Derby on verge of signing rooney. Theyve just sold their stadium to save themselves from breaching FFP and then they go and spend £10mil on a centre half and are on the verge of signing rooney. Game stinks, certain clubs it seems, can do what they like.

I agree, we need defenders and now. However on saturday we lacked ideas, hopefully a one off.

Seen a few whispers that we are trying to get Henri Lansbury on loan. We still do lack creativity.

If graham doesnt play, dack doesnt perform. He looked like he couldnt be assed yesterday, and if he carries on like that he can feck off with bennett, whos incidently been arguing with fans on twitter. His best quality is his fist pump, bar that, nothing.

He made a massive difference becuase he looks to play the ball forward. However there was 3 seperate occasions were he messed about with the ball, and gave it away whilst falling on the floor, which let charlton in. He needs to cut that out.

Problem is, when he was up front, he still kept going out wide amd putting crosses into positions that he should have been in.

Gallagher put more crosses in the box, over actually getting in the box. Sums up the manager.

First game jitters? What about the 46 games last season?

Thought the tempo was good, and we could have had a couple, but ONCE AGAIN the defence is shambolic.

Cheap tickets wouldnt get me going. Ive not had a ST since them lot took over, i now dont miss it, thats the problem youll have with many people, the owners ruined the club and its still in tatters, no matter what some think. I go down maybe 5 home games a season, atmosphere is awful, no life in the stadium, its gotten worse under waggot, and when i go i confirm to myself that i aint missing anything. Love away games mind, but newt entices me to ewood, bar a free ticket, and maybe a midweek game when theres newt to do midweek People wont like the above but thats how many will view it.

Because hes a first class dick head.

So do i, but it wont be far off.

Not what i would choose its what i EXPECT from an uninspriring manager.

I think it will be; Walton Bennett Lenihan Mulgrew Bell Johson Evans Armstrong Dack Downing Brereton

He is a pretty atrocious defender. The record when he didnt play last season was quite damning of him.

Sin Bins being introduced in the Natioanl League this season, Imagine that "Tosin off into the sin bin"

Think that would be my position as well mate.

Be interesting to see how this side copes with a little bit of pressure this season. Sky sports EFL show today, tipping us as dark horses, as are a few other pundits and journalists, opposition fans also looking at us as a dark horse.

Around 14.5k I think, this is an article from back then when we were nearing the 12k mark https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/news/6117545.season-ticket-sales-to-break-12000-barrier/ We averaged just under 20k I think, so must have been plenty of walk ons. Season after we finished up with around 13k, we were at 12k here, see article https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/news/6071412.rovers-thank-their-loyal-fans/ - Williams quoted in there as saying we could attract crowds of 20k, which we did, he knew how to get the crowds in, Waggot doesnt or refuses to.

Totally agree, very poor footballer.

He was excellent until last season when he picked up a bad injury, when back ipswich were already down, relegation does that to fans, they taint their image of players after a relegation. Ipswich are in league one with no money, they cant ask for much, and will want a big earner off of their books, similar to us replacing robinson with frigging jake kean after relegation.

Hes an excellent keeper at this level. Presume youve never seen him play mate? Hes a very good keeper.

And lets be honest, weve no other defenders anyhow, bar ,nyambe, who would be an improvement, and weve no wingers so thats why strikers are on the wing. That will be the lineup no doubt about it and its to the detriment of the manager that we still have no wingers and 4 midfielders in defence. Hes imrpoved the forward line and centre mid, ill give him that.

That line-up has saved me some money, I now know to give the first home game and first away game of the season a miss, and most of the season thereafter.

Lads Yorkshire v Lancashire is on 404, relax and pop it on.
