Axel broken hand so not travelled. I had forgotten about him. Would be a bit off for Gudjonsson to star against France and go on the bench today. Andre up top and the Japanese lads on the flanks?

Presumably any fine will be taken from assets held in security

Spanking Serbia 5-0 in Belgrade is a sit up and take notice result at any level.of game.

In dire need of lady luck smiling on us. Please And a shoot on sight approach to give us a chance of getting lucky..

For what it's worth, I am reasonably convinced the ultimate source of the money that paid the Walker Trust was in the UK but that Mrs D rumbled the family had been sold a pup sometime around 2012 since when Rovers have been an unwanted naan on the Pune breakfast table. Occasionally nibbled at but otherwise left to gather flies. Now the tantric one and son seem sufficiently clear of their Italian experience I suspect Tommy Jimmy is correct. Even a decade on from the Kean era there are too many old problems for a genuine third party to be allowed freedom of full due diligence. The consequences of Neville Mansions and Akron birthday bash played out in the Delhi High Court last week illustrates the problem.

Sticking with my estimated 10 I am confident are good enough to keep us in this league. Hopefully, some newbies develop and that 10 figure grows. Thankfully Gueye is not in the 10 but I didn't think we'd be mad enough to offload him with our window closed and Turkey still open.. Here's to us raiding the free agents bin and Umtiti starting at Watford... Going back to sleep. Best way of getting better...

Heard it was a woman whom would probably have been a very popular appointment but the RG neurotoxins maywell have killed the notion.

There is no certainty the money held under guarantee will come to Rovers. I fear it will be needed to dig us out of relegation doodoo whereas when it was being deposited with the Courts it could have been used to get us into the Premier League. The 7.7m fine could have been far worse. I would imagine there was enormous relief in the Pune compound. Still remains ridiculous stupidity of people so wealthy getting themselves into such a stew back in 2010 .... Which includes buying the Rovers

Only 10 players I would be confident of being good enough to keep us in the Championship

Hey Jordan- Lend us a tenner

On the Rudy replies. key phrase- WITHIN THE CLUB WAGE STRUCTURE. The Pasha wage structure is such that ANY decent player at Rovers can double their wages at 50%+ of clubs in the Championship and not be the top wage earner where they transfer to. Rudy's first language is not English so he either has a damned good ghost writer or he is far more articulate in written English than 90% of native English speaking footballers

As Glen has posted, the situation at Rovers is far worse and far more perilous than even the "negative" posters are saying. I am more worried and scared for our club now since John Williams left.

Lunchtime so skimmed through this thread which is as depressing as I feel about Rovers. 15 years of pain with occasional bright glimpses snatched away by even more excruciating incompetence. Went to the club website which of course is out of date. Based on the evidence we have to date, there are 3 players who are probably good enough to get us into the play-offs: Ribeiro, Tronstad, Cantwell 10 players good enough to keep us in the Championship: Toth, Alebiosu, Pickering, McLoughlin, Wharton, Carter, Tavares, Hedges, Morishita, Ohashi Relegation bound- the other 13. Ismael has a huge job on his hands.

Boy oh boy this is a big game now. We need to get lucky at Vicarage Road and how.

When the fixture list came out, my reaction was the sequences were such that they could relegate us if we messed up. After this window I am now alarmed. Quietly all through yesterday the clubs that could be fellow travellers in distress were strengthening while we were selling the centre back who had spent every minute of the last 50 games on the park.

Harrison Armstrong loan to PNE

That defunct send button doing its thing again. Paperwork now has to be complete and filed. But up to the clubs when they announce it. Several mooted PL moves not announced including Isak to Liverpool and Elliott to Villa.

Mee has gone to the Blades

Guehi deal has fallen through. If that can...

https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2025/september/01/leonard-makes-permanent-peterborough-switch/ but nothing about Hyam or Garner-Hickman

All Sheffield Wednesday Summer incoming dealings annulled by the EFL because of lack of assurances from the owner. Any of those worth a 10 minute phone call?

Under two hours left. Allowing for Pasha obfuscation and dysfunctional send buttons, we are probably already too late for whatever may or may not have hoped to happen. so no Garner-Hickman No Hyam to Hollywood No Gueye to Aberdeen No Leonard to Peterborough No Tyjon to Arsenal No Pears to a hairdresser.

Keep Hyam and land Garner-Hickman would be sensible. So it won't happen.

A different Genk forward whose scoring record is about the same as Gudjonsson has signed for Wolves for 24m..

Wrexham have just paid 6.5m for Ben Sheaf from Coventry. Meantime Guehi has been sold to Liverpool despite Glasner's objections so that's a British CB we won't be signing as a Hyam replacement..
