That's true if we didn't have seven games in Feb....

TM was asked this by LT, worth looking up his answer.

Looks like good business today.

A deserved win IMHO. Not a great performance, but we kept going forward and grabbed the goal.

A reasonable first half, just need to get on the end of a decent move.

The lad made a mistake that was a penalty and probably a red card. These refereeing mistakes happen routinely and generally even themselves out. Boro still had 80 minutes to beat, but didn't. Warnock is an arse of the highest order, maybe the worst in football, and behaved disgustingly. Can we agree that these are the facts?

As bad as it's been until the goal. After it, we never looked like conceding. Getting Buckley off, and getting some shape and strength to the team (and Dack) showed up how bad a decision bringing on young John was. Born were crap BTW.

Poor again, although Boro are no great shakes. We look like we are playing a handful of kids across the middle of pitch. No pattern, few chances and inviting a dead-ball goal.

Why is there much abuse aimed at TM? Can't we have a discussion without using this disrespectful language?

I aim to please Matty.

Again, that's why used that term.

Not sure, which is why I used this term.

Then it will be shit.

Well I think it helps when you have eleven fit players on the pitch and a central midfielder who can pass the ball forward. Somehow TM got a combination of players on the pitch that undid Stoke and should have gone on to win. That said I think it's at the stage where the decision-makers might be asking TM how he sees us progressing this season.

Very poor. Central midfield is key and we are too deep and ponderous - Travis looks very poor and needs some time in the 23s to get fit. Elliot is also struggling and Rothwell looks out-of-sorts. The only good news has been the new lad and a passable half from Douglas. Have to say against their astute manager, this game looks done and dusted.

What a stupid thing to say.

The thing about Trybull is that he's not physical enough to proect the back four, or creative enough to get the ball into the right areas of the pitch quickly - so far anyway. he may perform better in a different system.

Not sure why losing our top scorer and this season's best player makes any sense at all.

From LT Barry Douglas is on a season-long loan from Leeds United, with the recall clause within his deal understood to have now passed So, for once, you are right.

Sounds very positive, and I have read that Douglas can be sent back.

Very good piece by Sharpe. https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/19000155.verdict-rovers-now-underperforming-well-underachieving/

I was. In 1963.

I wonder what the MB would be like after the Trelleborg defeat.

I think you know.

Plenty of chances to win it.
