That would be almost season ticket being handed back time.

The removal of the tickets happened a while back. Quite unbelievable as it isn't a move that saves the Club a penny in a stadium that is less than one third full.

God help them. As for us , we're going to have to hope that something fairly dramatic happens over the next 27 and a bit hours, 12 out, no Armstrong replacement and only 2 young loanees with barely any senior experience in, plus Pickering who was signed in January. Oops..... edit thirty nine hours.

The commentators were insinuating on Sky last night that towels were allowed if both sides were allowed to use them but this posed questions regarding Covid so WBA had offered to provide two sets, one for each side. Personally I think the EFL has to provide clear guidance on this and that the use of towels if it is to be allowed at all should only be entirely at the discretion of and with the agreement of the home side. If they say no, then no towels and use thereof or using an item of supporters clothing as happened last night should result in a yellow card each time.

For me we need a guaranteed starter, a striker that can chip in with an absolute minimum of half Armstrong's goals. A "Rhodes type" would be ideal if he can do that. We absolutely do not need either "a big lump" or a speedboat that can't find the back of the net. Goalscorers are in short demand but that's why Mowbray and his team are paid the big bucks, to unearth the players we need. They're not paid to say "we tried our best but couldn't get anyone in". Armstrong shouldn't have been sold without a ready made replacement lined up and ready to come in. In much the same way as Raya shouldn't have been sold without a decent replacement being sourced first either.

Nor can we ignore the fact that Mowbray spent£12m on them and they've yet to really deliver.

Along with BDS.

??? You're reinforcing his point.

Don't fall for Mowbray's clap trap chaddy. Other Clubs don't seem to find the process virtually impossible like we claim to.

He admitted he'd sell some of our players for half what he values them at!!!! Tantamount to saying "Everything must go, come and grab yourself a bargain." Thankfully he's left it a bit late in the window and hopefully he won't be around to do any more damage beyond the end of the season at worst.

Have to hope the "one other" is pretty sensational.

It's never we "will" do X Y or Z with Mowbray. Always "hoping to" etc etc. And why on earth would he publicly admit he 'd sell some of our players for half of what he thinks they're worth? Out of all the ludicrous comments he's made in recent. months that particular one has to be the worst and most damaging.

Everyone's taking the term "clown" a bit too literally, it's a throwaway comment intended to describe two players completely out of their depth rather than being an accurate description of their personal characteristics.

Shouldn't we give priority to our OWN young men trying to make their way in the game?

Still waiting for you to clarify what you're talking about.

Bloody hell. Edit: Not fit to lace Nyambe's boots and even worse at LB. Might be a bit better further forward but we haven't seen much of him there at senior level yet.

Saw in today's game everything that is wrong with the policy of bringing in youngsters from Prem League Clubs. Our own playersike Buckley and Dolan will miss out on vital experience and game time at the expense of those two clowns we've paid money to bring in from Liverpool and Leeds. Meanwhile you also have to ask what Park's role at the Club is, does he not have any contacts of his own, or hidden gems bookmarked after a lifetime in the game which would prevent us from having to go down our normal route of simply picking whatever crumbs are left off the Premier League loan table at the end of the window?

Hasn't started yet, but you do wonder how we'd react to a couple of adverse results.

I think JRC looked really ordinary (at best) pre injury. Are we allowed to say that.

What, so he can teach the squad how to go out on the lash and keep themselves generally unfit?

Saw most of the game, very happy with a point as we were over-run for large parts of it. The lad Jones on the left for Boro looks a special talent. The two loanees Clarkson and Poveda were terrible, completely anonymous. Buckley and Dolan did well when they came on. Gallagher decent for once, thought Brereton was very poor indeed today. Carter was slightly unlucky to be sent off, another ref might have let his boot in the face go as it was clearly accidental and not as bad as the one from Branthwaite at the same ground last year, but you couldn't really complain about it being a second yellow. He needed to be more careful being already on a card. I'm no fan of Morsy and that's an understatement, think he's a thug, but in this particular instance, thought he was even more unlucky than Carter as it was more a case of Magloire running into him. The two red cards took the steam out of Boro's dominance and it was fairly thrilling end to end stuff for the last few mins. Good point but at the risk of stating the bleeding obvious we have major problems.

Yes, but I presume they will have done good business apart from that, it won't be the cornerstone of their business. Plus as others have said, likely to be a more experienced player.

I would say that's down to the incompetence of the people trying to get the deals done as opposed to the money only recently becoming available. We agreed a fee for Obafemi apparently so it must have been agreed the money was available at that point. What the **** is this bloke Park playing at? We should have had an Armstrong replacement done and dusted within 2-3 days of him leaving. Once Obafemi started stringing us along we should have had reliable back up options.

Also just seen on the LT website one person has posted they'd heard there was an Italian striker coming in. You couldn't make it up. J*B caught a whopper there.

So no doubt you'll be gushing in your praise for the owners being willing to release funds for a striker Gav..........
