I thought we would of heard something by now. What's the hold up? Pre season starts next week.

Are you sleeping alright?

last article I read, P Diddy said he hoped to have things sown up by the end of this week

Maybe they are waiting for better offers

Is he doing the pitch as well?
-
Holiday, other offers, still ironing out the last bit, waiting to see what else comes in, waiting to see what else we might do, waiting for agents to be available or even for some they may have a slight cut in terms and be waiting to as close to the end of their deal as possible.
Loads of reasons and I don't blame them, for a footballer it could be a big 2-3 year committment and they don't have the opportunity to easily move on like many of us.
-
yeah but they earn an awful lot more money than most of us.

don't panic Mr Mainwaring.

It,s Mannering!
-
No it isn't. It's Mainwaring as the OP stated.

Six out of ten for getting three and four-letter everyday words wrong Rob? That's mighty generous mate.
-
Mainwaring is one of those quirks of the English language when it comes to pronunciation. Bit like Cholmondley - pronounced chumley, Towcester - pronounced Toaster and Siobhan - pronounced Chevaughan. Iwouldn't have it any other way ;o)

Grammer squad out again.

How much do you charge an hour?
-
......you could have so played that Wiz. To be hoped your Maths is a better if you're self employed!!!! ;o)

The signing(s) are the last formality. I'm sure there are plenty of verbal agreements between club and player but no doubt the paper work goes back and forth between the players representatives and the club, clauses to be ratified or amended here and there.
This is where Gavin and his staff are quite busy at the moment and I'm sure they don't want to announce anything until everything is in place.
Hopefully, as were are patient, good things will happen. Just wish they'd bloody well get on with it!!
-
I have heard on the grapevine that there are a couple of players ready to sign but there has been a bit of an issue with contract details. Apparently they have been checking on the forum to see what Rovers fans are like and have insisted that a couple of the bigger moaners are shifted out before they put crayon to paper. Sounds creditable to me but maybe the Mods know more?

He's got 99 problems but the pitch ain't one. Oh, hang on, that was someone else

Cant have 1 rule for one and one ruel for enougher!!! As a very dyslexic person myself i find it shocking you a mod? are alowwed to communt like you did!
-
Spelling is different to grammar.
-
It is still wrong to pick others out for communting on peoples posts then end up doing the same themselfs.
-
Yes. RTR was a very naughty boy ! Anyone, think he were a school teacher or summat.
100 lines Rob. " I was wrong to chastise a fellow, valued Rovers fan!"

Yes you are new, so I would bite my lip before offering certain opinions. So far you've made 8 posts and not a single one of them has been positive. Maybe you should consider what you write before criticising others.
-
As Stu says, respond to the post, not the poster.
He may have a point.

Where in the rules does it say you have to be positive in posts? Iv relised this site forum hates any communt that could be classed as negative, why is this? I thought this place was for opinions? It seems this place is scard of negativity becos they dont want to upset the people at the club.
I am dyslexic and the post by RobTheRover offended me as a forum reader and now poster

Then if you are upset by a post then you should report it to a moderator and it will be looked at.

Ok sorry i am new so didnt think of reporting the post. Thats why i just commentud. I will report it now if thats the correct wat to go about it
-
Please excuse my ignorance and don’t take offence at my perhaps naive question, but is spell checker available on the forum and would it help those with dyslexia? If not are there other software options that would help?
Whilst I appreciate that there are differing types and degrees of dyslexia, one of the guys who works from me suffers from it but manages his e-mail communications very well by using spell checker.
We can all comment that the content is more important than the presentation, but it’s a common occurrence on most forums for topics to go off thread because of poor grammar, lack of punctuation and poor spelling / text talk, etc
anyway, keep on contributing :scarf:
-
It would probebly take me 4 days per post if i used spellchecker lol. I do try hard when posting though
-
Maybe I should have had a little more understanding, wanchopeDickov, but our=are and have=of proper f#&k's me off.
That's not dyslexia, and it's not hard for people to get right. Please try everyone, for my sake. Please. People who struggle with dyslexia yet still come on here and try damn hard have my utmost respect.

And if you use Firefox as your browser there is an English dictionary plug in. It underlines misspelt words, just like Ms Word, so you just need to right click and select the spelling you want.
I'm sure everyone on the forum appreciates posts which are easy to read.

Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew. :P

Maybe we should have a splinter forum just for all the dyslexics and crap spellers. That way they wont be coming on here winding all of us pedants up!
-
Gents - we've gone a little off topic here. :s
Back on topic- a simple answer as to why players are taking so long to sign is we are a small fish in a huge pond, and the types of players we now want to attract probably have to think long an hard before signing for us, instead of another championship club.
-
Good point, Thank you.

That is what the Rovers group on Facebook is for......is it not?
-
I'm not to bothered about signing new players. I'm more concerned about our out of contract players signing new deals. We start pre season next week and not one player has signed a new deal.
-
I think all our players are on holidays till the 24th June aren't they?

Silent Majority,
You don't own this forum, and Wanchope is entitled to put what he wants on here (subject to acceptable standards - ie racist (which we've had recently) sexist, bad language (which we have all the time) verbal abuse, etc etc. without being criticised by you or anyone else.
If Wanchope feels he needs to post something negative, that is his prerogative.
What you need to realise is that some people will only come on here when they are particularly displeased with something so as to be able to have a good moan (maybe Wanchope is one of these) some people only come on here when everything in the garden is rosy. The majority will come on good and bad. Either way, everyone is entitled to their opinion without being told to 'bite their lip' etc etc
-
... bad language (which we have all the time)
... Do we f**kers like!! ;)
-
Haha!
Still trying to work out what the complete word would be without the ** etc!
-
Turn your swear filter off and read it.

For someone who refers to himself as a "proper c*nt" on their own twitter page, I think we all knew "Wanchope" intentions when he signed up to the forum a day ago. He also pretended to have dyslexia, which isn't very nice (https://twitter.com/Rupee92/status/346959810916409344). and he broke the forum rules by registering multiple accounts after being previously banned. So no, he isn't entitled to post his opinions on here any more. If you still want them, maybe check out his twitter page?
Now, last chance peeps - if this thread goes off topic again I'll just lock it, ok? :aok:
-
You might as well lock it. The original theme was pretty pointless.
-
Don't take this the wrong way or nothing, but I'm prety new on this rovers website thing and my impresions so far have been - 1 don't mess with the vsc directors. 2 only talk about what the vsc want you to talk about. 3 don't be new and have an opinion or you get told (and this was that "silentm" fella) "you're new, think before you post"! Jesus, is this north korea? Don't exactly make me wanna join the vsc. And I was thinkin of joinin too!

I see Filo has offered him out on Twitter. Bravo.
-
Thanks to BJW's kind link, we can all see that.
Questionable mod etiquette.
-

Point me to where any violence was mentioned!
He's being abusive towards me on social networks without provocation, I'm happy to meet him face to face to discuss his issues regarding my weight, he won't meet because he's a coward that says things behind the safety of a keyboard!

What would you do or say to him if he met you in person?

Is that not a Rhetorical question ?. Can I ask are Wanchopdikov and Craigyboy and Doncasterroversfc one in the same person. Remarkable if they are not.
