I agree to a point, but then he did spent £6 million on a 19 year old

Missed you coming onto the pitch. Clearly it's ref 101 to look at a players socks after a tackle, I mean who needs VAR when you have socks? It's not as if socks could get dirty for any other reason or during any prior incidents. The ref last week must have missed that module in ref college. Seriously though, it was just a wrong call by the ref. As for Travis reaction, players who are far worse have made it to the very top levels of the game. I think it's good we have someone who dabbles in the dark arts. We were a soft touch for far too long. Plus something I think we will both agree on now, every single team is at it these days. Hate to see it, but that's the way it is. I agree with the last paragraph in theory, however saying refs used their common sense then perhaps gives them too much credit. The likes of George Best were subjected to numerous attempts at GBH per game. There is a line and we are definitely gone to far the opposite way now.

I thought Mowbray said something along the lines of the deal being ready to go if Rovers wish to proceed. I am sure there are a few coals in the fire.

You were critical of the Downing signing,weren't you?

The internet lied to me. That's decent enough to be fair. I think a season in League 1 would have done wonders for him

No goals or assists though, so I think it's debatable as to how well he is doing.

Great sign of a combatant player Can you imagine Roy Keane being bothered about that type of thing, or even Robbie Savage, who probably got worse than Keane. I think the crowd were actually afraid of Keane ?

The new Savage!

That's crazy

Power was decent last night. A longer episode. Have to say though, the Stevens/ Question mark segment was too long. They turned a good 30 second skit into a 5 minute slog. Sienna, I just don't get. Herself and Melinas promo was dreadful. It appears to me they just make the promos up on the fly. The ladies are not good at this. Some good matches overall, thought the endings were too similar in the Murdoch/Latimer and Aldis/Morton matches. Although, all things considered they did a good job on the Title match allowing for the fact Morton is almost 70. I think I will order the PPV. The last time I did this was about 7 years ago for a Royal Rumble.

Ya,Batth and Butland were excellent. Thought Gregory upfront was decent enough with what he had to work with.

How far is he away from making the Liverpool team though? When I watched their under 23s play Villa, they had a bald guy midfield,can't remember his name,he wasn't great on the ball,but he was far,far more athletic than Buckley. He was the worst of the centre mids and none of them are getting into that Liverpool first team any time soon . It's a great compliment if they are after him, but it's difficult to see him get near their first team.

Yes and they still cost the amount I said,when they signed doesn't change that. They released players to calm the wage bill,but they kept their £40 million strike force. I wouldn't go as far as saying I enjoy watching his team's,but he always exceeds expectations with what he has. Would you be saying that about Brewster if we signed him?

Well he was pretty adamant he would be trying his best to do so Time will tell

Does Chapman look the same player as when he was here before? The fear from some was that those injuries rack up on the body.

Looks hipstery

I am sure we have ended up with some good players due to this arrangement too. Be interesting to look back at Hughes and Allardcyes time, but I suppose when you are doing well, nobody cares.

It's 14 degrees in Faro today and it's raining

I think the below was a bit snide to be fair

Did you watch the interview with him when he came back?

Ya, it's an odd one. He trains with the first team I think? It must be the contract

Would you pay their wages too? Can't see Rochdale affording that , barring pay cuts

Lucky them. No issues here, as long as we perform next Tuesday.

Every time I see this thread, I think it's something to do with Halle Berry
