  1. In fairness to Mowbray he has said he wasn't happy with the scouting system we had in place.It will be fairer to judge him on recruitment now he has implemented the changes he wanted
  2. Yeah but do the players who took pay cuts due to relegation from the championship go back to their original contracts now we have been promoted?Our wage bill this season is quite low but if those players do go back to their original contracts then our wage bill could rise significantly before any new signings arrive
  3. Why would you keep Gladwin?He had one decent season at Swindon a few years ago he has done nothing here or at his previous club.Has Mowbray said he is part of his plans next season or something as I'm really struggling to understand why any rovers fan would want Gladwin to still be at the club next season
  4. Yeah you are correct.Suprised he got a 2 year deal although I doubt he could be on much of a wage.So if he wants to play then maybe both him and the club will come to an agreement which will see him moving on
  5. Does Caddis have another year?I thought he only got a 1year deal?
  6. We will agree to disagree.I don't see Rovers being interested in Henegan.We did have an interest Last summer..a year is a long time with this new scouting system Mowbray has been talking up I'd hope we can do better than a Sheffield United reserve. Downing did do well but he won't be starting next season and we have no idea wether he will be good enough at championship level You want us to sign two new wingers.Sign Armstrong and Payne.So can I ask where Conway and Gladwin fit in?I take tomphils point about his experience but if we do bring in wingers then Conway has rarely started this season so if we sign players in the position you suggest then he will be further away from the first team.The same with Gladwin who has done nothing of note since his Swindon days.You also want the youth to be given a chance which I agree with but everyone can't get a game chaddy so no point giving a new deal to Conway of being going to contribute on the field and not a chance in hell of Gladwin becoming a regular in my opinion
  7. Chaddy why do you keep suggesting Henegan from Sheff United.We were interested last summer but he moved to Sheffield United and has hardly played.They obviously don't think he is ready for the Championship so why should we be interested in him. On Gladwin what have you seen from him that makes you willing to give him a chance? Keep Conway....Keep Gladwin plus you want us to sign players this summer are you wanting us to have a 35 man squad next season. We shouldn't be keeping the likes of Gladwin. Conway has been a great servant but his time is sadly up he should be let go to make room for new additions.
  8. He had Ipswich playing some ok football and was getting them in and around the playoffs before they sold his two best players in Mings to Bournemouth and Murphy to Newcastle two player's McCarthy brought to the club that they sold on for 15 million. I think they paid something like 10 grand for Mings and sold him on for between 8-10 million and then sold Murphy to Newcastle for 5 and Mcarthy saw hardly any of that profit invested back into his transfer kitty.He did a very good job,he spent a pittance and made the club good money and kept them comfortable. They should be getting angry with the owner for not giving McCarthy a bit of cash especially with the profit on those two
  9. What a goal by Neves for Wolves 'WATCH: Neves scores stunning volley' http://www.skysports.com/share/11326846
  10. It must be that source from the fox n hounds telling tales again
  11. I thought someone said on here we had got 250k for him?
  12. There hasn't even been talk of a Norwich bid.There was a couple of lines in the paper saying Norwich eyeing up Dack.No mention of figures.Norwich wouldn't be able to afford what we would want for him
  13. Strange how his career has gone. Remember looking on in envy when he was at Brentford. Remember at half time at ewood their players looking professional going through drills whilst ours played kickabout like they where down the park with their mates.
  14. Have you watched mindhunter thought it was quite good. Narcos is exceptional
  15. Supposedly Sheffield Wednesday are lining up Paul Lambert to come in if the sack their manager.Be interesting to see how he uses Rhodes if he does get the job
  16. Great result.Mowbray has stopped tinkering too much and in spells we have started to play some good football unlike at the start of the season.Fair play to the manager . Happy to see Tomlinson get game time,I will be beyond disappointed if Harper comes straight back into the 16 and Tomlinson is demoted.Harper hasn't pulled up any trees in his performances and although I wish the lad well our own promising youngster like Tomlinson should have priority over helping develop some other clubs player
  17. I enjoyed it.Would definitely recommend you watch it Iv just finished The man in the high castle, an Amazon prime show based on a novel.Really really good series
  18. It's nice seeing some of our younger talent putting pen to paper.I have to admit I thought I'd see a lot of our more talented youth moving on in search of more 1st team football
  19. Anyone been watching Mindhunter on Netflix?4 episodes in,first episode was a bit slow but with each episode gets better.Already been renewed for a second series
  20. The pathetic thing is knowing venkys it will be David Lowe who is given the caretaker role. I'd like to see Johnson being given a chance but with the way the club is being run he may not want it.A young manager has to make the right choice when taking their first job in senior football and he may feel he is better waiting for a club with a competent board and structure behind it
  21. It doesn't look like any of these lads will get a chance with Mowbray in charge.I Don't understand it,he is happy to bring in a 17 year old from west brom but won't reward our own youth despite their excellent form.The telegraph should be grilling him about this
  22. Ditto,guess we have Caddis to look forward too again tomorrow
  23. How many of those 70+ appearances where starts?How many where up front on not on the wing when a blind man could see he wasn't a winger
