IMV, Orr is so poor it's untrue.

Marcuss Olsson - when supporters talk about seeing a 'few nice touches', just means the player is sh1te. Didn't show one thing at City that you could hang any hope on.

As for Modeste, like the comparison of a poor man's MBD.

In reality, under Kean, the club, and I say that deliberately, has made one decent signing and that is Yak and, allegedly, that was down to Zhavi !

IMO, the rest range from utter dross (the majority) to distnctly average (such as Formica).

We are in an awful mess and to be honest, as each day goes by and with increasing bullsh1t from Kean, I care less and less about Rovers in particular and football in general.

IF, that's a big IF we stay up, surely we'll need to buy another right back in summer. Orr cannot be anything other that short term. The signing epitomises everything wrong at the club.

We'd probably buy somebody worse.

From what Joey Barton used to say on twitter Orr is a bit of a 'character' to use that horrid term and a good voice in the dressing room. He may not be the best right back but I'm happy to take a trier at this stage who puts effort in. The league this season won't be won and lost on quality alone, the standard is pretty poor.

Just hope we don't end up booing him.

Modeste I'm less concerned about as long as the Yak doesn't get injured.

we can field the following team,

Orr.........dann...........hanley.......anderson

dunn.......grella.......petrovic.........pedersen

...............modeste...rochina..............

looking at that makes me feel queezy to say the least, by the end of the season we may well look back on 22% posession as the good old days. f'ing criminal the quality bar the yak signed under venkys.

Orr looks everybit a lower league journeyman, lacks everything and stood out like a sore thumb along with dann who is not brave/solid/ or special and the opposite of everything samba was who at times was a one man defence first to everything. Can anyone envisage singing the praises of orr and dann in the future.

He's worse than Mame Diouf. Mame Diouf had bags of pace. Modeste is not quick. Not strong. Looks a bit uncoordinated. Mame Diouf also more skillful than Modeste. Only thing in common is that neither can score. But the Lord's truth is we are a VERY low income team because of our gates. We only stayed afloat by flogging our best players to pay average prem wages on average Championship match income. We also ran up debt. What is our debt-turnover ratio? If it was pre-Samba 20/55m this might be ok. But when your income falls to £15m

In the Championship, it's not acceptable to Barclays.

Thought Orr played really well yesterday, looked a better right back than chimbonda or jacobsen, I prefered Salgado given cover in an organised team.

But with Keans lack of organisation I think he has done well and yesterday was his best performance so far, hopefully he can mantain that level.

general consensus from the people sat around me was that he was having a good game, and that was before he put in that cross.

I gave a lift after the last home game to some QPR fans and they rated him but thought that injury problems were the reason for his departure. Looking at his stats though up until this season he has had seven seasons as a regular starter at his previous clubs.

He was very good in the second half yesterday. He wasn't really tested at all, but he joined in well going forward and did well to assist the equaliser.

I still think he'll be a problem when asked to defend a lot though.
