One thing we could offer Phillips is a pathway to the first team. In 3 years time, at Rovers he will probably be a regular first teamer, with one of the big clubs he will probably be on loan somewhere.

I'd have to file it under : nobody knows the facts.

I don't know what you mean by your statement in bold.

Perhaps he hasn't had a conversation with Nyambe.

Wasn't Broughton behind us getting JDT. Pretty inspired in my eyes, and a good start. Broughton has credit, as far as I am concerned.

Not with my knees.

Not for the Rovers.

I would agree and say that is the best plan for Batty. But I would say he will blossom into at least a championship level full-back.

I know people will, pooh-pooh this by saying he is too young, but Batty is a better full-back than Pickering. He is fast and tenacious. I know he has a lot to learn, but no better time and place to learn, than now, with us.

Yes, or I wouldn't have said it.

The squad as it stands, is what we have got. Adequate for what. If we go into the season with the squad how it stands, I expect us to challenge for the play-offs.

And Mars bars.

I predict a riot.

He was leaving, but they sold the club, to him.

On the game, I though that for a great percentage of the match, our passing was poor, but we never gave up. Will we come across teams as good as Celtic on a regular basis in the championship ? I don't think so. Bring on QPR. ASLEF please don't stike on the 30th

Thanks for that, an excellent link.

Pike.

No, he will be paid whatever is in his last contract. I would assume, he is in his month in hand, which will be paid at the end of July.

Buses to Preston are no problem, they run every 20 minutes

No realistic point whatsoever

Thanks for that.

The season starts in two weeks I am excited about that. There has already been a dampener thrown on that with the trains from Preston, maybe being on stike on the 30th. If they are I will have to find another way of getting to Ewood.

I would want players who want to be at the Rovers. Kipre has already proven that he doesn't, so move on, in my opinion.

Plus the £30 newcomer tax.

If you follow the quotes, you will see that the original statement, that I answered to, was : You can't do any worse than sign no-one. I will stick by my answer to that statement. At no point have I said that we should not get new players in
