  1. Sadly the parachute payments mean that you can waste £110m in one season and still be ok in the Championship. Realistically Burnley should be stuffed - they'll just bounce back up next year.
  2. We knew it was a disaster when they sold A. Wharton and weren't allowed to replace him.
  3. You have to have exceptional WBs to ask them to be the focal point of the attack...
  4. We're not much better at home. I don't know if this is the style of football Eustace wants to play long-term or he's just adapting to the players he's got at his disposal, but it's clearly going to be a scrap every game until the end of the season to accumulate enough points to survive.
  5. Hyam is hilarious btw - often treats the ball like it's a hot potato, but then randomly goes on a run from CB in the second half. We're lucky him losing the ball there didn't end up in a PNE goal.
  6. I thought it was a battling performance against an in-form PNE at home. We're woefully out of form - I'm delighted with a point (less so having been 2-0 up), I thought we'd get battered.
  7. He's a luxury player who wants the ball at his feet in and around the area. He's being asked to chase lost causes in this formation. He got back and defended well in the second half, which isn't what he's known for.
  8. Everything is being lumped over his head.
  9. I think he's scared to make a tackle these days - anytime he goes in hard he gets booked. It's neutered him as a player.
  10. I'd have liked them both - and a properly run team could have had them both.
  11. As I've said before, I used to be so proud to be a Rovers supporter. Now it's just embarrassing and they upset me most weekends.
  12. This is what he does - has a good couple of games then has an absolute stinker.
  13. Cos we've changed tactics and without A. Wharton sat in midfield nobody wants to take responsibility. The CBs are just happy lumping it forward to Gallagher and hoping for a flick on.
  14. Keane bitching about being blocked off is hilarious - that's all PNE have done all game.
  15. I'm looking forward to watching Wigan play rugby later - didn't realise I'd be watching a scrum at 3pm. Good lord - PNE getting away with absolute murder on both those set pieces.
  16. If the owners reinvested the money he would be. So would Leonard.
  17. Credit where credit is due. He was awful against Birmingham, but he's been a menace today.
  18. Oh dear, another one fooled by Waggott.
  19. More secure at the back, playing with 3 CBs and better upfront with Szmodics playing up alongside Gallagher (rather than lost in a midfield 3).
  20. PNE fans cheering an injury then booing when play is stopped. You stay classy, Preston.
  21. Imagine what JDT could have done with the financial backing Mowbray got. Makes you weep.
