Take the point and move on. Not our best performance and the two loanies looked like boys playing a mans game. They make Dolan look like a big boy today. Getting Naymbe and JRC back after the break is a must. Maglore and Carter don’t have the pace or quickness out there. has to be better, but if you play poor and get a point when you could have lost by 3 or 4…I’ll take it

Dislike that player very much

Not sure why Cater was still on the pitch.

Would be well suited to Johnson in there

We’re getting absolutely battered.

Diaz…very poor half for him

We’ll consider ourselves lucky to be level at half. Jones is running circles around Carter. Travis the only defensive player in the middle. Diaz might not be on the pitch. The kids on loan are finding it difficult to get involved as we’ve been chasing the game and our poor touches. Would like to see someone more defensive on in the middle as Travis is being asked too much. Funny how much better Gally is centrally. His touch has been heavy at times but much better there than out wide. Also his size gives us an outlet Dolan doesn’t provide.

FFS! What are we doing on the training ground? Shambles

Not sure I feel too comfortable Rothwell deeper alongside Travis. Seems to be too much space centrally. Think Davenport might give us more balance.

Beauty!!! SG first touch is still heavy, but he’s so much better as a central forward.

If we were to take that approach, we would need to stop buying Center forwards with the touch of Donkey for 6 million quid, then play them on the wing

I remember "defenders are coming" Not so sure in the end result is players are brought it.

But we do have any money to replace him?

Get in! What a gaff from the keeper. Not only did he miss it, he handles it right to BBS feet

WBA clearly a better side, but we’ve gifted them the first goal and could have had penalties. Also BB should put away the Clarkson ball. Granted they could have 4, but all thing considered we’ve faired better than I expected before kick off.

Agreed…reply clear it was on the chest

Pickering loses Phillips there. He drifts right to the center of the goal giving Phillips yards of space on the back post.

Atrocious referring there. Clearly in the chest.

BB has to go down there. He’s goes to ground and that’s 100% a PK

We’ve gotten 54% of the possession though. Ought to make TM tingle

FFS…they could have scored 3 times in the first 30 seconds

Obefemi is no different than the lot of our on player on expiring deals who have not put pen to paper. It appears we only have so much wage structure and it’s proving unsuitable for the older experienced players t this level abd even the young unproved from the premiership. You want to blame anyone for this blame the owners and the Keane, Berg, and Appleton. It’s proving more clear that parachute payment create a real disparity in the championship. It was so important to gain promotion before they ran out, but instead we fell further. Now the odds are stacked against us, as we work within FFP against sides that have nearly 100 million quid to throw about.

I can see why TM plays Dolan up top. He’s a total pest. His pace and quickness cause real problems at this level. Not convinced he’s well suited there against a side like Millwall, but creates problems for sides trying to possess the ball and creat their attack from the back. Just wish there was a way that he could be a best to the center backs and then drop to provide cover so SG or BB could be an outlet when the press is beaten. I know it’s impossible for him to cover that much range.

Hard not to get excited about this start as we’ve looked the better side in 2 of 3 and were well organized in the Millwall game. Ayala in the back is a difference maker for us. with that said we’ve take 7 of 9 against sides that only have taken 3 of 27. The weekend will be a real test as WBA look to be the class of the division.

Great win! Dolan cannot continue as out #9. We have no outlet when we win the ball with him up top. Great pressure but need a target who can hold off two center backs
