In the past when a loan player had a good spell here I always had a justification for them coming back.. but I just haven't got that for Billy. He should step up to the Championship at a minimum and deserves to. If he ends up back here i'll be both baffled and buzzing.

Like this, happy with any of these behind a new out and out left winger. Drop the background music, add some crowd noise and a theme tune. And film at the ground or in a pub. It's all about opinions I suppose - I thought the music added to the humour!

If it happens good luck to him. He saved us from relegation and left us in the top 4 of League 1. Honestly, why wouldn’t or shouldn’t we wish him good luck. 😉 UTG! You could say that. You could also say we gave him his first shot at management, he jumped ship at an important time of the season at the first opportunity, and sent us into a spiral we have yet to recover from! Perception, eh

Gutted to hear this, at the FFSC events he was always a great laugh. Stood out as one of the nicest blokes you could meet. RIP

At the risk of sounding negative, aren’t those responsibilities what the Social media manager should be doing? Do we have to employ two people for that? This is a marketing role around the commercial side of the club rather than a social media manager by the looks of things.

The lineup prediction was impossible...

Donny seem to be gagging to get rid of Omar Bogle. I'm surprised we haven't gone all in for him tbh.

Sometimes players become available late in the window, especially loans due to other moves.
I've got a feeling we'll get a striker that so far hasn't even been linked.
Although Leon Clarke appears to be coming in too, as long as a squad player then, shrug.

Antony Evans surely a straight swap for Westy

Not for me - stood out a bit at the start because everyone else was sh*t.

Surprised (well, I'm not actually) about the negativity. I said on the first GasCast we recorded of the summer that Akinde would be my number one striker target. Powerful, a handful, previously promoted from L2. He is not the player he was when last here. I'd have been chuffed with him down the middle.

Feels like one of the only marginally positive things going on at the club over the last couple of years is the improvements on the commercial side. This strikes me that some are seeing attempts to improve the club as an insult to their position. Hardly surprising given they've been out of touch and unnecessary for years now.
These statements should be kept on the playground. Frankly, with everything going on at the moment, the idea the SC would put this statement out now is a shambles and reflects poorly on them, no one else.

Hey everyone, Some of you might already know, but I've been working hard over the last year to build an app for football fans, called FanHub. I know all too well supporting Rovers that it's a thankless task - our crazy ambition is to see fans recognised and rewarded for the value they contribute to the game. We've had a great start so far, but obviously I'm pretty bias and would love to see more Gasheads representing the club! It's currently invite-only (I don't want the servers to fall over again!), but it'd be awesome to get some feedback from some fellow gasheads so I've included a code below for you to get in if you're up for it. Download here: fan-hub.com/download-fanhub/ 📲 Skip the waitlist with: ys-916 or ys-951 Let me know if those codes run out and I'll try sort you out with another.UTG Cheers, Harley.

The stadium question is always left too wide open for side steps. Needs to ask a more direct question. In how many years time will we see Rovers playing in their own new built stadium ? 3-5 years 5-7 years 7-10 years Further away than that. Never. Sam then needs to push for one of those answers. If a sidestep forthcomes, he has to reply. "That was waffle so Rovers fans can therefore take that answer as meaning never" Then quickly move on to another question. Thus not giving time for more political speak. That question would not get a useful answer because Wael and his team cannot know the answer. A fairer question is "When do you want to make progress on a new stadium?". I expect his answer, however, would be "2 years ago".

Was someone previously employed to do that job? I believe it may be to replace Will Dubey who has moved on. No idea if he was paid employment or not. Will Dubey left the club in Jan 2020. His job title was fairly similar. This role is just one role in a wider team, I think the screenshots chosen have hugely misrepresented it tbh. It's essentially an opportunity for a placement for a uni student.

The one thing I will say is that the tweet in question clearly took the two screenshots that made this look the worst. Reading the actual job ad, there is further info that it would suit as a placement year, which gives it important context.
Classic Twitter this, selecting specific info and everyone taking it as gospel.

I used to be pretty active on here 10~ years ago. My username actually comes from the fact GGMI called me a FanBoyNerd for liking Apple products 😅
I haven't been using the forum much in a while but recently I've started reading more again.

Collins possibly more of a second striker/winger and same could maybe be said about Saunders, I would like to see us sign a central striker with more of a physical presence just as a different option. It's a shame Hulbert hasn't played in pre season as he seems to fit that profile. You mean someone like Ayunga? Preferably one that can put the ball in the net
