dingles staying down 4ever

I think the lad from Birmingham is JRC replacement. Youve got the wrong double barrelled name there.

Set to sign for Derby in Jan

With the number of chances we create he is going to have be very clinical

McGuire had a photo with the top on means nothing

Actually thought Cantwell was poor yesterday. The number of times he tried tackling on the wrong side of the Norwich players was alarming although he was far from the worst Rovers player. Kargbo is just poor, full stop. The new Japanese player looks more light weight than Ohashi. Tavares needs to get to the pace of the championship. Wharton and McLoughlin both too slow. Gueye isn't the only player who does not understand the offside rule as Ohashi also likes to stray. The attacking ball from midfield is usually released that split second too slow, I could go on. It is a sad review that finishes with the words 'IMO Ryan Hedges was our best player'

Looking forward to today's match which is usually a bad sign.

I think a lot depends on when Leonard's started to stir. We were in for one striker before Leonard's exit became public so if Leonard's transfer has dragged on then we probably have that wage earmarked for the one. But if the deal has come out of the blue possibly there is enough for two wages. Please note how Ive not included the fee as we all know the fees dont effect the transfer budget.

Tend to agree with you especially after the seriousness of his injuries but there is still a nagging doubt that this transfer we may regret .

Or Rovers using the scatter gun approach?

Two things I remember Hildersley for was scoring a worldie at Shrewsbury and scoring at Welling in the cup.

How can we forget him? Arrived on a free from 4th Division Preston, maybe even seeking re-election at the time. I can just imagine the reaction on here if we were to sign a similar player now.🤣

No, whichever centre half it was, he lazily stuck out a leg and tapped the ankle half hearted after the ball was moved on by the Brum player.

To be honest I think he trying to deflect the blame but at the end of the day he can blame who he wants, he is the accountable one.

Karbo's was a great chance for someone confident heading the ball. It was a relative free header well inside the box. Gueye's header should have broke the net but it was a good save from the keeper. If Hyamn leaves the header and allow Miller coming from a different angle to head that would have a great chance as well rather than header across goal to no one.

Thanks I cant remember his name yet

Agree but an experienced centre half should know what to do in the circumstances. Under no circumstances should he allow their player to break with the ball. If ever there was a case of taking a yellow for team it was then and showed why he is no longer captain.

To me if the new number 2 I dont think either Brum goal happens. I think his injury turned the game and the way many Rovers players looked mentally knackered after 60 minutes was also a major concern.

You dont know that.

It wouldn't have happened if Hymn takes the player out properly rather than just stick out a leg and tap the players ankle.

More likely Fraser Foster allowing hair transplant boy to leave😃

No.4 and 8 were midfielders not holding not box to box, just midfielders. They were expected to do it all. When one attacked the other held or vice versa. Although at Liverpool, Stevie Nicol usually wore 4 and he was a right back

Phillips only played due to the lack of experienced cbs. At every opportunity that there was experienced available he was dropped. Wharton's long term injury gave Phillips a boost up the pecking order. JDT's first game Phillips wasnt even the first choice Academy player to come on with Barnes coming on ahead of him. Barnes' long term injury gave him another boost up the pecking order. If those two hadnt been injured Phillips COULD have been even lower down the pecking order and so his first team playing time was limited. Phil Jones one the other hand held onto his first team place when circumstances prevailed because he looked comfortable in the first team where as Phillips sometimes looked uncomfortable at times so I think Phillips wouldnt have got as much championship experience now if he had stayed at Rovers

There are other factors but I agree money was probably the driving force. But joining Spurs opens other doors to career progression. Even at Under 21 level being at a London or a big 6 club increases the chance of International recognition. You ask why top championship clubs havent signed him, that is sample. They want proven talent as they want promotion not somebody else's project. Time will tell if he has chosen the correct path but I agree with RF99 in that if he had stayed here he wouldn't have played the number of games in the championship that he already has. JDT played him only because he had to, if we had signed Batth the season before, like we supposed to, then he wouldn't have played that number.

When we play Shrewsbury in a cup?

IMO it is bloody awful. I hope we use the third kit rather than that turd kit
