Shearer’s watching a different match if he thinks TAA did really well.

We’ve got 3 top quality players Bellingham, Saka and Kane - 2 of them are playing well, Kane is anonymous. Apart from that we aren’t amazing. Foden got kicked a couple of times in the first 10 mins and he bottled it for the rest of the half. We don’t offer much else of a threat.

So what’s the expectation for England this tournament? Winners? Finalists? Semis? QFs?

Rio Ferdinand is pissing me off already

They’ve decided enough to let the club spend £100k on a Linfield player.

He said we had a budget for Academy players and we’ve already signed one, so he’s right so far.

He is exactly Pasha’s bitch until it is realised he can’t work miracles and then he will be dispensed with within 18 months.

Anyone know what this morning’s Nixon story is?

Won’t the CEO, whoever it may be, just be Pasha’s beaatch?

It has. It’s in the LT transfer story from earlier today. He’s also repeated it on twitter which I see you’ve posted above. What he says is what I’ve been saying for weeks.

Yes, he’s my bestie. I’m hoping for more ❤️

All good questions. I’m not sure anyone is suggesting that it’s a well run club!

It’s just been requested. And money not arriving isn’t proof that they can’t send any. they’ve clearly been using the Wharton money since January to keep the club afloat

Agreements can be made outside of the courtroom, hence why after the adjournment Rovers stated the outstanding issues no longer related to Rovers and were technical in nature. The announcement by Rovers about outstanding legal issues only relating to venkys Hatcheries and not Rovers was made 3 days after the court case. This would indicate agreement was possibly reached on what the parameters of the August court case in a subsequent meeting after the adjournment. Or prior.

Well, quite, that’s another issue, they might not want to post an equivalent bond. My understanding is that the issue re sending funding to Rovers was settled in March. And by ‘my understanding’ l mean my interpretation of what’s gone on. I may be wrong.

As I’ve repeatedly stated, I have no idea what is true and what isn’t, just like you. I can only interpret things as I believe them to be true. if I’m wrong or right I certainly won’t be looking to score points or trying to move the goalposts. I appreciate the discussion at least. Let’s just hope what we are being told is true and that we are able to sign the players we desperately need to avoid a repeat of last years shitshow👍

It is. Im a similar age to Campbell so I’ll always associate him with the start of the Prem years, and the fantastic times we had as Rovers fans in the 90s and early noughties. I suddenly feel very old! Like you say, a sad day for footy, especially as the Millwall lad was so young. tragic.

And in today’s LT it stated an agreement was reached earlier this year that means they can fund us. It’s worth noting the Jackson though it was a tax-related issue for quite a while AFTER it was clear it was to do with overseas money transfers.

I’ll be clearer. The court case is to do with Venky’s allegedly transferring money overseas for purposes other than what they were stated for. In this case saying they were poultry-related funds when the allegation is the money was spent on Neville’s house. It had nothing to with tax or any of the other reasons initially flouted in the LT and elsewhere. When charges were brought Venkys were prohibited from sending any money overseas to Rovers. An agreement was reached in March in court that decided Rovers were not implicated and thus funding could continue, but only if an equivalent bond was posted with Indian Authorities. The court date in August concerns the Neville house and whether any laws have been broken regarding overseas transfers of money (hence overseas funds). It has nothing to do with funds that have been sent to Rovers, and no longer impacts their ability to fund us.

It’s ironic you’re asking me to prove it when only a few posts higher you have said 100% that Venky’s can’t send funds, but are now admitting you’ve no proof. Elliot Jackson has stated an agreement has been reached in today’s LT, Rovers have previously said the court case now concerns technical non-Rovers related issues, and he’s also said we’ve just requested funds. You can believe what you want, but like me you’ve no proof. My belief is that funds can now be sent subject to an equivalent bond being stumped. My belief is the court case in August has nothing to do with Rovers.

Would you like to provide evidence they can’t send funds over?

They can, and will. IMO of course

Because they’ve not been allowed to, they now can. I think what people are missing is that at the adjourned court case in March there were agreements made that meant the unresolved issues no longer related to Rovers, they only related to Venky’s. The adjournment was purely to give each party time to prepare their case in respect of foreign currency issues and if Venky’s had a case to answer relating to Neville’s house. It has nothing to do with BRFC.

Kevin Campbell has died at 54.

Jackson said there would be a budget for Academy players. Looks like the fee for this lad is about £100k. Hopefully more signings like this to come.
