Sign of the times. The type of players rovers are in the market for these days are young untested kids who might (and mostly) turn out to be shit. Veterans or crocks. If they’re in their prime and sound decent I’d be checking their criminal history because there’ll be something wrong with them even if its not immediately obvious

It’s alright in a years time you’ll be able to watch us stuff them again in their shitty documentary.

Szmodics is a real Rovers players that represents everything the club stands for hope he's here for many years to come.
When swag/the egg are at the helm it’ll be a good few days before they sell.

Moran, siggy, Garrett no where near the necessary level even v non league/division 4 oppo.

The commentators were quite strange throughout (Gallagher/Kane comparison) but my lol moment was when the fella described Szmodics “you could sense his frustration as he jumped into the air like a newborn lamb” 🤔 only in Wales….
I see no resemblance whatsoever. BBC wales loons in that commentary box.

Owners are shit, directors/club employees are shit, manager is shit, players are shit. Unfortunately there’s not a goddam thing anyone can do about it.

Zombie club. Another winless game what is it now 1 win in 10 in the league. Hopefully the players improved their value by a few quid that’s what it’s really all about.

Not signing someone, linked with someone else and not signing them. It all feels a little pointless and futile and as long as the Venkys remain it’s just rearranging the deckchairs on the titanic.

Given eeyore is 28 and the brum lad mid 30s I’d rather stick with eeyore given there’s marginal gains if any in ability if intended as a replacement and not in addition to. A no thanks from me.

due to the credit he had in the bank and the 'nice guy' schtick which he repeats ad nauseam at every club he goes to almost word for word
He was even at it again at one of his brum press conferences banging on about the buffet and how lucky the assembled media were. Folk lap that innocent old fool shit up and he knows it. Whether he’s always been like that or honed the skill here I don’t know. Either way I want to punch the tv every time I hear him

Here we are again... an underperforming manager that can't be held accountable thanks to the owners.
JDT isn't the problem but the reality is even if he was... there would be nothing we could do about it. We would have to watch them continue to not get results beyond the norm of any other reasonably ran, ambitious club.
As I said mid week, we have owners that are not fit and proper. They are incapable of running a football club.
It will never change until Venky's are out of this club.
Fortunately, I doubt jdt will ever get the cult following that moggadon had. *ill add the caveat I’m referring to cult as in Manson family rather than cult hero. However, starting to hear the same old excuses.
If not
mowbrayjdt then who else. Who will come here. Then the tried and tested train of thought that because Venkys are horrendous it absolves jdt for all sins and makes him good. The Venkys are shit AND jdt is shit. -

That is a very obvious “please sack me”
Yeah. He looks and carries himself like a broken man devoid of any ideas other than relentlessly sticking to his ideology.
Ill give him his dues though shouldering the blame it’s more than moggadon did in 5 years.

Fantastic football? If you count football that results in 2+ goals conceded every game as fantastic you do you I guess. Give me a well fought 1-0 over this any day of the week.
9 minutes ago, tomphil said:We haven't really seen much fantastic football this is a myth that finally needs putting to bed.
It really is.
My mate says we’re the instagram of football. Im not massively up on the differences between all the social media platforms but I gather that’s the one where folk portray a glorified life that bares no resemblance to reality. We’re capable of putting together a great 2 minute highlight reel where look phenomenal but for the other 88 mins it’s turgid at best.

Doesn’t say much about the new left-back from villa that we’d rather play a player out of position than play him. Another egg transfer masterclass perhaps

The club is in one hell of a mess.
It’s a crisis. I wonder whether Waggott understands it. He’s the man at the top at Ewood.
Will he understand it - probably not. Will he care - definitely not.

If you think Warnock would work in these conditions
....
Clearly wouldn’t. But can dream.

Get to Warnock’s retirement home and offer him a steady supply of werthers originals. Alex Neill. Or maybe Nathan Jones another possibility.
Anyone who can instil a bit of fight in them.

The beauty of the director of football and coach set up. Both can just blame each other! No accountability.
Exactly. It was never going to work here not least of all when the dof is so under qualified it’s frightening.

Yet their manager after the game: ‘I’m pleased we don’t have to play them every week’.
Their manager is doing a wonderful job. I’m glad we’ve got this fixture out of the way. 😂😂

baffling comment but I bite tho, lets say JDT is gone tonight who you replacing him with?
Ah yes the infamous argument for keeping Mowbray even though this bloke is a marginal improvement. I thought that might rear its head.

really? Mowbray and Bowyer couldn't do any better despite having proven goalscorers like Rhodes and Gestede or Graham, Dack, Armstrong and BBD.
Those 2 were shit as well. As was that Voldemort character. Plus all the other shit managers we’ve had under this Indian mob.

I’ll give you Szmodics as someone who’s bucked the trend. But hyam blows hot and cold. Tronstad? Jeez that’s some slim pickins.
