Maybe we’ve annoyed them by going for the defender they wanted. BUT Nathan Jones is known for BSing.

I don’t think it’s ‘embarrassing’ to react with disdain after our form since just before Christmas, then going 1-0 down to a L1 team. I do think it’s embarrassing to judge those who did, though.

People do care, but he’s also signed Szmodics, Tronstad, Hyam, Brittain (and imo O’Riordan is a class signing). Plus he’s largely tying players down to contracts that get us fees now. Swings and roundabouts.

Nothing to do with Wharton, dude 😝

I feel sick.

Bron Breakker took Lesnar’s exact role allegedly. Which is actually disappointing as he should be an entrant to oppose Lesnar imo. Definitely needed some more legend sprinkling in there. I feel likes of X-PAC, Scotty2Hotty, would put on a decent show with a decent pop. Maybe even fully retired types like Kane/Kurt Angle could do it? I think the main ‘boredom’ factor is that you can’t pop to any wrestling music anymore. It’s all very generic. Where are the catchphrases, the glass smashes, the Jim Johnston stuff?

Every time I watch Gally’s goal, the calm finish impresses me even more. A daisy-cutter from that far out doesn’t normally go in.

Ditto. Skill and hard work. Aggressive too, and not in a chickenshit way like Trav.

Joe Roberto Carlos kept that ball superbly again!

That little shrug from JRC to keep the ball took out 3 Wrexham players 🤌🤌🤌

I always thought the reverse was true. People who support Spurs are Kents. I’m deaf, so maybe I misheard the last word…

YES I knew I wasn’t going mad! I think Shah was the fellow who brought Benkys in as backers, and possibly a certain agent persuaded Venkys to go it alone. Something along those lines, anyway.

I think I might be mixing up because there was another Indian buyer. Ali Syad?

Yeah, now feel like I remember someone insisting Venkys were meant to be the capital behind a buyer, but were persuaded to buy for themselves? I might be making that up entirely though…

I seem to remember Rothschilds had a hand in our sale somehow?

The S*n once nicknamed Nixon ‘the boss of goss’ 🤮 a nickname that suits him as he peddles gossip rather than breaking stories.

With respect (I agree with you mainly), he didn’t break any of those three stories. He may have been the first person you read mentioning them, but he didn’t break any.

It has been alleged (and it’s believable given the timeframes) that Shane has known about this kind of behaviour from his father the whole time, and it is the main reason he left the company in the mid00s. Apparently he ‘didn’t want to be like, or endorse’ his father.

I think Szmodics would count as ‘with him’ in the roles they each play.

Some were teenagers or didn’t have the money at the time. Some WERE interested and Venkys were favoured (some rightly, some wrongly).

Absolutely. That statement (on Facebook and Instagram) is littered with anti-Venky sentiment. Hopefully materialises vs Wrexham!

In fairness, most replies on the official Rovers facebook page are anti-Venkys.

They literally missed tax payments last year, and are under investigation by India for not paying the appropriate tax there! Some people.

In my time with RT (around 7 years) I knew concretely of 5 interested parties at various points. I knew of around 20 speculated interested parties.

The words ‘if’, ‘suspect’, and ‘I’d wager’ ensure he isn’t.
