Since some people are suggesting what they would do. I will post what I have suggested I would do. I would sign 6 signings including 1 Right back, 1 centre back, 2 centre midfielders, 1 left winger and 1 strikers. Plus promote Right back James Brown, Centre defender Ash Phillips, Centre Midfielder Jake Garrett and striker Jack Vale into the first team squad. Also sort out whether Ben Brereton is staying and signing a new contract or being sold and we used some of the money to improve the squad like signing Right Back Callum Brittain from Barnsley who I feel would suit how I think JDT will want to play his full back. Some Centre midfielder suggestions Callum Styles from Barnsley, Massimo Luongo on a free transfer Plymouth midfielder Panutche Camara Conor Hourihane on a free transfer Han-Noah Massengo from Bristol City. 12 months left on his contract.

I think that's style suit this squad tbh and that including Dack.

I would be involved in the meetings around recruitment as I would as much insight into who were targeting and cost maybe has listening role mostly. I would appoint Sporting Director and Head coach to oversee the recruitment meetings and who we want. no chance. wages would be far too much out of our reach moved to Koln about 2 weeks ago

I think Crawley is the right opener for us and our strongest player for that. No idea what Rob Key has he hasn't made any public statement on him which is the right way to do. More important Test Captain Ben Stokes and Test head coach Brendan McCullum are backing him to succeed. Here is a link to his comments Brendon McCullum On Zak Crawley: 'When He Has His Day, He's Going To Win Matches' (wisden.com) always thinking negative and looking for problems that might not happen. same old thinking

Look at JDT's comments of how he wants us to play. We see a massive change starting at Stanley fixtures?

As Phili has said Jack Walker used to do it when he was the owner of our club. You will find some clubs like Spurs under Levy did it when Harry Redknapp or Mauricio Pochettino was there. Or Chelsea and Manchester United under Jose Mourinho. Simple question, if you were owner of a football club would you not be asking serious questions of your manager before authorising signings? in order to make sure it was the right deal for your club you own JDT and his staff are assessing the squad in Portugal before they make their moves in the transfer market. correct there. Given that it has been reported we only looking for 6 signings according to the LT. We need to make sure we get the right signings. This is exactly what JDT and GB have said they wanted to do in interviews before the training camp so I don't know why anyone expect signings in so early. Its clear what the plan was.

I think Leeds will come for Ben Brereton now and Maybe Collins will have be another target

thanks @goozburgerfor the Season Ticket number. I am hoping we can get over 9k season ticket holders for this coming season plus hopefully a sensible match day ticket price for the first of around 20 pounds for adults for most areas of the ground, then we can get around 15k on for JDT first game in charge

yes he did say that. I would imagine that Dack ahs been working on his fitness and training throughout the summer.

Roy Key has a great cricketing mind and so far his 3 appointments have been right. You didn't want Stokes as Captain as I did. What breath of fresh air he has been so far. Great appointment. Brendan McCullum as head coach has keep things very simple and focus more on the mindset then technique. Still want Crawley to be drop do you?

If you look at this statement from https://www.wba.co.uk/news/opening-home-fixture-moved-due-commonwealth-games-clash . It explained and they had to move 4 games. I've read the article on Rovers website thanks but you haven't seen that Wba had to move the first home game to Monday meaning every game has been push back 24 hours.

Correct that he said he spoken to one of the players about it. Seems a good buzz and excitement around JDT and his training sessions

Only repeating the conversations I had on Christmas eve with a couple of Burnley fans. You seems to be targeting young talent players from league 1 and City loans at the minute. Collins being linked 20 to 30 mil PL league move this evening

Callum Brittain James Bree Probably cos Vale is ahead of him. I would look for loan move for Sam Burns.

I seen a post on facebook from a couple of Rovers fans who have met JDT and some of the players. said the players are really enjoying the intense of the training, talks positive and they love his energy. says The players looks sharp and great team spirit and togetherness.

I would guess that some ST people have complained maybe on missing out or something. I don't know but if there is limited amount of tickets they want to give STH first option. Might be question for the fans forum to ask I remember going to Barrow away and they were loads of Rover fans there including me and my family. It was great day out.

Actually its the second home game. Its been moved cos WBA league cup game has been moved to Thursday evening meaning they had to move our game to Sunday.

Well it is true you can dispute all you want. Robinson improvement was there to see under Allardyce. He did have a massive problem diving to his left side in the final 18 months.

no guarantee in that. I know some fans wanted him out before Christmas/New year time. They felt his style of play and players needed a new voice.

Of course I look at people track record and what they have said in the past. one of the source is a friend of mine, that isn't the case Big fan of playing Poker.

for the first 2 season under Bobby Mimms he actually improved

Look at the improve of Paul Robinson under Bobby Mimms here. Brad Friedel leaving here did not result in relegation

no

Waggott and Mowbray. JDT wasn't here then and is the head coach here and Gregg Broughton wasn't here then who will deal with the contracts now instead of Waggott
