  1. It’s hard to avoid thinking that the result might have more to do with what odds fat ‘Barry’ Rao might be able to get on a home win with his local Indian bookie.
  2. “……..say, if you’re glad we’ve got Gueye” with apologies to Tom Robinson
  3. For ‘exits’ read CV….
  4. I’d like to ‘mute’ George Boeteng - can I moot Serena Weigman as an actual manager with an exits of winning rather than a Dutch plant-pot??
  5. In the style of the 1930’s Daily Mirror cartoon strip….Waggot trying to persuade his manager to stay….
  6. It’s carnage most summers with players out of contract………
  7. Wingers and groin injuries aren’t a happy match. Think Harry Chapman, —- pace was the only trick he had, when his muscles started pulling, he hadn’t enough muscle between his ears to compensate……
  8. Wasn’t there talk of signing a mate for Yuki?? Japanese striker likely out of contract in January??
  9. For pro’s imploring a card to be shown that’s a great shout……..even the FA might see sense in that
  10. Admin to complete and submit to the EFL? What could possibly go wrong…….
  11. so this is a general point rather than a reply as such…. do we really have the transfer fees? Wondering with the previous injections of funds from VHL via India being (I think) the purchase of shares in BRFC or it’s holding company, whether the transfer incomings have been used quietly to ‘buy back’ those shares and therefore funnel the cash back to the owners. I know there are real accountants and more gifted finance folk than me that post on here, so is there a legal and visible (or is it by nature invisible) process that siphons out cash??
  12. My favourite bit…… regular readers will know I’m not usually in the habit of recommending Preston North End as a viewing spectacle – unless you’re running the waiting room at Dignitas
  13. He won’t play in the first team - SWAG won’t risk letting him onto the rented coach if he’s clearly labelled as Car-sick
  14. loan in, or loan with outgoing player?? - sorry just seen someone else ask exactly that.......Doh
  15. local to me these days - many of my lads football mates are Gas-heads, the name stems from their old stadium at Eastville [now a Tesco!!] being next to several massive gas holders [called Gasometers when I was a kid], and prone to the occasional emission in the vicinity of the ground. Therefore as far as Ive been told, they're 'the Gas' because the general vicinity of that part of the city smelt of gas. Maybe the marketing folk at their club now think pirates is a better monicker as pirates smell better..........
  16. Oh Oh Eustace ....... another Coventry old boy...........
  17. They’ll probably fill it out wrong or send it to Ricky Tomlinson……..
  18. Anyone up for contacting Andy Cole for a statement on what he thinks of Waggott and his influence on the decline of the club?? [ I'll be the first to admit that I wouldnt know where to start.......]
  19. in a nutshell...... Rovers were always [even under Bill Fox when cash was tight and a £35k signing was a stretch] well-regarded nay admired, as a well run club punching above its weight - Since Venkys came, John Williams left, and a series of dubious advisors/agents and their stooges got the keys to the safe, it's rapidly becoming a laughing stock. Lewis O'Brien's and then McGuire's examples will go a long way to ruining any lingering reputation as Rovers being a club to do business with, or even take seriously regarding player transfers, or being a club that any ambitious player would want to join. A cynic might take a view that Waggot is probably only in the chair because Venus, [aided and abetted by Mowbray] alluded to a cut of a development land sell-off, and the chance to get the Cov gang back together......to say his performance in the role is lamentable understates it. It simply can't continue like this, sadly it looks at this stage very much like only HMRC or the Indian Courts can put us out of our misery
  20. Wouldn't it have been priceless if Adam W had seen from last night's fiasco that Venkys had no intention of using the proceeds of his sale to strengthen the team his big brother will still play for, and simply turned round and said "if I'm being sold just to pay off the Venkys, the deal's off...." [and yes I do know that it's professional sport, chance of premier league etc, but sometimes looking out for the family counts.......]
  21. Will McGuire the Yank need international clearance ?? How long will that take if the ‘back room staff’ are doing the paperwork??
