There was no agenda against him. We knew we were short in midfield if we got any injuries, lost Travis to injury and then lost Baker who had been our first choice cover. We therefore needed a player who throughout January would be a first choice midfielder, and then would flit between first choice and cover for the remainder of the season. We brought in someone who couldn't get into the side at the bottom of the league. It was disappointing that again there was no effort made by the club to support the position the team had got themselves into. Forshaw then started some games and looked fairly terrible. His appearances lately haven't been so bad, but I still dont want him as 3rd choice midfielder who may well have to step in for long periods if one of Trav or Tron is injured. However I suspect he is quite cheap and willing to accept a short term deal, so fits with our strategy of unable to make long-term financial commitments.

Tronstadt, Batth and Brittain are the standout 3. They would all have been deserved winners. Travis has been good. Hyam has been good except for the dodgy spell when Batth was missing. Ohashi has done OK but is nowhere near the top 3. Beck was outstanding for the first few months.

What do they expect? It’s not 1889 any more.

https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2025/april/26/tronstad-crowned-player-of-the-year-/ Sondre crowned player of the season. Fair play to him. Although for me it was Danny Baath. Amazed he wasn’t in the first 3 even.

Referee levels it up with a red card for Luton.

There’s no real difference directly for us if Luton win or draw. If we get to 68 then Coventry would need a win to be above us next week, regardless of them drawing or losing here. Indirectly though Luton winning is better as the more pressure on Preston to get a result at Bristol City next week the better.

Not wishing to be greedy, but could do with clawing back a bit of the Bristol City goal difference today. Coventry down to 10 men!

No surprise we’ve picked back up again since he came back from injury. Possibly my player of the season. Really hope we keep him for next season.

To be fair he’s only 22. Van Hecke made similar mistakes for us at a similar age. I’m sure he’s improved since.

Or we beat Sheff United and Burnley, already up, throw their game against Millwall to deny us.

Bristol City have Leeds Away then Preston at home.

Coventry play Boro on last day.

Boro hit underside of bar from 8 yards in a practically open net.

Wednesday in front against Boro 😲

They are missing quite a few, and have three lads 20 and under playing who don’t play that much.
