Belshaw could have done better on their goal. Not so sure after seeing all angles. TV coverage very good I don't think much of the commentary

I may be wrong but I don’t think he ever said 12 new signings? I thought he said he wanted to sign up to 12 players, some of which may already be in the building… If I’m right then I think we have signed 8 players with 4 to go….? - Wilson - Thomas - Friend - Jones - Grant - Greenslade - Ward - Brown I think we’ll maybe see 1 or 2 new perms and the rest loans. For me I think the squad is in a healthy shape but we could do with a little more to make us a top end challenging side when everyone is fit… think it’ll be a GK, left sided CB, winger / midfielder and LB… if we lose Collins then a forward will be needed and for every player we lose then we’ll need a replacement who is hopefully an improvement over the player lost Well "Joey Barton targets 12 for Bristol Rovers with eyes on Coburn and Bogarde as Plymouth lead way After the expiry of loans and inevitable departures, Joey Barton expects to make around 12 signings for Bristol Rovers in what is set to be a crucial summer if the club is to mount a bigger challenge in League One next season" www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/joey-barton-targets-12-bristol-8388356Reads like 12 new additions to me. Really??? "I think we need to sign at least 12 players, that’s the reality," he said. "We’re going to lose a few and, obviously, loans are going to be included in that. "I think some of those players are in that dressing room for sure. Some of the performances tonight, certainly Grant Ward. He’s been exceptional. Can we get a couple of the lads back? Lamare on loan? Maybe, possibly. Josh Coburn? Maybe, I don’t know.

Cheers for the list Pirate. The issue is that it doesn't look like there are many players in similar situations to Collins. Most players on the list seem to be either younger or had experience of already having played in higher leagues. Looking at the list makes it seem like the 5million some are quoting is probably too high, but somewhere closer to 2 seems more realistic. If you then take out whatever Taylor is worth to Stoke, I'm guessing we end up somewhere around 750k + Taylor? I was thinking around the £2m-£2.5m mark is around the top end figure we could expect. We do not need to sell, so why accept less than our valuation JB says it would take £4m

Wow….. some of the comments on here are just unbelievable! I swear some of the belittling comments on the quality, technique and skill of the women’s game must have been made by people who haven’t actually watched much women’s football in the last 5 years or more as it is so much stronger and better quality than what they’ve made out. I agree with the notion that the men and women’s game is different. The quality, technique etc is no less where I see differences is in the women’s game it tends to be: - more honest - there’s none of this rolling around feigning injury - on average more exciting and end to end - less about money - more invested in community and more fan engagement - a little less physical but not hugely so - better sportspersonship with genuine respect for the referee and opponents And I’d say the lionesses would easily give a strong EFL / championship side a run for their money, if not beat them. If you watch their play, shape, support and movement as well as defensive actions, they are solid. It’s only up front where I’d say it’s inconsistent finishing sometimes Wrexham recently stuffed the USA woman's team. www.marca.com/en/football/2023/06/03/647a59f322601d3b3b8b45ed.html The rest of your points I agree with

Mikkel Anderson, my favourite Rovers Keeper was Danish. I think my biggest apprehension is he played for a club that recently got relegated for 2 Bundisliga. But let’s be honest, none of of us know anything about the bloke. Anyone witness Michel Kuipers' one and only appearance in goal for Rovers away to Bournemouth. The biggest cheer of the night was when he managed to kick the ball upfield and keep it in play. Yes I saw the game, his kicking was truly appalling
