I cant comment about Burns having not seen him but all Im saying against curtain teams a headless chicken upfront can be effective. Oddly a large number of Rovers fans seem to prefer this type of player compared to a more skilled one who chooses how they spend their energy.

To be fair Dolan playing as a false 9 can work well when applying high press. Times last season Dolan being the front man meant his high energy meant he chased down everything from pass backs to teams playing across the back four. When Buckley played as the link play between midfield and forward who also chased down meant we recovered the ball higher up the pitch. The problem is with Dolan is what he did once he gets the ball or when we are playing from the back. He cant hold the ball or have the ability to win a free kick

Didnt Natalie do the kit thing on Soccer AM....shame it was a Brentford kit.

Delap was No.17. Why would he be disappointed? He occupied both central defenders most of the game allowing others space, especially in the first half. He was key to their first half performance which should have them 3 or 4 up ay half time.

He was lucky to stay on the field but played out of position that night.

Oh aye! Positive to the end

Just bear in mind........Paul Ince won his first away game 4-0 Lets not get carried away

He always has done. He kept using us when flogging Collymore years ago saying we'd bid millions for him.

In deed it is valid point but this is the JDT thread but please tell me what influence has he on season ticket prices or how effective Waggot is? Sustainibility is a pont that has already been talked by JDT.

I see the common theme here......is it because youre called Matt why you are so negative?

I know he is an unknown quantity and we have had false dawns before but lets live in hope rather than fear!!! Yes the club still has its faults but surely there are other threads we can be negative on. Lets have one positive one for a time.......granted it may not last long.

For the first time in years, our beloved club has a positive week but you cant tell on here. On here its lets focus on the negative, lets focus on poor season ticket sales. Our new management team has brought a truly positive vibe. I dont give a flying fig how that has arrived but there those on here trying to crush it. Welcome to Greg and JDT.

How did a manager going upstairs and his assistant getting the manager's gig work the last time we tried it?

Johnson is a hardman.......its just he hasn't had the legs since he joined. TRavis isn;t hard....he's petulent a bit like Savage. He'll start a fight but then hide behind his minders

Bit naughty that......come on Mike name names

If its Bournemouth, then let him rot. Send him on loan to Oldham

Rather a short term contract is 8 months

I see the Scottish crock has signed a pre-contract with Rangers

They have Southern Combination........several times

how and why was it allowed to start then? Or did Emergency Services get a call and had to leave?

Glad we got Macron as kit suppliers, looks like Puma found a use for their design pitch to us

Enjoy

Looking like were 1 down on ITV. Oh Ive been told its Palace whose borrowed our 125th Anniversary kit

Short memory.....where did Rothwell play before this season?

yes but they've seen the video of possibly the only good things hes done in his career.
