  1. 2 headed goals I believe.
  2. If what Kamy is saying is correct I suspect any sort of offer for Wharton will do.
  3. We'll be accepting any offers that come our way, especially for what Mowbray perceives as fringe players.
  4. If we are potless I wouldn't be bothering with Downing any longer. In fact I wouldn't be bothering with Downing full stop.
  5. Just like the Rhodes money.
  6. Cheaper - yes, midtable - unlikely.
  7. We should have thanked him for getting us promoted and then showed him the door. Enthusiasm for the club was on a high and we were well placed to attempt a serious push for promotion. Instead he's managed to dissipate that feel good feeling and blow whatever chances of serious advancement we have with this ludicrous " slow build " concept of football management. It was obvious at the time to those with eyes that see that he wasn't the man to take us any further. You've got to be ruthless to succeed in pro football.
  8. Much as I like both of those players " prized jewels " is a bit of an exaggeration. Certainly in Mowbray's head.
  9. I don't want to be argumentative but good headers of the ball playing up front score their fair share of headed goals, he didn't.
  10. It's not every day you see our owners and the word clever mentioned in the same sentence.
  11. Sat Sept 26th. Rovers 3- Leicester 1 Att - 14,964 Scorers - McEvoy, Ferguson, Byrom. Jones. Newton, Joyce. Clayton, Mulvaney, McGrath. Ferguson, McEvoy, Byrom, Douglas, Harrison.
  12. I was right behind the goal as well, sort of in line with the path of the ball. I can't agree he was a good header of the ball. He had a great spring in his legs and he could get up for a header better than most but after that where the ball went was another story.
  13. Our whole scattergun approach to recruitment gets me down. We're no nearer to having a consistently coherent way of playing now than we were 3 years ago. We don't ever seem to know our best team for more than a couple of games. I find it really difficult to believe that an experienced professional management team could have got things so badly wrong for so long.
  14. On a scale of 0 to 10, 10 being wildly enthusiastic I'd say I'm on about 2 at the moment.
  15. Will that be before we get to 250 pages or 300 ?
  16. I see they've just signed the Greek lad to cover for Robertson.
  17. He wasn't the sort of player to chase lost causes out on the pitch even when he was fully fit. I don't think he's probably got more in the tank than coming on for the last 1/2hr these days a la Danny Graham.
  18. I'd have the Rudy that left us back in a flash but the current Rudy isn't that person. He's had well documented injury problems and for me it's significant that Warnock realised he was a busted flush with days of taking over at 'Boro.
  19. Maybe he thought you said " there's a few good names there " by mistake.
  20. We're not just after a No1 goalkeeper matey we're after a No1 and a No2. How many other clubs have no senior goalkeepers ?
  21. It's all about conning the officials to gain an advantage, the crowd doesn't come in to it. Basically it's cheating. We used to be scathing about " Cheating Argies "or " Cheating Eyties " . Now we are worse than they are in my opinion.
  22. If you were picking a team on fighting spirit and will to win alone he'd be one of the first names on the list - along with Kevin Moran out of that team.
  23. Great stuff. A few comments. Plenty of good football played by both side on a tip of a pitch. Today it would have ended up 9 a side. 3 goals came from wingers getting around teams. The lad Reid was a good player. Not enough sideways passing and keep ball for todays fans, plus it might have got a bit too exciting for them.
