What has happened with Ethan Walker. He wasn't even on Oldhams bench tonight ?

If Szmodics does leave, I actually think Markanday will be ahead of Dolan for the central role, with Sigurdsson being first choice.

Leaving it till the season is over, when you have nothing to play for, is just a waste of time.

To get a new man in for pre-season.

The game is on Sunday.

I agree with the first three, number four would be an added bonus.

Why would you be a season ticket holder, when you are a player ?

I would say it is more of a must not lose game.

I think Wharton left at the right time, to the right sort of club. If you are looking at a wrong move, look no further than Ash Phillips.

What we need and what we can afford will be two completely different things. I would settle for a good keeper, and one effective winger, be it left or right.

I like to think so

The most important thing is to score more than the opposition.

We could do with a real pathway blocker in goal.

It was a reference to a grammatical error (the difference between resign and re-sign) in a previous post, please follow the conversation before butting in.

The main thing that Batty has/had is natural pace. That was/is something that the squad lacks. Buying in a player with that speed would cost a lot, hence the Rovers took the risk. Now it looks like the Rovers may hope that Gent, who was always Battys understudy, may fill that role.

I agree.

I would put a dayglo sticker on the send button.

When you keep up with someone, you are not faster than them. If you think Dolan is fast so-be-it. By the way Szmodics isn't fast either.

He might have sprinted 50 yards, just not faster than anyone else.

Or perhaps he wants rid of Dolan ?

When has Dolan shown any pace, his legs move fast but his body doesn't. He is deceptively slow.

Your last statement answers your own question, of why cover was not originally brought in. Probably it was the same with Adam Wharton, except that one worked out.

That may be because his name leads easily to the simple chant.

Because Roversfan99 said that Batty has never shown that he could play for the first team, so we should have signed another left sided defender. Your first statement puts doubt on that.
