Look at @Biz post. 

Mowbray and Waggott attending supporters days and interaction is a big plus for me. Don't even mention Kean at all. Waggott was talking to fans would you have seen some previous boardroom people doing that under Kean days here? 

Yes you saying you trust Mowbray so do it then and stop questioning whether we have money to spend , cos Mowbray and Waggott have said they have. They signing good players for the right fees

I have seen and replied to Biz, who made some constructive points.

Like it or lump it, I said even Kean got involved in terms of interaction, albeit to much deserved abuse, as seen at that infamous open training session. That sort of interaction has always been there. We've had various Q&A's with various people over the years, managers, new staff, people like Cheston and Senior I think (could be mistaken) but its always had a feeling of deckchairs on the titanic, during our slide anyway, because the problem always was and will be at the top; the owners. For all the authority and promises that are given to those below, at the moment Waggott and Mowbray, theres always a chance that Venkys will renege on these promises, and its somethign you seem to be struggling to get your head around.

I never in any point of that post suggested that we have no money. I have said previously that I dont trust the owners who have history of whipping away the carpet out from under the managers feet. Until the money is spent, theres always a chance that Venkys will change their mind and withdraw funding. Mowbray may be under the impression that he has money, ive never said he is lying or he doesnt think that, and im sure he will, point being theres always a chance that the OWNERS will let us down, not anyone else. All that said, I never mentioned any of that so I've no idea why you keep randomly bringing it up.

The thing is, you was the same in terms of Senior, constantly defending him, blowing smoke up his backside, then we went down, he slipped out the back door.

Im asking for tangible reasons to praise solely Waggott and youve yet to convince me. That said, if Mowbray is happy with him then im fine with him too.

Im not saying Waggott is doing a bad job or anything like that.

Yes we have had various Q and A with different people. I always like Bowyer and the way he spoken. I really enjoying Mowbray the same way. 

With Waggott and Mowbray going to India this summer indicant to me that the owners trust them and finally running the club properly with Chief executive and Finance director with Manager under that. 

I spoken to Senior a number of times via emails and he spoke a lot of sense.

How did Waggott get on lobbing the FA about our women’s team being given a league place? It was one of the few plusses But was never reported (except via @Tom) on here and has seems to have died a death.

Yes he did I believe. think @only2garners would be the best one to ask tho.

We got rejected didn't we?

[Trinidad Rover]

Chapman on the bench for Middlesbrough. Can’t see us signing him at this stage, shame, he has huge potential.

Mind you, his agent is probably Trump/Conning/Anderson. Avoid.

I see Harry Chapman is on the bench for Boro.

[CraigF]

I think there will be a few outgoings and incomings at all levels in the next few days. Some surprising results which probably will cause some clubs to panic and splash the cash. Unlucky about the last min equaliser today but hopefully Rovers can remain in a strong negotiating position and sign some of his ‘a’ or ‘b’ lists for decent amount, similar with Armstrong. 

Still think Patrick Roberts (loan) and Hugill (transfer) are targets but who knows what players we are targetting?

Feel as if Nuttall and Travis will be loaned out, along with Fisher. 

[G Somerset Rover]

Would be a big mistake to loan Travis out, but we urgently need an out and out striker in the Graham mould or it will be a long season with DG only able to last 60 odd minutes each week. Big week - let’s hope TM gets his targets.

I agree on the Graham mould. Nuttall looked a little lost and his mistake when he could have headed it into the path of Palmer but headed it backwards which resulted in that Edwards chance. 

A season on loan somewhere could be beneficial for him to learn the game. I believe Travis could benefit more playing week in week out. Similar to Lenihan to gain experience rather than being a back up. 

We do need a winger which can stretch teams, someone like Chapman but with more experience of the rigours of the league. 

[Ewood Ace]

As a back up to Graham I wouldn't mind us taking a punt on Christian Doidge similar type of player to Graham, scoring goals for fun in league 2 and valued at £750K

[blondie]

The bar has been set today. Edwards and Harrison a handful. To sign players as good or better will be an achievement.

Boy have I missed a good agent thead

[RevidgeBlue]

The agent from Arena Sports Management who wangled contracts for Conway and Caddis must be a bloody good 'un.

Any further news on Armstrong?

Harrison is hardly quality, heard he wasn’t that great. Edwards is a good player though. Hope we are in for Maddison.

We’ll probably get an #agentbenno photo call some time on Monday afternoon. These things need to be stage managed properly you know.
