Not a pitch for trying to run with the ball.

My lap top has a mind of it’s own. Now and again it likes a blast of italics. It’s behaving now.

They play very much like Rovers did last season, pass it around until you lose it style football. If we press hard we should be able to take advantage of that.

I’ve never been one to talk us up before games but we really should win this one. Swansea are in the doldrums at the moment. We could do with Fisher throwing a couple in for us.

Wayne Rooney’s come along about once every 10 to 15 years. Like Gazza.

I could be wrong, no inside information, but the injury to Edun didn’t good going off his demeanour as he left the pitch.

That’s before we go into what we do about the manager.

It’s like that season when we sent all our reserve centre halves out on loan and then needed them immediately.

Strange isn’t it. We’ve gone from having hardly any wingers in the team to having signed loads.

That’s a big gamble with Dele Ali.

Trying to get promotion on the cheap I’m afraid. Anything happens to Brererton tonight and it’s game, set and match.

Disappointed with that. The lack of numbers in the squad will be our undoing. You get the impression that the powers that be don’t believe we can get promotion.

I thought he’d defected. It’ll be too quiet for him over there.

I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if it happened in Summer.

Looks like he’s not Rothwell’s biggest fan. I’m not surprised, the grafters rarely see eye to eye with the ball players in teams.

The point I was trying to make is that Edun could be injured after he limped off on Saturday. That leaves us with either JRC or the new right back to fill it at left back, neither an ideal choice.

Regarding Giles it sounds like we need a player capable of playing left back. Who knows when Pickering will be back and it looks like Edun was kicked out of the Luton game.

Anybody else get the feeling that they really wanted Cantwell all along and Rothwell was just a back up option if that fell through ? Once they got Cantwell in it was “ Thanks for coming Joe “. I’m not buying it was a choice between Moore and Rothwell.

Could be they’ve already factored the sale of BBD into the future finances. Unless we go up of course.

That’s him playing on the right wing then. Maybe Khadra is going to play the Rothwell role.

It’s one thing signing players, it’s another thing incorporating them into a coherent style of play. Especially with several attacking players all coming in at once.

And while we’re chasing a unicorn the more realistic signings will slip through our fingers.

There’ll be more clubs in for Swift further up the food chain. He’s a better player than Rothwell, more consistent for a start.

Swift won’t be coming here. He’s mid table Prem level.

Maybe they won’t be bothered about that. He can always sit on the bench. He won’t be playing for us, that’s the point. Having said that I’m not bent out of shape. He had his strengths but he also had his weaknesses. Yesterday at Luton would have found him out. The first player that I saw do the same thing was Roy Vernon who went to Everton, followed by many, many more.
