More likely to be Chapman through the middle and Gallagher still lumbering up and down the wing to be honest.
Anyway, if he makes more than 5 starts over the season I'll be amazed.
Sadly, you'll likely be correct on both points there.
No mention of an option for another year, so if he does play well, we could end up losing him for nothing at the end of the season.

Happy that Chapman has signed a new deal. If, and its a big if, he can stay fit and get some game time it would be great to see him take Gallagher off the wing.
I'm genuinely not sure why he signed the deal though.

We need new leadership.
100%
We will never get anywhere under Venkys regime. The only way would be if they appointed a competent Chief Exec to run the club (day to day stuff etc.) They could still have final say on transfers and big decisions but the current setup is destined to fail.
Of course, 11 years in and they have never appointed one and obviously binned off the last one as soon as they got through the door.
Horrific decision that the club has been paying the price for ever since.

Just been reading on Twitter, a number of supporters are saying sell Armstrong, sell Brereton and build back.
one problem with that, Mowbray. He hasn’t a clue about building a team even if he is allowed any funds to do it. Mowbray must go!
Not a cat in hells chance I'd trust Mowbray with a decent transfer kitty to build a squad.

What will determine the expectation for Blackburn Rovers? | Lancashire Telegraph
“At the end of the day everything is about expectation,” he said. “If you’ve got a talented young team who need to grow, the expectation should be less than if you’ve spent £100m.”
Mowbray's negativity begins again in earnest. Getting his excuses in before a ball is kicked.
If there is one thing he'll be doing a lot over this summer is dampening any expectations for this season.
He's already reset "the journey" once.

I don't think the link would be genuine.
He's taken his time to get going for Rovers and we'd want more than what we paid for him, I just can't see anyone paying us enough.
It would be hugely frustrating to sell him before he's got anywhere near his best for Rovers.

If there was nothing awry, you'd think they'd just get the accounts submitted, job done.
Unless of course.....
I was wondering about this also,what benefit do they get from not submitting them until the last second? Doesn't seem like there would be (my knowledge on this subject is limited)

Fair play if you managed to get through the whole game in VR. I think my nerves would be shredded after 5mins 😂

Was looking for something to play on gamepass and installed Resident Evil 7 (largely due to the Resi evil village hype)
Its pretty messed up. Proper Texas chainsaw massacre stuff (to a point) and when the family are looking for you whilst you're trying to figure out what to do next it gets a bit tense at times!
Good game though, reckon I'm about halfway through.

Lancs live has done a write up of the Downing interview.
Players not getting picked on merit is Sunday league stuff.

Such a ridiculous statement. Based on what? We have spent more then we have received over the last few years.
We are (allegedly) about to go into a transfer embargo, the money is only going one place if we sell him.

Chileans have taken to & latched on to BB in large part because the ship that is chilean international football has been steadily sinking into mediocrity since 2015. Chile failed to qualify for the 2018 WC by the thinnest of margins. Chile's stars of its so-called "golden generation" no longer shine. There is no new blood or truly talented young players. The fillers aiding Alexis Sánchez in attack have sucked. And along comes this giant piece of stiff English wood. So Chileans have clung to it as you would to avoid drowning.
I think chileans have gone off the rails and over inflated BB's potential, which is unfair to him. They dont know how mediocre he's been in the Championship and have pinned too many of their hopes on this shiney new object but such is the desperation of the chilean fan. Which is why chile's uruguayan coach Lasarte has attempted to temper expectations and warned fans BB still has a long learning curve in front of him.
Don't worry he's in good hands here..........oh no wait, he's not, Mowbray is a dreadful manager.

West Brom close to appointing the Barnsley manager after meeting the compensation clause in his contract.

Scores on his debut! Great goal as well.

BB makes his full Chilean debut!
Forget the euros, this is the story of the summer.

Is London such a big attraction these days?.
Why move to another Championship club when he got the chance of PL club. Think Southampton or Brighton or Norwich would be idea club for him.
On Fulham, we have no idea who the manager or whether most of the squad will be there. Already seen Cairney and Adarabioyo linked with moves away.
A replacement for Armstrong is a must. Yates seems to be the one they want.
We also need money by the looks to stave off FFP.
If we get £10m for Arma it won't all be reinvested in the squad.
Free transfers and less than £500k signings is where we will be looking this summer, even with an Arma sale.

Its 40% after the 3 million fee we paid I imagine. So if we were offer 15 million and accept it, Newcastle would get 4.8 million and we would have 10.2 million to buy a replacement and improve the squad. #
If Yates is the one Mowbray and Rovers recruitment staff has recommend as a replacement for Armstrong then fair enough. I haven't seen enough of him to comment on the player. Only seen the playoff final which he played in
I would think that Armstrong, Gallagher and Dack are our 3 biggest wage earners at the club.
Well we did recuse him from a awful spell at Bolton where he wasn't played properly and we signed him and he helps us to promotion and then kick on the last season and half when he was moved up front and scored goals for fun.
Off the clubs that are rumours to be interested which one would you say would get the best out of Armstrong? (Southampton, Fulham, West Ham, Norwich, Everton have been linked)
Come on, even you know that money would not be reinvested into the squad.

Just another balls up in a monumental long list of balls ups.
I genuinely think we're going down next season.
Don't think anyone is getting a points deduction to bail us out either (Derby??)
Relegation battle is inevitable at the moment and if we can only sign free transfers or loans we will very likely be going down because having Mowbray as manager is starting us off with a severe handicap.

So much to look forward to for next season...
Well that's just utterly depressing.
We now have to flog AA for a knockdown price because we have left ourselves in a terrible bargaining position and now we are desperate for cash otherwise we are going to be embargoed.
Just out of interest why are the EFL not giving any leeway to clubs as none of them have had matchday revenue for so long?

Why wouldn't he just say who it is if he knows?
Much easier to backtrack later, if he gives no names now.
And also, he's probably making it up.

erm... Transfer Embargo.
Once the accounts are published the cat will be out it's bag.
Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if we are under an embargo and the club are just keeping quiet until they can't possibly hide it any longer.

Solid international debut for BB to be fair.

It would be random, even for Venkys, to leave him in place from the end of the season until now, just to bin him off as pre season started.
