I am more than happy to eat my words here about the lack of r*llocks on the boys. Come on and win it Rovers!!!

Last week pulled the wool over a few eyes. The front 3 we’ve started with over the past two league games is simply not experienced enough - nor good enough. He’s had a bit of a stinker today, but I can see a couple of very direct conversations taking place over the next 48 hours between JDT and Swag/GB.

Pretty much what happened last season too with the same outcome. Lessons were learned we were told this week(!).

Gilsenen simply cannot be worse than Dolan.

Yep, we fold like a deck of cards whenever we fall behind. It’s been this way for a good year or two before JDT got here too. A huge issue.

Jesus fecking Christ, this stadium. Let’s just give them the 3 points next season and save the fans the bother. Not one set of b*llocks on this lot, yet again.

Same sh*t different season at Rovers. Until we can roll up our sleeves at places like this and come away with 3 points, we’ll never get out of this league. What’s the betting we’ll be just as poor at coming from behind in matches this season too?

His position should help his cause as we’re not exactly blessed with wide creative types. He needs to be on the bench at the expense of Batty for Saturday.

Either way, they're looking goosed before a ball is even kicked.

Burnley signing Berge from Sheff Utd. No idea what the latter are doing; their two best players out of the door before a ball is kicked. Reckon Luton may even finish above them.

My only fear with the rule change is we’ll somehow turn matches like Coventry and PNE into defeats rather than draws 😂.

That was my first observation when I saw him against Huddersfield last season. He has an edge. Something about him. And as you say, that tends to serve strikers well.

Absolutely love this from JDT.

Great win! Did not see that coming after the pst few weeks. Great to see Leonard scoring and playing well.

Without Sharpe, is there any recommendations to follow Twitter wise for updates?

Very reliant on a set pieces or some JRC magic until we bring in some goals. If we bring in some goals, I should say.

If that front three doesn’t scream ‘we need signings’ then I don’t know what does.

Yeah I just can’t see it. Even his ‘destroyer’ would need to be semi decent on the ball. Trav isnt that man.

As an aside I suspect the Trav to Saints rumours is rubbish. His passing ability would get found out within 5 mins in that side.

I was hanging fire to make a prediction until we had brought in a centre forward as I think it's that important and would be the difference maker. Given thats looking very unlikely to happen anytime soon - if at all - here we are. I had genuine optimism that we'd get play-offs at the start of July after our decent start to the transfer window. A month on however and I have big concerns about the forthcoming campaign. I fear we're a JDT-walking (looking increasingly likely) or a few injuries to key players away from imploding this season. Heart says mid-table, head is beginning to think we could be in for a dog fight.

You’d like to think they would be thinking, this is more hassle than it’s worth for us now. But alas the five year shirt deal etc. would firmly suggest not.

Indeed. Barring any minor miracles, that’s what we’ll be lining up with next weekend against WBA too. Frightening.

It’d be for one season too as he’s going to be joining Madrid next summer. Insane.

Haven’t seen anything. He’s probably thinking there’s bugger all to say that he’s not said since last season. Basically: ‘we need some fucking goals’.

We’ll be seeing this a lot with that front three.
