Can we recall O'Riordan?

Not till Jan sadly. Playing well at Donny by all accounts

It sows some dedication to having a right footed centreback to play him ahead of McCloughlin.

CB is such a positioning dependent role.. not having experience there and with your partner can be a big challenge. Seen lots of players who are not used to it get lost at sea.

imagine that when in possession, our 4-2-3-1  will become a back 3 with Miller and Ribeiro flanking Wharton, allowing Alebiosu to push forward

Tavares is out

hopefully back in training during October international break, which presumably means not playing until November

I’m keen to see how TGH gets on. Actually think he may be a better player than Tavares so he’s got a good chance to stake a claim to a starting position.

Getting his experience ready for our relegation

Is Big Gueye now bleach blonde?  Incoming Sammie esq season for me 

[moerpho]

So…still getting used to this new squad so honestly I don’t know quite what to think. A lot of new guys who I’ve not seen enough from. Hoping Alebiosu continues his good form and be interesting to see Morishita and Gardner-Hickman. Considering the opposition I’ll gladly take a draw. COYB!!

[neophox]

Wharton almost scored

[neophox]

With Miller we got corners every time

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Henrikson must be crap if he can't get on that bench. 

[moerpho]

Positive start from Rovers. Should mention Toth who feels like on level with Kaminski when he was here.

I assumed he was injured. Is he just not in the squad? 

 

[moerpho]

Ohashi should do better, but good to get a finish on goal

[neophox]

TGH already on a yellow

[Tom]

He was out with a broken hand previously so may be still the case 

[moerpho]

Trondstad back to his awesome self this game. Something has happened with Hedges as well. He is beginning to look like a football player. Now he needs to become a good one.

Not too good though or he will be sold.

We'll sell him regardless once his contact gets low.

PNE winning at Derby 0-1

Not very impressed by Ipswich this far. Seems that poster from Ipswich was pretty spot on in his analysis of his team. A bit boring this, isn’t it?

[imy9]

TGH is looking good. A couple of lovely passes and aggressive in his general play.

(As Tyrone would rightly point out) - playing the very left-footed Hedges on the LEFT wing and suddenly he looks a much better player. It's not rocket science - although lots of the modern day coaches like to make out it is!
