petehinton Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 A huge win away at the mighty Shrewsbury today. They wanted Barton out at HT it seems. He says Shrewsbury purposely change the pitch to make them not have their slick passing during the game. The gift! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon bristol Posted September 17, 2023 Report Share Posted September 17, 2023 Just spoke to someone in at rovers, asked about the clarke-harris transfer.,. His view is that rovers, probably deliberately, had agreed a weekly salary figure over the phone and when he came to sign they had provided a contract with a lower amount to try and save a few quid. everything then got renegotiated and time ran out on the deal, as we know. Apparently the mythical fax machine which i joked about isn’t actually a thing, not any more anyway, but it wasnt until past 11 that the deal was finally agreed and by then it wasnt possible to request the extension.

Wowza. That needs 500 of them to sign up for it to work. They've not yet reached that figure despite it being launched at the beginning of August & had someone from their club begging for them to sign up the other day.

Feel sorry for the kid having to put up with someone like Barton. Apparently it was to do with some comments James Piercy made pre-season in an article about Rovers. Ultimately it just shows what a fragile little princess Joey is*. Can't take the mildest of criticisms from journalists, punches opposition managers in the back of the head when they're not looking, attacks people with cigars to the eyes, and attacks women when he's pissed up.

Loyal & True my arse. https://www.bristolrovers.co.uk/news/2023/september/A-message-from-byron-anthony/ I'm at a loss as to what they are actually calling "An Academy"? They have a development team up until the age of 18 and then seem with the odd exception to drop them. There is no under 21 team at the club at all. Their development team normally uses the excellent facilities at SGS to train, alongside the SGS Academy teams run by David Hockaday that are full of players that have been released from Rovers alongside and other league clubs, plus Academies like BIC. Until Rover's actually spend some money and energy to developing their young players, they are always going to be in this cycle of 15 in, 15 out every season with no 3-5 plan around player development. Just like their crazy history of Stadium development, they appear knee jerk and non-consistent in any sort of approach that will bring sustainable long term player growth to the club. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
