From someone who watches Rovers regularly (wife is a fan) Ollie Clarke the captain is an average league one player, be concerned if he is the level we are aiming for. Clake Harris is better and could probably do a job. Career has only got going last few years. Terrible attitude though always moaning at teammates.
I would be very underwhelmed if we brought those 2 in.

You dont have a clue who they are do you?
Other than the fact they play for Bristol Rovers which is absolutely no sign of how good a player is or not
I love bows but find it fascinating a manager who has won 1 in 16 or whatever holds the aces.
Comments like this are why managers are sacked constantly and hardly any English football team has consistency at management level. You say you love him then say you don’t understand why he holds the aces.
Probably because of what he achieved last season and what he achieved at the beginning of this season and the fact that even with our tiny current fit squad we’re not yet in relegation.
Maybe, just maybe, ESI have faith in Bowyer to turn our form around and so are willing to give him the contract he’s requested.
'there are gonna be marquee signings' Clarke is a league 1 typical try hard Midfielder, don't get me wrong he would get in our team now probably but if we do sign him people will have to take the blinkers off and stop saying that we are waiting for the 'right type of player' mid table league 1 cheap and average isn't what we were sold.
As for JCH, he has a left peg and I wanted him before but he has had a poor season so far and he is a sick note. I'll tell you who hasn't, Gnanduillet and he would cost less. JCH has been quoted for over a mill before so why would we spend that on an injured out of form striker in the same league?
Panic over for me, he is going to raise the squads spirits by buying them the latest tech
Except he said “not always spending lots of money”. He didn’t say never spending lots of money.
Why is it a bad thing for ESI to focus on technology and development to solve our ridiculous injury list this season?
We’ve all said one of the reasons for injuries has been Roland wrecking our budgets. We now have someone willing to pay for the best specialists to come over and take a look at our setup.

It's tongue in cheek, I am fully aware this is something that needs sorting but there is no point in it right now, the damage is done in that department, the fix is replacements.
Are there any quotes anywhere about Nimer mentioning Bowyer? As in what kind of job he thinks he is doing etc
If there is a serious issue with sports medicine at the club, and this and previous years shows there is, then investing in that and the tech, be it better equipment in the medical suites at SL, access to better doctors or better tech to track players performance, is needed.
Investing in sports science that keep a squad fit is better then a squad of 30 to cope with injuries that can be stopped
12 days to do our business. No idea what’s happening with Taylor but we need a player who is going to score ten goals between now and the end of the season. Pretty much anything less will undo all Bowyers hard work last season. Defence are clearly unable to keep a clean sheet and at a bare minimum we need a commanding partner for Lockyer. Yes I’m worried.

10..?! I think 5 or 6 is more realistic. That would put the player in the 1 in 3 category (at worse).....which is pretty good these days. 1 in 2 and you're talking promotion material. 10 in 16 you'd be having to pay millions.
I can just see how an inquiry to West Brom would go.
Gallen: “Slaven it’s Steve, given how we have a good relationship with you after the Leko and Field signings, we are interested in Harper”
Bilic: “Hi Steve, Oh you mean the Leko who is out for the season and Field who has been injured for a few months”
Gallen: “yes those 2, we are confident that our injury curse has gone”
Gallen: “Slaven, Slav......Slaven can you hear me? Slav it’s Steve Gallen......Slav, are you still there”
Bowyer - How did the Harper conversation go Steve? Yes, was very positive, think Slaven must have gone through a tunnel or something though. I’m sure he will call back. Just in case, who did you say was number 75 on our wish list? Did you say it was Andre Green?

Doubt it’s a premier team.

This is starting to stink

How true that is I don't know.
Clearly more can be done but not sure it's always the medics fault.
QPR maybe but they have loaned us players before and apart from sending them back injured they have done well : - )

It works for me if the 36 year old helps keep us up. The 29 year old may not be with us in August anyway.

Don't knock our 'unique' medical department.
