Absolutely. A very contented punter!

Graham was once very mobile - as you get older, or injuries take their toll, you have to change your game. Big Al did the lot until his final years.

Graham is nearing the end of his career. As for Brereton, yes, you have to play to a player's strengths but you don't sign players who don't match your vision about style of play!

If an employer pays a small fortune for your services then as an employee you should feel some pressure to deliver !

Good lad. Buy you a pint then?

Like playing the stock market, you don't put all your heads in one basket!

Rest assured James I win significantly more than I lose with my betting hobby!!!

Will be at the Wigan, Middlesbrough and Leeds away games - all dusted and sorted. Will you be there?

Didn't Brereton only get brought on in desperation when we were a goal down? 26 shots at goal, 66% possession, wtf were we doing then if we couldn't score? Only goals count!!! No I feckin didn't attend today as I simply didn't fancy it. That OK? My sons attended and I trust their judgement implicitly - texted at half time and said 'simply cr@p'. If Brereton had started both games, we might have had SIX POINTS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This league is wide open. Any half decent side with a half decent manager would go very close. Momentum and confidence so important. It's Boro and one other for me with Villa as very strong dark horses. Smith is a shrewd operator - watch them go after today.

Your recent posts have been interesting to say the least! Are you Rovers' secret PR man!?

Like the look of Rothwell. To me, the lad has an obvious spark. He and Brereton MUST start at PNE but with this manager there's no chance of that happening.

All reminiscent of the season we went down. IMV, too negative - his changes rarely effect games positively for Rovers.

Nope. You get feelings about games. If I have a hunch, I run with it.

He spent £7million doing that - time he played the feckin lad from the start.

Shambolic result. All bets on Rovers are down but not bothered. Serious question marks against Mowbray. Our £7million striker sat rooted to the bench until last 15 minutes or so. IMV, a steady Eddie but not a manager to take us to the promised land. Glad I'm going out tonight!

Not in doubt. Go grab a beer / wine, relax and enjoy.

I'll stick with 2-1. Cometh the hour, cometh the man - come on Big Ben!

Come on Mowbray - get the £7million striker on - we need a feckin goal!

Just got in - surprised to see match isn't out of sight. Still confident - stuck a bit more on Rovers' win - now at 7/5 also stuck a fiver on 2-1 at 25/1. Sons who are at match said we are cr@p but I'm still confident we'll pull it out the hat.

Think he must also have advised Rovers on the Brereton fee!

Enough for the winnings to buy a few nice reds ! Stuck a fiver on 4-1 at 33/1.

A huge home banker this. Expect Rotherham to be mullered. Rovers even at 8/11 is a licence to print money. 'Fun' bet on this is Rovers to win 4-1 at 33/1. Hope Brereton plays centre forward and notches a hat-trick.

I am talking about being at the ground watching the match. It is only there where you can see a player's full contribution including movement (running the channels, dragging defenders out of position, tracking back), positions taken-up and general reading of the game etc etc - you don't see such aspects watching on a screen.

Over a third of the season gone, a £7million deal and no league starts. Says it all. Madness. Dack cost £750,000 not £7,000,000 - bit of a difference!
