All that waiting for nothing.

Assuming Cantwell has signed (I know!) what do people think our best starting eleven now is?

I think it’s an even higher percentage when the club has only just gone down to League One.

Full match…

all but done… 😬😬

Is there a reason the club haven’t applied to change Siggy to a non ESC player?

I’m not sure how accurate this website is but apparently not:

that would have required common sense and/or the of showing initiative.

It’s linked to when the permit was granted, which was in July ‘23 https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2023/july/05/sigurdsson-s-visa-granted/

I’ll have a quick nosey at the rules and see how it words the qualifying period…

Would still count.

He signed in June ‘23 so I can’t see an issue with the 12 month qualifying period. I’m quite often wrong though 😁

If a ESC player plays the requisite percentage of minutes in the requisite percentage of games a club can apply to make him a non ESC player. Someone on here ran the numbers for me and believes Siggy met the requirements. What we don’t know is whether the club are aware this part of the regulations exist… As far as I can see, having reread the regulations, there’s nothing to suggest a new contract has to be offered to trigger this.

Cost when the owners are billionaires, the CEO has confirmed they can fund the club as they wish, FFP is no excuse due to outgoings. Something doesn’t quite add up here 🧐🧐🧐🧐

Sounds like this one’s on JE

There’s no extra time , straight to pens

A silver lining at last.
