Jon Dahl Tomasson - Sweden coach

Leicester are more likely to be in the Premier League than Rovers (next season). Bookies have Leicester at a best priced 9/5 to get relegated. You can get 14/1 on Rovers getting promoted. So they reckon a 64% chance of Leicester staying up and a 7% chance of Rovers going up. Even if Leicester did get relegated, you'd think they'd be in a better position to get promoted next season than Rovers. -

Nice to have our manager being linked with other jobs again. Every time a managerial vacancy came up when Hughes was here I would start to panic. Been awhile since we've had a manager that another club would even look at poaching - shows he's doing a decent job. Graham Potter now in as favourite though. -

Not sure where else to put this, but just noticed Jason Steele appears to be Brighton's keeper at the moment. How on earth has that happened? -
Emile Heskey of the Rovers

He followed that up by scoring once in his next 35 appearances for club and country. -

This is just Premier League goals as well. Pretty sure he will have scored against us outside of the Premier League as well. -
Not sure how you can say he got the second half spot on? They went from being completely dominant in the first half - to not having a single shot or corner in the second half.

Under the current stewardship it is. Like expecting Usain Bolt to still win the 100m with a broken leg. -
But they are playing City away - the absolute toughest fixture you could get. Burnley have probably got less than a 10% chance of getting to the semi finals. I'd suggest Sheffield United have probably a 60/65% chance and Rovers a 35/40% chance.

Can't understand why Burnley would be a shorter price than Sheffield United or Rovers personally.

I was interested to see how Mowbray stacked up against JDT at this level. I removed the League One season and included league and cup games for the seasons at Championship level. Mowbray - P212 - Won 35.8% JDT - P42 - Won 52.4% -
v Leicester City (a) - 28/02/23 (FA Cup 5th Round)

Best performance in a long, long time. 10 players from the academy in the 20 man squad 16 English players, 2 Welsh, 1 Scottish, 1 Irish (Like watching old school football again) Average age of under 23. Oldest player in the squad was 27. The work rate and pressing was absolutely phenomenal. Reading the Leicester forums and them admitted we could have scored 5 or more goals before they scored. I'd love to see what JDT could do with a bit of money to supplement our wonderful academy. -
Well I wanted a gamble rather than a safe appointment - but one with some managerial experience (ie. not Ferguson). JDT certainly ticks those boxes. He comes across very well in interviews. I'd rather JDT than Rooney all day long. We could be rolling the dice and getting a one - but equally we could be getting a six. Better than sticking with a 'three' every year.

Transfer Window - COMPLETE. Where’s Gregg?

Could leave Rovers with an interesting decision 😂 Like which taxi firm we are sending him to the airport with. -
But the other 65% of his Achilles was very brave.

Absolutely!!! Not a chance that a cricket ball missed Kean's head by inches and he didn't make sure everyone in the media knew he was the victim.
