The latest information that a vaccine whether its the Oxford or German one will be available at the end of the year. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/global-health/science-and-disease/england-germany-neck-neck-race-produce-first-vaccine/ Who knows? what happens if we still another type of coronavirus by then?

I wonder if we are at keeper Philipp Kühn from Osnabruck in Bundesliga 2. Kept 9 clean sheets in 28 games. 27 years old and worth 360k on transfermarkt. @JoeH do you have any stats on this keeper? I have suggestion him based on the number of clean sheets last season and he has the same agent as Lewis Holtby. I've seen a couple of YouTube clips but not enough to form an opinion.

more false claims here again! Wasn't my suggestion but based on comments from People from Oxford University at that time. Without a vaccine or treatment you will never have full stadiums or be able to attend away games again until this happen. The phase 3 testing is happening right now with Oxford University potential vaccine. AstraZeneca is mass production right now.

I never said I wanted him here, I just discussed the player and his ability. Something you can't different between

I don't think he will be here. A similar situation to Rodwell last summer. and you thought Johnson would be good signing and Downing would be poor signing based on few Boro fans opinion. Mowbray wants a ball playing centre back. I gave you 3 players who could play that role. They might not be as good as Adarabioyo but can play it. No I said that Mowbray might have to adapt his style and tactics if he cant find that player. Thats my point. You based your opinion on other fans opinions like always and learnt nothing from last summer when you based your opinion on a few Boro fans who wrote Downing off and WBA fans who wrote Adarabioyo off but never played his proper position long term there. You never learned. Lindsay isn't his peak but someone the club has been scouting and looking at for a couple of seasons. We scouted him in league 1 and we should have signed him last summer. Not defending the Nixon info cos I had the info earlier that week. Yes he went to Belgium club owned by the CURRENT Leicester City owner. A transfer thats would have taken minutes to do.

true but the terms of the deal you suggested would effectively just be for a season. I would prefer someone for couple of seasons at least as number 1. His wages would be well out of reach sadly. Probably on 30k a week there at least if not more in my opinion. We probably look at spending around 10k a week tops on a 1st choice keeper. Thats why we should be looking at the foreign market where the value is. Someone like Kevin Muller at FC Heidenheim, Heinz Lindner who is a free agent or Vaclav Hladky who is a free agent after leaving St Mirren this summer

I have heard a number of non league owners on the radio today saying without restrictions being lifted it will kill non league football. The club has said they won't released any info on ST tickets yet with the current restrictions for me, All Season Tickets Holders need to be asked 1st about renewing before new fans. Rovers have to guarantee that fans who are Season Ticket Holders can have their normal seat back after the virus has gone finally. I can understand Rovers stance on not selling Season Tickets whilst totally understand what @JHRover is saying about income stream for the club and keeping the habit of going aswell. even tho we different views on whether we should be selling ST right now with no timescale of we will be defiantly allowed back into stadiums by this time. Maybe Rovers could introduce a membership scheme thats secure your seat as season ticket holder for a couple of seasons depending when we will be allowed back into stadium from some reports suggested a Vaccine by end of year/Start of new year.

I liked someone post before my earlier post about this Downing's situation is similar to Rodwell the previous summer. If he wants to sign here he would have done it by now I would withdraw the contract now to Downing and used his wages towards making the signings we need at the centre back, left back and 2 keepers. Thats has been the priority He off to Derby now. If we only offer a 12 months contract won't we be in the same position as this summer as 12 months deal is similar to a loan deal in reality Have you listen Rich Sharpe's comments about Budget including wages, the players market we looking at which seems to the overseas market on today Rovers Chat YouTube video? He mention Iversen and the fact that Leicester wanted his full 15k wages paying which would put him at top end of our wage bill. He also mention that Rovers thought they had their 2 overseas keepers set to come in. He also mention that Mowbray might have to bite the bullet and realised that he not going to be able the same quality ball playing defender as Adarabioyo and adapt the way he might want to play. And just bring in a solid centre defender like Lindsay for example.

Yes a very restricted situation but the only way out of this situation is a vaccine or treatment. Depends on whether Blackburn is on local lockdown still, how you social distancing supporters in stadiums, etc

well Charlton wanted 2 million pounds for Bauer. Given he played in their promotion season and scored a goal in the final you could say its was worth it. On Philips, if the fee is less a million pounds then I would be paying it. Unless we want someone better than him

far from ideal and will no doubt annoyed and angry some fans

he ain't coming back here. still at Charlton. Bowyer and Gallen don't want to sell him even tho he won't sign a new contract?

Depends how the player or players got the virus? Was it whilst in was Austria or France? You DON'T know whether the player or players would have get the virus if Liverpool stayed based at Melwood. Can you say for sure they would have got it in the UK?

oh well, so much for Klopp knowing what he was doing.

So how are Bradford City going to decide who gets to attend or not? a question no one has answered so far can't they don't know how to solve this problem

I think his wages are the problem there from what I read. Similar to their loan bid for Darlow

Can't really get excited about the season when you aren't going to be allowed into Stadiums in normal way and sit together with your friends, discussing football with people around in the stadium, watching the game on tv before the game, having a pre match burger. Going into the club shop before the game. Normally I would be going some pre season games but not allowed. or even attend some of the under 23 or under 18 games either. So to get excited when if you are going to be allowed into stadiums only if you were a facemask, social distancing and only allowing to used the concourse for toilet facilities isn't normal football supporters life . I will still check the fixtures when they come out on Friday or when signings are made but this isn't a normal pre season. Football won't be normal until we are allowed to return to normal British life and thats is only through a Vaccine or treatment in my opinion

why do I need to endorse any players? wow. I'm sure plenty of footballers did they research on going on holiday to overseas until the Quarantine rules came in countries like Spain and France.

and plenty of clubs haven't done it this short pre season. Also we have friendlies fixtures starting this Saturday so why have pre season training camp when we have the facilities at Brockhall needed and you said that we won a opening fixtures for a number of years, so maybe staying at Brockhall and training there might lead to opening day win So because Liverpool do it we should do it? really? Just imagine if Austria went on quarantine list this week and Liverpool players had to self isolated for 14 days? Can Birmingham afford Etheridge's wages? Thanks for sharing your info. Lindsay would be good signing for us. as would Cunningham would be good signing Elliott Moore from Oxford United? I have no idea how good Mitryushkin is.

He is centre defender https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/timo-letschert/profil/spieler/231378

Some pictures of pre season training

Totally Wicked extend their Sponsorship of Rovers Training Kit

I have my opinions knew on season tickets sales as I don't see the point at all in putting them on sale unless we know the government guidelines on the amount of fans going to be allow in. If a club has sold 80% of the capacity as Season Ticket holders but only allow 10 or 20% allowed to attend, how are clubs going to decide who gets to go or not? I'm sure the kit and sponsor will be announce in the next couple of weeks. Would I like the shirts on sale? Yes I would as I want to buy one and my step daughter has asked for me already. We will get a new number 1 keeper, centre back and left back before the start of season. A number of clubs are after a new number 1 keeper whether its us, Birmingham, Derby, Rotherham

less risk but the same risk as being at their own training ground. Wrong. Rovers have made safe that Brockhall is covid safe after putting the work in to ensure this

Coronavirus has plenty to do with it. why take any risk of any players getting the virus and having to quarantine for number of days Clubs can't go to their normal places for pre season like us going to Austria. Why go to Scotland that might not be covid safe?
