  1. Three really nicely worked goals, bit of a perfect away performance so far. We’ve all given them shit when it’s been warranted (which has been a lot recently), but cannot fault today. Clean sheet would really be the icing.
  2. Delighted to be 2 up, second goal was really well worked (and finished) 👍🏻
  3. Nice to see him get 2 goals and an assist yesterday. Seems to be doing quite well at Sheffield.
  4. I genuinely don't want to keep criticising him - as Rovers 'head coach', I want him to succeed as it means the club is succeeding. But he's really not helped himself with some of the shite that's left his mouth so far.
  5. I agree, but ultimately we need somebody who gives a shit about the club, is passionate about wanting us to succeed and puts these things above justifying their job by cost-cutting at any opportunity.
  6. With the recent news of Waggott going rogue and involving himself in both player acquisitions (at least Fleck, giving him £20pw) and directly appointing what appears to be a disastrous managerial appointment in Eustace. And he's been consistent that the owners have always agreed to send money / assist with the club whenever asked. You have to wonder if he has been the single point of failure over the last several years. Did he make the decisions to let contracts run down, or to not sell players like BBD and Rothwell? We're told 'the board' made the decision; he is paid to be the most senior member of that board. And that's before we go into horrific season ticket strategies, or embarrassing PR releases. The more I think about it - and the more you read into interviews by JDT and GB, the more I come to the conclusion that Waggott is THE issue at the club.
  7. Mainly because that isn't true. £2.5m was the original deal, then it was revised to £3.5m - as per Broughton himself last week.
  8. Not seen anything under JE to suggest we'll take anything from this game. Continuing to concede soft goals, failing to create much at the other end and a jumbled mess during transitions. Just have to hope the teams under us also fail to pick up points.
  9. You're on glue if you don't think Tronstad hasn't been one of our best players this season. Tonight he was a bit sloppy, but over the season, he's been pivotal (and very consistent).
  10. His reign so far has been disastrous, zero wins in 10 games. He claims to have prioritised keeping the back door shut, but we've continued to concede soft goals and lose games. Just with the added 'bonus' of becoming impotent in attack. If we were not skint, I'd be honestly tempted to write him off and let Johnson take the rest of the season. That Stoke game has been the best we've been (in the league) this calendar year.
  11. We were in free fall under JDT, but we’ve replaced him with a dud. He’s failed to win a single game (against some of the teams below/around us), we’ve continued to concede goals and now we’re much less of an offensive threat. Today was an easy a game as we are going to get this season. And we didn’t just fail to win, we handed them the 3 points.
  12. At least the time on the training ground paid off. Seems to be stealing a living.
  13. Absolutely dreadful. Ipswich were very poor today and we barely laid a glove on them. Our only hope this season is that the couple of teams below us are even shitter than we are. Some of those players did not show the hunger today and that makes me more angry than a lack of ability.
  14. The officiating has been atrocious (do we expect anything else in this league?), but let’s not allow it to disguise the fact that we are losing at home to one of the worst sides we’ve played in recent memory.
  15. Which makes the fact that we’re hopelessly losing to them even harder to take. We are too soft, lack quality.
  16. Gilsenan must be sat there watching Chrisene playing LW, trying to make sense of the world.
  17. Still waiting for that new manager bounce. 10 games and counting…
  18. We’ve done absolutely nothing, other than waste possession and concede the softest goal I can remember in living history. Struggling to find any positives from that half?
  19. Where’s the fight, the anger or desire? Sad to see what we have become. And, if we’re honest, Eustace isn’t going to be the man to do anything about it.
  20. At home to a club playing in League 1 less than 12 months ago. Bin the lot of them and start again.
  21. That’s an embarrassing piece of goalkeeping. My 8 year old son would have saved that. That’s a lot worse than any error Wahlstedt has made this season. And now we lose this match.
  22. He's an ambitious lad; he won't be interested in playing the Scottish league if there's an opportunity to play in the Premier League.
  23. In fairness, the good players he has lined up (eg O'Brien, Undav, etc) get conveniently scuppered by the club. Yet we're able to piss £20k a week away on an overweight cripple, who won't play another minute for the club.
  24. I was driving home from work when I listened to this, so might have misheard. But I'm sure early in the interview, GB states that the issues in India will have no financial impact on the club, including transfers. Only to later confirm that it had caused a massive impact in the summer and it would also need resolving (along with knowing which division we're in) before we know what business we can do in the summer. Which one is it?
  25. I think the Italy game in the last Euros final was a perfect demonstration of Southgate's limitations as a coach. 1-0, on top and the game/trophy there to be won. But he sat back, put on players like Henderson and invited Italy to come upon us. And we all know what happened from there.
