Dack might not have played a first team game by December. Who's going to sign him in those circumstances ? You'd have to see him play a few games first and be sure that he's back were he was before the injury. Teams in danger of relegation can't afford to take gambles like that.

Not all of us were. I said at the time he might be the new Damian Duff but he's much more likely to be the new Keith Treacy. You can look it up if you like.

I took my youngest son to that one for his second ever game. He's still a fan even after that dire performance. Notable for the very expensive Stuart Munro's only appearance in a Rovers shirt. I think this was the final straw for Jack Walker and Don was on his way out.

Yes, that's where he should be playing in games such as that one.

So in spite of all that technology we still signed two non scoring strikers ?

I can't honestly recall another game were we were so much on top in a game that we lost. It was ridiculous.

There will always be gems to be found in the lower leagues. My local Club, Rochdale, brought quite a few through over the last few years. Craig Dawson to name just one. tI's being able to spot them that's the secret. That and being able to mend them if they're a " broken toy " sometimes. The guys that have lost their way, just like another one Keith Hill fixed, Grant Holt.

Only in theory.

You can put Walton in with them.

I think " Dolan cementing a place " is being a bit optimistic. Another quiet game against Forest and he'll be on the bench again.

I don't know about that but I could see them finishing higher up in the league than us, even with our 7 point start.

Dido Harding would beg to differ.

Those of us old enough to remember had a great time " looking up rather than down " when we won the Prem. As a result of only looking at what was going right and ignoring what could have been Improved upon, from a position of terrific strength, we began the gradual decent that ended in relegation. One of my managers favourite sayings was " Never mind what's going right, that'll take care of itself, today we work on what's going wrong ".

He'll have time to bring a couple of players in also.

Or a Givet or two.

How did that get past Mimms ?

I'd swap Mowbray for Hughton tomorrow. The Forest game has just got a whole lot more difficult. It's just gone from Wycombe Mk2 to Cardiff Mk2.

I think that might be a season too far for Charlie.

I'll bet you didn't think so at the time ! I didn't.

I don't think he's Prem standard either.

He'd have to improve as a defender 100%. However if you're the sort of football manager that thinks John Stones is the answer at centre back you may well be right.

Another bad day at the office.

I agree that he's got to be handled with care until he's physically capable of playing 90 minutes regularly.

Where was Mimms going - to buy a pie ?

You've got to be making more than one good chance per game if you've got the likes of Gallagher, Brererton and Rothwell getting on the end of them.
