Okay so while we had this missing gap in time here, a few things have happened. The friendlies? Well I don’t put much, rather any, stock in them, so I’ll just say that there were some good and bad things. We still have one more left, against NAC Breda on Saturday so we’ll see what [...]

Only problem is, I know pretty much nothing about him.
And unless you’re a South American reader (or world football anorack), you probably don’t either.
However, what I do know has excited me somewhat. His name is Carlos Villanueva (no, not the Brewers pitcher…), a 22 year old Chilean, and he has come from Audax [...]

Well with the giant, and very tasteless, snubbing Mr. Shearer gave us, I’ve taken some time and have put together these thoughts.
• I am extremely happy that Shearer will not be out next manager. While some people may want him or may have had him as the number one on their list, my opinion is [...]

Lets have a lookie:
Name: Alan Shearer
Odds: 5-4
History: No managerial experience, but a Rovers legend on the pitch.
Pros: Shearer would certainly be an exciting appointment. He seems to have a good knowledge of the game, he would certainly have the respect of the players (and may convince our key ones to stay), and he [...]

One of the comments in Jim’s liveblog was “Friedel for President” - I couldn’t agree more. Friedel has to be one of the most underrated keepers in the world, and we’ll miss him when his time is up, especially as our defence looks really shakey in recent times.
