He could go to plan B right now and sign players to keep you happy Alan, but he ain't going to, sorry! but we’ve missed out on targets? So surely we already are on plan B C etc...?I stand by what I said last night we haven't missed out, until today that is.But Moore has said himself that we’ve missed out on some players.Yep he did. But it's all about interpretation. this makes no sense. How can you interpret it any other way?Well, firstly it depends if the target is confirmed or not. Are they definitely a target or just a name on a list? Have negotiations begun with the parent club, player or agent? Are they part of plan A or Plan B?So, depending on who you ask, the answer to, 'have we lost any targets?' could be completely different. And that, unfortunately, is the reason for the mix up here.

Quote from: Bentley Bullet on January 18, 2020, 09:28:11 amIn the days when we got all our information from the Evening post, there was no promise of second-tier football within 5 years and claims of top-six budgets.But social media hadn't created that belief of entitlement to know everything then.

Social media provides a platform for super-fans to tell everyone else how to support their club properly. It puts the noses out of those people who have supported the club passionately for donkey's years to read that they've been doing it wrong. In its modern purity, it is becoming more a case worshipping your club than supporting it. To object to anything is blasphemous, and anyone who does object should f**k off and support the devil.John Ryan was much maligned for the 'Destination Championship' slogan, yet the present day's board claims of Championship football in 5 years provided by a top-six budget should be unquestioned.
Understood Hound, but there must be around 20 pages of ‘discussion’ on the same subject with crazy conspiracy theories, unfounded criticism and general wum’s thrown in the mix! Has SM deliberately misled anyone? NoHas LH deliberately misled anyone? NoHad there been an honest misunderstanding? Possibly Remember the days when you got all your Rovers info from the back of the Evening Post? Some people now believe that they’ve a right to be told whatever they want by the club, and if that doesn’t happen, on their terms, then there’s some ulterior motive at work! The world gone mad...or maybe I have.

And it was a very busy day yesterday, I do have a proper job you know!
I have just had a look at the bbc sport website and numerous clubs are still signing players.Does anyone think that those clubs are just going out and signing anyone or are they signing players that their managers have targeted.

Not correct actuallyThey never made any bids for marquis until the final day. They were just trying to get anyone in they also bid for this Shrewsbury lad we are after
Keith79'SM don't you work for the club?'No he doesn't. He's a fan like everyone else, but a fan who works tirelessly (like many others up and down the country) for the club he supports (or in SM's case) football supporters in general.Rovers are very lucky - believe it or not - to have SM in their bank of supporters!
