We can't afford to lose him you mean.

No, we won't think it's worth giving Phillips and Wharton £10 k p.w. We won't want to upset the rest of the lads and will be happy to watch another £115m worth of talent walk out of the door.

This ref doesn't like Vale.

That was actually Saturday but your overall point is a good one.

Every pass Wharton plays is in exactly the right spot and the right weight. Vale has shown up well since coming on but should have put Dack through before. Very harsh yellow. Blackpool player stood on his foot.

Or don't.

That would have been some goal. Dack - Dolan - BBD.

Have we got £4m left this window though?

Quite.....one's injured and the other two aren't as good in the position.

Agree 100% with all that. I'm not that impressed with Morton either. OK, but nothing to write home about. Can you imagine the furore there'd be if Adam Wharton was on the books of a "big" Club? Markanday on for Dolan at HT.

Much better after the goal, Wharton different class once again, needs a big contract and tying down tighter than a turkey at Christmas. The majority of stuff Dack does also oozes class, you either have quality or you dont and he has it in abundance. The extent to which he was written off on here by the know nowts trying to claim there was some sort of problem between him and the manager was frankly embarrassing. Hope we can hold onto the result and get the show back on the road.

What, sewn on the wrong way round? He's done absolutely nothing so far.

Confidence must have been rock bottom after 3 (generally miserable) losses. First and foremost need a couple of good results to build confidence levels back up again.

And THAT'S why you don't sell BBD. Sublime play from both Adam Wharton and Dack to set it up.

Need to drive Ayala up to Sunderland after tonight's match and have another last minute go at getting JPVH in.

JDT doesn't really seem to rate Markanday does he? I wonder what the player thinks of his move up here now. One minute he's going to be the big hope of giving us that bit extra to fire us into the Premier League, the next a new manager comes in and he can't even get into a (currently) struggling Championship side.

OK. Hope he makes a speedy recovery. I'd still always rather see Dack in there though.

The manager can't pick players we haven't got. If the side looks weak at all, that's down to Waggott and Broughton. Delighted to see Adam Wharton given a chance. That wouldn't have happened under Mowbray. Pickering is a very lucky boy that we don't have any viable replacement for him however. Also good to see Dack back in the side in place of Szmodics. Looks like "the Dack situation" was a storm in a teacup". Did at least think Ayala would make it through to some point in September. What a waste of a wage he is. Don't think Dolan deserves the stick he gets on here. However he might struggle up top and if this is JDT's preferred formation maybe it's an indication Hirst will be a regular starter when available and not merely back up.

Hopefully.

To balance that up, most of us wrote Gallagher off before he arrived and he is still fuckin useless So you are entitled to have an opinion on a player and sometimes it is wrong and sometimes it is right

Ok, no goals in 4 starts, and brought on on 26 other occasions to try and influence the game and failed. Why are people trying to defend the indefensible? Everyone seemed to be dead against the signing a few days ago, now because an option to purchase at a completely unrealistic price appears to be a possibility, most people's views seem to have changed. Is it sheer desperation due to no other further incomings so close to the end of the window?

Of course. But he hasn't. More to the point, he hasn't even scored a goal at Championship level so on the face of it, the chances of that happening are exceedingly slim. Wouldn't it be far easier to just spend £5m on someone with a track record at this level?

Like that's likely to happen.

And Reg Varney.

Yes - but we won't be getting a bargain.
