There’s about 7 of these Mowbrayed youngsters on the pitch right now - damn him!!! The other four are all Dolan it seems - two of him just robbed the keeper and scored.

Chapman had a cruciate ligament injury, which I suspect has brought him back a worse player given the strengths of him that we saw in glimpses. I also recall him being dire in more than one game for us, so I think there's a bit of a myth that he was this wonderkid until Mogga got hold of him. Chappers was managed by Mowbray for a reasonable time in our League One campaign, and if he didn't like his manager, I'm fairly certain that he wouldn't have signed. it is`nt just chapman though is it,he criticises rothwell,gallagher a few times last season,does`nt appear to think davenport exists,not sure what happened with mahoney,maybe he saw what was coming and got out,i don`t rate mowbrays man management,it`s terrible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wing Wizard Windy Miller Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 If I was a manager, I'd be looking at all the problems and goals caused by playing out from the back at goal kicks and telling my CB to push up to the half way line and let the keeper leather it out. It seems crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of positives tonight: - If you didn’t know any different, you’d swear BB was the 17-goal man and Arma the nervy youngster. - I quite like Johnston sitting deep, he has a good long pass - JR-C is quality in the final third, not so much in our third - Dolan!!! He gets everywhere and always seems to make good choices. - Fisher looked pretty good. On the downside: - Chapman, Rothwell ineffective, Rothwell dragging a shot wide from a great position. Taxi for Evans. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ossydave Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 That second half was pretty turd wasn't it. I think it also displayed how far Blackpool have fallen, I mean we didn't completely destroy them but they struggled stringing a few passes together. Dolan excites me, I hope this ain't just gonna be a pre season thing and he gets some game time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ossydave Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Just now, OnePhilT said: Eastham had virtually nothing to do in the second half, but his distribution looked class. I think between Fisher and Eastham, we can get away without signing another keeper; use those funds elsewhere. There's also Joe Hilton, but not sure what's going on with him. The game became a bit scrappy in the second-half once Blackpool dragged us down in the mud for a fight, but it was another good workout. Looking good so far. Yep I was thinking the same about Eastham and his distribution. Don't think we saw much of his other goalkeeping abilities though to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taxi for Evans. Watched Dolan tonight and against Fleetwood. IMO he's the real deal. Obviously young and slight but he's oozing talent and desire. I think we may have a player on our hands. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a young left back there in their 18s who could be our left back for the next 10 years and hes a rovers fan. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazza Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I'm happy with the young squad we've got. OK, it was only a friendly but we only need a good left back bringing in. Both Wharton and Carter did well. Dolan is a gem. BB looking good. And we don't need another keeper as a sub. Fisher and Eastham look quite capable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
