I'm calling now, With a week to go until the season starts, we will still be "working on a striker". And Ethan Brierley does not count. -

Diaz played the last 4 months like his legs were stuck in a hessian sack. -

So what is most likely happening is... Sunderland and West Brom and Rovers get beat. -

Based on JDTs body language at full time he is leaving. -

After a string of must win games, in which we failed to bother a succession of keepers, why would today be any different ? -

OK, last summer, Mowbray and half the team had gone followed by not one of the fans favourites being hired. The drums of Venky doom were being played as we all expected a horrible season fighting relegation under someone cheap, hired in desperation. Suddenly we hired GB and JDT. Eyebrows and hopes were raised. What is this ? We had long clamoured to start our promising youth under Mowbray, yet he stubbornly used men anywhere on the park. Men who didn't care enough about Rovers to sign new contracts. On the pitch we got our wish to see our youth stutter, grow and flourish in front of our eyes. Adam Wharton's Blue and White was ringing out last night with pride. Relegation ? No.... A play off push keeping the embers of hope burning with only 2 to go. Two cup runs filled with pride we had long forgotten about. On the pitch, JDT has done his job this season, his first season. I applaud. Well done Jon and Thank You. Off the pitch, it's now over to you Gregg ! Get us what we need so we can have our own promotion party this time next season. Even sweeter in a Burnley relegation season. -

No point even considering what the other sides will do. We are not going to suddenly develop a goalscorer and start winning games. Moreover we are not going to do it for the next 2 games, bever mind 5 games. Just let it go. Enjoy the summer. -

It felt like we played well. We did. However we were never anywhere near scoring a goal. Week after week its been the same. You only win games by scoring goals and for that reason, we have no chance of winning these last 2 games. I hope our new striker isn't Ethan Brierley but I fear it will be. -

Neither side remotely looked like scoring. We pushed but there was not really a chance to speak off. Absolutely desperate for a striker. Won by a top drawer goal. Season over now. -

Ironic that JDT spent all week repeating that they wanted to prove everyone wrong.... only to make the decisions which proved everyone right. Our -GD will probably be worth -1 point in the end. Our general inability to score goals plus several batterings earlier in the season, may decide our fate. -

Burnley Bastards roll into town.... MUST WIN - Because we need the points. MUST WIN - Because we dont want them winning the title here. MUST WIN - Because it's them. Not looking forward to this at all. -

Time to stick a quid bet on West Brom winning the play offs. No idea how they got back up there but thats how it goes. -

Szmodics was really good. He works really hard off the ball at both ends. After a dodgy start here I really like him now. Clearly very fit. Gally was actually our second best player tonight. Shame he got injured. Adam Wharton. Pure class. MoM. JRC again good. Surely player of the season. -

2 more points pissed away with subs. Dolan never held the ball up once which was his only job. Morton never touched the ball once. Sorba wasn't able to play effectively full back. Diaz was the worst player on the field all night. By the end we were playing with 7 men.
