Even down a man we look miles better with Tavares on the bench.

Not sure it was a PK as the contact was outside the box and Seargent was looking for it. But that doesn’t change the fact we are deservingly losing and really should be down more than 1

Incredible soft red. Might not be a foul and might be outside the box. IMG_5077.mov

Ok and a red. Another questionable call going against us.

Almost half and if you’re not watching, all you need to know is Hedges has been our brightest player. That’s how bad it’s been.

No chance they don’t score in the first half.

Need to settle in here. One way traffic at the moment

Hedges looks unusually fast there.

I’m sure it’s in part because what we have there isn’t that great. So allure of potentially a better option breeds optimism

He may but he’s not match fit

Truth

We’re such a clown show. Feel bad for Leonard. Gets his chance at first team football. A relaunch of his career. Likely bitter sweet with the years he’s spent at the club, says his heartfelt goodbyes…then some c^nt who know fuck all about football walks in and says we’re not selling you. Back to the bench and the 21s until we get another £300,000? A rounding error in modern football terms. In the end I hope we loan him out so he gets to play everyday. The kid deserves a shot to kick start his career.

Will be interesting to see if we get any premier league kids on loan. When was the last season we weren’t starting and relying on them in the first XI

Football is so often win and lost by the slimmest of margins. We’ve had two questionable pk calls not go our way and one terrible corner. Those 3 plays are the difference between 7 points and sitting in 3rd and 3 points and in 16th.

Fixed that for you

So that’s that then. We sell our captain, don’t get our asking price (again) and will replace him with a player who is already injured. Still no striker or winger and surely Hyam is shipped out in the next week.

According to some he hasn’t been seen for 7 days. Can’t pick someone who’s not there

While baffling seems about right.

Hard to believe we’re in need of a “transition” to a new “project” when we were 1 point off the play offs and returned everyone sans Dolan, Batth and Weiman. All of whom could have been retained or replaced given we offered fair contracts. All that was required to push on was a Striker and a winger to compete. We’ve now taken a giant step back for what? It’s fucking madness.

I’d argue they’ve abandoned it, just not sold it off.

It is a difficult market when 1) you’re offering sub par wages, 2) you won’t pay fair value for transfer fees, 3) you run out of cheap spots to pay low wages and fees using foreign exemptions. couple that with key player in the final year of their contract who know they’ll earn more elsewhere, and other clubs keenly aware that Rovers will be forced to sell at cut rate prices. I’d say under those circumstances it’s a nearly impossible market to do business in. I still can’t believe Wharton was sold for £21 million. Hutchinson going for £37 million highlights just how bad of a transfer that was for us…but desperate times cause desperate measures, and we’ve been forced into selling assets for nothing for years now.

He did but it was on De Neve to put him in that position. Still think the player was looking for it.
