I will respectful to him as I am to anyone but I do have plenty of questions lined up on a range of topics No I don't need your questions thanks.

late afternoon

who says we can't afford wages for established players or keep players like Lenihan or Nyambe? But you got to accept we have a wage structure and we won't break it. In my opinion that is right that no one player is bigger than the club and we shouldn't be over paying wage wise anyone. Has Nyambe gone anywhere yet? clearly not rated as highly by other clubs as some people do on here. We offered Lenihan a good contract offer but he reject the offers. Good luck to him there. Maybe he will sign that new contract here then thanks for sharing

I wouldn't want any of them. Mousett isn't good enough for us. Other 2 I would say no. Decent enough but want better. Someone like Lockyer from Luton is the right age at 27 and experience to be our number 1 centre back PL scouts would have watched him developing through the age ranks so it was going to hard to keep interest low in him. exactly. Someone like Man Utd or Spurs or Chelsea can offer him double figure weekly wage at his age plus a big signing on fee. I just hope he doesn't up like Callum Wright who joined Leicester and his career has progress aswell I think it would if he had stayed here. Just hope he re-sign here and the big clubs will stay be there if he continue to path here i developing and playing in the first team here.

It will be success if people actually give it time and patience and don't start judging over a short 5 weeks period but over the long term and improvements going on at the club with all departments under his control. Yes we need some transfers in but only around 5 or 6 signings. I'm sure they will happening in the coming days, weeks before the deadlines ends. Alot more clubs need more signings then us and some of those don't have Category 1 status Academy producing players of first team quality. I disagree we are well behind where we need to be right now.

great news and Rovers Academy is one of the best in the country and regular producing first team players for the head coach over the last 5 years.

Ben Stokes is to retire from ODI after 1st ODI against South Africa. Harry Brook should replace him, Parkinson needs to replace Rashid and I would bring in Ben Duckett for Jason Roy. I would also look replacing Ali also over the 12 months.

Story came out yesterday. LT always day or 2 behind the news.

Ash Phillips hasn't sign a professional contract. Same with Jake Butty https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/20285417.ash-phillips-yet-sign-professional-blackburn-rovers-contract/ It explains why he hasn't sign once yet

Mark Venus was director of football for the past few seasons just not confirmed by club but Waggott and Mowbray confirmed he was in this role.

Broughton or Waggott don't need to communicate right now. Broughton focus should be on bringing players and staff in. Not speaking to the media. Waggott should talk only about non playing activities and after we know the final ST sales. His words were something like a healthy budget compare to clubs without parachute payments 4 million for championship club with no parachute payments is alot unless you sell 1 key player for alot of money and reinvest some of the money on signing. would be quality signing and good investment for the club Well its appears we did bid for him and Venkys was backing JDT for this transfer according to Alan Nixon which is about 40 to 60 k then

O'Hare isn't a wide player but more of a number 10 player. You already have Scott Twine for that spot. I don't think its close at all given Mark Robins comments and maybe Kompany need to learn about speaking about other players at other clubs with respect and not tapping them up. Cornet will go for sure. McNeil most likely also

i'm not sure you get O'Hare tbh given Mark Robins comments You want a keeper from Belgium don't you?

Isn't Tommy Smith on trial at Boro?

Didn't Rovers start the work on the pitch after this event and want the pitch to be good condition for the 1st home game. I know Rovers are having open training day on it Monday 25th July I would never suggest that

Yes I remember that interview and its was basically calling out people. and the transfer window isn't close yet. We need 5 or 6 signings but we need to make sure these are the right signings and we get the players we want no surprised he going there now.

that was 2 months ago wasn't it? the recent event which the pitch was going for was moved at the last minute

I don't know what JDT would have wanted myself. We see next summer having mats and prams on the pitch?

I think Its was about 16 months ago when Mowbray press conference post Reading game was very strange and hinting that he was going to be replace by a change of manager with a different style. Then several different posters on here were hearing reports/rumours that Mowbray would be replace

when did Waggott backstabbed Mowbray? Didn't the Armstrong money go to meet last season debt? Not sure if he messed up the recruitment of our head coach? Rothwell was always leaving IMO. Not a fan of Nyambe and given he hasn't got a club yet would suggest maybe he not has good as you think he is. Lenihan, disappointed he didn't sign again but good luck to him there

Its does work well at number of clubs whether its Liverpool, Huddersfield or Norwich of 3 examples of this structure working. Well if that's your worry fine but I don't have that worry.

I think the 2 training camps away have been good for JDT and he has got to know the squad very quickly and what under 21's options there is at the club. Yes he a couple of home games might have been good. But When the world cup meaning a shorter summer break and winter break means less pre season time. Plus the pitch needing work doing it.

Gregg Broughton shouldn't need to give an update or interview at this stage of the transfer window/stage of the window. His focus should be signings players, appointing staff to the recruitment and medical teams at the club. No my comments was right and not patronising in any way, but people need to understand how the Director of football/head coach structure and actually give it time to work and develop here. People shouldn't be looking for weekly transfer update from Gregg Broughton. Just let them get on with the job and judge after the transfer window ends. Exactly. Gregg Broughton appointed Jon Dahl Tomasson. So far I think its been a good appointment. Just need some quality signings now. Well didn't Waggott update us on Nyambe?

blimey I tweet Sharpe once about Gus Williams coming in and Nicko once asking if Rovers might be interest in Rhys Williams on loan. That it for over a week. What I want is to make the right signings when we make them I don't understand how things then why do you explain it all then? You clearly don't understand how the Director of Football/head coach structure works. Its works in English football.
