Never went on the old Riverside then?

Good win, very good win. Having been slightly critical of him I must say Smodics has grown on me. Another terrific finish. Vale was really.good when he came on. Young Adam Wharton,, well what can I say looks a real real talent. For all their huffin and puffin Hull never really threatened to score, onwatds and upwards.

Nit seen anything from young Ash in the man's game to suggest he is anything special. Young Wharton eclipsed him for young uns making an impression. Let's not forget our oast us littered with "the next big thing" type players who really went nowhere but down. Nuttall as mentioned, Broomes was one too no? Buckley fixing to be another unless he gets over his mourning for Mowbray PDQ

Sadly Dack is done here. Mowbray revealing his chat with Dacky probably put the final nail in the coffin as far as JDT is concerned. In all honesty I feel JDT has not given him a fair shake, not at all. Is it a ploy by JDT to assert authority, bit like taking out the biggest in a group of bullies. I really feel for Brad as if one ACL in his prime was not bad enough but two, it's a damn shame for both club and player. I would love for it to work out but I think this marriage is irretrievably broken.

Steady on now it is early days. We don't yet know if JDT has a death spiral in him. Signs are promising. Confidence is what this group needs only wins will bring that. Two W's in a row is great, now let's get 3.

Comma maybe but not full stop. Just cos that is your opinion it does not make it so. By letter of the law that oush on Wharton warranted a pen. so equal equal.

Clear foul in my eyes too. Not the only one not given either.

Just you wait till February and the death spiral coming your way. I did think Sunderland looked a good side and had I not known I would have said no way does Mowbray manage a team that plays that way.

I think it was a penalty but offside no. Player in the wall olays Whatton on and maybe the ref thought well if you had not given Scitt a two handed shove he would not have been there. Getting irritated at the amount.of holding players are getting away with and still hate all the play acting and falling down with the slightest touch. Penalty decision makes up for all those not gone our way either for or against. Still took me about 6 views to make up my mind. Sky really don't like us do they.

The boy has some silky skills for sure.

Yeah, your opinion on the Dingles and being at the bottom end surprised me. You are not usually so far off.

How is Rothwell doing anyway?

Would have to say Rovers being Rovers we lose this one Tony being ex manager and all. Would love for Tomasson to give his side a beating. Imagine Mowbray being up for this one.

Me too everytime.

We won but OMG had we been 4 up at half time as we should have been that 2nd half would not have caused me more years off me life. Take the 3 points but still much work to be done.

Hirst, don't think he has it, that's one thing but I think he is a bit lazy and looks scared to get stuck in to me and that is not OK. I noticed him closing down up front on a couple of occasions, full steam ahead to the opponent yet when he got within a few yards he stopped or slowed down avoiding having to get stuck in. I would have yanked him unceremoniously after the 2nd one.

And the ref not seeing two fouls unless he took it that the pull cancelled out the push.

Did you know ESPN dies an On Demand where you can see the game after the fact. Just found this out will save me a bundle in missed wages.

We saw too much of that again, sooner or later one team is going to have a field day and totally embarrass us. I am just not seeing the style of play that JDT said he wanted to play. Why on earth does Hirst get to take the Penalty.

Underwhelmed to say the least. Markanday has caught my eye more than this fella and he seems to be in Siberia somewhere. Please prove me wrong cos we splashed decent cash and this calls into question the recruitment skills of our DoF and manager.

I been asking that for a while.

Yes we have, no one been there to stop Kaminskis kicks going into touch.

I hope Diaz is back to his best, looked kike he might have had one eye on Chile last game. These breaks stink, this whole World Cup mid season thing stinks too. Not sure this is going to be a proper season, players will be distracted by the upcoming event. Even after I thinkn t will take some time to get into the daily grind again. What a cluster f by FIFA.

After watching USA the other night maybe we will. Yeah opinions.

I am really glad proper footy is back this weekend. God I hate those International breaks.
