Tom

Whilst I find some bits and bobs interesting I don’t subscribe to the full statto thing that’s all the rage these days. Football isn’t like American football where everything is stats based on yards etc. Nyambe does so much that stats can’t pick up, his drive often can turn ambling midfield possession into attack and his running wins lots of corners (granted we are shocking from them)

Preston 2 points behind us, let’s see where we end up after them taking action

Pretty sure I met Suhail at that time, he was Balajis right hand man pretty much, his Mr Fix It

Tony points out the difference in their final third compared to ours https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/19175864.what-jumps-you---mowbrays-verdict-norwich-draw/ Tom points out that Brereton cost £7m and Pukki was a free transfer

Think he’ll be dining out on this result for a long time now

Brereton scored from a corner a few weeks back

It is bizarre that the tall lad who plays up front manages to get a goal in the middle

Big Sam!

Awaiting the usual tweets tonight ‘Did you expect us to beat Norwich? We held them for 45 minutes’

Out of interest how many points is it for playing well in the first half?

Sherwood making it sound like Norwich are going easy on us and just going through the motions

Sounds we’ve done ok there. However when 16 points from the play offs it’s hard to take a good first half where we have gone in level in isolation

Nearly typical Rovers, on top without doing any damage, give the ball away and they nearly score!

Remember that time we played United and they needed a draw to win the league and we needed a draw to stay up and we spent 20 minutes passing around the back four, this team would have smashed it in that game

Nearly drifted off a few times here. We just spent a full minute passing across our back four

Hard to single anyone out but Brereton has been a waste of a shirt recently, more interested in falling over than anything else

He is actually gifted in that regard he could have cost us a few this season but so far gone unpunished

That’s awful from Barry Shitpeas

Better than it has been and the more proactive team but far far from inspiring, in fact I was bored

Wish we’d stop the half assed back passes to Kaminski it’s asking for trouble on this pitch

Rothwell is ridiculous when he sets off on a run

Bloody hell what a shoddy free kick

Palmer got past JRC 3 times easily so far, he keeps falling over when trying to defend

I’m as critical of Douglas as anyone but that’s a gorgeous cross

I thought the last game summed Rothwell up, lots of direct running and real potential but somehow played the two worst passes in the game as well. Like Kasey Palmer (although different styles but almost identical stats this season) all the parts of his game are there it just doesn’t always click at once
