So much for the Team being No. 1 mantra from JDT. Broughton is a bullshitter who is out of his depth. Why are those running the club so fucking stupid. This prick will get us relegated, maybe not this season but on his watch.

Don't risk any players of value against Smallwood, if that clogger is playing. Away to a L2 opponent who are coming into form and peopled by ex Rovers so an accident waiting to happen. I would like a cup run though for a change.

Yes that's an accurate assessment. He really messed up the substitutions procedure today too.

Is Broughton on record saying that? We are almost toothless and lack creativity throughout our midfield. I am starting to feel sorry for JDT having this fool as his DoF. His only experience is at academy level, the rest he is learning on the job. A recipe for failure in football

Permission to panic Captain Mainwaring

He had messed up by doing single player substitutions twice leaving just one 'moment' available. I hope he now knows the rules. Doesn't explain not using the remaining availability, the team in no. 1 after all. A lame lame excuse. To clarify: clubs will be permitted to use five substitutions, to be made on three occasions during a match, with an additional opportunity at half-time. A total of nine substitutes can be named on the team sheet.”

He had made 2 subs and those just a few minutes apart which was a waste of a 'moment'. That doesn't make the above nonsense any easier to understand though. I have no idea wtf he is on about. Garbage talk.

And cornholed

Wow, that was embarrassingly trash.

It's on. Match pass available via Subscriptions section.

If Khadra is playing from the right he will rip Pickering a new one.

Plausible. It's getting to the time on the window when if BBD goes we will be struggling to find any sort of proven replacement. Underwhelmed would be the polite version of my opinion on the window so far.

Any club expecting to build a team from mainly their own academy to get out of the Championship into the PL is, imo, in for a long long wait. Any owners who think that it is feasible need a mental health check. Has it ever happened? Ever? Pie in the sky dreamers.

A cunning plan hatched so that Rovers are never likely to have to stump up the fee they offer. It is so obvious a scam as to be insulting.

It was very watchable throughout. I gave the Test a miss today, watched old movies on YT and Lancs. I couldn't take watching Crawley again going cheaply with wackaball players to follow.

Great win and performance at Blackpool on a batters wicket.

We were overrun in midfield, the attack was AWOL and we defended badly on all 3 goals plus other chances they missed. For example the defensive header by Pickering to set up Hoilett was beyond pathetic. Phillips was only partly to blame, he didn't have a good game but he's a talent for sure

I agree entirely with this summary. The beauty of a multi layered management structure. However from comments made by JDT it is clear that he, our team coach, looks to Broughton for progress on the recruitment front as Broughton is the one with recruitment oversight. It's a good thing that JDT has the balls to put GB in the cross hairs and make him accountable. I look forward to the spending of up to 10 million by the end of this window which some other posters deem likely. We shall see.

The Blades have been a team of kickers ever since Wilder arrived, Heckingbottom just follows the same template. They will rough us up in a man's game. Let's see if we are up to the task.

Dolan runs around a lot, quite slowly. That's about it.

I wish I'd gone to bed at midnight.

Tactically outdone by Ince, that's how crap it is. And we have a wide range of non performers tonight.

It's a shame that Buckley and Brereton couldn't turn out today. Hedges continuing to pass well ... to the opposition.

Use your hands dipshit

It is more a Venky rather than a Reading hoodoo. We have lost to Reading a total of 8 times of which 7 happened under chicken owners. The caveat is that we have only played them 27 times and have won 10. I don't do pre match predictions anymore.
