Elliot Jackson shown up a bit there, basically said the move was in doubt due to the Posh Chairman’s tweet and then it was confirmed just afterwards.

Never liked Hyam after his ‘calm down’ gesture in injury time in a game we needed to win, rubber dinghy man - but that aside you can’t make an argument for it being logical at this point in the window. Feels like a long season incoming.

That’s a lot of money for Hyam but still a terrible deal given the timing and lack of replacement.

Hyam is an unspectacular but steady championship centre half, steady being the key word, it would be stupid to let him go now. Wharton isn’t up to the task and Carter is a crock sadly.

Do we manage to field a team and full set of subs? I remember a couple of decades back seeing Rishton ladies playing Everton or one of the big clubs down on the field behind Norden, Rovers ladies don’t seem far from being back at that point. A remarkable step back.

Pears is a below average championship keeper, capable of great saves but dodgy like most are. From what I’ve seen I prefer Toth but he’s clearly a better back up option than the alternatives, if we can’t get a decent fee for him I’d keep him around.

My prediction for the day: 1 signing 2 sales 32 interactions between Chaddy and RF99

So for the first time in history (and probably the last) Pasha was right if he managed to get a bit extra in terms of add ons out of McAnthony and Posh? I feel ill just typing that!

He’s not really in a much different position to when he was here though, half decent, steady championship type.

Poor result and Mcloughin has to take a huge amount of blame even though we were second best till then. Against a tough challenge we did pretty well but the second was always likely. Think we’ll be ok this season but it’s a poor start.

Some finish that to be fair

I was a fan last season but it’s awful from Gueye, he looks done here

Cantwell needs to calm down there he’s being silly

Love those two crosses on the move from RA

Now that is poor refereeing that time, no reason to stop the quick throw in

Hedges needs to lift that but Tronstad should be shooting there

Decent header first one but needs to score, stunning goalkeeping to be fair

I’d have been tempted to put Miller on along with Gueye, if a throw in anyway in the final third becomes an opportunity we need to try it

Why should they change? If it meant you can’t have a red for conceding a penalty there’s no incentive not to take a man down when about to score or handling on the line. The rules are fine, our defenders decision was the issue

yes I have to confess I’m not sure on the word of the law now and if it matters where the foul starts or ends as he had hold of him outside then still inside. Either way it’s the most blatant red card and 100% the fault of our lad

If it’s a genuine attempt to win the ball you wouldn’t be sent off, a trip or pull like that and it’s both

100% a red card and if it’s in the box it’s a penalty as well it’s shocking from an experienced pro

The only argument would be the double jeopardy rule but if he’s decided he’s not gone to win the ball then it’s right.

Seems we’ve had 3-4 shots but some blocked

I don’t think Kargbo is rubbish but he’s frustrating and when we are up and running with the new signings shouldn’t be a starter Understand the unchanged team today and he got an assist last week but get Morishita on at half time
