Whilst I don't watch it, clubs in that league have more revenue per club than the Championship. Although they do seem to operate smaller wage budgets, but I think you get worse value for money in the Championship due to the Prem being within reach and players coming down on mega wages. I'd expect it's not much weaker if it's weaker.

The way JRC has played this season if have rather used Duru in that role and work patiently with JRC until he has proper full fitness, which he doesn't seem to have right now. When he isn't fully fit he is terrible. When he is fully fit he's a very useful player. Hasn't had any major injuries this season though I think, and hasn't been played to death like others, you'd think he'd be ready. Perhaps not quite shaking niggles though, and if you train instead of resting sometimes they just don't go away.

In fairness, we made six permanent signings for the first team this summer, plus three loans. January is basically the MLS' summer window.

Barely been tried there, and not at all I believe whilst in his best form lately. But I'm happy to keep him at RB too. A position we don't have tons of quality. Resting him occasionally with an RB sub may have avoided that injury he got and may get again.

Alan Wright was 5 ft 4 mate. According to Wiki, Duru is 5 ft 9.

If anyone is going to remember this, I'd say it's @Tyrone Shoelaces

Hopefully it's a lot fucking better than the Forshaw news

Because one Plymouth reject isn't enough?

If you're waiting for Chaddy to admit he was wrong about something, you'll be waiting a long time. I can't think of one time that's happened.

Huh?

Dunno if it's not more that they think we are.

Even that spaffing could have resulted in a large profit on BBD and probably only a slight loss on Gallagher if contracts were protected and they were sold at the right time. Goes to show you have to invest (and not dick up the sale point and contracts).

Knowing that will happen, as you clearly do, and with half the first team seemingly injured, it seems appropriate to commence with the doom and gloom. We're in a proper rut and we've all seen this movie before.

Shouldn't have bothered watching this - I might as well have put a replay of the Stoke game on. Practically the same fucking game.

I'd bench him for whoever just to put a rocket up his arse.

It certainly seems like we usually get them during morale-sapping defeats, just to make things even worse.

Can't remember if I posted it, but I said making all the subs with 30+ minutes left was a mistake. And now we have JRC hobbling around, worsening whatever injury he just picked up. Adrenaline is clearly getting him through it, nice ball from him to Gueye there, but I'd be surprised if he's not out for weeks after this.

I did say I wouldn't have sent him out yet. Sanderson will be starting the next few games, we'd better hope he's up to it. Litherland too, who might need to be brought on at some point.

A tug? Hyam slightly touched him, very briefly. He felt a slight touch and went to ground. I'd have been tempted to book him for diving.

I don't see much between them on evidence so far. I'm fairly sure both of those goals tonight are going in against Pears too. He's improved a lot but he isn't any good in either of those situations.

Can't be serious? That would have been one of the weakest penalties I've ever seen. Someone slightly touched his arm for a millisecond and he collapsed like his skeleton had just imploded.

Hmm just to extend the painful hope for a bit longer.

Don't think he'd have gotten away with this shit tonight if Travis and Tronstad were fit.

It's the most composed I've seen him too. He often looks like he's just scrambling away making hasty decisions but he's been taking his time at the right moments. Deserved a goal just there too. Their keeper has had a good game. Not quite Johansson levels, but he's been a real thorn. In a normal game at least one of those has gone in by now.

Exactly, and I'm so fucking tired of it happening every single season.
