  1. Just saying you can't make much of the table on so few results!
  2. Coventry fans say 1.5M and are hopping mad about it! They also claim we came in earlier with a bigger offer and Coventry rejected it!
  3. Well that's true! It is easy to forget keepers and he was the best.
  4. Well it doesn't prove anything. its indicative though. We could be 23rd in the League based on the last 2 results! Bit early for those sorts of conclusions. Anyway, they didn't have Clarke then did they?!!!
  5. Boosterism!! I'm an English football fan not an American evangelist!
  6. Yes --if we wish hard enough we'll get what we want. Inflation will come down and we'll go up!
  7. Boro signed Matt Clarke for the same, who did best?
  8. I thought that was implicit in the whole set-up-----becoming a sustainable Premier League club and all that. We're certainly not going to buy our way up are we?
  9. If Philips becomes one of our best players in 18 months that's as long as we'll have him. The same goes for any player we have who is outstanding, like Brereton. The idea that we'll gradually build up a team of youngsters to adult stars is just a dream I'm afraid.
  10. Ah you're back! Is it time to panic yet?
  11. Come from nowhere and go nowhere....
  12. Pure boosterism from Chaddy. If you walk around with a grin on your face everything will be alright!
  13. Good buy that. They will be there or thereabouts this season.
  14. That's quite right. We were all annoyed that Berkovic had gone for someone we'd barely heard of! Then there was his age! I remember thinking "he can't be much good, we only paid a million for him!" That was the best £1 million we ever spent---possibly the best £1 million any club ever spent! And he bonded with us as if he'd known us all his life! Sheer Turkish delight from start to finish!
  15. I can't understand the level of complacency here. 8 left, we knew they would. We had months to prepare and we will be scrambling about in the final hours of the window hoping something falls our way. You could not conclude the Club is gunning for promotion could you? That's one conclusive statement we can make! If things do change very quickly, it still takes time for new players to bed in and we've already played 5 games. We are as amateurish in recruitment as we have always been since Venkys rocked up---another conclusive statement.
  16. Read like he would take a centre-back on loan but not Van Hecke!
  17. Thinking back about the best players to wear a Rovers shirt in my lifetime, I got it down to four---Douglas, England, Shearer and Tugay. You could probably add Clayton to that list. I tried to put them in order but an impossible task. A privilege to see any of them, let alone all 4 at this unfashionable old club of ours.
  18. A genius was Tugay. We were so lucky to see such players in our shirt. Makes you furious at the same time--destroyed by morons.
