Surely you would think when Reilly got loaned out there would be something to get a loan player in? I'm just hoping if this consortium is on the cards to buy us then it happens before the window shuts then just maybe we might actually sign a bloody winger (I can dream)

An absolutely pathetic title for a thread, with some equally as pathetic comments. Two games in, and the manager and team are getting slagged off! If you're not Rovers, then f**k off, none of us will give a sh**, but don't drag the whole thing down to this sort of level. Presumably millennials or Generation Z kiddies with no patience or common sense. Sad *ers. Its not been 2 games though has it it's been 6 months of horrible football. I agree we needed it last season to stay up but what's the excuse at the start of a brand new season? I I don't agree with the title either just to put that out there.

I was chatting to a mate of mine today and on the whole WAQ takeover a few years ago. Do you think they got a bit of a reality shock when we went up to league one and the wages of players was so much more then they anticipated and had to subsidise. Because we went up two years running pretty much on conference wages?

Disappointing turn out too I thought. The weather was a bit iffy but 7,668 on the first day of the season is poor, especially as Wycombe had a decent following included in that. I was 50-50 on going today but as soon as I seen our line up it was a no from me and I know I wasn't the only one. Having watched us up Blackpool last week I wasn't going to waste anymore money until we get some decent f..king wingers/attacking midfielders in.

Anyone else just a little excited to see Mark Little and THD bombing it down the flanks from full back? I might be getting a bit carried away but we have on paper 2 quality league 1 full backs I just hope the rest of the signings are of the same quality. Irene

The thing is I can understand Lines and Locks but Sinclair is worth having around for his work in the community and as an example to young players breaking through on how to apply yourself He's a professional footballer not a social worker! The man still wants to play football

Having looked at the options available I can't see anyone with a better record of recruitment than Holloway. With his links to Gary Penrice in his current role I think he would make good use of the transfer window. I think fans views are clouded by his history with us which I realise we can't ignore. Any other Third Division threatened side would think that Holloway was probably out of reach for them. If he was interested I can't see a better candidate on offer at the moment. Any idea where abouts he lives these days? He lives local near Bath my mate was was working on his house a few months back and said he's still nuts!

I am never ever in the know. BUT by a stroke of luck someone I know well is well connected at a premier league club. I posted something on the BRFC appreciation page and to my surprise he saw it and commented. 'great things to come' as he put it... intrigued. FFS not another bulls..t riddle

In all fairness to DC the players he got in in the summer I thought weren't bad players Payne and Rodman had just had a great season at Shrewsbury the left back will be a star in this league but it does baffle me why you would by an injured player who is long term. Even Ed upson had good pedigree for this division but he's been really unlucky because sometimes you will get 1 or 2 that don't work out but it's all of them. And as for the tits up stairs the sooner they move on the better. Can anyone remember the first interview Hamer made and the interviewer asked what can we expect from the Al Qadis and his reply was its something the fans can be excited about and enjoy the journey well I'm not excited or bloody enjoying it you wally.

So from that interview U.W.E is dead in the water because that would be solved within 3 years as Geoff asked would we still be sitting here in 3 years- (wael-that would be to soon for any plans to start on a new stadium). Also had a lot of faith in the Al Qadis not anymore i feel for Wael a bit i honestly think if he could he would spend money but his family are just not interested that is what i got from that interview.

We were in for Ivan Toney but lost out to Peterborough FFS He went for 650k. we were in for a loan for him and was accepted but Peterborough fair play to them signed him on a permanent.

I get your point but didn’t we sign Matthews from Bournemouth and are reportedly looking to sign Healey from Cardiff? They are the sort of clubs you would be looking to sign loans and youngsters from. If you want to sign established league one professionals, you have to look further afield and have a little patience at times. We had Roberts and mcburnie from Swansea and never gave them much game time, DC said he was done with loans until now when we are struggling to attract strikers after selling our prize asset for well below the market value. you need to go after three strikers at the same time get them here assess them and try to get a deal over the line. Think we might have dodged a bullet with Baka, Walsall fans said he sulked after not getting a transfer in the January window, so it might not have worked out, like Nichols was our number one target last pre season. Thought with Widdrington we would be more organised, than the shambles it seems at present. I wouldn't say its been a shambles puckle our biggest mistake and i don't know why we do this but let Harrison leave before we get a replacement ourselves in its not like were desperate for the money apparently. Its just common sense surely find a replacement before you let your top striker go. MADDNESS

GOOD NEWS!!!! Being in League 1? after literally being a non league club a few years ago and could still be there now if not for 5 great penalties. Most of us would of chopped off our left bollock to be where we are now back then. The only reason we water and moan so much is because of whats happening with them inbreds the other side of the river great stadium more money Pretty much better everything apart from our fans. If city wasn't in the picture and it was just us their wouldn't be half the moaning that goes on. Because were trying to compete with a rival we just cant compete with at the moment. so just take stock of what we have achieved in the last few seasons and forget them and everyone might just feel that little bit more happier. (MAYBE) UTG Nonsense we moaned just as much when we were last in Div 1 and SL hadn't started his spending spree, what's irritating is we now have apparently wealthy foreign owners who don't want to really invest in the club. Although the real danger is if we get City like you say we'll eventually become similar to Port Vale and Stoke, you can now never see the latter ever getting on similar terms. Topper Gas who actually thought Rome was built in a day!! And not once did the owners say they were going to splash the cash? Are they improving the mem not to the standard we want but it is improving slowly-again Rome wasn't built in a day!! And the last time were in Div 1 we only really ever moaned was when we lost to the sh** and eventually got relegated-which really proves my point above their wasn't a lot of moaning when we beat them in matches and to league titles we actually loved the fact ragbag rovers would do them over we were proud of it. But your right our owners are the richest in the clubs history but lets be realistic if in 10 years were still where we are ill be the first one to drag um on a plane back to Jordan but i've got a feeling we'll be doing alright you don't buy a club for millions and clear there debts just remember if it wasn't for them we would probably be starting again in the Ivo stick league. THIS ISN'T FOOTBALL MANAGER THIS IS REAL LIFE.

What’s the betting the unfortunate delay at the other teams end was actually cash flow for Ellis? No it was to do with he wanted huddersfield to pay some of his wage until his contract expired for the Terriers hence thats why DC was saying its more to do with their end and not our own just a little inside info. Don't worry I'm not going to be spouting off that we have a Chinese consortium ready to buy the club and propel us to the prem.
