Probably. It seems they were hell bent on not paying compensation for anyone fortunately. I think (stand to be corrected) everyone they interviewed was out of work. They even spoke to Mowbray apparently.

Probably moving from the first to the second at this point. Wish WBA would get a move on and confirm their managerial appointment.

Sorry didn't see your post.

Don't worry. "THE BIG SIGNINGS ARE COMING!" (I've no idea why I'm reminded of Mowbray's "defenders" at this point.)

Oh dear ..... Eddie won't be happy! Lol. I liked his comments about the tradition and importance of the FA Cup.

Kevin Gallagher reckoned he should have thrown his cap on the one he palmed away and caught it. Not that Pears is any better in that respect mind.

No, you were right 1st time.

Just picking a tie we should in theory get through. If a team lower ranked than Wycombe get through, I'll take that instead.

Great result! Made up with that. Well done to John Eustace for putting out a reasonably strong side and not bowing to the 11 changes brigade. Wycombe at home in round 4 please!

Oh give over.

Thank goodness for that.....

What's Weimann done there? Missed an open goal from 2 yards out according to the commentators.........

Loan of a lad who was relegated last season and now cant get in a League 1 side and a deal until the and of the season for a 33 year old who's had his contract cancelled by the side bottom of the table. Waggott will be delighted to see the amount of positive and neutral reaction to these two fairly dire signings. Proves the Club can sign more or less anyone and get away with it. Might even get away with signing no-one else if he chucks in the obligatory "January is a notoriously difficult window to do business in - we tried our best but it wasn't to be" after the window has finished.

I'm guessing you're NOT saying he would have scored?

Can only imagine the furore had Pears made a pass like Toth seemingly made. From the sounds of the Radio commentary I feel sorry for those that made the journey up in tricky conditions.

I went on BBC live scores and there's a link on there to live commentary on Radio Lancs. It'll be that and Liverpool v Accy with the sound turned down for me watching Tyler Morton struggle to make an impression. Who the hell in the US would want to watch Boro v Rovers in the Cup?

Whatever you think of them, that's why we've signed the cover.

You could hurt yourself slipping in the shower at home or be involved in a car accident on the way to work or get injured in the very next League game. You can't operate on the assumption the worst case scenario might happen.

It's a maximum of six games between now and May and that's if we win the entire thing! Makes no difference whatsoever in the general scheme of things.

Waste of a wage if he isn't playing and/or isn't deemed to be up to Championship level now

No. That's why I said it.

Is that solely for overseas consumption? Not on our Virgin package and I thought we had virtually everything.

Quite pleased with the reasonably starting line up. Nowt much on the bench though.

Can't decide whether you've missed the sarcasm or not...........

It's not a free hit - we need to win a bloody game!
