  1. If anyone has been watching, Nyambe and Travis will be poached by clubs with ambition.
  2. For all the grief Rothwell gets, has Holtby touched the ball in the last 20 minutes? What a passenger.
  3. The 20 something year olds? No, they might get their feelings hurt. Better shield them from the real world until their contracts run out.
  4. It was over when we didn't pick up a point against the dross of Wigan and Barnsley. Leeds are a half decent side - although on this evidence they'll need to HEAVILY invest or they're coming straight back down. We're a mess of a team with no clear plan.
  5. The LUTV commentary is really, really poor. I get that commentating is a hard job and the in-house guys are always going to be biased - but bloody hell.
  6. Jesus Christ - who was that leaping like a salmon to clear that Leeds corner. Surely not Gallagher as he never does that in the opposition box!
  7. It's the same as when SKY do it. It's to stop Pubs illegally showing private licensed versions of the game - they obviously have to pay for a different version of the product.
  8. The 'useless' Rothwell looks our most likely player to create something at the moment.
  9. That's a red card, surely. Reckless, studs up lunge, by their right back.
  10. 33 league games is misleading. How many of those are 10 minute cameos? I'd wager 70%.
  11. I understood that you're terrified of Leeds. They'd have to play against good teams eventually if they're going to make it at this level - the result is irrelevant, so let them play now. If getting battered by Leeds breaks them mentally then they're never going to make it as professional footballers anyway.
  12. Completely finished at 34 in a doggers league after scoring 15 goals last season? Seems unlikely.
  13. Season's over. Give them 6 games to find their feet with the first team. Results are immaterial at this point. Bennett is out of his depth every week, but that doesn't stop Mowbray picking him.
  14. He's isolated him all season - despite him being the best CF on the books. Madness.
  15. At this point, with the season gone, he really needs to blood the youngsters. What do we get out of running Bennett out there at LB or Johnson at CM?
  16. He'd be our best player by a country mile.
  17. Apparently Lenegan's interested - leading a consortium. On a related note - I'd happily take administration and a 12 point deficit NOW to rid ourselves of the Venky's. If only.
  18. I think ideally you'd give him a run of games as the advanced man in a midfield three (or the tip of a diamond I guess). He never really gets enough games to settle - and he's not quite quick enough to be played out wide. He has enough skill to beat players, but not enough pace to pull away from them once he's beaten them, which means a lot of his passes / crosses are done so under pressure. For his sake I think he needs to move on. Mowbray has sent him backwards as a player.
  19. On the flip side, he's spunked £12m on two non-entities who he tries to shoe-horn into the squad (when he's not isolating one of them), completely unbalancing the side. This has also completely shafted us with FFP. He also has a L1 footballer as our Captain and fits him into the starting XI any way he can. Is the club in a better state than when he took over? Undoubtedly. Has he taken the club as far as he can? Almost certainly.
  20. Obviously Mowbray knew this was coming down the track, so put out that side against them. Likewise against Barnsley. He's a thoroughly good bloke is old Tones.
  21. Laugh? No. Care? No. Ever since the football community turned its back on us when we were pleading for help against our horrendous owners and their stooge manager, my attitude towards other football clubs has been 'get to fuck'.
  22. They were a PLC and the shareholders didn't want the club. A director bought it from them to take it private, but he has no money.
  23. That's because he's out of his league at this level.
  24. I didn't realise Brereton was playing CB.
  25. Their player stamped on Rothwell and wasn't sent off. He should be sacked I'm afraid - not fit to referee at this level.
