  1. That’s absolute trash as well! The lad had a thigh problem hence he hasn’t been fit to fully train and has been undergoing rehab and a mini pre season to catch up. Looking at him on Saturday showed he was as lean as a butchers dog and nowt like you suggest but then again……,,
  2. There is some nonsense written about Travis. If he wasn’t in JDTs plans he would not be captain of the team that would have been passed to another player. Yesterday was a classic game from him nasty in the tackle winding players up setting up a goal and getting a booking😅
  3. What negatives can we as fans take from todays game? Absolutely none! It was absolutely solid across the pitch even though wba had speed and big lads Rovers stood their ground worked hard and played to a system which worked well. Big shout on Leonard and Markanday who were both superb and deserved their goals. Travis led by example and was supported well through the middle. Happy with the points we move on to Rotherham
  4. then clearly your presumption/assumption and conclusions are wrong. Some changes have been implemented, others are progressing and there have been a lot of restructuring behind he scenes. There are huge steps still to be taken, some easy wins and some not so. At this time, I suspect that Rovers are prioritising the current issues, whatever they are, before anything else. My main gripe of better communication - and its the same as many fans - needs serious attention something SW fails to realise or understand!
  5. read JDT's comments, this years squad is even more stretched than last season. Rovers young ones are not experienced enough to last a full season especially in the Championship. Cash flow issues, low crowds, minimal sponsorship deals whilst overall costs increase mean real monetary problems meaning administration is a reality looming.
  6. Some of you have misperception on my view of SW, for clarity there isn’t nor has there never been any sort of relationship, he isn’t my friend, he isn’t a confidante all he is is the CEO of the club who I have spoken with and exchanged views with. Unless you know me then you have absolutely not a fucking clue as to my view of him or our club owners!
  7. At this moment we are staring down the relegation gun barrel. Not because of the squad depth, it will be as a result of administration!
  8. 0-4 all the problems come home to roost just like they did when Norwich battered us first game of the season a few years ago. The changes have to start now, Waggot out, Venkys leave and let people with business sense run the club
  9. Good effort from all concerned in organising the day👍👍
  10. Based on me watching the 2 games in full - he ran up and down the pitch all game and gave it all compared to some of the players ! Twaddles was the shite you were told and which you the posted as gospel 😅
  11. He has moved up a gear and is neither overweight or unfit, he made the goals set for him by the club fitness wise he has a minor injury and wasn’t to be risked. JRC was the fittest player out on show yesterday which again debunks the info you were given!
  12. new shirt is actually very smart when its on - impressed aside of the logo
  13. I found it much simpler to do a lot of research and then speak to him. You give him options to give answers and then challenge him with the result of your research only then do you get a proper answer!
  14. You are misguided with this view - Rovers have steadily seen more supporters from the Muslim community coming to watch games and they are well into Rovers. It’s great to see and we have a few who sit behind us and they enjoy the football and engage with other fans so long may it continue . It’s great to see that bigotry and racial hatred is not a thing at Ewood these days
  15. Moving on from this I actually wrote to Rovers about the fan zone and how it can be completely improved to give the fan zone a much better experience. It also included how ti improve food and drink and I used the Bolton fan zone as an example. At BWFC the fan zone is very well organised and well attended. Various food options, plenty of drink options, entertainment and football screens a plenty and it is superbly managed. When I last visited there was over 1000 people in there with plenty of standing and seating and the whole experience was great BUT fan orientated. At Ewood, there is great scope to increase the fan zone area. Move the bars to the fencing adjacent to the river, place extra covering and seating where the original bar is, allow various food options, sell bottled beer and wine, have more tv/entertainment and so on. Sadly, nothing has come back since which epitomises the current senior management team
  16. Ignorant fools ? Not sure about that ! There have been changes, there are further changes happening now and no doubt will do so in the future ! My own personal gripe is that Rovers and SW still haven’t grasped how to communicate with the fan base and this is probably why there are changes behind the scene around this particular topic. Someone also asked if I think SW is a competent CEO well in short I don’t and never have even though I understand the operating conditions he is still way off the shortfalls I highlighted to him but then again I am not a CEO just a mere concerned fan
  17. I say kudos to the fans who go, the fans who take the notes etc. Within the minutes it tells you the next meeting, there is a name, email and contact number so I say to those demanding answers, get down to the meeting or alternatively do as the minutes say and then you might get an answer deserving of your whinge🤫
  18. Utter shite - total failure ??? it’s a B - progression with an element of stability and bringing the academy players though who have done themselves and the club proud !
  19. The issues around BBD are evident. Those saying we should have sold him may take into consideration that as far as I am aware we only had one "official" bid for him and none were from an English based club, the likes of Fulham, Leeds and Everton never actually materialised into concrete figures. On his current form, he wont last long in Spain, no skill on the ground where it will be required and the defenders in that league do not take prisoners!
  20. The lad just cannot stand on his feet today maybe a change of boots might help
  21. Hedges at least is direct his final ball and touch need improving Luton are there for the taking players don’t want to get injured due to the play offs rovers need killer instinct
  22. Hedges at least is direct his final ball and touch need improving Luton are there for the taking players don’t want to get injured due to the play offs rovers need killer instinct
  23. Anyone advocating Dolan remains on the pitch is drunk drugged or just deluded he has been awful. Thomas on to be more direct Luton are no better than us we just need that one goal and it’s lift off
