ryan will be our biggest miss,he`ll be a top player under a decent manager(mowbray ****** him about endlessly),im`e not bothered about rothwell,he`ll be on bournemouths bench for ever and lenihan won`t pull any trees up at boro,the fans will probably turn against him when he gets turned continually by a quick centre forward,we`ve seen it

no way middlesboro are paying him 30 grand a week,they have a sensible chairman in gibson,who`s been in charge for years and has done the maniac wage period in years past,i reckon wilder has sold the club,it`s idealogy and promotion to him,tbh if he wants promotion he should be getting in defenders who are better than darragh

van hecke is going to the top echelons of the game,unfortunately we ar`nt in a position to have him here at the moment,as for darragh,**** him,he`s bog standard stopper with a bad disciplinary record,defenders of his type are ten a penny,if ayala was`nt such a crock he`d be a much better replacement

for the first time in years there is genuine optimism around rovers with a manager who looks happy and ambitious,lets all enjoy it,venkys stayed away from the scene under moggadon and gave him plenty of money to spend,iv`e no doubt they`ll do the same with jdt,i think we are on the way up😁

id`e be having a go at getting scott twine,the box to box mk dons midfielder,runs all day,gets into good positions and has a great long shot on him he`s ready for the step up imo,won`t last long at mk dons before a bigger club steps in and takes him

to be fair to swag,he did scrap the daft cat a prices last season,i do agree that there should be a fixed £20 quid across the ground matchday price,we`ve got to get the fans back,short term loss for long term gain,though i doubt swag realises his target market

i`ll be very disapointed if we are not challenging for the play offs,especially if you look at the division,there is nothing to be scared of,fulham and bournemouths untold millions are not here this year,it`s wide open,i expect west brom to be up there with middlesborough,the three relegated teams ar`nt in the best shape,norwich ar`nt very good,watfords new manager will be out of his depth and most likely sacked by christmas and the dingles are in disarray,under a seemingly progressive manager as well we can definately get in the play offs

got a good delivery on set pieces but offers little else going by his bournemouth spell,honestly think there are better options,he`s a show pony imo

no doubt kompany will have contacts,but is it wise to have 3 or 4 fragile academy players in the attritional championship,it`s one of my major criticisms of the academy system,it does`nt prepare a young player for first team football like the old central league did,then you had pro`s trying to get back in the first team and young lads trying to make the breakthrough,it was very competetive and gave a young player a real taste of what first team football was really like,some of the u23`s games are a like a kickabout and are of no use in development imo

more than burnley on the parachute payments and a host of other big clubs in the promotion hunt,if i was a player being loaned out,id`e much rather head to west brom,middlesborough,watford,stoke,,norwich etc

moggadon will resurface somewhere,he`s far to in awe of his own managerial ability to simply walk away from the game ,would`nt be surprised to see him at sheff wed next season if they start badly and darren moore gets the boot

you really think pope,cornet,taylor and brownhill are going to play in the championship🤣,says it all when you lot have to give an extension to the clumsy oaf barnes,face it mate,you lot are *******,it`s going to be a long,cold winter😊

i think he`d want massive money to come here,would be a great signing though

going to be good solid defender is carter,vital we keep him imo,at his age now he should be ready for the first team

went in the roverstore for my season ticket this morning,apparently sales have been very brisk since jdt was announced,definately a bounce in my rovers step compared to this time last year,following rovers under mowbray was like being stuck in a perpetual winter when the weather is miserable and dark

lenihan needs to start well there otherwise middlesborough fans,who are notoriously tetchy about their status as underlings to newcastle and sunderland,will get on his back,they will be expecting boro to be up there challenging this season

you can make or break your job as a manager in 5 minutes,it`s the same in industry as in football,you only get one chance to make a favourable impression

only things i picked up from the twitter piece was how gally looked happy,he must be thinking "thank **** im`e not going to be on the wing this season"

well he can **** off,throw his training gear on the road and ban him from brockhall

i can guarantee everyone now that these two won`t be sitting down yawning and gurning😆

after he stated possesion football is great but not for the sake of it,i thought thank **** for that

i am more upset about rothwell and possibly nyambe leaving,not to bothered about lenihan,he`s bog standard stopper,easily replaceable,if ayala could stay fit it would be problem solved,he`s a class above lenihan,reads the game extremely well

i know for a fact that lowe is ridiculed and disliked by the players benson does seem to be respected,though having a goalkeeping coach who has never even played the game is a no no for me johnson was once thought of as a future asst manager or even a candidate for the top job,he was seemingly sidelined by mowbray,maybe the prehistoric one was feeling threatened by a younger,progressive coach or maybe dj saw himself as a coach to the younger players and moved away from the first team

i give lowe and benson a week before jdt ***** them off,imo a complete clear out of mowbrays dross needs to happen

frankly if i had that amount of attacking talent as a manager,id`e just go and tell them to play football,don`t worry about the defending,we`ll score more than them,we can`t defend anyway,mcguire and stones are exposed at the highest level
