Sounds like dack injured

And the wife has gone out in the car it's a win lose for me . Is rovers player free ?

That's my problem ?

Anyone no where I can listen on radio ?

Not seen yet but will be watching. Apparently they are filming Joey Barton's first season at Fleetwood for next year. Similar style programme. So look out for from one genius to the next. (Probably not called that but the rest I'm serious about ?)

That's what FaceTime is for pal ?

I thought I'd never heard of him until people mentioned the arsenal game. I remember him being awesome in that game albeit against a weakened arsenal side. It's the only game I've seen him play but I would be excited if Tony pulled it off. I don't think it will happen but never the less we can hope

I thought I remembered gladwin being around the million mark. Maybe wrong

I hope they don't get this clown. They have suffered enough. I genuinely feel for them if it's true .

It really concerns me playing Palmer and bell together. As good as it is to see bell bomb forward and really attack the opposition right back the level of exposure down that side would be terrifying and catastrophic. Subsequently you could play Bennet that side and that would be the balance Tony would be reffering to I assume. That leaves Palmer playing on the right again leaving nymabe exposed. He doesn't bomb on in the same way bell does and his defending has improved but would anybody be comfortable leaving him so exposed. Which starts dragging the two cdms out of position and the centrebacks creating gaps all over the place to be exploited. We may lack some quality to compete with the top half of this table but we have hard work , discipline and organisation. Cardiff opitimised that last season beating quality hands down. Playing an "artist" like Palmer can literally destroy Tony's whole philosophy. There are artists like monet and there are artists that shit on a canvas. We need proper artists that will graft to get to the top. Palmer worries me immensly.

Or bennett

Raya Nyambe. Mulgrew. Lenihan. Bell Bennett. Rothwell. Palmer. Dack. Armstrong Graham

Which gag was that. Missed that one

My two penniths worth. Alot of positives to take from the game. What can I say about dack that hasn't already been said he's just a joy to watch and seems to get better by the day. After the second goal went in he was screaming at his team and geeing them up to go again. Fantastic attitude and was simply brilliant all night. The suggestion to play him deeper imo is ludicrous. Rothwell however looked comfortable playing that position and could be the answer. He worked hard , put tackles in and the drove forward or played accurate long balls to our front men always looking for the attacking option which was a breath of fresh air. Bell was a menace down the left turning their right back inside out and deserves a run in the team. Raya made a couple of wonderful saves but still has that ability of shattering my confidence in him with moments of madness. Nyambe Charlie and darragh also played very well. Armstrong proved he his a striker through the middle and was superb. Negatives Samuel is awful. His didn't control a thing all night. Nuttall just doesn't get in the right positions and isn't creative enough to make intelligent runs. Sadly Conway is past it at championship level but put a good shift in last night and finally (Tin hat on) . I do not rate Kasey Palmer one bit. Goal aside without the ball he is beyond niave and his positional awareness is appalling. He looks every bit the u23 player ,albeit with potential. His decision making is poor and whilst he's quick he's a yard slower than everyone on the pitch in his head. I would not be starting him against hull. For the odd moment of skill or the odd goal he pops up with he will cost us two. Maybe harsh after three games but tony has alot of work to do with him to get him up to speed. Overall though a wonderful night I thouroughly enjoyed. Their goal was sublime and was applauded by the traveling faithful and dacks second was recipricated by there fans. The highlight was outside the ground before kick off when an elderly couple in their early seventies wandered over to a statue of a Carlisle player. The lady bent down to read the plaque and smashed her head on the players iron boot. Slumped and in pain her husband , with his hand behind his back never flinched, paused, and looked at me to say that's a free kick. I couldn't help but laugh. She was ok and started what turned out to be a wonderful night of football.

Sadly not

I watched Sunday supplement funnily enough on Sunday and it was reported that Chelsea where offering Danny drinkwater out on loan for a fee of 14 million. 14 MILLION. You could have bought him for that with change not long ago. If that's a sign of what the loan market is really like today then this window could be more difficult than the one that's just closed

Can you post that on the philosophical thread and stop derailing this . Thanks

I thought Brian Kidd would be a revelation at rovers. Made some good signings. Who remembers matty jansen. They were the days.

God that reads as awful. In hindsight he was a really terrible manager for us even with the European finish

Agree with most of that but stephane henchoz was absolute class and it seems Liverpool agreed. I was gutted when he left

Do you think he would be a worse option than Caddis or downing ?

Micah Richards is a free agent. Can play right back and centre back. Just saying

Kevin Davies was a bad example but his point still stands. Kalinic might be a better example

I'd take Chris martin. Not exactly the Graham doppleganger people are pleading for but would offer something different. Good energy and tidy finisher

Currently 2-2 Rovers down to ten with charlie doyle being sent off
