Did you just get signal?

Davud lowe as been going through personal things last season - yet people thinking he is an insider yet got caretakers job - if he was the insider then wouldnt he of be ruled good enough to be the actual manager ???

We had Dennis, Woodrow, Yuki, Dolan, Weimann and Gueye as possible starters up top last season and now we have Gueye and Yuki. It just doesn't make any sense to me

I really hope Pasha and Gestede aren't at Walkers memorial. Disgrace to his name.

Be quite happy to have him right now . Given a run of games sure he'd do the business..

Can't see who he will replace in the Derby midfield.

So our captain wants to leave …. After playing 1 game for us this season he realised what a joke this club is.. Odds on for Derby?

Seen the game now after much hesitation, my ratings: Michalski (4) - wasn't at fault for the first goal but the second one is schoolboy error stuff. Looked like he learned from it and started playing less risky afterwards. Still, he gives me no confidence being no.2 behind Toth and needs to go out on loan. Wharton (4) - first 90 minutes after a long-term injury. His first touch was poor many times which resulted in him getting caught out of position when losing the ball. Not a starter for me at this moment. Miller (5) - A bit up and down performance-wise. Showed again his prowess with the long throws which led to our goal but struggles a bit with athleticism. Would much rather see him playing at center back than right back, however. Pickering (6) - did fairly well. No real mistakes from his part. Provides good competition with Ribeiro at left back. Montgomery (1) - kinda brutal to throw this kid in and tout him as the next big thing coming from the academy. Was partially at fault for the first goal as he took Miller's position and marked a player centrally in the box when the cross came in. Several misplaced passes and robbed off possession in dangerous areas as well when moved into central midfield from right back. I would say his current level is National League (5th tier). Needs to be loaned out. Tronstad (5) - clumsy challenge for the booking as he should've dealt with the situation better. Otherwise quite anonymous. Tavares (7) - our best player for the night. Looked composed on the ball, played with one touch, good drive and vision as well. Bradford saw this though and starting fouling him with a couple of late challenges. Hopefully he came out of it unscathed after being substituted on the 70-minute mark. Definite starter for me against Birmingham. De Neve (6) - frustrating to watch at times. Has decent pace and engine, a willing presser as well but his crosses and set pieces are poor. One cross in particular looked more like a powerful shot that went straight to Gueye's head. Wasted an opportunity when trying to place the shot but later took his goal well when taking the ball past his marker inside the box with one touch. A starter but he seriously need to work on his end product. Henriksson (2) - this signing scares me for all the wrong reasons. His mobility on the pitch and lack of vision is reminiscent of JRC. Was partially at fault for the first goal for not scanning/checking for opposition player arriving at the far post. Looks clumsy, lacks technique and his overall movement/agility is slow. Mixed two decent passes forward to Gueye with several other misplaced passes as well. Not a starter for me. Tyjon (5) - looked out of his depth at times and didn't seem to have confidence in his abilities. One moment in particular in first half during a transition where he had the chance to go for goal but decided to turn and play a backwards pass instead. Not the quickest but made some intelligent moves on the pitch. Decent first touch and technique as well for his age but made some passing errors as well. Would like to see him sign a professional contract with us (and not Arsenal) to then send him out on loan to perhaps a L2 side. Gueye (3) - frustrating as hell in this game. His timing in the aerial challenges where at times poor, often even static leading to being outjumped by opposition centre backs. Even more frustrating is he constantly drops deep or drifts out wide to the flank to receive the ball, even in final third leaving no aerial presence inside the box. Just wonder if this is coming from Ismael's instructions or if he feels he needs to be involved at all times? His strongest abilities aren't being used at this point. He needs to play with his back towards goal, hold off challenges, win aerial duels, play simple passes and attack the box when ball is in final third. Subs: Alebiosu (6) - wasn't as effective/influential as in the game against WBA. Still, a clear starter for me at right back. Cantwell (6) - showed his class a couple of times with his technique, tempo and passing skills. Clear starter as he's a key player for the team. Kargbo (3) - more convinced than ever that he's being used on the wrong flank. One particular transition moment with Cantwell on the ball (centre), Gueye (out on the right flank for some reason) and Kargbo on the left; Cantwell opted to pass it to Kargbo, he then stops his run, cuts inside and immediately loses possession. Underutilized just like Gueye. A starter but only as a right winger. Ohashi (N/A) - came in relatively late, had a great opportunity to level the score but sent his header straight at the keeper from close range. Overall assessment: thought our pressing was poor and unsynced in the first half. Upped the tempo a bit in the second but quality in final third was lacking with keeper rarely tested. Worrying that a lot of players meant to be backups or competing for a starting spot weren't up to standards. Squad is looking fragile at the moment.

Strange no link to E Dennis who is available maybe on a free... He didn't show anything here though

People need to start acting and stop spending in the concourse its simple let them have no customers before and half time- banners need to be up constant Pasha and gestede havent a brain cell between them - time for a big revolt - the senior players are doing it and theres a reason why if they can then supporters can enough is enough

Eustace sending Lowe on scouting duty was nothing to do with surplus coaches.

Think Gueye thought he would be the nr one to lead the line....been messed with in pre season. Normally you want to show the manager he made som wrong decisions... But Gueye?

Was Shefki better than Gueye?

We’re in big big trouble now attack wise. Our star striker (Yuki) was purchased for virtually nothing, as were nearly all the players around him. There’s clearly a flat out refusal to pay decent fees for players and you can’t afford that in attack anymore in the Championship. Gaslit by Gestede. Championship players cost millions!

Plenty on Twitter

Tronstad has taken the armband in Travs absence previously, I'm sure he'll have it again for 12 months before leaving.

Who's declared that?

Wrong example to compare to you saying Mowbray/raya - that’s a coach/manager who works with the players and other players competing for the same position daily to make a judgement call - some right some wrong fans who only see games and nothing else to declare a player completely useless after approx 90mins of football is simply wrong

Bolton signed Ibrahim Cissoko, weren't we linked last season?

Have you read the minutes yet?

Travis will not be in the squad.

@J*B @K-Hod Well Josh and Kenny, you've clearly got double standards on 'flaming' with what you allow and what you don't. No need to ban me, done with BRFCS.COM.

After watching Big Club v Ipswich I realise just how much Big Club are arrogantly deluding themselves that they're going to waltz into the play offs. A sense of self righteous destiny. I'm not so much worried about us in this match, we're going to lose, but more the horrible reality that they might be right. That would mean they are head and shoulders better than us which is so hard to take when they were so rubbish two seasons ago. Are we so far fallen that I fear watching Birmingham fans partying in the Darwen End. I hate what Venkys have done to us. Why do I feel so bereft of hope and expectation --- other that the copious amounts of booze I've just consumed. Damn them. Set 'em up Joe.

Kyogo will be licking his lips after watching last nights game.

They’re not going anywhere mate unfortunately, nobody is going to pay the money that they'd want. Shit show.
