You do realise the new season starts in less than a fortnight? Not a factor in your thinking?

Let's hope it doesn't happen very often then.

I believe its been reached but we'll see as the season progresses. I've no faith that we will ever be promoted with him in charge. He's done a lot of good work but.....

No! Sorry you've gone too far there.Most of thought (knew?) we would be relegated the second we heard he was the new manager! He truly was that donut. Whoever he signed we were going down on fitness and training issues alone.

Rothwell?

Theraya May? (no txt please)

That reads a lot like failure. Its the recruiting team's job to identify their targets and chase them down. We missed out on Bauer too after pursuing him for a year and a half.

E? That one isn't but it doesn't wipe out the daft decisions you have alluded to. In truth any manager who didn't tie up Travis long-term is an idiot.

Not exactly the A List is it?!

But of course you will!

ie back to front!

You know you're missing the point there! Its about priorities!

Then you are deliberately setting up TM to fail!!!----according to your very own words on this MB. Moreover you said it was impossible to do this before the window ended!!

You're trying hard but its obvious that, as far as transfer windows go, we do not concentrate on areas of immediate need. I don't see how that statement can possibly be contested. (but it will!)

None of those 3 you mentioned are wingers, therefore its not surprising we have a huge hole there! So---a genuine winger who will actually be picked----great! We keep signing players but we don't fill the holes!

He was let go because he wanted to go and we needed the money for Gallagher.

A News Now article linking us (and others) with Glen Whelan, released by Villa. Meets all Rovers criteria--free, a mid-fielder and 35 years old.

Since he's quitting I doubt he cares! I'll miss him---good poster.

Would he then be our top earner?

You would think so eh? Waste of scarce resources.

I'd like this too.

This is hard to follow. Someone ITK is being attacked by the Miserablists and defended by the Happy Clappers according to one version. Yet I see him being defended by Miserablists! A further complication is that he said there could be up to 5 new signings before the season starts. Now I thought the Happy Clapper position was that anyone advocating 5 new signings was deliberately setting TM up to fail??? I haven't taken part in this debate at all because I don't know what side I'm meant to be on! On a more serious note its churlish to attack someone who seems to know what he's talking about and stupid to drive him off.

That's true but surely someone should be in his ear----constantly.

Leave after 80 minutes is my advice!!
