Saxo slipped the net again ? 

Nah, I keep a regular eye on all new posters, but none of them fit his Modus Operandi. In posting frequency or posting style (i.e. never stopping).

I got this!

Will you come out and say you were wrong if he doesn't leave?

Got that wrong!

Must say the humble pie is tasty and I'm happy that we still have Lenihan......and Mulgrew and Graham. Hell, even Evans as I'm in an ok mood.

Turned out to be a reasonable window for us and my thanks to Google and Wiki without whom I would have been totally lost on just about all our new signings.

TM has his squad so let's see if he can get them to do it on his favoured 'grass'.

Promo hoped for as I want a real game v Dingles next season in the Champ., and I so want that pile of excretement down.

Fair play. 

I agree with all of that. Have to say it was a good window. Pity our best window since those f######s took over is in League 1,but what can be done only bounce back

Rovers interested in David Ajiboye.

Another midfielder. Just what we need

[Norbert Rassragr]

Tried to look him up, and he seems to play in every position. Sky sports says he's a defender, then he's a right winger on another, then a forward. He could be a regenerated Paul Warhurst.

[JacknOry]

Very young at 18 - So not sure if it somebody straight for the team. I read he is a winger.

I wish.

This could go in various threads, but I'll plump it here, and let it settle in like the bad smell it is;

Any normal owner and I'm thinking someone like mike Ashley would make sure they put you back and quickly. I mean paying 10 million a year to underwrite losses year on in doesn't make sense when they could have pumped in some more and built a team capable of championship promotion and back to the PL to help market there initial uk business market aims (venkys xpres).

A team with Cairney, Rhodes, Gestede, Hanley and Duffy with Marshall etc just needed a bit more.

“...and incredibly, Venkys are still the owners.”

That could be Rovers’ club motto. It’s like an epitaph without a death.

It needed Mick Mcarthy or Warnock. Simple as that.

Yep, a proper manager would have pushed that team into the playoffs. Bowyer was a good man, but a work-in-progress at a time when we needed the finished article.

We should have got one of them in LONG before Bowyer. It should have happened the minute relegation was confirmed. If they had have done it instead of appointing Berg or even Appleton it might not have been too late.

Well-deserved. He's been excellent ever since Mowbray came to the club.

[Dreams of 1995]

Tying Bennett down is a very good move. With rumours of QPR swirling in summer I had it in my head we'd have a battle to keep him come Jan.

[Butty]

Great news about Bennett. Good player and a top professional. Always first too come over and thank the fans after games too, love him.

Didn’t he sit with the fans one time, when he couldn’t play due to injury?

Is it true Mike Rigg is now scouting for us?

Yes, confirmed in consultation meeting tonight. He's here on a short term contract.
