Laziest group of players I've ever seen. Not one prepared to graft.

What about your loan signings from Catalan last season ????….wow,you got 4 players out on loan and doing it the right way.Dragging something up from 2 years ago when we was injury hit and did draft in loan players and some of the young ones and still beat the Man City rovers.

Bishop is talking rubbish they have loaned out young players for years, all teams do it including us with Litten, Staverley, Balmforth and Severs.

Not sure why he is making out like it's some kind of Rovers initiative.

No I didn't say anything about any Rovers initiative did I.

I'm just pointing out that you're playing the youth because it's been forced on you by financial restraints, not by choice, you'd no doubt rather send them out on

loan obviously but because of Pearsons cutbacks you can't, even though there not physically ready.

Not sure why you are making out Rovers are doing it the right way while we aren't when we have done the sane thing as you, just a year or so ahead, look at Staveley, loaned out and would now be classed as a regular if it wasn't for his injury.

That's not true though, Smith could play someone like Harman or Balmforth, who are older and more experienced than Charkes. Same for Moy with Litten. Martin over Tindall this week is another example.


Both clubs have disappointed with the bringing of youth players through over the years, but that's one area we are better at than Rovers, previously and now.
