Javier DePedro had a dozen caps for Spain. Just saying.

There’s a piece on Wilder and Middlesborough in today’s “ Sunday Observer “. Interesting.

Good teams score near the death. They have the right mentality.

You missed the best Rovers performance in my lifetime.

I wouldn’t have though Rothwell was what they need. The Sun is talking up a loan move for Aaron Ramsey. Stephens wouldn’t have a chance with the fans if he came in exchange for Rothwell.

Nobody said Rothwell is going to Burnley.

It would be a foolish move to basically exchange Rothwell for Stephens.

That’s not fair to the player. Have you ever made a comeback from a serious injury ?

That’s a complete non starter. Dack hasn’t even played 1 minute of competitive football at any level and you want to play him in a massive game ?

That’s why it was imperative to get a result at Hull.

It’s got the feeling of the Harry Chapman signing. Pacy player getting hamstring injuries.

Very sad. I’ve been to Boundary Park many times for both the football and the rugby league.

How many points were we behind Fulham after the 0-7 banging ? We’d nearly caught them up until this week.

Bloody hell, getting stats like that is nearly impossible in a game of football.

In theory that works, in practice it doesn’t.

Not hard enough.

Super bit of skill to set himself up for the chance that should have led to a pen. What can you do if the ref has his eyes painted on ?

I once went to a Rugby League match at Oldham were they came out after half time and started with 14 players. They’d been playing about 10 minutes before the penny dropped and the referee was notified.

He’s gone backwards in the time he’s been at Rovers. Not every player improves with time and experience. Last night he was jaw droppingly bad in my opinion and I’ve seen some poor centre forwards at Rovers over the years.

We turned up thinking they’d just roll over. By the time we realised we had a game on our hands it was too late and we’d lost the initiative.

I think he would have dealt with their centre forward better than the other lads.

Hand on heart I don’t either. We haven’t got a strong enough squad and the manager isn’t good enough to get us promoted. It pains me to say that because we’ll never a better chance. Of course if the chicken chokers get the cheque book out things may change.

Kenny or Sparky or Big Sam could have done it. I accept that the people running the club at the moment probably couldn’t.

He got them out of the mire.

If we weren’t being run by the chicken chokers and we had a management team capable of spending that money wisely in such a short time scale I’d take it. That could get us three class players that would do more than one striker who’s hit and miss at the moment. Too many if’s in that idea though.
