Dolan for Dack, maybe? Just to bring some energy into the pressing. We're not getting cut through in midfield and we don't have any fresh legs to bring on at FB so we're kind of hamstrung with regards to changes.

Brereton-Diaz hasn't returned from the World Cup break - he was our only consistent goal scoring threat. That's the difference - missed a sitter again today.

C'mon. We're playing JRC at RB - he was unplayable under Mowbray. Hedges looks like our best player and couldn't get a game last year. He's improved a lot of players - he just doesn't have enough good ones to play THIS system... but he's determined to stick with this system, so it is what it is until Broughton pulls his finger out.

Vyner has flown in recklessly and cleaned Buckley out. Straight red card that - you've set your stall out, ref, bloody stick by it.

That's a red card!!!

Did he foul Wells? I certainly don't think so - and don't give me "you shouldn't give the ref the decision to make". If he makes the wrong decision (which he did) he shouldn't be officiating at this level.

Would be lovely if refs booked their players for innocuous fouls too. Disgraceful refereeing that. Wells has thrown himself to the ground - I take it back - dive all you want JRC.

I mean the GK has basically thrown it in to the back of his own net there - I'm not sure what you're meant to do as the manager. It's a nothing shot and suddenly it's 1-1.

I wonder when JDT will be allowed to bring in his own coaching staff?

Another howler from Kaminski. I wonder if they're bringing in this other keeper to replace him rather than back him up!

In the Prem, sure. Down here with the cloggers you'd give 3 pens every match if you're giving that.

No place for it in the game.

Why isn't Brereton-Diaz heading that? Zero confidence, that's why.

Get up, JRC, you fucking cheat.

Lovely goal, that.

He's like Armstrong - clearly not good enough for the PL, which is why I was desperate to cash in.

No subs for at least 15 mins is my guess.

I'd like to hear them lament about it for a good 20 minutes while the game peters out tbh.

Brittain was meant to bring some of that down the right, sadly he's been injured. Neither Pickering or JRC can get up and down the flanks (both bad athletes) so you're left lacking. A quick #9 would make a world of difference for sure - we're very easy to press because there's just no threat of us playing the ball in behind you.

I hope we win with a goal deflected off someone's arse. It's the only way to make this kind of commentary bearable.

I think JDT is 'punishing' Gallagher for his performance last week... however that means he has to play Vale. I assume Dolan still isn't fully match fit because even though he's tiny he brings much more to the table.

There's no pace and no goals (with this version of Brereton-Diaz and Dack dropping so deep) in this front 4.

This ref is very quick to book our players I've noticed...

He doesn't even look like he's trying, which is my biggest complaint.

He's good technically - both on the ball and off it. He's just not athletic enough - you can run him very easily.
