I’ll raise it again at the next one in September for sure. I was going to go with it myself, but another forum member got there first and asked the questions I wanted to ask!

He was, but, to be honest (and I don’t agree with this at all for the avoidance or doubt), he wasn’t really for budging at all on that!

Minutes from last meeting available here- https://www.rovers.co.uk/fans/fans-forum.

As long as we have no injuries, they are still a thing….

I’d say it’s more concern that the season starts in three days and we haven’t replaced experienced players that we lost at the end of the season.

Of course they do, some don’t take it far enough either. The more extreme views on both ends of the spectrum stand out more because they’re exactly that- extreme. In any case, they’re only opinions and pixels on a screen. The majority of views are somewhere in the middle.

We need to move away from dismissing people’s legitimate concerns as them being negative, as much as we needed to move away from calling people happy clappers because they were seen as blindly praising the club no matter what. We have lost a lot of first team appearances from last season and the new season starts in four days, that’s a fact.

Pretty harsh to call a manager with two seasons and two league titles under his belt a rookie, no?

Dick tease….

To be fair, I and many others refer to Rovers as ‘we’ or ‘us’. Guessing it’s to do with feeling some sort of connection at some point throughout my life?

Just what I needed to hear, thank you!

In fairness to 1864, I definitely remember a post where he revealed all not that long ago. Probably would have helped the mods a lot more if that had come earlier, but he spilled his guts, that’s for sure!

I am serious, sorry Shirley. For real though, I’ve always just gone off positions and not numbers. I.E- defensive mid, box to box, attacking mid etc.

What’s an ‘8’ and what’s a ‘6’? (Not aimed at you Jimmy, more the author of the article). This ain’t rugby!

Reminder about point 1. We aren’t having people being accused of being fans of other clubs, just as we aren’t having people being called club plants. Just stop it.

Bradley Orr & Jason Lowe were better than Nyambe?

And have you ask me to reinstate it, because you’re a glutton for punishment? Nah you’re alright mate.

Probably wouldn’t kill you two to leave each other alone would it?

I like to think he’d been given many examples of why he was wrong since tbh (Roy Keane etc). Either way, looks like the ban hammer will have to be woken up, which is a shame.

Just a quick reminder guys- we don’t want you baiting each other about things that have been said in the past, particularly if you’re being incredibly economical with the truth. We’ve not handed out many warnings at all recently and I’d love for that to continue.

He talked about it in the Steve Waggott thread.

I’m also amazed that anyone that has seen Sam Gallagher play football thinks he’s been a quality player for us tbh.

Probs wouldn’t hurt to say why it’s complete nonsense though. Anyhow, I’ll leave it there.

Good contribution with a full and clear explanation behind your point. Thanks….

I honestly don’t think they do look for the worst in everything to do with the club that’s melodramatic. It just appears that way when you’ve got a preconception about any poster on here. If you want to see something a certain way, you’ll probably see it in 20/20 tbh.
