I suspect they would be content with a relegation as the wage bill comes right down and the losses IN L1 reduce to the norm of about £5m for the bigger clubs in that league. Absolutely no guarantee that a relegation gets rid.
-
He's no better than Mcfadzean and has a recent injury record to rival Gallagher. Would be a disastrous signing.
-
Gallagher managed 49 minutes yesterday before being substituted..... injured (again).
-
Waggott will be disappointed that the objective of dropping to L1 to reduce the losses has been frustrated this season by Eustace's over-achievement. Losing valuable players out of contract is just further evidence that this is Venkys objective.

Yes, Howard Kendall's team that missed promotion to the top division on goal difference. -

Suspect he never will be for this level. Powder puff finishing again and a terrible first touch ended a promising attack. Needs to be sent out on loan and a better striker brought in. Won't happen of course. -

Another virtually pointless festive period of fixtures. Heading towards midtable in the New Year. So predictable. -

Venkys are interested only in cutting costs. End of. -
Collector's item... Sam Gallagher appeared for 20 minutes. That's more than an hour in total so far this season!

An absolutely dreadful match to watch. Seen more football in the local park on a Sunday morning. Hoofball is the only description and it went on for 98 sodding minutes. Poor substitutions that lost whatever little control and outlets Rovers had in the match. Dolan absolutely dreadful and won't be missed next season. Weiman and Hedges powder-puff defending. Pickering is an injury waiting to happen. Travis hamstrung by an early booking from a poor ref and then later literally hamstrung. Far too much space given away to the flanks and a goal felt inevitable from the number of crosses they were allowed to put in. Gueye put in a lot of effort but most of the time doesn't know what he's trying to do. Cantwell looked like a ming vase in the middle of a stampede. -
John Eustace - our head coach

Rohl under contract till 2027.Doubt that one year's less compensation would influence such a major decision for a Premier League club. -
And Eustace has previously been linked to Southampton if there's a vacancy. He would be a good shout to get them back up. Let's hope it doesn't happen.

Defo won't happen. We all know that. Excuses and incompetence as usual , that's Venkyland. -

Sky commentators totally biased to Wednesday just as they were v Boro. One of them even kept referring to "we" in his comments about Wednesday. Why do Rovers always always get this treatment from Sky? The commentators they put out don't even pretend to be impartial and mostly haven't even done their homework on Rovers.. -

Barry Bannon will be back for this one (suspended yesterday). Hugely influential player. -
Some sources say that there were "too many cooks" and they were falling out. Heard something similar about Ewood Park recently...
-
So what's the plan when that money runs out?
-
Links to other Championship jobs suggests that's already happening.
-
That only works within the limit of 4 non-UK players and currently there's at least 3 places taken. Can Guestede count to 4?:
-
Currently the same points and games at this time as last season and we know what happened then.....

Spot on. -
Now that this is Waggotts responsibility nothing will happen just as it did before Broughton was brought in.
-
How many years is it since ANYTHING good happened in a January transfer window at this club?
