Dingles 1 up already as well, just to compound our misery

1 down already. We aren't great at turning games around. Could be a long afternoon.

Bloody hell, he's injured as well! Not many options if things aren't working today.

Classic Rovers, follow up a couple of good wins with a loss against a poor team. Fully expect us to bottle this, especially as we're not far off the top 6. -----------------Wahlstedt Brittain----Hill-----Carter----Pickering ------------Tronstad---Wharton Moran--------Szmodics-----Sigurdsson ---------------------Leonard Down to the bare bones is an understatement, probably a full bench of academy lads.

How long is Dolan out for?

Yes Harry!!!

I'm ready...... As always football.... .....kick me in the nuts

FFS! Don't throw this away!

Yep, just feels like we are waiting for a goal to go in for Birmingham now. Keep making mistakes at the back and we'll get punished soon enough.

Birmingham look to have us figured out already. If JDT is out thought by Rooney, then good help us all

Dolan off Leonard on

We certainly take some insane risks at the back That's twice already we've given them a chance

Yeah, not sure how nothing was given for that.

Trav in at RB for Scotty W but otherwise unchanged.

I was thinking about Rovers whilst cycling home from work tonight and I got the feeling that Garrett would start tomorrow in the 10 role behind Szmodics. I like Garrett and think he could develop into a useful player for us. Not sure why JDT is trying to turn him into an attacker but your suggestion of him not being quite good enough technically as one of the holding mids seems like a fairly logical conclusion tbh.

Moran! 0-2

Scotty!!! Get in!

You couldn't make this up. So Gallagher and Ennis are just permanently crocked now? Let's hope Leonard hits some form.

Matches?

Yeah I saw Eddie Howe mention signing Ruben Neves on loan in January, a player that moved to Saudi for £55m and they'll sign him up for basically nothing. They also managed to balance the books nicely with the £30m sale of St Maximin to a Saudi club previously. Not saying that was an inflated price, more that those kind of deals were able to happen whenever they needed them.

Do we need to pay a fee? I can't remember the situation surrounding his contract/club. I thought GB was on record saying we already had a deal in place to sign him up for the long term?

Not sure what happened there, I think Chaddy said that, not me.

He won't come back here, I'm sure there would be more ambitious Championship clubs that would be happy to take him. He might as well join a promotion/play off push, rather than a mid to lower table battle.

Will it just be Everton that get punished with a points deduction? Surely they have now set the precedent and other clubs will follow. Man City and Chelsea are the most obvious candidates but it just feels like they will both get away with it. Newcastle? Although I feel like they sold a player or 2 to comply, plus I'm sure there would be a brown envelope being passed over from there owners to avoid any real punishment, if they have breached the rules of course. Forest also spent a lot of money the other season, not sure if they should be a bit concerned?
