  1. That railway open end was always feisty.
  2. Nyambe is fairly weak in the air, that is a major drawback for a center-half.
  3. Just back from the game, we never looked in any sort of trouble. I was very impressed with Adam Wharton and Jake Batty.
  4. I didn't realise Cirino was injured. If all the injuries did come about, I would change the system and go with a back four of, Nyambe, Ayala, Van Hecke, Wharton.
  5. It wasn't a choice, but if you follow the conversation, Cirino is the only left back/wing back, that would be available.
  6. Burns going to Scunny
  7. It was mentioned that McBride could be going to Crewe on loan.
  8. To my mind, I don't look at our past results at Cardiff. I look at it as, we are challenging for promotion, a draw away to a team struggling near the bottom of the league is not good enough. And will not keep the pressure on our challengers.
  9. I think that was more along the lines of, sarcasm.
  10. To compound the confussion, the keeper took the free-kick from the edge of the six yard box.
  11. I hope he is going to Cardiff.
  12. If we are planning for promotion, a draw at Cardiff is not a result to be happy with.
  13. What I couldn't understand was giving Chapman a contract extension, but then loaning him out. I don't see how that was a benefit to the Rovers.
  14. Was it not the defender who ran into the attacker. Or as I saw it the attacker who was coming back from an off-side position deliberately blocked a defender from getting back into a defensive position. It happens a lot at practiced set pieces.
  15. From what I have seen of Eastham for the U23s, he is average at best. A good shot stopper with good distribution. But again, as it seems with most of our keepers, poor decision making and does not control the box. I have never been a believer in, if other people have done it, then it is the best thing to do. But even by your examples, Eastham is two inches shorter than Given.
  16. I would say Eastham is too short. I have not seen enough of Hilton or the Greek lad to make a decission.
  17. He made more than the three mistakes. There was also a missed punch when Wigan hit the bar.
  18. He seems to have dropped off the radar.
  19. The thing is, that second goal won't even make a bloopers tape, as it wasn't even funny, it was just unbelievable.
  20. I don't get the relevence of being tried in the English leagues 1 and 2. Before that he was loaned out to four lesser clubs in the Scottish league. I don't see how that makes him a better prospect than Hedges ?
  21. Gally was only on for the first 30 miutes or so.
  22. Go on, give us a clue. What is that meant to mean, in relation to my comment about Pears ?
  23. I have seen Don Martin and Ritchie Smallwood make a better fist of being in goal.
