The club is run by idiots, even more so if they are picking Hedges as a left centre back over Pickering due to wanting to get him sold.

They clearly don't want the scrutiny over why they are sending the money over to the UK, you can only imagine its because in the past its not all actually come to Rovers.

Agreed, this was the ideal time for him to have a dig at the Hyam sale and he passed it up.

Derby looked the best side to come to ewood so far this season. Would love to have a team like that, battled for everything, great in the air and defensively rock solid. We on the other hand were abysmal first half and then Derby just let us have it second and we created next to nothing. Set pieces are atrocious we had what felt like endless corners, free kicks and throw ins all hitting the first man. We are in big trouble still despite a few recant wins. Just an overall lack of quality or depth in the squad and a manager who isn’t good enough. Ryan Hedges as a centre half when you have 3 defenders on the bench is just ridiculous. Gudjohnsen and Henrikson totally anonymous may as well have not been on the pitch. Couldn’t have picked a MotM all poor today.

Is the white kit legit or just some internet rumour to wind people up?

Oddly, someone at the club got close to what I was expecting for the anniversary shirt albeit in polo form...

Is the white shirt definitely confirmed as it doesn't appear to be on sale in the club shop? https://www.roverstore.co.uk/150th-anniversary-collection/150th-anniversary-co/

I thought the leak was going to be a wind up, i shouldn't have been surprised that the administration could monumentally cock up something which was an amazing opportunity. I am sure anyone alive to buy one has only ever seen rovers play in blue and white. You could ask 10,000 fans what colour it should have been and they all would have said blue and white.

You think he always planned to play a back 3 and 2 up front but was just waiting all this time for Cantwell to get injured to deploy it?

I've said it the last few meetings but someone needs to record these forum sessions and we can all cut through the bullshit.

Agree with others in that since a move to 3 at the back we look much more comfortable and he seems to have stumbled into his best formation rather than it being by design. However 3 wins on the bounce has given me hope we will at least put up a fight to stay in the league as it looked like we were going out with a whimper 2 weeks ago. Outside of this managerial ability the squad at his disposal is as poor as it's been in years so when the injuries bite it could quickly go downhill again.

Great result, only caught the second half and looked a scrappy affair. Never expected 3 on the bounce a few games back! Fair play to the players and staff keep it up.

Maybe it's just me but we always seem to play these midweek away and lose. But confidence will be high after a great away performance where we have generally looked better than we do at home. Bristol 2-2 Rovers

Gradually becoming one of our star players with Cantwell and Abeiosu. Does anyone know when his contract is up as be a shame to lose him next summer if going into his last 12 months?

Big win should have more. Credit to all players and manager well deserved and played like a team that should be up the other end of the table.
