That *was* the January Window

[Mike E]

Get to the QPR game. Tell Venkys how you feel.

Feel tomorrow really could be a key moment, if after this the Wharton sale goes through and no money is spent you would struggle to find anyone who doesn’t think it’s a signpost for a slow and painful demise into oblivion.

Time for protests will be back, and the appetite to go with it

If this happens I think JDT walks.

I dunno, I think you could find a few who think it's a signpost for a rapid and painful demise into oblivion.

If we didn’t want to spend the money then fine, but don’t put the poor lad on a trans Atlantic flight just to pull the rug out from under him mid air! 

Shocking form from Rovers. Ashamed to be an associated with the Rovers if this is true!

 

Saved Wednesday a few quid since hers already cross Atlantic. 

[Darwen Rover 007]

This is the final straw for me... Will know for definite by this time tomorrow night

Of course not. Broughton might not be perfect but has nothing to gain by derailing deals. He will be doing the best he can with an impossible situation working for charlatans and liars.

As with O'Brien he will have been led to believe that funds are being made available, he will have done the hard work in getting the deal ready and the player on board and then when it comes to parting with the cash the owners fail to deliver.

Each and every time.

Of course nobody employed by Rovers is ever going to admit this because if they did they'd be out of a job and probably not employed elsewhere in football, but anyone thinking logically about this knows where the blame lies.

It makes no sense for Broughton to line it up then scupper it, just as it made no sense last January supposedly for the Club Secretary to suffer temporary amnesia and forget how to do his job.

It's just lies, bullshit and smoke and mirrors aimed at shielding the Indians from any blame for what are their decisions.

By the time this is over the vultures will have picked us clean...Brockhall gone...Academy gone...any assets gone...all heading towards league 2...shameful

Difficult to see any other outcome, especially if we were lining deals up and our stupid owners/board have pulled the rug from under everyone.

Could even see GB going with him.

If this is accurate then I can’t really see how JDTs position as manager is tenable. 
I’d be amazed if he’s still manager beyond the weekend. 

JDT’s position is tenable as his primary job is to coach the team.

Broughtons is untenable as he simply cannot do the job he has been brought in for if funds have been pulled from under him. For his reputation in the game he either needs to lay the blame elsewhere or quit. (Presuming the stories about no transfers with fees turns out to be correct).

That makes it more laughable, we’ve paid for a cross Atlantic flight for a player to sign with a relegation rival.

I didn’t think it could get worse after last January, but this tops it.

There will still be morons who'll use the delay in the Wharton deal to say Venkys are great. People are that dense and trusting.

Hope so to be fair, I would, we need to embarrass the club further if it comes to pass 

Anger shouldn’t be aimed at anyone other than the owners, go for the big fish now 

[matt83]

What this will do is make any self respecting professional footballer to think twice about even entering into preliminary negotiations if rovers come knocking.

The Venkys are useless beyond belief. It’s always their fault but arguably the most humiliating sagas have come during swag/the eggs watch. Useless one and all.

Its a complete shitshow. Chickens with their heads cut off level stuff (pun intended).

I don't buy that, what possible incentive in any scenario is there for Venkys to cancel all incomings AND outgoings?

Hardly any followers and no source, someone just regurgitating the tweet about us cancelling incomings

I’m done.

If it has been pulled by the owners (again?) you're right.

Let's see if he walks then.

[Oldgregg86]

Everyone is trying to phone the Venky’s for authorisation but he’s still in the booth with akon laying down a dis track 

[JHRover]

I think JDT resigning now, rather than after the season is done, is the only way of a very loud and public message getting sent to the owners and the boardroom, and people waking up to what is going on here.

Anything else just isn't going to cut it. We can moan and groan but for Waggott and the Indians it will be business as usual and a job well done, unless JDT causes them a big problem by walking and shining the spotlight on them.

Adam has just been announced as a  Crystal Palace by Fab.

How the fuck are we supposed to go to sleep with all this going on?!!!
