More Leaving

Looks like anyone on big wages will be on their way- Robbo next.

Why this has only just been decided now is slightly beyond me. However managing the team is more than slightly beyond Kean so I am not too bothered about my lack of understanding.

No doubt Peds was given a once in a lfetime offer to drop his wages by 50%. This would not keep him in 'rinse' for the week- being more than slightly bald Kean has no idea how much hair like that costs.

Anyone got any idea where this light at the end of the tunnel is?

The light at the end of the tunnel is a train coming the other way. I can only see us going downward. Uncle Shebby said in his interview that nothing but automatic promotion is acceptable. Since these idiots took over everything they said would happen, the opposite has happened, and everything that wouldnt happen has happened. I think I would feel more confident if they said our aim is relegation.

"Why this has only just been decided now is slightly beyond me. "

Exactly. They have had all pre-season to get shut of him. Why leave it till two weeeks to go before the start of the season, unless worried about yet more negative fan reactions. Who next?

The vast majority of the new squad should have been in place 3-4 weeks before the start of the season. Ready to go. Standard practice. Yet 5 are made available only today?

This shower are amazingly thick, there is no other explanation for how badly we prepared for last season and how poorly we are preparing this time round.

Miles- it is only a light if our friends have their backs to the train and cannot hear it coming.

Maybe they left it late because they thought they'd sell more season tickets if it looked like we were only adding to the squad and not selling.

you've got to love how we seem to be trying to get rid of the likes of Petrovic, Slew, Goodwillie, all Kean signings that have only been at the club a year. Yet Venkys are still allowing the clown to make judgements on which players are suitable for our club.

His transfer success record is about 1 in 10, with decent amounts of money to spend.

And we're supposed to believe him when he tells us the latest unknown he signs is going to be brilliant.

Slew is a young kid I can understand being sent on loan. Although surely he is a striker - why do we need so many (two) when we have Goodwillie (a Kean signing), Gomes (admittedly won't play every game), Slew (why did we buy him if not to get games - surely he should be able to play this level) and Blackman with Best to come back. One at most I would have thought and some friggin defenders.

Pedersen will be missed, by me and a series of others. Consistently in Rovers teams and a great servant who has deserved better. Will we lose him and Olssen (inevitable), leaving the lesser known Marcus as our left winger of choice.

The others (Linganzi, Blackman) I don't care nough about but Petrovic is intriguing. We hardly payed him and fair enough, should sell if not good enough but it all seems suspicious.

Losing Peds due to wages makes no sense after signing Gomes and Murphy...

Maybe they left it late because they thought they'd sell more season tickets if it looked like we were only adding to the squad and not selling.

Does anyone know how far down season ticket sales are on last season?
