This messageboard then? Chadwell

They weren’t going to select potential contract rebels Hyam or Tronstad, so I can see the logic. Not sure if Todd’s got the personality for it, guess we’ll see

New standard this season

According to the enigmatic BRFCPrivy Travis is refusing to play. Could be true, could be false, or it could be the club trying to put the blame on Travis

I read this without my glasses on and thought it read Cantwell, Dolan and Markanday. Glad I was wrong.

Lots of bigging up Birmingham on here, are they really all that? To be honest I fear the referee more than them. Toth Miller Hyam McLoughlin Pickering Travis Tavares Hedges Cantwell De Neve Ohashi Yes, Travis. Should be reminded he is club captain and get on with business. If he's sold next week he's sold next week. He's still a rovers player, and I think he's professional enough to get that.

Yes, but for which team?

Oh yeah I forgot old Val. 4 points. Underestimated Bradford who were clearly out to take us down. Subs ineffective.

Here’s my take for those who didn’t get to watch the game. An alternative to Jackson’s Donald Duck ratings if you will. Michaelski - 4 Obviously not great when you gift the opposition a goal on your own, but made a few saves and was helpless for the first. Montgomery - 4 Responsible for the area of the pitch where their first goal came from, and gave the ball away dangerously a few times. Seems to fit better into midfield, but not ready to play there in the championship yet Miller - 6 Showed that he can play as a central defender although he seems better suited to right back where he can roam forward more. Assisted our goal with an absolutely massive long throw which will be a good weapon for us. Wharton - 6 Didn’t notice him too much, which is a good thing. Does tend to end up in the occasional spot of bother, just like before his injury. Good to see him back though. Pickering - 6 Solid, our problems didn’t start with him. I prefer him to Ribeiro personally. Henriksson - 5 Perhaps playing a bit out of position, gave the ball away a few times but some promising through balls that deserved better. Improved from Saturday, thankfully. Tronstad - 6 Not too involved, we’re used to better from him which maybe says more about the level of expectation. Midfield got worse when he went off though. Tavares - 7 Our best player tonight. Quick, mobile and technically good. Can play a bigger part this season than any of us expected De Neve - 6 He’s a funny one. Reminds me of Dolan when it comes to running power but not much else. Not going to create a lot of chances but takes up intelligent positions in the box. Took his goal really well. Would be much more useful if he can consistently find a good set piece delivery, which he can sometimes. Tyjon - 6 Showed Cantwell where, if not how, a nr 10 should play. Obvious talent, good vision and brave on the ball. Needs to bulk up a little, too easily dispossed for now Gueye - 3 I’m sorry but that was awful. Didn’t win headers, didn’t help out defensively, didn’t make the right choices when through. Can’t be bothered with the subs. None of them were very good. Maybe Cantwell, but get the fudge up the pitch man

Shame. Would have been good for our young keeper with a shootout

It really wasn’t

Bradford are far better at set pieces than we ar

Come on Cantwell, you’re better than this

For once, I agree with you on Tronstad. Poor Saturday, poor today.

Getting his chance in central midfield now

To be honest our recruitment doesn’t seem too bad. McLoughlin impressed on saturday and Tavares today. Miller, Alebiouso, Henriksson and De Neve maybe not the championship stars we would want but all showing some useful attributes at least.

Tavares, sorry. Blame the poor resolution stream

Come on ref. That tackle on Gueye is a red

Bandage FC combining for the goal

De Neve! Scores when he wants

It will be interesting to see Kargbo down that left later on, should be entertaining

Beginning to dominate a little now. Tavares, Henriksson and Tyjon looking good.

Ref has a new rule, Gueye can not touch the ball
