Beyond hilarious that Boro paid £11m for Rhodes without realising he cannot play alone up top.

Maybe they never bothered having him watched and just went off the goal scoring stats in the papers.

[G Somerset Rover]

I think his Uncle may have had a little something to do with this chaps.

[Husky]

I take it Rhodes ran the defenders ragged and that allowed Nugent to come on and get the winner?

[Neal]

Rhodes looked awful but hey... He looked like that the majority of the time for us anyway so no surprise.

[ABBEY]

Another cracking game for him - still on as many yellows as goals 10 games in, the one he did get credited with was an oggy as well.

We don't look dead certain to get that £2m at the moment it looks like Burnley will come first and maybe second as well such is the pitiful showing of the rest of them

Aye but not as many reds and blanks in his last 38 like brown .

Even his mum wouldn't say he ran defenders ragged. Lulled them into a false sense of security - yes.

[Blue blood]

Not sure why people are delighting in Rhodes not doing well.

1 we need the 2 mill promotion bonus, an in form Rhodes helps that appear.

2 it doesn't negate his scoring record - an impressive record - with us.

3 he didn't sulk, run down his contract or stay for 1 season. Not sure what people can hold a grudge against him for. Given Gestede sulked loads and was here a much shorter time there's far less delight in his position with Villa despite him treating us worse.

Pretty petty Imo, trying to justify people not rating Rhodes. But given what he did for us and how he conducted himself by and large it's a poor do to revel in his struggles.

I know the season has trailed off but come on, we've better things to focus on.

[K-Hod]

People are just too focussed on being proven right IMO, nothing more.

[DE.]

Perhaps we can create a "We Hate Jordan Rhodes" topic and let the relevant posters do what they need to do in there, every time Boro play a game and JR fails to score? Would save this topic being spammed with the same old posts about him, at least.

[K-Hod]

We can perhaps merge it with the existing Rhodes thread after each game we don't score so both sides of the argument can fight it out, as it still isn't boring....

Derby 1 Forest 0 FT

Marcus Olsson scores the winner, he'll be a hero in Derby now.

[chaddyrovers]

What boring game that Derby Forest game was. Awful!

[Doug]

Chris Taylor scores for Millwall after 2 mins!! Right level for him

[Oldgregg86]

Preston losing at qpr

[Neal]

Rotherham winning.

[Doug]

Rotherham, Bristol and Fulham winning!!

[G Somerset Rover]

Rotherham winning again. Gap down to 6 points as it stands...

[Salgado Is Still A Hero]

Leon Best with the goal

[Tom]

What is Leon Best doing to us? Madness.

[chaddyrovers]

Nowt wrong with that.

[West Yorks Rover]

Bolton losing 6 nil

Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch.

I couldn't care less about being right or not. What have I got to prove ? As long as the team is doing well I couldn't be happier.

Strange that the Bolton players seemed to work their socks off during the dire times, but as soon as a little hope comes to the club they utterly capitulate. Losing 6-0 to Bristol City... puts our 3-0 loss to the MK Dons in the shade, to say the least.

Hard to believe Bolton have been in one of the top two tiers since 1993. After this season it may be a while before they have a taste of either again.
