I honestly believe the owners don’t plan anything.

The January transfer window is ideally for tinkering around, bringing a bit more cover for injuries or suspensions, allowing fringe players to get some game time elsewhere. What’s galling for me and most of us is that the owners and/or Waggott have left us in the position where it’s just as important and urgent as the summer window. There is seemingly no money and no plans to change that situation. Ever.

Virtually every manager I’ve seen at Ewood for 65yrs+ has moved on. Eustace will definitely move on, it’s just a matter of when he gets a better offer. The way things are it will be sooner rather than later. Why the hell wouldn’t he?

Question to Waggott…. Why does the tens of millions recieved from outgoing transfers, coupled with reinvesting virtually nothing for a long time now point more to receivership than ambition?

I don’t think they helped themselves when they renamed themselves to “we are the rovers”. It just immediately suggests that they exist to support everything the club does.

12 months since Wharton was sold. How much of that has been reinvested?

and the second half always makes up for it does it?

Teams hoping for promotion can go to places like Oxford and lose, that’s for sure. Teams with hopes of promotion tend not to go and put in abysmal performances though. We’re into the new year and it’s so blindingly obvious that the current group of players need help. We have no ability to cover for injuries or fatigue. What these lads are being asked to do is the impossible and I have absolutely no doubt that they know it also. It’s not fair on them. They’re being let down by the owners and by Waggott. Stop giving us the bullshit Waggott. There’s money available you tell everyone, well prove it and give the manager the help he needs.

No they wont. Not in my opinion they wont. Theyre both playing in a league that’s above their level.

Our needs for a striker have been known for many months. The head of football operations has known for months. Here we are middle of Jan and I do wonder what he’s been doing.

Bellamy was a striker who was even better when he drifted out wide. He was never selected and played as a winger.

You don’t play good strikers on the wing.

His comments since suggest he was led to believe funds would be available.

A population of 1.429 billion.

You’ve no idea what he was promised Eddie. It seems reasonable listening to his comments that it was more than this - so far at least.
