your night people

I always look at everything positive. Let's me

Mercer, If you disagree fine but I believe we will bring in at least 3. If you don't, fine I ain't bothered tbh. In the long term yes we need new owners and new CEO. I'm happy with our Footballing management structure and coaching staff. but short term we need new signings. Simple as.

Overall it was poor performance but its point on the board. Surprised he changed formation but its was good start. Good finish by Wharton. After Carter went off our performance dropped off. Second half we dominated the ball but couldn't created the golden chance we need. When JRC and Sigurdsson came on I expected us to 4-2-3-1 formation but we didn't. Guess JDT wanted to stay with 3 at the back. I did think JRC was to score with 2 minutes to score.. Pears did very well and Hyam look better today. What this team is some new signings before the deadline ends. What this team needs is some new signings not changing our footballing structure or JDT as head coach

We need centre back, right winger and striker at least before the transfer window ends Is this the same player that has asked to leave twice in 6 months cos he not happy about his playing position and game time?

oh well, from a good source then. JDT did his press conference about 1pm and said Szmodics back in squad

where? JDT confirmed this afternoon that Szmodics is back in the squad and I am looking forward to him scoring tomorrow

He has input into signings and whether we sign them or not. He probably fed up keep repeating the same old comments week in week out confirmed by who? I've not seen any stories related to this sort of comments Morton played alot last season cos JDT picked him cos he did what he wanted for the team. Nothing to do with BS about having to play so many games or minutes
