Rumour of an "out of contract" loan signing just for this specific match. Suggestion that he is ULAP REMILL. Know nothing about him other than his reputation for scoring late goals. Falling for this hook line and sinker. Tried to Google him but comes up with nothing. Starting to think it's Ulac Heart or summit... Try solving the anagram before you google.

Why can't the club communicate this news to us and provide some sort of clarity of what is happening moving forward... How we intend to improve and strengthen various departments? Maybe a Q&A session with the new owners, CEO and Manager. Maybe they could appoint a PR person and director of communications first, because our communication and interaction with the fanbase is diabolical! I was looking on the website last Wednesday to find an email address for a Backroom employee. I noticed that Rovers manager is one Mr. J. Barton. The website is a joke!

Crama looked great until his injury. Since his return he doesn't seem the same player.

If it’s that bad people won’t sit there unless pretty much every other seat in the stadium is gone. If we’re getting more seats this will only be a problem at capacity. I’m happy sitting behind a pillar…..just being inside the Mem is enough for me. Well that and a couple of sausages rolls…..happy days. Don't suppose it makes much difference if you wear a bucket over your head.

Incomplete and thus meaningless saying. DC used to annoy me with that! I think you may have missed the point of his but hay ho. 🤷♂️ Try:- The proof of the pudding is in the eating. You'll find it now makes sense.

A great team performance and difficult to single out one player when several were contenders for MotM, but no doubt Marquis made a real difference. Hunt and Thomas look a great combination but how many times in leagues games earlier this season have they broke the back line and looked up, only to see Brown and Collins on the edge of the box and therefore had to play the ball back instead. He might not have got a touch to the cross which led to Hunt's goal but his presence was enough to create the space for Hunt and wrong foot the keeper. How many people noticed the effort he put in for the third goal? He chased down the back line from near the West Stand right across to their left back, making him hurry his clearance and give us possession. Earlier it was his clever run which took the defender out of position that allowed Evans to run at goal before skying his left foot chance and again when Collins had that run in the second half beating 2 or 3 defenders, it was Big John's run off the ball that created the space. For his goal he won the ball in his own half and held it up, before laying off a simple ball, before making the run to get in the box. His pressure means defenders don't get full clearances. I think yesterday was the most times in a game where we shot from outside the box, rather than having to collect the ball ten yards further back and having to go sideways. Held the ball up well, harried the defence and fully deserved his goal. I am not sure of the stats, but would expect there is a marked difference between Rovers goals scored this season when Marquis was on the pitch, compared to those when he is not.Astute point, albeit still early days in the season: With Marquis 532 mins, 15 goals scored Without Marquis 458 mins, 2 goals scored Wow! Now that's what I call a stat'. I didn't realise until I read your post, so thanks.

That’s fair….. personally for they amount he’ll cost (reckon £750k plus and I just don’t see us paying that sort of money) and his age (29?) I think he’s had a fairly long and established career playing in a certain way that has been successful for him and it’s late (and a risk) trying to mould him into a different type of no 9….. take your point re Marquis but I’d always known him as a hard working energetic forward so whilst i agree he’s evolved his game with us - he was already in that mindset and had the base foundations…. I do think JB could get the most out of JCH but personally I think he’s the right player but the wrong time for us as he wouldn’t fit immediately to how we play and it would take a while to shape him…. Personal view which could be completely wrong! 😊 rather have marquis up there hassling and harrying making space for the globetrotters behind him to exploit. They will get the goals needed and will also be prepared to do the hard yards in a game. Absolutely! Marquis has been excellent so far, and rather unlucky with his goal attempts. I'd rather have him upfront for us, with his team spirit, than someone who is a loner.

Two things: On commentary sounded like a bit of a surrender. And, if you don't shoot you can't score.

A signing that would show intent,especially with the new investors, it won’t happen, is JCH if it costs a million or two and smashes our club record, you’re looking at 20-25 goals, like I say it won’t happen, but that’s what you need to do to get out this league, or grow your own and those particular fruits are taking a while to grow.Anyone know what has happened to the lad who played in most of our pre-season games, with us long enough to get a nickname (Toto), and was described as a "diamond" by our assistant manager. Seems to have disappeared off the scene.

Always amazes me how people can move next to something and then complain about it knowing full well it was there when they moved in. Bit like those who move next to motor racing circuits and try to get the racing stopped. Or buying a house next to a school and then phoning the school at 3.15pm to say that there were some noisy kids walking past their house. I had to take the calls..... See......I realise now that it was a mistake buying a house next to the parish church. Sunday mornings, when me and the missus are having a little "lie-in" the bells start ringing. They always ring at the same tempo. If only I could get them to start slowly, then gradually build up speed, then perhaps slow down for a while, then gradually build up speed and finish with a cascading crescendo!!! .........;;it would be much more acceptable.
