In the same manner that I want Newcastle to force Isak to stay if Liverpool don't pay what Newcastle wants and in any case let him rot on the bench, I want the same from Rovers when it comes to Trav. Putting himself in such a position being the team captain is not okey.

We have what looks like a very competitive squad now (who I think willv play this season): GK: Toth, MIchalski - Maybe weak here RB: Alebiosu, Miller, Montgomery CB: Hyam, Mclouglin, Carter, Wharton LB: Ribeiro, De Neve, Pickering CDM/CM: Tronny, Tavares, Baradji, Montgomery, Forshaw AM: Cantwell, Henriksson, Tyjon Wingers ish: Hedges, Kargbo, Miro ST: Gueye, Ohashi

Where is the video of the meet up with Baradji? Need to see hit. I have learned from past mistakes and will never get a player on my shirt anymore - was so close to having Travis this summer. Glad I didn't! But Miro without kicking the ball would be the one.

I agree 100% Colt. I had so high hopes and loved him play with his Swagger style. For me one episode made a major downturn in his situation and that was away at Boro in 2022. He had played himself into JDTs team and suited JDTs style very well. He then got a stupid red card by throwing the ball at a Boro player and got sent off. Very harsh by the referee. But after this Bucko never returned to his best. Very sad.

The one thing I have been a bit concerned about is the "family feeling" disappearing. Longstanding, nice guys from our academy such as Bucko, Trav, Leonard and maybe Pears all leaving the club in window. What fills me with hope is that the characters brought in gives a warm feeling around the place; Yuki is already a legend, Ribeiro is very underrated, Henriksson has a great character, Toth really is a huge step up and I already love Miro. You have the cultural bearers such as Tronny, Hyam spiced up with Academy graduates; S. Wharton, Montgomery, Mullarkey-Matthews, Tyjon, Michalski ++ The combination of the squad really is ARTE ET LABORE It's been like this before. I was devastated when my favorite players Bentley went to Spurs and Roque went to City. It's a part of the game! Whenever a door closes, another one opens! Make yourself a Rovers legend!

Looking at Eustaces recruiting this summer it isnt Shocking. Its his type.

What recruits? Kargbo?

Just rewatched the game. Todd got MOTM and deservedly so, because he knits everything together like a puppet master. Some other players to praise with really good performances; Alebiosu. He is full of energy, pacey and better defensively than Brittain imo. Powerhouse going forward. Tavares needs a mention too. In one part of the game he sprinted left of the pitch to cover for hedges, 20-30 seconds later he is in the opposite corner trying to get a cross in. Tavares looks very neat and tidy and full of running. Considering the academy players. No doubt that Montgomerys preferred position is midfield. He has a bit about him, not afraid to get stuck in and played some neat passes together with Tronstad, Cantewell. McLoughlin is an amazing signing. Solid and steady. Cant say I miss Batth. Wharton however looked quite miserable on the bench, but I guess he wants to play.

He wants to find players similar to himself. He is 6 4

Weimann and Sanderson been really weak

Not really. Both Tronstad and Mclouglin would be a good captains,

Remember when Chaddy said Todd Cantwell would be a good alternative as captain and he got ridiculed? well he is our new captain

Again? It’s sad to see such a talent destroyed by injuries. Wonder if it’s a mental thing as well

Pardon if mentioned, but why doesn’t Leonard play?

Think he is more box to box

Not really any worse than a deadline day signing. The things that frightens me is the lack of experience and injury record

a curiosity: 23. juni 2024 — Blackburn Rovers are showing interest in striker Augustus Kargo, who scored nine goals in the Italian third tier last season. The link to Kargbo appeared June 2024. He was signed deadline day January 2025. Very often are the players we end up first linked to us through very random articles

However, in order to progress, other clubs such as Middlesbrough, Bristol City etc, reinvest upwards of 70% of transfer fees received into transfer fees for new signings to improve their squad we have been above both of them lately

Really tough fixtures to start of the season

Think it was Tavares corner. Horrible decision. Sometimes we can play it short and keep the ball. This is a Rovers thing.

WBA beat Wrexham 2-3 today. They are not a bad side. we were decent today. Fought well, full of running, but we were very hard done by.

I don’t get it though. you love this club. I would hate my wife if I called her ugly, fat and useless couple of times a day

Anthony Knockaert (fra Standard Liège til Leicester, 2012 🤣

The margins between being a success or a failure are extremely tight. heard a story today about a player (x) who had a gentlemen’s agreement with a PL club, then when x flew over to sign he had a phone call from his friend who played for Rovers who wanted him to sign for us. X met our manager at the time and really wanted to sign for rovers, but stayed loyal to the gentlemen’s agreement. X made a huge mistake in his PL debut. The manager never spoke to him again and he never got to fullfill his potential. It could have beeen completely different if he hadn’t made that mistake or signed for Rovers
