The club has been incredibly loyal to Dack. He got a lucrative new contract despite having not at that point proved his fitness (after the first injury). He just happens to be not featuring much in the manager's plans at the moment. There are literally thousands of players in the same boat in the professional game. If that latter reason puts other players off from signing for/staying with Rovers, they won't last very long as professional footballers.

Indeed. I was marvelling at the weight of pass that both Mecky and Tony Parkes consistently played up to the likes of Hutchins, Endean and Field. Especially taking into account the state of the pitches back then too. Superb players.

A couple of extremely dubious penalties there against us...

Heaven 17 - Temptation

The Clash - Train in Vain

To be fair I think that poster was talking about the girlfriend, not Dack himself, unless I misread it? Not unreasonable descriptions either, from what I have seen.

I think you make a fair point Jim but the thing about this England team is that they do bat very deep and more often than not get the job done in this format. T20 is a bit of a lottery at the best of times as it only takes a mad 15 minutes to either win or lose a game. As Riversider28 says above, it’s just good to knock the convicts out.

No doubt there'll be lots of arson about at the back as per usual.

He had quite an unusual debut if I remember correctly. I think Liverpool had an injury crisis and Kenny Dalglish added to that list after about 10 minutes of a European Cup semi final against Bayern Munich. Howard replaced him and proceeded to run the Germans ragged for an hour but got booked for retaliating to a barrage of fouling, so was subbed back off again before he got himself sent off? He pretty much won them the game that night I think. Loved Howard, he really geed the fans up. Just wish he'd scored that penalty against Palace at Ewood...

Watford maybe?

At the risk of sounding like a certain red wine-loving member of this parish, I’m very confident of a resounding victory tonight, providing JDT picks the right team. For me A Wharton and Morton have to start in a midfield three. Whether the third body there is Travis or Sammie I’m not too fussed. On the assumption he won’t drop the skipper I would go: Kaminsky Brittain Hyam Ayala S.Wharton Pickering Travis A. Wharton Morton Diaz-Brereton Gallagher

I think we can add Reading and Sheff Utd to that list. 5 away games where we just didn’t turn up, and yet we are still in a promotion spot. Amazing!
