Those people posted don't post idle gossip 

We can believe what we want, interesting that you didn't comment on the gossip the other day that Sorba Thomas is not a popular member of the squad.

But either way, the owners didn't sack Mowbray regardless of results, that was my point.

Maybe it suggests, contrary to the narrative espoused in many quarters, that we actually are a big fish in this league and one which Sky can see commercial value in putting us on tv so often now they don't have their precious Leeds, Derby and Fulham to exploit.

That's exactly how I see it. We always have been a big fish in this Division, yet for some reason certain former managers, members of the hierarchy and some of our own fans like to think of us as a small club fortunate to be competing at this level.

I totally understand the arguments about the number of televised games from a season ticket and attendance point of view. However, when looking at Sky putting us on so much, in isolation, it points towards the club moving in the right direction.

Something special is happening at Rovers and Sky and other media sources are sensing it too. I see it as a good thing that they want to show our games so much, especially at the business end of the season. After being the forgotten club for so long, I view this as Rovers finally waking up and the likes of Sky cottoning on to that being the case.

Where's that come from?

Find it very odd that we are in the strongest position in 10 years and suddenly rumours of JDT and GB not speaking have sprung up, and now ST not being a popular member of the team is a thing.

I’ll repeat this for your benefit. I bumped into a guy I’ve never met before last Friday. We got to talking about football. He found out I was a Rovers fan. He’s related to a fringe player who’s been on the bench for the first team this season. No names, take it or leave it.

The lad reckons Thomas is a “ big I am “ - never stops talking about how he went to the World Cup etc. Given he was a part time pro not long ago his attitude has ruffled a few feathers at Ewood.

Listening to him in interviews he does come across like has a bit of an arrogant streak, which of course, isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

But at the end of the day he’s here for another couple of months (at most) and it doesn’t look as if he’s upsetting the apple cart, so as long as he keeps providing those assists I don’t particularly care how much of an arse he is.

Says quite a bit about the fringe player, his chatterbox relative and anyone with ruffled feathers.

Can’t help but feel for Ryan Nyambe. Had a contract here on the table. Instead he’s been warming a bench, not getting paid, and will be without a club in the summer. Hope he’s sacked his agent.
