The 1st half was as poor as you could expect with that formation, even worse with Dunn coming off.

We wanted a reaction after Fulham, and this is what we get.

With Capello at Ewood I'm gutted Dunn's gone off, However Robbo's having a good half and hopefully he can force his way into the next squad!!!

He's having a good game Robbo, but he is a million miles away from England quality. Just look at the Essien(was it Essien?) goal against Chelsea from 45 yards and the Fulham first goal and that is why he shouldn't be picked. Imagine that kind of performance in a Final or Semi Final? Then again David James messes up more often and gets picked, so maybe he'll get in!! Thinking about it, all the English keepers are rubbish a lot of the time!

Capello isnt at the game.

Roberts has been anonymous since he came on.

With the service out there, Im not surprised. Only Diouf is even looking to create anything close to a chance for his team mates.

Can't see where the goals are going to come from without Dunny on the pitch, hopefully its nothing really serious otherwise we are in trouble. Last thing we need is our only creative player in the whole squad missing for some time when you have some winnable fixtures coming up.

Some would say we deserve everything we get when you sell your most creative player and fail to replace him.

Benni Mac on for Di Santo please, fair enough when we go with one up top but now we have two we HAVE to go with Benni and Roberts. Didn't sound too good, only positive is we aren't losing. The three points are there for the taking if we can step it up though!

It's vital we do something to win this now. If we win, we will have pulled away from the pack by a fair distance and move into the top half, if results stay as they are.

Really poor first half.

Creativity has now gone, but at least we are now playing 442.

Andrews is awful.

Stoke will win 1-0.

Can not see us breaking them down.

Not looking good at half time.

We have moved ahead of the dingles during the first half....

Now that is good news - just need to win this afternoon to go further ahead. On a different subject reported this morning in the LET rovers made a 6 million loss because of last seasons low table finish. 14 million in debt and expect that to go to 20million. But the club now no need to be a selling club and should be able to trade better.

Completely agree. Imagine if someone had come on here a year or so ago and said by December 2009 Dunn would be our only decent attacker and only creative player? 2 shots against Stoke at home. Unless something amazing happens in January we are in for a very very dull and possibly disasterous season. I think they'd struggling selling seasons tickets at £50 each at this rate.

McCarthy won't be coming on because he showed what he's really all about against Fulham during the week - slow, lazy and not at all interested.

Our only hope for a decent has just left the pitch and god knows when he'll return :(

Keith is the stand out player in midfield today :blink:

I have no doubt we'll see an even poorer player replacing Di Santo in the final 20 minutes in the form of Kalinic.

Oh and Stoke are far from relegation candidates, they're playing some good stuff this season. I'd take a goaless draw right about now, we need to stop trying to score from crosses against the best aerial side in the league!

We ARE doomed. Surely our owners are rich and care enough to get rid of any debt then sell us for 1 Turkish Dollar? Though that would be a rip off for ant buyer!?

Andrews injured and off for Grella who is on now.

One sub left to bring on. This is depressing.

Obviously the management think a draw is a good result? Bringing on someone as unattacking as Grella, after losing our only attacking threat in Dunn shows that?!
