The height difference was scary when they walked out - Also watching the first 20 minutes you would not of thought we would have out run them/battle them. Leonard & SS didn’t stop.

Markanday on the whole was frustrating but great at the same time. His size lets him down as he’s easily muscled off the ball…However, one of his strong points is defiantly his control. The ball almost sticks to his feet at times and he clearly has a wicked shot on him - Much rather he than Dolan in front of goal. A solid 7/10

Yeap, if he can finish like that though, with his weaker foot, he will fit in nicely!

Just on A Wharton, he didn’t have the best game but he’s still clearly not match fit…However even on his bad games he still made an impact, unreal player! JDTs got a headache in the midfield - All played really well.

The build up play to it was unreal, started with A whartons back heel.

First half was poor I thought but my god that second half was very good to watch. That back line was as good as I’ve seen play for a long time. All deserved man of the match and shout out to Brittain for his cameo. Markanday did well but defiantly struggled in some parts but chuffed for scoring. Dolan came to light second half and linked well with SS. My biggest shout is to Leonard. That first big chance he had second half would have been something if he scored. His hold up, and movement is up there with some of the best - can’t wait to see him develop! My weekend starts tonight! Happy Saturday folks, buzzing!

Got my tickets for this! Looking forward to it - A signing before match day would be a nice moral boost for fans and could headwork a few fans to come down.

That formation is unreal!!

Shocking isn’t is! Slow, turgid and no real threat up top…It could be a long afternoon, but I have a feeling we will get a result of some kind. A Wharton, Ennis & Siggy in there and it looks a hell of a lot better - Hopefully we have 1/2 new faces in by the end of the window which brings abit more pace.

Looking forward to getting back at ewood. Curious to see the attendance and if, what’s been going on, will put people off… Good thing for us is that Sarmiento for West Brom may not feature, if that’s the case they are defiantly beatable - JDT will line up as the below Kaminski JRC, Carter, Hyam, Pickering Travis, Tronstad Szmodics Hedges, Leonard, Dolan We are desperate for A Wharton and he comes in for Travis when fit. I would start Markanday but I don’t think JDT will trust him just yet so hedges it is unfortunately. That front 3 is such a big worry, neither of them are good enough to start and I’m worried at the lack of opportunities we’ll create. 14k on & 1-1 with Leonard scoring.

This game is being won on the flanks, pace and flare, something we don’t have and didn’t have last season…Just as bad if we don’t bring in a winger in before window end.

When you mean cut does that mean no loans or frees? Even if we sell?

Why we are desperate for a RW. Markanday is better IMO.

I presume A Wharton will be 1st choice when fit. Unpopular opinion, I don’t rate Travis and I’ve never really have. He was the weak link alot last season…Not sure why he’s still club captain.

Can you private message me a link if poss?

Sounds like we are trying to walk it in the net - have a shot FGS!

O dear…It’s gone from being awful business selling kaminski to suicidal. Let’s pray it doesn’t happen.

JDT will be stood there with a smirk on his face.

You’d think he’s be thrown in on this game though, seeing it as the easier of the two - Unless the stories of Gally being injured are true and he’s starting tomorrow.

No Ennis?

After the pre seasons I’d play the below Kaminski JRC, Carter, Hyam, Brittain Tronstad Wharton Szmodics Markanday, Gally, Hedges Travis and Tronstad is difficult between the 2 & also Gally uptop I think will get goals, eventually…Besides we don’t know what Ennis is like so can’t put him in just yet.

FT - good result for the youngies.

Don’t tell rigger

Sounds like Markanday playing well! Get him in the starting 11 against West Brom.

Just scored!
