Tyrone Shoelaces

In the Rochdale game he did nothing. He should have been a level above everybody else on the pitch. As it was he looked really ordinary. He didn’t look interested to be honest. Plus - he’s not very big. I know Alan Wright wasn’t very big either but he turned out to be top class, however players like him don’t come along very often.

It ended up a 1-1 draw in front of 9,406 fans. Rovers - Bradshaw Fazackerly, Keeley, Hawkins, Bailey Hird, Parkes, Taylor, Wagstaffe, Mitchell, Waddington No subs. Mitchell scored. A strange line up, 4 centre halves out there.

Bobby Mitchell I think.

That’s the one. We were never in the second half at all. Nobody did themselves any favours.

Yeah, Rochdale V Rovers earlier last season. We got battered.

The late great Bobby Moore’s last game apparently.

I watched Duru in that game at Rochdale. From what I saw he’s nowhere near ready for a first team spot. The game just passed him by.

There’s a typo on “ reigns “ guys. Should be “ reins “. Other than that - excellent.

Too right. Anybody who pulls that blue and white shirt on deserves our full support.

From what bits I’ve seen I can’t think of any of the “ kids “ that are ready for a serious run of games at Championship level.

If he could improve his decision making he’d be a much better player. Souey did that with Matt Jansen so somebody should be able to do the same with Dolan.

It’s on the back page of today’s “ Guardian “ with more of the story on an inside page. It’s featured as an exclusive by Tom Garry - “ Blackburn tell angry players WSL 2 place is in jeopardy. “ It doesn’t really tell us anything thst we on here don’t already know. It just refers to “ Blackburn “, it doesn’t mention the Chicken Chokers at all. It come to something when the women players have more balls than the men when it comes to speaking out !

Allegedly they had to chose between Taylor or Ball about who to sign.

I don’t get carried away with young players shining initially in their careers. The history of football is full of kids who looked great for a game or two. They’re playing on pure adrenaline. When that wears off ? Remember Adam Henley ?

Bruce Channel - Mister Bus Driver

I wonder if that’s a real “ Rolex “ he’s wearing ?

I’m not his biggest fan but I wouldn’t sell him unless somebody came in with a really good offer. Unlikely I know. I don’t think there’s much between him and Ribeiro in terms of ability but I still think Pickering is handy as a stand in left sided centre half in a back five.

It was a really bad, out of control, tackle that put him out. Their guy didn’t even get booked, I’m not sure we got a free kick !

Rod Thomas for Watford. As a school boy he was going to be the next big thing. Ewan Roberts, another one of those scary centre forwards that played with their front teeth missing !

You been at a pro club since the age of about 8. You’ve had pro coaching for about 20 years. And you still have a “ weaker foot “ ? What do they do at training ? Practise falling over ?
