I just don't buy the minor knock thing and then have him on the bench. If JRC is injured in the warm up Nyambe would have to start. Unfortunately for Nyambe he seems to be Mowbrays patsy.

He's on the bench though.

Mowbrays treatment of Nyambe has been disgraceful. Dropped for the Millwall game for 'lacking confidence' and publicly called out. I can recall several times last season when Mowbray showed his disdain towards Nyambe with his silly hands on head routine. If I was Nyambes agent I would be tryna to engineer a move for him now and the he will walk away for compensation. If he had started the season badly I can understand dropping him but he hasn't. File this one under the huge list of Mowbray unfathomable decisions.

After Mowbray was talking Wycombe's set piece threat up last week surely Nyambe scores massively over JRC in that respect. If the team is correct we have a really attacking five in midfield anyway.

I have faith in the person who told me. In fact the team he told me is. Kaminski, JRC, Lenihan, Williams, Bell, Johnson, Holtby, Rothwell, Dolan, Armstrong, Bretton. We'll soon know for sure.

Nyambe hasn't done anything to warrant being dropped. How must he feel now when only recently Mowbray was bigging him up.

JRC

I have been told Nyambe has been dropped for today and is on the bench.

Speaking of whom he hasn't been seen since two weeks before the March lock down allegedly.

I wouldn't have sacked John Williams and Tom Finn as they did. We were a steady mid table PL club with proper management. I don't want to go into the history of the last decade because it's been done many times suffice to say we are where we are now through incompetence and arrogance. I wouldn't alienate the fans like Waggott has done.

If you get an opportunity Andy his autobiography is a good read.

Incredible. You criticise supporters and come out with a ridiculous statement about Venkys being more committed than some fans and you might not buy a season ticket yourself. Hypocrisy. Edit: The whole flaming thing is unsustainable now because of their absolute incompetence.

Yeah I've never understood why anybody would persist with a failure for fear of making a worse appointment. One of the most sensible decisions of their tenure was sacking Coyle. But balance that against the ridiculous decision to appoint him in the first place ???.

If you are talking about the decade of decay then that's a very low bar you are setting. I asked the other day for one tangible benefit Waggott has brought to Rovers and as yet nobody has come up with one. Twice in the last three seasons there have been extortionate increases in admission prices which has affected the uptake. One of Waggotts objectives was to grow the supporter base, he has done the opposite by vastly diminishing it. I have said before there are several posters on this site who could do a better job than Waggott at a fraction of the cost.

I always thought Jock Morrison wasn't the brightest but this takes it to another level. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/54199351

What a silly, inflammatory thing to say. Proportionately to my income I would think I spend more on Rovers that Venkys do proportionately to theirs. And I would imagine that applies to lots of other Rovers fans.

Bad news. I read another poster who has been made redundant. Hopefully neither of you will be out of work for long.

Evans? No chance, perhaps £10 bid from Mill Hill St Peters ??? As far as I'm aware the player I heard isn't injured.

And in that decade of decay local businesses have seen their income drop hugely as the home and away support has diminished. Also in the decade of decay Rovers have laid off lots of staff or vastly reduced numbers. It almost reads like Venkys have reduced their financial input to a trickle.

As a group of six friends and family none of us are renewing. Whilst there are some reasons which Rovers have no control over uppermost in at least four of the group is the price increase particularly after a big increase only two seasons ago. Waggotts belligerence and lack of understanding is going to hit Rovers hard.

You are correct but my wider point was that you are expected to pay for something you don't want or can't watch. That aspect, as before is non negotiable.

The loss is £20 each game for the JW Upper and not taking up the iFollow offer which is non negotiable (as it wasn't last season). That is based on an assumption of missing every home game until the end of November.

I really feel that the iFollow offer is just a lazy regurgitation of the offer they made for the last nine games last season. Making an assumption that we will not be allowed into games until the end of November (quite feasible given the local situation) that would be £140 lost for anyone who, for whatever reason, doesn't use iFollow. The reasons for not going are varied and personal with every individual absolutely justified in their own decision. My elder brother rang me last night to say he wasn't bothering. He cited the unjustified price hike but also the issue of actually getting to the ground. We normally catch a bus, one of several run from various pubs in the locality but these will not be running. The closest we could park is Lower Darwen and with our aging, dodgy knees walking would be an inconvenience. I understand this is something that Rovers can't control but the ridiculous access and egress around Ewood on match days is more of a deterrent. I would imagine a lot of the regulars who use the bus service just won't bother.

He has so much that you just can't coach but it can be coached out of him. Hopefully Mowbray and his staff focus on these rather than stifling them.

Who knows what is in the budget Stuart. The issue for me is that of what we currently have nobody can do what Travis does. On form he is pretty much the heartbeat of the team.
