16 year old, tall for his age, physically strong, does not look out of place in the U23s, great vision, very calm under pressure and shows good decission making. Seems to instill confidence into the defensive units he has played in. He sees a pass early and has the ability to play it.

I still think I will be getting a play-off final ticket, rather than a summerfest ticket.

You keep comparing Phillips to other players. You have to see Phillips for himself. Not only has he got a physical pressence, but he has a calm ability, and simple passing technique, that means for the most time he doesn't need his physicality. He is good enough to be on the bench, now. It may also be a way to sell the club to him.

Are you allowed to use someone else's season ticket ?

So you would drop Wharton ?

For me the main cause for concern is, what are the club doing to try to encourage people to attend the games. It seems to be very little.

I take it you have never seen him play. Get down to the U23s on Monday and watch him. I bet our strikers are not stronger than him, hence he trains with the first team. Basic evolution is a principle not a rule.

Well I totally disagree with you. The one thing he would not be is absolutely bullied. I am not advocating starting Phillips, but if someone had to come on at center-half he would be a better option than Johnson. He steps up to U23 level, and he is made captain. you don't do that with someone who gets bullied.

I would put Ash Phillips on the bench as cover for center-half. If needed I am sure he could fill in

That is where the defensive side of being a wing back comes in, adding numbers to the midfield.

But again, your question was, who was played out of position. Not why did we lose.

I gave you my opinion on your question of, who was played out of position against Forest.

That doesn't make them the right positions. For me both are attacking midfielders. Rothwell is playing too deep. Buckley is not a number nine, false or otherwise.

Nyambe, Buckley, Rothwell.

1. Buckley replace with Dolan 2.Lenihan replace with Ayala. 3. Zeefuik replace with Nyambe. Not difficult to work out. Will Mowbray see it ?

If Mowbray is gone the offer will be a bargain.

I doubt we will fill the Darwen end lower, and millwall will not fill the upper. So all that needs to happen is Rovers in the lower nearest the Jack Walker. Millwall in the upper nearest the Riverside.

I can see the reasoning behind Zeefuik over Nyambe. As for me, Nyambe is the best right full-back, but we play with wing-backs not full-backs. Let's see how Zeefuik performs at right wing-back.

Still nothing on the Rovers site. They really should be on sale tonight, so people have the option of not making an extra trip to Ewood to get the tickets.

You may have got this spot on.

Or the Chorley game was overpriced !

The tickets for the ladies game are now on sale. Read all about it.

Millwall site advertising tickets at £20 for adults. Sod all on the Rovers site. Perhaps if anyone sees Waggot at the game tonight, they could ask him why not.

Yes, those are the players to pick. Just not necessarily in that order. Says TM.

Here's hoping.
