There may be some mileage in this, the narrative around a sale recently has changed substantially from "We will NEVER sell the Club" a few years ago to the 3 stooges hinting that a sale might not be out of the question in the car crash interviews and Pasha saying every Club is for sale at the right price at the Fans Forum. Edit: We need a lot more pressure on their lackeys Gestede, Pasha and Ismael from the Coalition and with a bit of luck they might all decide at some point it's just not worth it.

I wouldnt actually be that bothered if Pickering left, I don't rate him at all defensively. Do we need him AND Ribeiro? That said I would never underestimate Gestede's ability to bring in someone even worse

We generally havent been very good with Tronstad in the side either this season. Getting Carter back in some sort of reasonable condition will be key to any chances of getting a result I feel. Worrying comments from Ismael about Cantwell. A "kick on the knee" should have been a minor issue and a short recovery time. Instead it's dragging on interminably. If he's OK one day and not the next it sounds to me as though either a) They havent diagnosed the injury correctly or b) Cantwell is swinging the lead until he can get a move in January. Either way I'd be slightly surprised if we see him in a Rovers shirt again. It'd be rather embarrassing if we lose two captains inside 6 months. Bit like head coaches.

That's likely to be it then. Hardly worth blasting the money away on legal fees trying to get them removed.

You'd have thought hot and cold running water would be a condition of the Licence granted by the Local Authority.

Ruben Rochina would have been worth the admission fee on his own imo. I know not everyone agrees.

Thinking back - there was probably a much better line up for Tony Parkes' testimonial. Didn't King Kenny, Shearer and Garner play?

Yep. I was scratching my head trying to remember who Matt Kilgallon was I must admit.

Badge, gold badge, Maltese Cross, Macron logo, Poppy. Looks a right dog's breakfast.

Personally the gold one has grown on me slightly but I think the green one is ghastly. I dont see the attraction of having things like the Wainwright Bridge and Darwen Tower on them at all either. Should have been former players/Jack/Kenny etc.

I thought not. All incredibly odd.

There's a few they upset from around that time. Nelsen as well.

So hypothetically, if the Court ruled in their favour they could send another lump of money over? Bit pointless if as RG claims it doesn't have any bearing on the transfer situation. Thanks as always, for your patience in trying to explain this. If you can't be bothered tuning in we can always hear about it from Jackson in about 2 months time.

Very good! 🙂

But there's nothing left to argue about on that score is there? It's been decided. Unless the Authorities are trying to argue the guarantee should be reinstated.

Don't mind him being against loans and free agents in principle. But only if the permanent business is up to scratch. If it isn't- needs must.

What's that for, to decide how much they get fined?

I get the impression Chris Sutton doesn't have much time for them. Need him and Robbie Savage to speak out a bit more on their show. Maybe the coalition could contact them?

"Greats" is probably an extreme stretch for some of them out there. But I know what you mean. I can barely bring myself to watch anything from the Dalglish era now, it's too upsetting knowing what we were and comparing it to the husk of a Club we are now.

Someone on here said it's being held back until after Christmas, presumably because we have a surplus of normal shirts to shift first. No idea if that's true or not. Leaving aside how shit and overpriced it is, I can't see us shifting many shirts for a commemorative season when it's almost over. Also, whether or not there was an initial meeting to set up the Club right at the end of 1874 we definitely weren't formed in 1876.

The link you've put up there is from August. We've had several international breaks since then.

That doesn't work with our dogs. They cottoned on after the first few times they'd been fooled.

Sorry - what was the justification for signing a guy on a season long loan who hasnt been seen yet and who (as far as I know) still doesn't have a return date yet?

Well, according to a few people who've left the Club recently it isn't great. And Suhail admitted in the last Fans Forum that the various players who have left wanted to leave the Club. Dalglish is obviously talking about the environment from when he was here 30 odd years ago chaddy.

I don't know. I only mentioned the other two because Atcheson's name has appeared on the bench recently. Opinions on all 3 welcome. If none of them are a better option than Hedges in that position, I can't see much of a future in professional football for them.
