That's the first time he's been on the same pitch - training or otherwise - with Moran. -

Toys firmly out of the pram then. -

Their #10 just kicked the ball away after fouling Wharton. That was a yellow card in week 1. -

Matheus is like that Burnley lad last year - one trick pony, but it's a hell of a trick. -

Oh wow, unceremoniously booted from SKYSports Main Event - I wondered why they were talking about Sheffield Utd when I walked back into the room. -

It was. CB got there second and bundled Hedges over in a dangerous position. -

It's the first game I've seen Leonard really struggle - link up play is really good, but he's not a goal threat at the moment. I'd love him to get a L1 loan this week if we bring in a proper #9. He needs to play mens football week in, week out. -

And one of them was because Dolan was playing on his heels. -

If you supported JDT with any money he'd have us firmly in the Playoffs and pushing for automatic promotion. It's actually criminal. -

Can we get Moran on now for Dolan? We're playing with 10. -

When does that new set piece coach arrive...? -

For anyone arguing whether we're a weaker team this season - just playing A. Wharton in CM every game makes us better. What a player. -

We need to stop trying to walk it in - shoot on site. -

Sema a country mile offside before winning this free kick. EFL refs, never change. -

Yes. That's a very, very weak bench and the starting front 3 isn't much to write home about either. -
Tella is off to Bayer Leverkusen for £20m, apparently - and people wonder why I want the world for A. Wharton.

Yeah I think promotion is off the table - we haven't backed JDT enough.

How many goals do we reckon Kaminski is going to concede this season? I hope they at least doubled his wages, the poor sod. -

JDTs interview today - it's on the Rovers Twitter account. -
Another no-show when it matters from Lancashire. They've already started the clear-out with Lamb, Jones, Vilas and Parkinson all leaving. Time for Chilton and Chapple to follow suit - it's simply not good enough.

They need to have a conversation with ICC - they've implemented a third umpire beautifully. The main difference is that they allow a margin for error for the on-field call (e.g. Umpire's call for ball-tracking). VAR officials get their rulers and protractors out to judge whether a striker's toe is offside, which fundamentally changes how the game is officiated - the linesman can't see that on the field. To me they need to introduce some common sense back into it e.g. "yeah he's clearly offside there (not the heel of a defender playing him on etc) / yeah the ball has hit his hand there but it's not intentional / yeah he's caught him there but there's clearly no intent, so yellow card only". That would take brave officials though, which we're in very short supply of it seems. They hide behind a literal interpretation of the rules. -

I used to live near the Etihad Stadium - you saw the Man City (womens) team all the time. -

Which is quite a statement when you see them in person - they're all whippets.
