Locally it's reported Rovers will replace Valarien Ismael with Wayne Rooney.

You couldn't make it up, you really couldn't. I despair. We jump from frying pan to fire employing a loser to replace a loser. Sigh.

Aw, c'mon. You are getting a famous loser. 😉

Sacking Mowbray was an odd move and it's just got odder and odder since then

I noticed over the weekend Bradley Dack scoring for Gillingham. I always thought he looked a good player. Did he fall out of favour at Rovers or have a bad injury?

He was much loved at Rovers and had two great seasons for us. He missed almost all of 2020 following a cruciate ligament injury. Almost as soon as he returned the club gave him a new deal, presumably for three years. He then injured his other cruciate and was out for another year. The harsh truth is with almost 2½ years out through injury he wasn't the player he had been. It was a great shame but obvious to everyone and no surprise when he was released.

The days when we had Danny Graham and Dack on the pitch were great to watch.

Yep. It was a bizarre sacking as well. He wasn't offered a new deal and simply left at the end of his contract.

I went to watch Burnley v WBA a few weeks back. I couldn't help but watch Mowbray in the technical area and wonder what on earth happened.

Rooney will be cheap

 

[PaulSB]

Rooney will be cheap

Ismael was cheap. If Rooney is cheaper he'll almost be paying us!

And that might be true

So the semi finals are decided in Champions League.
One team each from England, France, Spain and Italy

No German side in the semifinals this year.

I bought my ticket for Easter Monday's big game yesterday. Regardless of our result at Salford on Good Friday and Carlisle's result that day, Accy still need to beat fellow relegation candidates Carlisle to be almost, if not certainly safe from relegation. After Monday we play Walsall away, and Chesterfield at home on the last day of the season. Both clubs are in contention for promotion, so it's going to be tough.
