If he couldn’t be motivated today against his boyhood club for the first time, then there really is no hope.

There goes that bit of experience at the back. 1 day after the deadline shuts. Could have had a Danny Batth to bring on if the fucking owners actually listened to the manager.

JDT is a smart bloke. Surely they can’t continue for much longer. We quite literally gift the opposition the ball back - every single time.

He’s actually a pretty good impact player as a sub. He’s certainly not a starter though in a team who…ahem…perhaps have aspirations for the play-offs however.

This German / Bosnian lad is going to need to be the second coming of Klose for us to challenge for the play-offs this season.

It’s why we desperately needed a winger brought in yesterday. Nobody but Hedges who can play on the right.

So typical of years gone by. Dominate, concede.

3-0 down now to Mowbray’s boys. They’ve got a good squad, but looking at their 11 today, it’s really not all that. I think only Leicester out of the relegated sides will run away from everyone else.

Nice to see he looks ecstatic to be here in his interview - bit of a rarity these days! Being in Lancashire for a good while has probably whet his appetite for a return. Shame there's no option in there, but if he does well then who knows. Good luck to him.

Really appreciate the update, thanks mate. On set pieces, did I dream this, or did we not appoint a set piece coach in the close season?! Yet to see any fruits, that's for sure.

For those that were there, and I appreciate it’s a little difficult given the standard of the opposition, who was our standout youngster?

Silvester ahead of deadline day:

That’s Suhail feeding back up to his masters that we don’t need anyone before the deadline then.

Loved seeing JDT celebrate at the end of the match too. It really means a lot to him. Once again - back the man FFS. We won’t have it this good in the dugout for a long time otherwise.

I think he should have been brought off around 75 mins in yesterday - visibly tired and we needed fresh legs. Just love watching the kid play though. His natural talent is just off the charts. Enjoy him while you can because he won’t be here next season.

JDT highlighting our ‘change of budget’ in his interview with Sky post match. If only they backed the man over the next few days.

Classy from Trav dedicating that win to Matt Sillitoe. Top man.

Get in. Tad fortunate but we were fantastic defensively and put blood sweat and tears into that. The stats will also make it look a massacre, but Martins must have had half of their shots from 25 yards+! Couple of decent signings this week and we can look forward to a positive season.

Get in!!!! Smash and grab.

Gone from toothless to useless. Can’t string 3 passes together.

They’re bringing on their new CF signing. I’m not jealous, honest. He looks a big bugger too. Big test for our centre halves.

Have we been on the piss at half time?

Lucky to get to half time there. Pointing out the bloody obvious, but we are absolutely crying out for that centre forward. So toothless going forward.

Dolan is infuriating. He needs a spell out of the side. As an aside, didn’t we appoint a set piece coach? What on earth are they doing?!

We’re far too open here. Making that Martins look like Salah at times.
