well thats your opinion but in my opinion Buckley was our one of our best player in the game including the first half.

Buckley was our best starting 11 player at Blackpool away game. Not sure Burns is ready to throw into the starting 11 right now. Plus I want to Butterworth start ahead of Burns for this game

Well not really. They haven't been given alot of game time yet but that will come. I picked Edun on his Blackpool performance and I would to play the same team that played so well second half at Blackpool. If Brereton was available to play from the start he would be starting in place of Butterworth.

From what I have read about the takeover that Saudis are taking actively involved in running the club and the Club non chairman is expecting to be there for the first game according to SSN. No one is Conte or Zidane going there. They appoint someone like Lampard. from what I have read about the new owners plans there is they want to appoint an experience CEO, Sporting Director and head coach. Plus transfer wise they won't spend stupidly in January and I expected they will buy younger players who will develop and get better in time. Plus the owners need to invest in the Stadium and training ground which need improvement and redevelopment. Why would PL and UEFA stop their owners investing in the club along as the meet the Profit and sustainability rules? We have 2 Newcastle fans at work and they don't give a toss about the political side of this. They seem it getting rid of Ashley and new owners are here. Look like Frank Lampard is someone that the new owners are speaking too and he could even be appoint before Sunday game from what I read online. Whether its happens we will see. They got a new CEO, Sporting Director and Head coach to appoint now they bought the club.

lets hope you are Very much like Paul Dickov or Jamie Vardy type. and thats was my first opinion when I watched him for the first time for the under 16's There is very few target man strikers around at the minute

great shame for the PNE club and fans. I don't know if the Hemmings family are big football fans or not but I hope they keep ownership of the club

My team. My bench would be Pears, Carter, Johnson, Clarkson, Khadra, Poveda, Burns

I think last season he shown more than glimpses and I said this summer that I thought he would replace Armstrong goals and set up to the plate and score goals. So far he has done this and done excellent so far. on his first 2 seasons he wasn't given enough game time here and used has a sub player. Well when we signed him I was happy with him cos from what Ive seen of him thought we signed a talent player. I can see him going to Spanish or Portuguese club tbh this summer if he continue his performances and keep scoring. I don't see him here next season unless he gets a long term injury.

Yes players like Rothwell, Nyambe and Lenihan have been offered new improved contracts by club as we were told a couple of weeks ago. But if they want to move on and look for better contract or move to new club then we can't stop them. With the Championship money tree ending at most clubs now and the vast of majority of championship club cutting back on their wage bill now. Its a risky strategy for them. If they want to sign new contracts here great and I would be happy about but if they only want to chase the money tree or want a new challenge at new club then good luck to them in the future, But I would hope that if we are going to sell any of these out of contract players like Lenihan, Nyambe, Rothwell, Davenport then our chief of Recruitment and his recruitment team have players being scouted right now and we have lined up players we will sign when or if they go. I know who I would look at to replace Lenihan and Nyambe with. But going back to Brereton is I don't see him here next season unless he picks up serious long term injury. If we can get 15 million pounds this summer then I expected we would accept that and invest some of them towards signings and some of it towards the budget and offsetting the club season losses.

I've only seen Rangers interested in Rothwell but not seen other clubs linked/interested in Nyambe or Lenihan. Have I missed that? Yes they might be easier to do in your mind but they still need the club to be attractive to them by offering them the opportunity to play and develop as a player. Lenihan and Rothwell are mid/late 20 and I would expect them to want to explore their options and thats what they are doing. If they aren't willing to commit to the club then we need to sell them in January and bring in replacements that want to be here

I deffo don't agreed cos his performances this season have been very good and he is scoring goals. Similar form to Armstrong in the previous 18 months. Yes he scored a good goal this morning for Chile but he is performing well for his nation team. He has been improving for the past 14 months before this season and will continue to do so. I expected we will received 12 to 15 million pounds for him this summer and I expected we accept the bid and reinvested it in the squad. We are allowed to make 39 million pounds losses over 3 seasons and I haven't seen a change to this rule and regulation. Has this change recently? I agree on players have to sold if those players won't sign new contracts in January. Those players are Rothwell, Lenihan and Nyambe. Yes we have to keep the wage bill down but we should be looking at players with 6 months left on their contracts and signing them in January like John Souttar who I see was linked with us yesterday and I think Rovers are looking for Lenihan replacement already.

