Only got a chance to watch the highlights earlier. Their first goal was odd to say the least, very soft. For a big lad Walton needs to be knocking lads out of his way. Their 2nd goal was kamikaze. I dont think Walton needed to come there. I think we need our own keeper. I'm not as anti Walton as many,but really what incentive is there for him not to just down tools here. At the end of the day he is leaving one way or another. I think Brighton will still rate him regardless of how he gets on here. He will probably be on loan somewhere else next year. Great finish by Downing for his goal. I would put him in the Dack role with Holtby centre mid. Downing actually has a brain. I noticed for their 3rd goal someone waltzed past him and he didnt have the gas to chase. He would get away with that more in Dacks role. Are there any other 36 year olds playing centre mid at this level?

We were 4 or was it 3 points off 3rd before the latest shitty run, 2 points from 12 and we are now 7 points off 3rd. Crazy stuff.

On his day Aiden Mcgeady was/is very good at that

Ain't hindsight great. I'm sure fans of every club they dont play for think the same

Have any of you got the rovers app on an android phone? I downloaded it to watch ifollow and it crashed 15 times during the Huddersfield game. Now I have just recieved a notification for the 1st time recommending I disable the app because its playing havoc with my battery. It just strikes me as something you would expect to work well, but it's clearly badly broken. Not sure what section I should have put this in and dont think it needs it's own thread

I dont think Conway would be the answer,but a player doesnt necessarily need to beat his man to cross it in! Beckham had a decent enough ball and he wasnt skinning full-back. We just need someone to start getting quality ball into the box. Was it 67% possession the last game with little to no penetration and that's not the first time that has happened this season.

Maybe they will offer cash plus that Henigan lad. Depends on how much the cash is then because we would certainly need another centre half too.

It's a load of bollox. Case in point have a look at Derbys number 32 tonight.

Tony doesn't know how to break the news to them

Because he can cross the ball. Thats how badly we need someone we can do that. I agree that Conway could barely move at the end.

He was probably on nothing or absolute peanuts. Be realistic like

Ya and didnt he say money was left over after the last window?

Good call. Most of his goals first time were from crosses. Conway probably. We miss his deliveries.

Forest have released the Swede Milosovic. Would be a good signing for us

Ah come on now,for all Mowbrays faults and reasons to be criticized, it's a peculiar angle to have a conspiracy theory as to why Buckely started a few. Before he was starting a lot on here were,incorrectly , slaying mowbray for not giving youth a chance. He gives him a chance,which hasn't worked out, and now you are trying to make out someone is making him play Buckley. Nonsense. I wouldnt say any of the Indians know who Buckley is.

Actually just thinking there, could Downing play Dacks role?

Ya and I watched the highlights of that game again the other day,like many games in this league,it was very fine margins. They missed 2 very good chances in the 1st half. They score then,we ain't winning. Ya I'm actually scared about how far down this rabbit hole mowbray is going to go. Like the way he's talking about needed a break to digest that Dack is gone and to figure out how to play without him. The players must hear this and be wondering why is he saying it. As the leader and manager he should be trying to minimize Dacks loss. Psychologically at first. At the moment he is actually making a bad situation worse.

I dont think Holtby had even been prolific. Rothwell is gone to shit and being honest I dont see Brereton scoring 5 more goals whilst he is here. Its worrying times alright and I dont think it's going to be an enjoyable few months til the end of the season. Obviously losing Dack is a blow,but I think its literally after causing Mowbrays brain to explode. We could be tail spinning for weeks while he trys to figure this out. The annoying part is it shouldn't have to be so complicated

Scary

With tv money and parachute payments I dont see how any club would not want to get promoted. On a semi related though,IF my some miracle we did go up,I bet we wouldn't sign many,if any players. Mowbray would stick with what we have out of loyalty and we would get trounced.

Agreed. Likewise.

There is 0 chance he will get sacked. Absolutely none. He can just point to us being 4 points off the play offs. We will probably lose most games now in jan. Then go one run in feb,maybe into march. Then another bad run will hit and we will end up at the bottom of the pile of those in the mix for the play offs.

Certainly not

I'm not,I'm just interested if he is it going to games or generally being with the squad. It's not that big an ask.
