2nd left, 2nd row...we ain't getting Zidane... 😜

From a WBA mate…😳

I’d send a WhatsApp for a quicker reply…😉

Exactly…to say he’s off the pace is being polite

We are always looking for new suppliers but the issue with a halved hoody is it would only be popular with us. Any manufacturer willing to supply a bespoke design like that usually would insist on a minimum production run & the cost would be prohibitive. We’ve spoken with several manufacturers of hats/scarves etc to do bespoke designs but the issue is minimum runs. They need to supply 200…we want to order 20..!🤦‍♂️ If you go to a manufacturer/wholesaler for a “plain blue” hoody/sweatshirt/tee shirt there’s loads of options as they are generic. When we did the retro Rovers shirts with Ribero, we had to take orders up front & if we hadn’t have hit the minimum threshold, then we’d either have had to cancel the item or carry the stock - which at the time would have been problematic. Fortunately demand was significant.

We can’t do anything with the club badge on it sadly. You need to have a licence from them to reproduce the logo. There is no way these are in any way official. I’d be “cautious” as to the quality…or whether they actually turn up… We can do zipped up hoodies but they’d be in solid colours blue, black, white etc & any design/embroidery would be ours.

Best for all parties concerned IMO

Wouldn’t Rovers want to know if he’d be interested in taking over on 9th February 2026? 😉

Avril Lavigne 100-1 outsider…

Re 5. - must have been an interesting interview for the Villa gig…

Just listening to Frank Skinner’s podcast…he’s just asked what Troy Deeney & Dana have in common? Both of them scored zero in their specialist round on Celebrity Mastermind…😂 https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m001tlgf

They want a coach but keep accidentally appointing managers…

It’s not wholly inconceivable that a candidate has said “I would want George too…” & so they’ve spoken to GB to interview him…

Yes…PM’d you 👍

He could do a lot worse than Boro…Gibson must be a joy to work with compared to some…👀

I couldn’t see Duff lasting till the summer TBH…he strikes me as a “furious ball of energy” guy who would find the structure here to be “sub-optimal” * *That’s a euphemism for “telling a lot of people what he thinks of them..” 😁 He’s probably what we need for that reason…but…

GO’N? 🤔

That it costs less to run a Championship club…which it does. But their only hope of getting any of their investment back is promotion.

My theory: They bought us out of their global marketing budget…then didn’t launch Venky’s Xpress We are so small in the great scheme of things that our numbers don’t move the dial at group level They’re in now & can’t face admitting they failed…pride? They are delighted to hear from Suhail that we don’t need as much money these days

That’s not how many contracts are structured these days. The fired manager often receives compensation until they find a new job.
