You can see the squad’s quite thin, so if any of our senior players do come off the pitch it is a worry.’ What a place to be in when the season kicks off a week on Friday Edited July 29, 2024 by Mattyblue 9 Quote

This just goes to show what we've been reduced to as a club. Our only options are injury prone journeymen and the hope in this case Fleck can get fit..... Venkys out, nothing else matters.

Popular Post tomphil Posted July 29, 2024 Popular Post Posted July 29, 2024 Sell good players and established ones and replace with squad fillers and bodies for the sake of it and we are here again on a one way ticket to a dog fight by May. 16 Quote

Under normal circumstances he'd be one i'd have had through the door soon as he's a waste of space and probably has his eye on being fit for international commitments. Evans mk2 1 Quote

"Siggy could well be our Szmodics / BBD this season" is a line I've seen/heard a couple of times. Tough to score 20+ from the treatment table! Edited July 29, 2024 by G Somerset Rover 5 Quote
Mattyblue Posted July 29, 2024 Posted July 29, 2024 No chance even if he was available most weeks as he just doesn’t have Sammie’s drive and attitude. 2 Quote

Pretty sure that Barnes hasn't played any of pre-season for Barrow, and will apparently miss the first month or so of the season. Whitehall did sign a new contract, but not heard anything about him since. Quote

I’m guessing the swap deal is off. Are they trying to get their own back on Rovers for us flogging them Ennis? But Baker should not be a priority and swapping one of our few remaining forwards for another midfielder would be madness Edited July 29, 2024 by KentExile Quote