Dolan and Buckley are key players to the team this season and deserved their new contracts. Dolan has been outstanding since joining the club and will only get better as time goes on. I would be looking at new 5 years contract already for him. and to be honest the same for Buckley who I think so far has shown his quality to the team again this season

IMO, plenty would have argued against a new contract for him before this season or even last season. But we have been in talks with him for a while over a new contract. I have always been a fan of him and thought he would make it here and produced the goals he should here. Shame its come 3 years in but thats it. It would be something his agent would ask for if if any new deal imo.

I agree he has been one of best performing players since the first lockdown. I agree he is unlikely to be here next season Did we lose Armstrong for cut price really given we got between 15 to 18 Million pounds. I heard similar arguments when we sold Gestede to Villa for 6 million we sold him cheap despite that being the higher bid we received and he wanted out. really Rigger? 10 goals this season in the championship already for Rovers and he is Chilean International and scoring goals for them. Suggest you look again there at that post Mercer, you are ignoring his form from when the season resume after the first lockdown and then last season where he was good form of performing and scoring. I expected he will be gone by this summer 2022 to a PL club or La Liga club given his form and how he is performing this season for Rovers and Chile.

No he is represented by Wasserman. The same agency as Bradley Dack and Bradley Johnson. Agreed there. 3 years contract with wages same as Dack and 15 million pounds release clause in the deal. Seems a fair deal

In the last few months? Buckley, Dolan, Carter and Wharton were given new contracts. Given that 2 of those players are key players/assests for the club this season and beyond. Well if he wants explore his options what can the club do. I hope we can get him on a long term contract with 15 to 20 million pounds release clause in the contract

If you mean the arrangement fee for paying monthly for your season ticket. If correct it was £36.71 at the start of the season

He's has 18 months left on his contract technically.. Would anyone have give him a new contract 6 months ago? Very few of us I guess

Delighted for Brereton Diaz scoring again for Chile. Let's hope so. We have club 12 months contract option. So that's will ensure we get 15 million pounds plus for him. If we could get him on long term contract we would be delighted for him

Doesn't matter who we sign but any embargo means no cash buys or loan fees for us. Alot of players who were out of contract last summer wouldn't have improve our squad. Plus just look at the Embargo at Derby and who they signed there. Waggott explained what happened earlier on in the summer so unless you can prove otherwise then we go with what we know. I was talking in terms of transfers fees and finding bargains out there like Edun or Kaminski in the first place That's contract extensions were unique situation for Rovers. We moved on from there now. We were more financially and footballing sensible this summer like cutting the deadwood here

Maglorie will be released at the end of the season in my opinion. not good enough. I think Souttar transfer would makes sense and on a free would be excellent piece of business. Imagine Park and his staff are the one looking at Souttar and alot of players currently with us possibly having to rebuild the squad this summer coming,

fair enough. The money would be going to Rovers and helping the finances of the club not Waggott in all fairness if it wasn't going to the East Lancs Hospice

well given that Lenihan is out of contract in the summer I would see Souttar as a direct replacement for Lenihan. Plus given that Ayala only has a year left on his contract aswell.

Don't believe Jim was being that way in the first place

Fair.enough..Whilst I understand your frustration about not getting your money as some of people I go attend with had similar problem with no streaming facilities. Im no fan of streaming football at all.. But they have gone this season as season ticket holders as they missed live football and Rovers cos of the pandemic.. Is that the only reason for not attending Ewood Park games or all games? And do you not missed attending Rovers games? Ok. Do you support them as a second team? Do you feel the same connection to them as Rovers?
