  1. I am on the 09:17 train from Preston.
  2. Because I work for the company who they usually hire the aircraft from, and I might have got a free trip.
  3. West Brom may do that
  4. I would have thought that route will take well over 4 hours.
  5. It seemed that TM brought him over to the left wing later on so that he could tell him what to do, as he looked a bit lost.
  6. Nobody near me in the Blackburn end seemed particularly impressed with him yesterday, I certainly wasn't.
  7. For me there would be no choice never mind a tough one. COYB
  8. I would believe a comment from someone at the game over TV on a non league fixture.
  9. More like Sue-Helen
  10. Personally I don't think he did well. To me he showed poor control, unable to complete a pass, a lack of an initial turn of speed, slow to cover back. But for all this , we have to persevere with him and give him a chance. That is Rovers position at the moment, I just hope that it works. Looking on a positive note, at least he is being given a chance in a relatively successful side. I would be worried if we where really struggling and where relying on him.
  11. First game I am going to miss this season as I cannot get time off work. What a ridiculous mid-week fixture.
  12. The Leeds number 14 was awesome
  13. Why the hatred for the Sun?
  14. I think that is meant to be a line-up, in general, not specific to Saturday.
  15. If you are offside you are penalised irrespective of, if you are interfering with play or not.
  16. No, but he was one of the worst tacklers ever. Dangerous because he didn't have a clue how to tackle.
  17. Tony Mowbray's magic, he wears a magic hat. And when he saw the championship, he said where having that. We used to shout for Shearer and Hendry at the back. Now we shout for Mulgrew, and super Bradley Dack.
  18. For the older ones, it is very reminiscent of when Tony Field was here. Picked up reasonably cheap, proved he had fabulous skill, regular goal-scorer, fans cult hero. left for (at the time) a much bigger club. And yet we survived and prospered. Whatever happens it will not be the end of the world.
  19. This maybe off the mark, but I remember us loaning out Simon Garner to Halifax because it seemed like he couldn't score. Give him time.
  20. To tell you the truth I think we have had a great start to the season.
  21. If we are no good at taking and converting conventional corners, I would suggest we use short corners and try to commit defenders into a position where they are not happy. A few times yesterday from open play promising positions where gained by committing and beating defenders wide on their goal-line. Dack in particular with his quick feet is very good at this.
  22. Well for me the way the statement was phrased, I am positive it was negative.
  23. So what ! We also won this week-end. celebrate when given the opportunity.
  24. Some times a floated corner dropping from high at the near post is actually hard to defend as the defender has to generate all the power to get the ball away to a safe distance or position. A good corner is one you score off.
  25. You cannot expect to hold a lead for 1 minute, but you can organise to protect your goal for as long as is required. It all depends on how the manager thinks this is best achieved, with what he has got available.
