We lost and conceded three......................that is the stark bottom line.

YES! IMO, failure to be realistic (you don't shop at Harrods and expect Home Bargains' prices), failure to be persuasive, failure to close the deal - there are a number of reasons, I think our recruitment process is an absolute shambles and indefensible.

I said on a number of occasions, weeks ago, that, IMO, our budget was to realise / save £15 to £20million in transfer dealings / wages. I've seen nor heard anything which makes me think otherwise. All we await is a couple of 'big' departures and my money is on Armstrong being first out the door.

Add to that the, IMO, the insignificance of our goalie coach Benson!

Mowbray in LT: Jackanory, jackanory, jackanory..................... https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/18711672.rovers-transfer-latest-european-defender-deal-collapses/ Some real pearlers in there. Despair, despair, despair.

IMO, a Premier League bullsh!tter. Didn't see any challenge from Bayes at all - think you could pull any 16 year old off the street to do what Bayes does. IMO, a waste of space as a journalist.

Totally in agreement with you. Based upon my experience and knowledge of fans who sit there, think there will be many in JW Upper who feel the same. I thinks it's crass management which will alienate hundreds of fans at a minimum and when fans like yourself feel that way then the alarm bells at Ewood should well and truly be screeching.

Sat in JW Upper since built. Waggott can feck off if he thinks I'd even contemplate sitting anywhere else. I think Waggott is an incompetent imbecile who is way out of his depth as CEO of Rovers.

With the money, IMO, more likely saving V's having to cough up yet another £multi million share issue..............................!!!

I don't think he would be the first player 'turned off' by Mowbray just as Bauer apparently was last summer.

Sadly, any 'sell on' clause receipts will, IMO, be used to help fill that ever growing black hole.

Got a feeling the lad has only 12 months to run on his contract and City wont want to lose him for next to nothing given he will still be under 24 (just) next summer. City would be entitled to compensation for training and development which can be far removed from a player's perceived market value which in such cases is irrelevant.

Understand City only interested in a permanent deal and would be about £4million plus 25% sell on profit.

IMO, shambolic. I could not operate under those terms - think Mowbray needs to show some b@lls and walk and sue for constructive dismissal.

If I was Mulgrew, I'd be sorely tempted to keep myself fit at Brockhall and take the dosh - just like Smallwood. Bugger outposts like Portsmouth. Don't blame the player but, IMO, the incompetent Mowbray and Waggott who bollocksed the contract.

Boring stuff! Pub or cut the lawn...hmmm

Think we'll need another ball throwing on - only way we'll get a kick!

I'm hoping to win the £20million lottery jackpot tonight. I think my hope has a better chance of being realised........................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Abandon all hope ye who enter here !!! IMO, sums up Rovers to a tee under Waggott and Mowbray. Will the last person out of Brockhall and Ewood turn off the lights.

Really!?!?: Koninklijke Atletiek Associatie Gent, often simply known as Ghent or by their nickname De Buffalo's, is a Belgian sports club, based in the city of Ghent, East Flanders.

Nope, a little Italian number that lingers on the palate!

Stictly speaking it's Ghent! Apologies, the red wine must be over fueling my fingers!

If you try and fail then no one can criticise you if you've been decisive and acted with the best intentions. We only need players who REALLY want to be at the club. If the lad didn't want it weeks ago, we could and should moved on to the next target.

B0ll0cks. It's called leadership and leading by example. I'm pretty sure Waggott and Mowbray would rocket in the fans' esteem if they did what I suggested.
