Only one home team won in the Championship today !

You're knocking Big Sam's perceived style yet you appear to have wanted us to go full " ale house " this afternoon. Somewhat of a contradiction there I think.

I didn't like saying that when the euphoria about the recent signing was in full swing yesterday. You can get a bit tired of getting called negative. But that's the truth of it. Not enough of a goal threat at the business end. Lets hope the kid from Liverpool knows where the goals are.

" A squad of players " is exactly what we've got. We should be building a team.

One of the great Rugby League Finals today. Just a shame it was behind closed doors. Anybody that needs cheering up after todays Rovers no show I can recommend it. Most of the guys out there expended more energy in 5 minutes that our lot did in a full 90 according to my son.

Maternity Leave.

I said when they appointed him they'd finish the season above Rovers.

If we'd have been in their position and a new guy came in and got us an away win straight away we'd have been over the moon. I watched the Rugby League Final, great game.

That looked a pretty dire game.

That's not what Mowbray does with new signings.

Obviously nobody made him a better offer than we did. Just looks like Mowbray looking after another pal to me. At the same time as the club have been pleading poverty to the fans and can't afford to keep the stadium clean. Maybe he'll be going around with the litter picker and a green sack ?

If he's that useful why has nobody else come in for him ?

That's a pointless signing for me if it does happen. It's great to have all these new players coming in but I'm a bit concerned about keeping them all happy and having a settled team and a coherent, consistent way of playing in the immediate future. We all know Tony like to meddle. We'll soon see.

Two that even draughtsmen used to get wrong all the time - Guage ( Gauge ) and Gaurd ( Guard ).

There's no way we would have got relegated under Big Sam. The first thing I did when I heard he'd been fired was to look at the league table to see how many points we needed to get to safety. I knew we were in trouble from that point.

That's my concern as well. We need Gallagher or Brererton to discover where the goals are.

That Richard Brown attempted tackle was so late it was nearly from the match before !

Me too, jn fact I like Southgate as a bloke, he appears to be a very decent guy. He was also a decent player back in the day. However I just don't think he's a Trophy winning manager.

Chaddy, we lost that game, remember ?

You're talking like that semi final was a success story. It wasn't. We were well beaten by a team that was well beaten by the eventual winners. We made really hard work of getting to the semis in the bargain. Southgate's not the answer, I'm sure of that. I'm not even sure there is an answer. We're breeding under achievers in English football at the moment I'm afraid.

Well whoever it's going to be next I'd start looking for him now. Southgate, nice guy that he is, isn't ever going to be a winner. To be honest I don't think we have the players in enough of the crucial positions to win things at the top level. Having said that we shouldn't be losing at home to the likes of Denmark so badly.

Or way of playing, system etc. There's a lot of it about in football as we know at Rovers.

Don't forget Paul Downing.

That's what I heard as well .
