Until the mentality at the Club changes that’ll always be the case. Changing the mentality at the club demands a change of ownership to a more hands on, visible, proactive ownership. So round and round we go.

When you’ve only two in central midfield “ spraying long balls upfield “ becomes your only option.

I’m going to have him kidnapped that morning !

It sounds like he was there by half time though.

He played today for the U-21’s, just as easy to get injured in that game.

Yes but Jim was telling us the other day that he’s a Jonah were Luton are concerned.

I’m not so sure that he likes it, more that’s how he’s told to play. When you only have two in central midfield it’s hard to move the ball forward centrally. Your opponents only need three in there, two to mark up and one to pick up the pieces.

You shouldn’t have gone Jim.

Their fans don’t think so.

One up the road did just that.

The “ passing it along the back line “ way of playing will get you nowhere in this league, except possibly relegated.

Does Buckley owe you a fiver by any chance ? Ask nicely and I’m sure he’ll give it you back. Nobody came out of todays game with much credit but you have to slate Buckley - every week.

He keeps getting games lost in team selection for me. We took a knife to a gunfight today.

That’s the problem isn’t it. Give players at this level an excuse not to perform and they’ll take it every time. That’s why they’re at this level.

Playing three up front away at Luton is pretty naive. You need to have more bodies in midfield to dominate the play.

Correct, if you’re playing 5 at the back and 3 up front the two wing backs have got be really on song. Otherwise the two in centre midfield are going to get the runaround. Pretty obvious really.

One you missed - our flying winger of the sixties - Mike Harrison.

Yeah he was truly bad.

That’s a really good article. Talking about the other two that played with MacNamee I remember Kurila, his real nickname was “ Killer “. Cushley was a handful and he was the quietest of the lot ! Signing MacNamee saved us from the old Div 4. There was an immediate change in attitude in the team and we stopped feeling sorry for ourselves and started competing again. Just proves you can be a legend after only one season.

We got one the other night with the off side decision. I’ve seen plenty of more obvious off sides given as a goal. That famous incident against West Ham being just one !

Did you see the Hogan hat trick for Big Club ? Their second goal was terrific, including the pass of the season so far to set him up.

Could have been the new Johnny Price. He did ok after leaving Ewood, wasn’t he on the verge of a big move when he broke his leg ?

They put two of our players out for weeks last time we were down there. Two really bad fouls that they got away with. Let’s hope we get a ref who’s eyes aren’t painted on.

Their keeper didn’t exactly cover himself in glory for the first goal. If that had have been Kaminski letting that one in I wouldn’t have been too happy.

Especially with Dyche out of work, WBA would be the perfect fit.
