Was just about to post similar. Although it's a copy of what Man Utd did/are doing, different coloured scarves are a great idea as they: Are affordable to most Require minimal effort Visual Encourages attendance to display Doesn't impact on anyone else (banners that block views etc) Can be worn/brought in any weather (t-shirts are hidden under coats/jumpers etc. Definitely a good way forward I'd say, coupled with a big push on social media to get the message out. Should be a great idea. (Love the yellow and black colours too)

Former Dingle Joey Barton, who has been on a one man mission to become the most controversial person on Twitter has now dragged Rovers into the mix, after the Rovers admin (perhaps regrettably so now) commented on one of Barton's tweets. How it started: And it continues: Apologies for the tweet spam.

Nope, just a guy who can't read

He was appointed in April 2023.

The original point was that I said we wouldn't sign 4-5 players in January and you said we could and referred back to your post from yesterday. Your post, is pure speculation and there is nothing to suggest we could receive money now, spend all said money on transfers and have money in the wage budget to pay them. It also would mean completing deals for 4/5 players, which we are generally slow at doing because it needs sign off from India. It is, undeniably, unlikely that we will make 4/5 signings before the window closes. We aren't playing footy manager here and if it was as easy as you made out in your post yesterday, then why hasn't the club done it.

I saw the post but everything in it is pure speculation, if it was that easy to get that money and sign those players (or similar), why have we not done it? You also assumed we spend all of the £5m, which we wouldn't.

Because we have no money, the wage budget is maxed out (or so we are told), we are notoriously slow/poor at getting deals over the line, the window is only open for a few more days, January is historically a poor window to do business. Did I miss anything?

Not a chance we're signing 4-5 players. Another 1 at best is all that will come through the door.

This is the most likely outcome, yep. How could they possibly? What's their problem with us?

Most fans on social media, especially Twitter, seem to think football started about 5 years ago. Our history in general on these types of platforms seems to have been erased almost entirely.

We will probably win this purely by virtue of being able to outscore them. They'll be up for this, as you'd expect from lower league opposition in the cup and they'll score a couple, just like Walsall and Cambridge did. Difficult to get too bothered about this one (obviously, want a win) when there is such a huge league game to follow. The starting 11 is a big call. Assuming Carter and Pickering are out for a bit (unknown at this stage) risking both Hyam and Wharton seems a bit mental.

Genuinely happy for him tbh. Rovers dropped the ball (when don't we) with BBD's contract/sale.

I can't for the life of me see how people aren't concerned. Looks like the manager has lost the plot and the owners aren't interested in investing anything. If we stay up this season it will be because other teams don't win enough. QPR won yesterday and we should have been beaten by Huddersfield at home. The gap is down to 9 and we can't even buy a win.

Yes, the manager should hold him accountable. That's his job.

This doesn't reflect well on JDT at all.

By hook or crook we need to bag a winner here. We absolutely need the 3 points when playing against a relegation rival. A draw not good enough.

Normal service is resumed. FFS!

1-0! Wharton. Come on Rovers!

Just seen Jackson reckons it's a back 3 with Pickering at LCB. Be interesting either way!

Could be but you'd expect Scott W to start in a back 3. Chrisene is quite versatile I believe, I can't see him shifting from the usual 4-2-3-1. Garrett and Chrisene in the wide areas I reckon.

Interesting!

How the hell did we lose to Swansea? They are absolutely shite.

His shirt is hung up in the dressing room.

Oh right I dunno. Thought we were due to play Rangers and then ended up playing someone else because Rangers dropped out.

Not sure how these things work but surely we paid City for the use of their facilities and when Rangers pulled out we played whoever we could find or lose out (assuming a small amount of money). Not sure we could charge someone to play against us when the friendly was for our benefit. Could be wrong though.
