I was born just before we won the prem. Fond memories through my parents eyes having been friends with the Pearce, Sutton's and Hendrys! And Sutton's son being one of my then friends growing up

Dan Pike reportedly agreed a new 2 year deal. Assume that's Nyambe off?

Benno tweeted about Telford, can only assume signing for Shrewsbury?

Very interesting.

I'd heard the same

That something you've heard? Surely not

Still have hope that man won't be in charge. He is quite possibly the least deserving person that can manage our club. He has been quite frankly woeful for around 2 years. League 1 promotion campaign was fun in terms of being able to go to new grounds but I genuinely don't think the performances with the team he had were mind blowing. This season people got carried away by the 5-0 wins against 10 men clubs.

Frank Lampard is an awful manager. Bottled it with Derby and Chelsea had heaps of talent and failed. No thank you.

You don't enjoy rumours do you?

In what way did the whole thing get bigger? Is it to do with this potential sale, or do you reckon that's wide of the mark?

Just relaying information that is interesting! And thought provoking.

There's been that post and then someone else on here said that they had heard the same unrelated incidents.

Please could you change topic header to "Potential Venkys sale"

On the Roversfan MB this was posted: " guy who claims to be in-the-know about Rovers at the golf club showed me a message yesterday evening from someone he knows at Rovers. It claimed that Venky's are about to sell all or part of their share in the club to someone who owns / runs the Indian Premier League cricket."

So with the 2 rumours of an alleged Venky sale to an IPL owner being talked about thought I would start a thread.

Where was the other message board rumour?

I don't think Ben Sheaf will be a bad signing. Whereas if Mowbray was making the signing it'd be mostly shit.

I reckon Ben Sheaf is an analyst signing if I'm honest.

Jaquob has confirmed Johnson is staying - absolutely baffling he's been woeful.

Hope you both are wrong 😂

I'll give you the answer to the topic. It was absolutely awful and all because of Tony Mowbray who should have been potted 2 years ago.

As posted in other topic - 7 of this 16 won't be here definitely next season. That's not taking into account Armstrong or Nyambe. Scary.

No no no - I don't want to be developing any other academies youngsters whilst we have our own great academy. Why loan players when we have zero ambition for promotion. The Harvey Elliott loan an absolute waste - what benefit did we actually get? He didn't push us to a top 6 finish, so we should have been developing Dolan who actually we own. The THB and Branthwaite loans absolutely pointless. Could have developed Carter / Magloire and again we have finish midtable with these loans.

7 out of the squad of 16 today leave. People on Facebook / here who believe in the Tony Mowbray journey need to read the above and understand that this "Journey" is going completely backwards.

I think Mowbray is off as @darrenrover and @Paul Mani have said. It appears as though he's completely lost control of any decision he makes. He won't be part of the season review and this will be the end for Mowbray. let's just hope the Venkys back the team with a good manager as alluded to before a foreign manager or Ainsworth and give them a kitty to reinvest the extortionate wages paid to Evans, Mulgrew etc etc.
