You are correct, but the first topic of my discussion was a formation that did not include Bell. Then it changed to why I had suggested Chapman in the team. So the goalposts haven’t moved, there are just two of them

Rather than play Bell , yes.

I am not saying Mulgrew should be picked, I would play three at the back, dropping Bell. They had an extra man at the back because they realised they did not have to mark Bell, so gave him the freedom of the left wing in the second half and still he produced nothing. He is not good enough at championship level.

I think you will find that the position I have put him in, is as a wing-back which depending on what type of player you are, can be an attacking position

So why didn’t you just say that?

Where have I said I would? Don’t let the truth get in the way of a sarcastic quip.

At home.with a win needed, against Stoke. Yes. As you can see I would not go four at the back. I pick a side to beat our opponents of the day.

If someone is scoring regularly you don't replace them until they are not .

I’d go Walton Nyambe. Tosin. Lenahan Chapman. Downing Travis. Johnson Rothwell. Graham. Armstrong

the infirmary is on the right as you look, so the people are walking towards Ewood

I think that any idea to try to increase footfall at the Rovers should be tried. You mention a third off season ticket holders would be effected. by this I assume you mean almost everyone in the Blackburn end. I think you would find that season ticket holders who would object to the safe standing area and any disruption that would entail would be a very small number.

Brentfords number 10 was amazing he had our defence chasing their own tails.

on one occasion in the second half he was caught offside about a foot inside their half all he had to do was hold his run in his own half and he could not have been offside. This is where he lacks nounce. But that is why he is not playing premier league

At least we are getting into winning positions. I'd be more worried if we weren't.

After the game outside the Griffin pub I saw Danny Graham and Harry Chapman get into a car and drive off. Perhaps Tony Mowbray doesn’t want them on the coach as well as the field.

When we went two up they targeted our left side

You’re entitled to your opinion but they targeted our left back area for a reason

Bell is awful

Made it to the ground with two minutes to spare. Disappointed with losing a two goal lead, but thought we robbed them for the draw.

On the train to Euston 7 minutes late

for something to do at work

I couldn’t give a toss

Have we sold out yet ?

I remember that feeling well.
