Or Leonard. I know he’s not the answer but it was mid-Jan last time he was sighted. He’s better than Semir.

Edited - moved it to another thread.

Don’t be daft. Before the players downed tools on JDT he got 10 wins from 22 games with this squad. Admittedly he had Wharton but also had a lot of injuries and was forced to play Wahlstedt. Eustace has come in to a run of very winnable games and has failed to win any. He had plenty of time to turn this around and still potentially does. On paper our defence is not the worst in the league, and we have the leagues top goal scorer. However Eustace approach has led to us scoring just 6 goals in 9 league games, against some of the lowest sides in the division. He’s had plenty of time to turn this around and if we go down it’s because he has been a very poor manager.

JRC is the only one. No surprise he popped up and put the ball in the back of the net Friday. It’s just keeping him fit.

Might have been. I only flicked through and get the two mixed up.

If you watch the sky coverage it shows that replay during the main the game from 38.40 onwards. I can't post the video on here (on which Don Goodman actually changes his mind about whether he's offside when he sees it), but can only post the stills in sequence. If you still think this clearly in the keepers line of vision then fine, but I disagree. edit - I'm just going to crop and repost these to make them bigger.

In the keepers eyeline? This is as JRC hits it and Szmodics has never crossed the keepers view of the ball at all, even in the build up. I've seen far worse examples of goals allowed after these kind of incidents even after being reviewed by VAR. I'm not sure. 13:55 onwards on this video.

One positive from yesterday. At least JRC was back and looked a goal threat from midfield. Hopefully we can keep him fit cos I think he has more bottle and bite about him than a lot of these.

Hopefully that's the last time we see Chrisene anywhere other than LB. He as shocking and it wasn't even like he was offering much protection to Pickering who was constantly getting ran at.

Letting Travis go and then letting Wharton go is they key moment this season for me. That was just stupidity. However with all the JDT bashing going on, let's not forget JDT hardly picked Wharton till towards the end of last season. We spent most of the time in the top spots picking from a midfield of Travis, Buckley and Morton. As everyone keeps telling me Tronstadt is levels above Travis, the loss of Wharton shouldn't be an excuse for no wins in 10 (against relatively easy opposition) by Eustace. @aletheia has nailed it above. JDT had to go as he'd "lost" the dressing room, but he achieved far more with this group of players than Eustace currently is. People unfairly blamed Mowbray for relegation, but if we go down this season it's heavily on Eustace.

Problem is Birmingham have got Rotherham and they also play Hudds. Quite a few teams play each other. I still think it's more like 5 or 6 points we need.

Games against other relegation teams in red. Games against teams in with a chance of promotion or play offs in blue.

That’s like saying do you think any DOF could succeed at Ewood if he had to play Wahlsted, Telalavic, Ennis and Mola. He wouldn’t. He would just clear the decks.

Also, how many times does the ball drop to us around the box but we decide to take a touch before we shoot. Inevitably we get closed down.

If that’s what you think having looked at the replay that is from behind JRC when he shoots then fine. But I disagree. He never crosses the keepers line of sight at any point and is behind the defender.

I never said he hadn’t been one of the better players. I said he’s been ok when most of our players this season have been poor. Im just not sure he’s any better Travis. Numerous times today they played a ball to a man and he was stood 4 yards off him when he should have been tighter. His general positioning is not great. However he is far tidier on the ball than Travis.

Why on the JRC goal? Szmodics isnt in the keepers line of vision and he doesn’t impede the keepers movement in any way.

If you think Tronstadt is the best CDM in the Championship “without a shadow of a doubt” like @BankEnd Rover then you are on something stronger than glue. Hes been one of our better players, but he’s not hugely better than Travis. This isn’t his fault and he’s in our starting XI currently quite easily but he’s just, decent.

lol. Fuck off 😀😀😀😀😀

Hope you enjoyed today’s game Scotty. At least big bad JDT won’t be criticising you in the dressing room.

He’s just ok. People talk like Tronstadt has come in and been a revelation but he just does a job in there, same as Travis did. This isn’t his fault, but listening to some people talk you’d think he was the Championship Roy Keane.

We were in free fall under JDT because in my opinion the players had downed tools and revolted as indicated by the Brittain and Scott Wharton interviews, Therefore I understand the need to change. However since he’s gone we’re still shit despite them supposedly liking Eustace. If we could switch managers back for the rest of this season at the moment in time I’d do it in a heartbeat.

Both of these keepers are having blinders in the Bristol City / Leicester game. But how many good chances are Leicester going to squander.

Millwall in front against West Brom. Expecting a few results to go against us before 5.30pm.

Yeah Andy Bayes shoots Gregg down on that one.
