Information "management"?

I’d guess at Pickering for pens

for people who keep saying we didn't an attacker in January we actually signed 2 players for those roles in Hedges from Aberdeen and 500k signing from Spurs in Markanday. Sadly Markanday got injured on his debut otherwise he would have been an good option for us. I look forward to seeing him next season in Rovers shirt 

How many goals have those players scored between them? 33, which are all from Hedges over 10 years of playing professionally. Only 3 scored in the Championship (in 23 games). Maybe an unfair assessment of Markandays attributes as he's a young lad and it's unknown whether he would have contributed in the goals dept. However, he was injured and assessed with plenty of time left in the transfer window to know we needed someone to contribute goals. The fact is without Brereton's goals we are going to struggle, and there's been a fair amount of warning.

I go Buckley

[Mattyblue]

Buckley?!

Love to hear your rationale on that with his recent form from close range…

Do you want to see the penalties go flying into the stands.

LOL. It’d barely trickle to the goal line.

[Darrenbot]

It's a bad thing when nobody in the squad stands out to take over the pens with BBD out,maybe someone can standout in training.

Buckley is not very good with just the keeper to beat.

That’s seven matches - 50% of our remaining games. As I say, an absolute balls up not bringing in some more firepower in Jan.

Its just guess who I think would take them. 

But we don't have natural penalty taker in the 11. maybe Rothwell or Khadra might be a penalty taker. 

[Tom]

I’d imagine it would be Rothwell, I also expect he’d miss

Before Buckley has a go for sure.

[Nuttall is lost]

Are Brereton Diaz and Bradley Dack the same person?  Has anyone seen them in a room together?  They are identical twins.

 

We could confuse the opposition by switching up their jerseys.

Alarm bells continue to go off in Chile as the image of BBD on crutches & a boot are causing panic.  Ben has been deemed "irreplaceable" on the Chilean squad.  The country's slim chances of qualifying look even bleaker if BBD will be out until April or beyond, as he will miss conmebol's last 2 qualifying games next month.

How do you know we don’t have a natural penalty taker? None of us do really. But Buckley would be the last person I would have put forward mate to be honest.

I don't remember seeing most of our current squad ever take penalties in their career

How could anyone else in the squad ‘stand out’ to take pens when Arma and Ben have taken all of them for the past 2+ seasons. Seems a strange thing to be negative about. I’m sure most of them are perfectly capable of taking a decent penalty.

Most of them are relatively young lads mate and as I just posted in reply to someone else, Arma and Ben have taken all of our pens for 2+ seasons now.
