Planning process is notoriously slow. Make that another 5 years of Mowbray

First time I've seen him. I was always told never trust a man with a beard because they're hiding behind it So no, I don't believe a word he says.

The question must be why did Rovers sign him?

West Ham knew Martin Britt was a crock, and I think Rovers did too, but we still signed him, £25,000 IIRC though I might be wrong, a fortune at the time. He'd obviously done his cruciate (a wonky knee they used to call it) which was career ending then but would be routine surgery now. Britt was a good player. I remember seeing Gilliver sitting in the Nuttall St stand injured more often than he played.

Well there it is. England batting beaten before the start. Mindset all wrong and poor techniques exposed

Two misfields in the first over. As one journalist said they can’t bat, they can’t bowl and they can’t field. Bring em home

This isn’t “entertainment” it’s a travesty of test cricket He might be out quickly but Rohit will show how to play spin

Get out to the pitch or let it come to you. Either way you’re playing it under your nose.

India to win by 10 wickets?

Bring em home. This is embarrassing

Foakes undone by his head falling away to the off so he was playing outside the line of the ball. Lbw inevitable

Leach has a better technique than most. Watches the ball all the way on to the bat and plays it under his nose. By doing that he’s also playing it late which is the hallmark of the best batsmen.

The ball wasn’t spinning though Pope should have seen it was seam up and was going to go straight on.

Archer out to another rubbish shot swiping across the line. Pitch not involved. Archer should be No 11 never seen him make any runs

Watching Pope again he hasn’t watched the ball on to the bat and played it under his nose. He’s pushed out looking for turn that wasn’t there. Poor batting and good bowling.

Match should finish today .

Pope just played down wrong line, root and stokes played around their pads, neither had anything to do with the pitch

It's so sad what's happened to Rovers in the past 10 years. The fans, the club, the town, the community didn't deserve this to happen. Jack Walker's legacy has been raped, diminished and destroyed by charlatans, chancers, spivs and crooks. Could the footballing gods for once smile on this proud and historic club for a change?

This is unsustainable now. He has to consider his position

Who's this month's Watford manager?

Watford. A nothing 4th division club when I were a lad And the commentators are in awe of them

Rothwell had a good game. Unless he's injured no reason to take him off

Watford haven't had to work hard for any of those 3 goals. Just given away

...... and another soft goal

The performance rel;ated coach will be pleased with this ... we're actually playing quite well But you can't defend like that and hope to win games
