Leutwiler and Smallwood

Can you imagine the reaction on Dragon's Den had they both gone in with that pitch?

Oh no, are Anderson and Kean back on the scene?

He was overrated. We wanted a good CM and latched onto him as he was homegrown. Unfortunately, he's not all that.

Cedric Kipre says 'hold my beer'

Exactly, what a likeable lad he is. I'd written him off but I don't think I've ever wanted to see someone succeed more than him.

Used to play for Rossendale against my lad in junior football. Was never one you thought was extra special and did he not also fail to make the grade at Accy? He's obviously come on from then.

If true that's a truly appalling piece of business. Reach is a cart horse, like a modern version of Rick Holden, the scruffy, useless Oldham/City winger from the late 90s. And I'll bet he gets a boro style length of contract. Mark my words, this lad is crap.

No bulldozers either. For now.

I know, but why wheel Stig out unless he's cadging 10p for a cup of tea?

I'm with The Four Tops on this one. Reach OUT.

If it is then that will tell it's own story and show that Mowbray has got the club stitched up.

That kit is bang on.

For me, all of these departures point towards the resurrection of the training ground sale by the Cov Shitehouses. The STC? No-one works there anymore, no point having it. There's no way they are walking away from this deal.

Fingers crossed the door is the exit door and it's Mowbray

Is John Park his name or an instruction?

What have we become when we're wheeling Stig of the dump out as a spokesperson for the club?

Hold onto it, I'll ask for it in January when it's mathematically impossible

Done.

I'll happily give 50s if anyone fancies a flutter

League 1 clubs don't need top class academy and training facilities. Maybe what is happening on the pitch isn't the most important business for our esteemed management team.

Whoever suggested him for us needs sectioning. Honestly....

But at least we competed. This slow death costs 20 million a year and we never lay a glove on the top 6. Some of my best years following the Rovers in the mid to late 80s had us top 6 in a better quality 'second' division with a £90,000 record signing. I would take those days right now.

The problem is, whichever way the season ticket sales go, it can be spun to suit the management. High sales is validation of the job he is doing. Low sales adds more weight to the small club theory Mowbray wants to peddle to lower expectations and fit in with his lack of ability. What a shit show.

I'd take John Bond over Mowbray, and he's been dead for years.
