Unless he is 100 percent I’d rather rest him and go into the break. Hamstrings are so easily tweaked and could be out for a 2-3 months for the sake of 90 minutes it’s not worth the risk when he is our only source of goals

I don’t know anything about QPR except that samuel is quality and will run any of our full backs ragged , including if the injured and COVID hit ones where fit

Definitely my favourite season of attending. My kids will never understand when I try and explain what it used to be like when we’re sat in the Blackburn end staring out at empty seats in silence losing to Luton . I pray that one day they get to experience those kinds of seasons and games with me .

I think the crowds will be healthy enough for a couple of months. It won’t take long for them to drop like a stone once we haven’t had a shot on goal and the novelty factor of going again wears off again as everything else also opens but initially I think they will be fine. It’s up to the powers that be to keep them from going elsewhere and the home games I’ve seen this season won’t keep people interested for long

I have written promotion off Stuart. I am defeated not defeatist, deflated and void of any hope.

Leicester played tonight and had vardy, Evans, soyuncu, Barnes, Perriera, Perez and Mandy not playing and guess what, you couldn’t tell. They played in the same style with the same intensity and every player new there role. They put four past braga without reply. Yes two of those came on later when the game was already won. That’s 7 first team players out of the usual 11. They rotate players and nothing changes . Every year they have had huge losses in selling players , chilwell, maguire, Mahrez, Kante and still they continue to improve. Now look back over the excuses our manager and fans have trotted out and we haven’t sold a single player and Tony has had two seasons extra and I still don’t know what the best formation is , who the best players are to play said formation or even who takes our free kicks. People need to wake up and smell the coffee with Tony because tonight’s Leicester manager showed what proper management is. Tony the nice guy like ole the nice guy can’t get the best out of the players and isn’t tactically astute enough to win enough games to get us were HE said we were aiming for. Ole is under pressure and pochettino is being lined up as I write. Meanwhile Tony shrugs his shoulders as we go again. Where is it we’re going again . That’s right mid table mediocrity

We all know what Evans can do and that’s naff all. Why are people picking him over davenport. At least let the lad have a few games when we are threadbare to prove he’s no better . he is one of our own and does the same role as well as trybull. What does he have to do to get a chance . Why loan trybull when we have the exact same type of player rotting away in the u23s

Luckily for us I think the point deduction to Wednesday and a couple , and I mean a couple, of teams won’t have enough . We will avoid relegation easily , as easy as ten other teams will finish above us

Sadly I’m deadly serious. Come may we will have done enough to stay up and done nowhere near enough to be top six so no games are must win. Over the course of the season we will win enough . Doing just enough is what kind of club we are from surrendering the league to Wigan to swaggott and his cash generating to the fans standing blindly with Tony expecting something to change. Yeah I think we will win Saturday and do just enough keep everyone in a job

The reason no one has started a thread is because this is the exact opposite of a must win game. We all know we arnt going down and we won’t trouble the top six at any point so non of the remaining games are must win. There just exhibitions and normally played like them. So whilst I’ve already brought the tone down by being realistic I shall say a rovers win ?

Just came across this. If you haven’t heard is the ghost pass, enjoy

Graham Fenton ?

Look at united tonight and prior this season. They have the players and a fit squad. The wrong manager , the wrong results, the wrong end of the table. Everyone can see united need pochettino and what would happen if they did get him and it’s the same script here with Tony. The wrong man will get you nowhere. It doesn’t matter who is in the team if they don’t know what there supposed to be doing and they arnt improving on there team and individual errors. I don’t hear many united fans going just wait til that CB Comes in three years from now. They don’t accept it. Why do we

Plenty of time to sit wondering who is playing where and why even with a fully fit squad are we still dropping points at home but I admire and even envy your enthusiasm

9 James thomas 10 Adam/Nicky reed cant remember which

And round and round we go ?

It’s all a load of rubbish. There is no such thing as a tough start. Newly relegated teams need to adapt to the championship while newly promoted teams have something to prove, new players need to integrate, teams (especially in this league) dip in and out of form. later in the season when we should theoretically have an easier run teams fighting for survival pull out all kinds of results, new manger bounces etc. It’s played over 46 games and I don’t care in what order they come.

It’s not what other players could we use it’s what did we do with the players available. We can’t keep trotting out hard luck stories . Maybe last night I’m being harsh as a one off but there is always A reason we can’t compete. ALWAYS. We just need to sort the keeper, we just need to sort the defence, we just need dack back, we just need rothwell driving forward . We just a need a manager who can organise a team of 11 professional footballers from the squad of 30 odd players he’s assembled to be able to play as a unit and maybe just maybe have the odd shot in target

I think when the venkys said they would keep the values of the club, family feel being one of them they might be taking it to literally.

The reality is if we are talking promotion push, which means aiming for top two then we are short all over the pitch. Every single position needs addressing which speaks volumes of the bodged assembly of a squad Tony has done

I’m trying to look at it this way. We have numerous players out and he isn’t any worse than anybody in the starting 11. I have no problem with him coming back and offering us another option. It’s not like it was him or someone else and we have blown the budget. It’s him or nobody and he’s was decent enough last time. I’m happy he’s back

Feels desperate we are desperate welcome back stewart get on a treadmill you start LB tomorrow night

Probably on credit card

Literally anything but him. I’d play Wharton or magloire before him

How does he take it ?
