  1. They're not going to relegate Man City.
  2. The turd that just won't flush.
  3. What kind of transfer fees to Motherwell usually pay? 👀
  4. If we were at full strength and flying Newcastle were there for the taking last night. Alas January happened.
  5. He's very similar to Dack imo - dangerous in possession in and around their box, but not much use without the ball. He's a luxury player for a team that plays on a front foot.
  6. He's always looked like a L2 player when he's played for us before last night. He's useless out wide - he's far too small and slow to trouble FBs. I've said for a while that he's a #10 - if you watch the players warm up he's easily our best finisher. Maybe the 3-4-2-1 that Eustace seems to favour will allow him to play more centrally to show what he can actually do.
  7. S. Wharton (the S. is now sadly defunct when talking about a Wharton in Rovers colours 😞 ) has looked better recently because he's playing in a back 3 again. It suits his strengths and hides his weaknesses. Hyam looks much better too. It's a much easier system to play in for a CB - much more margin for error.
  8. What you're forgetting is that we looked great against PL teams in the FA cup last year with JDT's style of play too. The Championship is much more about blood, guts and thunder with absolute cloggers harrying and making everything a physical battle. PL players want to actually play football - which is why Ayari and Moran looked good yesterday.
  9. Murphy criticised all of Szmodics' shots last night - and Gordon's shot that Pears saved. He's become an incredible footballer in retirement.
  10. I bloody hope not - we need a GK coming through the Academy. Eastham isn't good enough.
  11. Then you'd be a knobhead too. He's paid handsomely to be an impartial pundit.
  12. He got a performance out of Markanday and Moran and Ayari didn't look out of place at CM. He might be a miracle worker.
  13. To be fair they've just beaten a far more successful club at their home ground - it's a big win for them. One of the biggest nights in their history you'd think.
  14. Great player for us, but his heart lies with Newcastle - we were just a job to him (albeit the only job he won anything with).
  15. C'mon, he's been unrecognisable tonight. He never runs away from players in the Championship.
  16. The only time Newcastle have been booked is when they've literally rugby tackled our players.
  17. Outmuscled the Newcastle player, therefore, foul.
  18. No. Koumetio is playing LB, Chrisene is playing LM.
  19. Their GK has had a blinder, I don't fancy us against him in penalties.
  20. To be fair he's picked up several points that I didn't expect us to get already.
  21. Have to win this in ET - this ref is liable to make us re-take every successfully converted spot kick at this rate.
  22. Special guest referee - he'll pull off his orange top to reveal a Newcastle top at full time.
