Tyrone Shoelaces

Do we do " nils " ? I thought there was a rule we had to give the opposition a goal start.

Warnock was head and shoulders above any full back we've had at the club for a good while.

Exactly, we all thought Matty would come back from the bang on the head but he didn't. Recovering from serious injuries can be 50% physical and 50% mental. Some players can do it and some can't.

If I were Dack I'd be signing whatever contract Rovers put in front of me. Who's to say he's going to reach the same levels again ? Looking good in training when your mates are deliberately taking it easy against you is one thing, doing it against opponents who know you'll be vulnerable to a bang on the knee is another thing altogether.

When I was out in Spain last year I was looking at shirt prices out there. Malaga and Granada are the two local teams. Really nice shirts but quite a bit more expensive than our shirts

That's better, I'd probably buy that Stuart. How much are you asking ?

I'm just hoping they bring out a shirt worth buying for once. The blue in the photo is the real Rovers blue. That's a good start.

Nice header from Lenny.

You forgot the goalkeeper that was coming who ended up back in Jockland.

Unlucky there.

You need at least 4 centre backs who can play at a good level, maybe even 5. If you can get a good bench warmer for peanuts what's not to like from West Brom or Leeds point of view. I hope we get the lad, I've only seen him play once but of that one viewing he looked to be a proper defender.

Regarding Nyambe's injuries lots of quick players are prone to muscle injuries unfortunately.

I would agree with that .If we're looking for a " stopper " style of centre half, and I think we should be, he appears to fit the bill. This " playing out " from the back at our level is tantamount to giving the opposition a goal start.

Crazy idea. Nobody I played with had a pair of those.

I hope this lad is a good 'un, but how many games did Lowe play for us ?

" Totally Wicked Tommy " - let's hope he is.

Obviously we aren't counting the kid we got from Preston, who may turn out to be a very significant signing in the future.

Just before we got to 300 pages !

I think so.

Puma for me.

As we've found out to our cost in the past the big problem is holding on to them once they start to shine at a serious level.

I agree but is he going to be fully fit ? He's had his share of injury problems in the last couple of seasons.

I don't think he got jail time.

Looks like a classic !

The weather this side of Manchester has been poor all day but since mid afternoon it's been constant heavy rain. Sunny Blackpool eh ?
