4-2-3-1 hopefully. Not Dack false 9 bollocks. He'll have over-thought it for the last two weeks.

He's always going on about top 6 - every summer without fail.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

He looks a good player from the bits I've seen

I doubt they'll leave big open spaces for AA to run into so not sure how we'll break then down. 0-1 sounds about right, but you just never know!

“I don’t know about that to be honest. We’ve got two left backs, I’m not sure where that came from. We’ve got Barry Douglas, we’ve got Amari’i Bell, it would seem mad to me to sign a left back when you haven’t got any centre halves.” 'I don't know about that' would indicate he's denying all knowledge. I agree though this may be a case of a deal falling through, Crewe telling everyone and Mowbray going into damage-limitation mode.

Very strange. He's denying all knowledge, not something I eve remember him doing before. It's eithet that he doesn't want Douglas to know he was going to get fired off back to Leeds if the Pickering deal had gone through, or someone else is buying young players with potential for the 'project'.

Stoke haven't conceded a goal away from home since early November. They are 60 secs away from beating their previous club record of 540 mins. 9 clean sheets in 11 away games.

Rovers sign released Preston midfielder after trial spell | Lancashire Telegraph Signed his mate now too .... who is a Rovers fan.

Yep, very average division. Always a couple of stand out teams but the rest is just down to competency. Look at Boro under Warnock, no real changes to a squad that he saved from relegation last season.

'Undoubtedly' - Mowbray says squad stronger for second half | Lancashire Telegraph “Three points worse off, we could have been 10 points further on, easy, 12 points, games we could and should have won this season,” he said. 🤣

Form is based on results, you're talking about levels of performance. You've turned into Tony😉

'Undoubtedly' - Mowbray says squad stronger for second half | Lancashire Telegraph "It feels like we can score goals, dominate games, and even when we don’t score goals we create lots of chances. Some days they go in, some days they don’t. But the fact we’re creating chances I think it’s important to do that, because if you’re scrambling 1-0s in games when you only have two or three chances every game, you’re not going to do that every week, in my opinion, unless you’re basing it around a defensive structure. But we’re not doing that, we’re basing it off an attacking structure.” WTF!

We've won 4 out of the last 6 at home.

Yes, according to Sharpe. Rovers sign Everton youngster and eye up another loan deal | Lancashire Telegraph

You're right, I was being ludicrous. 14th- 18th😉

True. 8th - 18th.

What's that got to do with the sublime pass. Admit it, he's a lot better than you think he is.

Things change. Bigger crowds now compared to the 80's. That won't change any time soon. OT and Anfield aren't suddenly going to empty. Football is about the live experience. Amazon or whoever isn't going to change that. People have been stuck inside for 12 months, probably longer when we eventually get to go back to live matches, people will be gagging for it by then!! As long as I'm vaccinated and not a risk to anyone I can't bloody wait!

In their last 6 games Stoke have only beaten ... (drum roll please) ... Rovers. W1 D4 L1. GF 2 GA 2 Should be a belter🙄 1-1 Tony to fall asleep on 73 mins and Venus to put a blanket on him.

From about 1 min 50secs in. Plenty of 'pictures' of the game around him there. And the weight on that pass! I think I could hear Elliott Harvey applauding😉

Eh?

Either. Think Cafu/Socrates hybrid.

Good for Bucko. Laughing in the face of the BRFCS haters who won't give him a chance. Bucko - England Captain 2026 World Cup.

So you are only guessing, but you're stating things as fact. It is a bit misleading.
