Its every time someone leaves you think they is conspiracy theory behind it and you failed to accept that Barr left for Salford for the assistant manager job. Just like when Karl Robinson left Allardyce coaching staff to be Ince's number 2 at MK Dons. Depends what Copper's family reasons are and instead of keep not believing them why not just accept his reasons for once We have been over this with you for a number of times. We need a permanent signing for that position and we signed a very talent player in Harry Pickering who will prove his worth over the coming seasons. Cos teams aren't willing to meet our valuation price of Armstrong. can you please answer these 2 questions? 1. if we haven't had signed Pickering who would have played left back in the Swansea game? or who would you have signed this summer for the left back? kept Bell or Douglas? 2. Would you have sold Armstrong for 8 million pounds when Southampton bid that for that? replacement for Kane at Spurs What are these wages compare to turnover then compare to us? Barnsley recruitment is very impressive and thats what we need at Rovers. It won't happen under Venkys, Waggott, Mowbray and Venus

thanks for that. Haven't seen his comments on there Proves it not only happening at Rovers but to alot of clubs

2.5 million pounds for Sam Surridge is cheap. He is a talent player and could be mould of course be the next Adam Armstrong. He can score goals. I agree that O'Neill has signed 2 good players with selling a key player but he has cut the wage bill massively there since he jon Stoke. Campbell is excellent player

And it's never amazed myself how quick you jump to a conspiracy theory about everything. Barr left for promotion job wise. His Rovers salary was near 1.5k a week here. Chris Rush left for family reasons I'm.sure Simon Copper will lay out his reasons for leaving.

My team would be Kaminski Nyambe Lenihan Carter Pickering Travis Buckley Rothwell Dolan Armstrong Brereton Rovers to win 2 nil. Brereton and Dolan to score

Stoke set to sign Sam Surridge from Bournemouth. Another possible replacement for Armstrong gone now

Boro set to appoint a Sporting Director above Neil Warnock

I've renewed.

Barr got a promotion to be number 2 at Salford. Chris Rush walk away for family reasons. Simon Cooper move to Stoke is a strange one but better wages there. You been predicting administration for years now and everytime you been wrong. You been saying Alex Neil was coming here 7 months now but still Mowbray is here. Why not just admit you got it wrong?

Yes we one or 2 experience players bit yet again it will come down to wages and length of contract. Haven't we been over this enough? Plus Phili has explained aswell. What money do you want? I agree. Players like JRC, Brereton, Dolan, Buckley, etc. Think we have enough good young talent players to play some good football and win games

Abit like your Alex Neil 7 months long linking to the Rovers which still he hasn't got appointed. Look like you and your family member were WRONG. Another one of regular posts that never comes true. Similar to Rhodes to Bolton story or your mate Wee Dougie signing him. Or Rovers reaching a tipping point as you mention so many times I lost count. Maybe you should apply for the Ben Sheppard show since you are such a fan of tipping points. Another Alex Neil story from you but yet again as you do you move the goal posts as always. Thought he would be appointed by now. What happened to that one?

Good to hear that they is a number of Rovers fans there renewing and buying a season ticket today.

We signed Lawrence and Barrow on loan with Guthrie, Akpan, Delfouneso, Keita, Pethsi perm Mowbray has been financially backed for 3 seasons straight in terms of over 20 million pounds plus huge wages on loans and free transfers He should have paid with his job for sanctioning that transfer Definably no sleeping but plenty of shouting, passion and enthusiasm from me if I was on the touchline. We need a manager with the same characterises as that

I look at Brentford and Swansea who both used 4-3-3 and 3-4-3/3-5-2 formations at different times last season. Tho I understand what you have posted and I agree to a point. I think at times away from home we need to solid and defensive tight at the back which I think a back 5 would work especially when Wharton is back in the team.

But you still haven't the simple question who would be our left back this season if we hasn't signed Harry Pickering? Phili has explained the Pickering transfer and why it was sanction. We should be looking to good young talent to sign whether it championship or League 1 or 2. Its looks to me that the owners won't authorised any incomings until Armstrong is sold. Mowbray couldn't even get Reach into the club. You only need to watch the Salford City FC documentary the Class of 92 to see they are willing to over pay to get who and what they want. Salford City had a ambition plan to get the PL within a number of years abit rich coming from the Owen Coyle number 1 fan. How the Alex Neil rumour doing? Happy to be my number 2 4000Holes?

Very good question asked and one we will never know. Are Venkys looking to sell the club or waiting for replacement to be ready to take over Maybe he would have been a target for us if we had sold Armstrong already I would say this is very different situation to the Bowyer one in 2015 as Bowyer was allow to sign players after selling Gestede. But it appears Mowbray can't even sign a free transfer in Reach or PL loan player at the minute. Seems nothing will happen until Armstrong is sold.

But you are talking about a very time and era for the club compare to this one including 2 top managers who bought us success and good football in Mark Hughes and Graeme Souness. Its a period of time I won't forget espically the UEFA Cup run under Hughes or the League Cup under Souness. But now is very different time for the club under these owners and this CEO and manager. I don't mind signing 2 players at the age 28 but not on overpriced wages like we did with Best, Etuhu and Murpht

Look at @phili's post about Venkys wouldnt release funds to sign Reach last week when Mowbray asked for them. So it's the owners won't back him anymore. Huddersfield have recruit well and bought in some experience players on decent wages I imagine on free transfers but they sold players for very good fees. Plus the same have the 3rd year of the parachute payment and those players on high wages have gone now. Its almost a new squad there under their new squad now. Is it acceptable? Does it matter currently. We need a few signings in but I'm not expect them in this week given what has been posted on here in the past 24 hours. Like I said yesterday, our wage bill was too high last season and now it's having to reduce to meet FFP rules and the fact the owners won't keep funding the club at the current level. It's seems the owners won't sanction anything until Armstrong is sold

I agree totally that signings like Pickering are the ones we should be doing. Not over spending on wages on 28/29 years old players. Plus @roversfan99has refuse to answer who would be playing left back this season if we hasn't signed Pickering. But we aren't increasing income at the club but its decreasing. I Know WHAT is part of FFP rules thanks. But you refuse to accept that our yearly wage bill is far too high for a club with our turnover. Can we keep paying the same wages for lower mid table finish?

Don't see Ainsworth as it would be backward step move, plus he wouldn't walk out on Wycombe unless it was to could here imo

Would be surprised if Venkys even knew about Tracey Crouch review into football. They should be looking to sell the club now

Fair enough. Clearly the owners don't trust Mowbray's judgement on transfers anymore. So why is he here makes me ask myself. Who sanction the Pickering transfer? Someone on here said it Pasha and Slivester who push the transfer through on Harvey recommendation. Is this correct?

My point to Mercer was more of case he has mentioned so many times or tipping point I have run out of fingers and toes to count his comments now.

So who decide to do the deal? And was it Stuart Harvey who recommended him to them? Is Mowbray still involved in this summer recruitment drive or has this been taken out of his hands now? And he is more of a head coach now?
