  1. Of course he is! I bet he can’t believe his luck. My answer to him would be, stick the ball in the net mate and we’ll think about it
  2. These are questions that the management need to answer (not that they'd give an honest reply) Assuming the club has done forward planning (ha!) and these players were identified as targets before the window opened, because they were cheap and surplus to requirements at their clubs, why weren't they signed at the start of the window? Or were they in fact desperation signings as the club fished around for any player at the bottom of the barrel who was still available and not wanted by anyone else on the very last day?
  3. Some folk are easily pleased ☝️
  4. You know there's bound to be a problem..... none of Rovers' own making of course
  5. And therein lies the problem...... Apart from the one player with a bit of pedigree, Dennis (who is unlikely to be match fit), they're all squad players, none that you could say is a guaranteed, automatic starter who is better than what we already have and will improve the team
  6. You're not the only one. I was looking forward to going to the Hawthorns......
  7. Dennis should strengthen the team but is he match fit? The lad from Luton will be a bench warmer - I can't see with his (lack of) pedigree and record how he'd be a first pick And they're loans, meaning we're likely have to start all over again in the summer All in all, that's a poor window (again). As little money spent as possible, and will we really be that much better? Meanwhile, Sheffield United have brought in Ben Brereton-Diaz, Hamza Choudhury, Tom Cannon and Rob Holding, That's what you do when you're in a position of strength And WBA filched Adam Armstrong from Soton. Did we know he was available, did we ask?
  8. Yup, I'll be there to watch him score too It's inevitable
  9. This last minute drama is ridiculous These signings should have been sealed early today Other clubs in desperate need of players like Rovers would have done them weeks ago
  10. You’ve said this before. Really don’t see it. He’s not tough enough for English football
  11. Both players being reported close to signing on the BBC now - a trusted source. Have to say Woodrow ‘s goalscoring record doesn’t inspire. What do they see in him except a cheap shirt filler? Desperation signing
  12. Dennis Nielsen? He would be lethal in our attack
  13. Traffic jam on the M1 standstill till midnight Could only happen to Rovers
  14. Confirmed that he was a very good player 5 years ago but is always injured now?
  15. Are we sure it's Emmanuel and not his brother Les?
  16. This is heading to be the worst of all windows under this regime - and that's saying something. I know this has been said many times but it just reiterates the point that for the 3rd year (or 4th?) in a row there is clearly no desire or ambition by the club management to make the top 6. I'm not sure whether anger or resignation are the right emotions. Either way, fans (and the town) do no deserve this
  17. Our group's losing streak has to end at some point and there's no better time than Tuesday as Rovers have a reasonably good record at Loftus Road. QPR 1 Rovers 2
  18. McEvoy is a good comparison. Both great players for Rovers
  19. Szmodics didn't look anything special in his first season with us, as many noted You of course spotted a 30-goal a season player from his arrival. Well done. All hail and praise.
  20. You have to wonder why Portsmouth and Plymouth reportedly want Leonard. He’s a League 2 player at best
  21. His official name is Guere (who?) - that well known typing error The lad has scored 3 goals in 27 games which is poor but his all round game is visibly improving - but then it needed to. He's aged 27, so he's hardly in the "promising" category. What we see now could be as good as he gets
  22. We keep going on the basis our luck has to change some time. Won’t it?
  23. Maybe but they had 3 clear cut chances and could have had a pen. Don’t get me wrong we deserved it overall but those last 15 minutes were agonising to watch and we might easily have lost Anyway on to the next game and QPR away. Our group is going and we haven’t seen a win this season yet
  24. Beck should have scored, agreed, but some fans are in denial about how lucky we were not to lose that match in the last 15 minutes. Overall though we shaded it and the players deserved it too for the massive shift they put in over 90 minutes and the bad luck we’ve also suffered in some recent games
  25. Yes he did Den. Credit to him though, he’s developing well, gaining confidence, it’s obvious the coaching staff and the player himself have been working hard on his game. Total contrast to the frankly embarrassing poor player he looked not that many weeks ago
