Mods!!!

Any chance of a laughing emoji to go with the 👍 👎 

Some little crackers being posted today 😄

Afraid not. We got rid of it before, as people were using it to troll each other….

To rub salt in the wounds, BBD scored 2 for Sheffield United on Saturday. Just imagine BBD still here  with Sam Szchmodics backing him up. We would definitely be going for the top 6. Hopefully we can remain in the Championship, then John Eustace can build his own team in the Summer with some decent goalscorers signed, the main ingredient missing from the Rovers team this Season. I know we have Sam Szchmodics, but you cannot but all the burden on one player.

That’s what we’ve done, the last few seasons, tbf.

Dack, Armstrong, then BBD and now Szmodics.

I know it's all on them, I'd have expected better from you.

Does that therefore mean that Singh/ Shaw/ Agnew/ Hunt /Senior/ Silk/Waggott/Broughton et al should be left alone and get a free ride?

These people are still actually meant to have jobs at the end of the day. - Whilst it's ultimately the owners overall responsibility is it their fault in the first instance that Singh comes up with a brainwave to sign a load of Portugeezers or Shaw fucks up Berg's departure or Waggott tries to repeat what he tried to do at Coventry and sell the training ground or Broughton as DOF oversees multiple transfer cock ups or Broughton and Waggott bring in players that aren't up to scratch and in some instances aren't even fit enough to play?

But if you spend more time criticising people that Venky’s employ and not Venky’s themselves, then it stands to reason that people will think you consider the employees more of a problem….

So in your eyes Broughton/Waggott/anyone else working at the Club gets a free pass and can perform as badly as they want?

They obviously don’t, but you seem very quick to blame the above, but criticise the owners a lot less, when they employ them all?

Despite your attempt to be witty, he was actually injured. Served his 1 match ban last match  

Thought he got a 3x game ban for a straight red, tbf. Always happy to be proven wrong!

Why didn´t McFadzean play today? Wasn´t even on the bench?

There’s this thing called suspension.

8 losses, a win and 2 draws (against Rotherham and Hudderfield at home) in JDTs last 11 matches.

We were in freefall. 

We’ve still not won under his replacement.

ICYMI.

We do need a win at Sunderland now.

Spoiler alert: we won’t.

Some of you really baffle me.

He's constantly our out ball. I'd love a left footed Brittain to play LB. 

I don’t know what you see in him, I think he’s dreadful tbf.

Onside again, but apparently not?

Officiating in this league is appalling.

If we don’t score that, we might as well go home tbf.

It’ll be especially painful if that rubbish goal proves to be the winner. 

Come on, Tomasson had to go 

Still awaiting that first win under Eustace?

Still really unsure why that last goal was chalked off for us.
Seemed fairly legit to me.

Thought when we got a new manager, we were meant to get a ‘new manager bounce’, but we haven’t won under him yet. But apparently it’s a good thing we got rid of his predecessor. 
What a time to be alive.

To quote Steve Coogan ‘this is liquid football’.
But it actually isn’t, is it?

We’ll draw our way to safety lads, don’t worry about it. If we go down, JDT is the villain, Eustace has had the international break with the lads on the training pitch, we’ll be fine.

The narrative has already shifted to blame JDT and absolve the owners and our players that are weak as piss obviously aren’t to blame at all. Relax…

Hope everyone that bigged up Pears is proud of themselves.

Lad’s absolutely shite, I’m afraid.

Appreciate addiction isn’t simple, but Christ, you’d hope at least someone was on him 24/7 after the ban in Italy, to stop him doing the exact same over here!

Broughton actually said another deal nearly happened but didn't. He name checked our CEO as agreeing the deal with a club where he has contacts. PerkS would and that to the catalogue of errors and undermining which caused Tomasson to leave. Broughton must have felt usurped undermined too with that and the Fleck deal.

Not shooting the messenger here, but how many deals do we nearly get over the line, but ultimately don’t? Must be a record, I swear!

Probably defensively but attack wise we are stacked

Maybe, but not at centre forward. There’s a huge drop off in quality from Kane to Toney and Watkins (and I rate them both, tbf).

This was the photo I was thinking of. He did all the mod designer gear a few years back and without having watched the programme that Tyrone referred to, I hope he explained that 'being a mod' is about more than just clothes and music. And @K-Hod I've been a bald mod for 40 years matey 🙂

Bald and proud, over here too! 🤝.

So it was more of a skinhead and skrewdriver t-shirt then?

Haha, I know that he’s fairly heavily tattooed these days, so maybe that’s what OJF is alluding to?

(Though granted, I’m not sure what the mod stance is on tattoos in fairness).

Pretty hard to keep up the mod trim, with a strong case of male pattern baldness 🙂.

As ever with England, if you go beyond our strongest XI, there is a drop off in quality.

I’d back our strongest team to give anyone a game, just there are some players we really cannot do without.

I've had plenty to say about them since the financial landscape changed. You along with my old mate roversfan99 just choose to disregard it.

To be fair, if you spend more time slagging off their employees, then it stands to reason that people will think you’ve more of a problem with them, than the owners themselves.

Imagine being a club in the second tier of English football and charging £47 for tickets… Absolutely obscene.

A Leeds fan at work was saying, they try to price out away fans, so they can justify reducing allocations and then sell them to home fans. Proper dick move.
