Tyrone Shoelaces

And then next season ———- silence.

I’m not sure. It might have been for something he said afterwards. They’d been trying to wind him up all game. Sly shoves off the ball that went unseen by the officials etc. He should know better really. Buckley’s the same.

From what we’ve seen so far, neither of the two new strikers have more than 60 minutes in them. In that case we need subs that can take over.

That’s the point. There aren’t any players like that now. They’re just wannabe hard lads. Look at that with Scher and Brererton yesterday - pathetic. I’d be totally embarrassed. You get charged over like that, you pick yourself up and take the free kick and you wait for your chance to really hurt the bastard. It’ll come, just be patient.

We had a similar chance at the end of the first half but their centre half dived in to block Tronstad’s attempt. We should have done better collectively as a back 5.

Just a typical Travis performance. Good bits, bad bits and a pointless yellow card. Real hard players don’t get involved with stupid shit like that. They make the cards count.

The game passed him by yesterday. Especially in the second half when they were all over us. I thought the subs should have been done earlier.

It never made me tired. It’s a myth.

One thing about the Japanese, Korean, Chinese players I’ve seen - they’ll run all day and they’re 100% ers.

I can’t think who he was playing for now but I remember him coming to Ewood and giving us a bit of a chasing. That was before he went to Bournemouth.

It was a good little move. The ball out to Brittain said - “ here, cross this “, and the ball in said - “ here, somebody head this in “.

He’s a risk anyway. I’m tired of reading about cover and competition. We need some starters in. The guys we’ve got now can be the cover and competition.

As an aside, could anybody see Gally scoring with that header ? He’d be back on his heels around the penalty spot.

Keep your money in your pocket.

Nobody’s that daft. He’ll have to go on a free.

Wharton should be playing today.

Well at least he gave Stoke a good 20 minutes.

I see Phil Jones has officially called it a day. He wants to be a manager now.

It makes sense, him being the captain and a long serving player. He’ll be on a decent wedge by now.

Any other club that had taken in the amount of transfer money we have recently would be looking to make a couple of decent signings. The sort that are the first names on the team sheet. However we aren’t “ any other club “ . We can’t afford to sell Travis without bringing in a replacement, ideally somebody who can boss the midfield without getting carded every game.

Just how I saw it. I like both JRC and Dolan but they’d have to be on the bench next time out. JRC doesn’t look anything like fit, the game passed him by yesterday. I despair with Dolan. He over complicates everything he does, he just needs to keep it simple. That was Sammi’s strength, he kept things simple.

Here’s how I score it - 4 Shocking 5 Poor 6 Good 7 Very Good 8 Excellent 9 Brilliant 10 The second coming of Bryan Douglas

I don’t know what they put in the half time tea ? It must be a soporific.

I gave Gueye 7. First half was decent/good. Second half was pretty poor. We only started playing after we’d gone 2-1 down.

Yeah we went to pieces in that second half. We consistently took the wrong option. Instead of keeping the ball more and trying to weather the storm we kept trying “ Hollywood balls “ . I was pulling my hair out at some of our passing.
