Mattyblue Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 I’m really wracking my brain now but didn’t he (or another Lofthouse) used to sell old programmes standing next to the car park on Kidder Street (flattened car showroom) on a match day?
philipl Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 No reason to be apprehensive before any game between now and end of the season. Shrewsbury showed once again we can beat anyone and we have significantly strengthened in this window with players who can really hurt the opposition. We can beat ourselves for sure, but the opposition need to be helped. Sticking with my 4-2 forecast.
neophox Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 16 games unbeaten.. hope it will be 17 games after this!

Dont the need the game turning into an ugly slug fest in dreadfull conditions The forecast doesn't look too bad on Saturday. Against Shrewsbury I was content for the first time this season with the aggression from the whole team as opposed to a few individuals. The same attitude on Saturday should see us coping with any type of game Fleetwood want to play.
joey_big_nose Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 Payne arriving makes picking the front four players even more tricky. Graham and Dack are shoo-ins, but the other two could be any of Samuel, Armstrong, Conway or Payne. It's a pretty good situation to be in. Only concern is out of those six only Conway is a proper wide player so we could get quite narrow.

Rogerb Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 Nick Haughton who has been on loan at Chorley and scored 13 goals from midfield has been recalled by Fleetwood

If we have learnt anything since Bennett has been here, it's that he is a much better player in centre midfield. Keep in with Smallwood in the middle, he had his best game in a Rovers shirt last week.

skous18 Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Is there anyone else worried that now with the players we have signed, Mowbray will start messing around with the formation and we wont be able to play the simple and good football that we are playing at the moment and do you guys think that the players are actually good enough to win us games even if we are playing shit

Then we've got Dack who the last few months has come on leaps and bounds.. We should be looking at promotion and building for the championship but we are in the hands of Venkys their cohorts and the carpet baggers so let's not get excited about signing loans or beating the mighty Shrewsbury Lets take it has it comes keep the run going there's not one side we should be wary of in this division

I think Lenihan is pivotal in Mowbrays thinking to try his three at the back/wing back system. Half of our league defeats have been when playing this way so I sincerely hope he sticks to the system which has got us into a position to challenge.

Half of our league defeats have been when playing this way so I sincerely hope he sticks to the system which has got us into a position to challenge. Personally I don’t think we’ve been TOO convincing this season (apart from Saturday, and we certainly haven’t been bad overall) to the point where I don’t welcome a few changes. I’m glad Mowbray recognises that and isn’t just blinded by our results. With the signings we’ve made and what we have learned of the squad and opposition over the opening half of the season I’m sure he can make us far more incisive, dominant and clinical. Rovers 5 Fleetwood 0
JacknOry Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 I'm going 1-3 to us. We seem to perform better away and I feel they will have a bit of a go at us as they need to get a move on if they have aspirations of the playoffs. Depending on who we play, we have some real pace that could be explosive on the counter attack. Mulgrew, Dack and Armstrong will grab the goals. We will concede another sloppy goal as we always do. Also going for Doncaster to hold the tired Shrews to 1-1 and we go second on GD.
