This makes a mockery of those that think Brereton should be put in the U23s for a while. It seemingly doesn't count.

I wonder what he's been doing in all that spare time.

I'll have to call Charles Vane.

What's happened to King George's Hall all of a sudden? I see the gig listing for the next few months includes The Vaccines, Kaiser Chiefs, Suede and The Specials. Not exactly Ariana Grande, but considering that the last time I checked the gig listings (admittedly some time ago) the main event was a Bon Jovi tribute band the venue seems to have gone up a notch - it's practically like the former glory days.

The home banker Man Utd v Reading was the BT Sports live game. Yawns! Apart from the millions of glory hunting foreigners, who was interested in that boorish tie?

But what if you're not a gambler?

B & M

Hopefully not.

- Weaknesses Aerial Duels Finishing Crossing Holding on to the ball Defensive contribution ? So when we're desperately trying to hold onto a result he's a great one to bring on - as Tony often does. Heck. Is there anything he CAN do?

YES! It's great to see we've done all the business early so we don't end up having to make some overly desperate last day deals (as in August). Onwards to mid-table mediocrity we go (ps - half season tickets still available).

That's the problem - take those away and there aren't many goals coming from elsewhere - just Mulgrew's dead ball plays.

Matthew Platt and Sam Hart in defence along with spinning Travis as a new midfield signing and it looks like a good January window already. ? We just need a striker now.

Only thing with Rothwell is that he doesn't score many.

As some Forest fans pointed out at the time of signing. He had plenty of chances there and his scoring record was poor for a striker. 5 in 35 last season.

Hang on. I'll just check.

Old Benny Boy is moving into Chrissy Brown territory now. What's is it now? 17 appearances and no goals . . .

Even in the 6th minute of added time there was a ball pumped up to Patsy - who in turn rose like a blind Bambi in the middle of nowhere - the ball ended up in our box several seconds later. If Graham was still on he would have had it under control and the game would have been over. Sometimes it's the small things.

What VPN are you using? Maybe they've been found out - like a lot of the ones that now no longer work on BBC iPlayer etc.

Rovers stats says Brereton was booked for dangerous play. Ridiculous. The keeper had both hands on the ball and pushed towards Brereton's face.

I don't rate that Travis much. When is Smallwood back? ??

Well Tony tried his best to cock it up at the end there, but we've finally held onto a lead. Phew!

Yet another made up number from The Time Lord's.

I have to say this ref has probably been the best I've ever seen. No complaints so far.

Here we go. The nail in the coffin sub.

There's no way we're going down. There are too many really poor teams down there. Reading also getting smashed again. Time to unleash Rothwell..lol.
