This midfield is so disjointed - everyone wants to sit.

Good job they haven't brought their best midfielders

If I remember rightly, "Sir" Roger Jones was the keeper that day as well! My all time favourite keeper along with big Brad

I think you might well be correct. When thinking about that great team, my first reaction had been he must have come after that.

Anybody had any luck with ESPN? can get all other games to work except Rovers

[SoldierMo]

But davenport needs a rest by looks of it...genuis Tm

[andyh]

No luck with ESPN+ for me

 

[Tom]

Lucky to be level, awful defending but worse finishing 

[bluebruce]

Ffs even Doncaster, sans Whiteman, can sit back and hit us on the break and create better chances than us from it.

[SoldierMo]

Bell is awful

Well obviously we'd be 3-0 down already if Whiteman was playing.

How's his move to Real Madrid going btw? Just haggling on the goal bonus now, right?

That was on Johnson for me, far too easy 

[Mercer]

Terrible stuff this.

They are in a bidding war with Preston

You said the midfield was disjointed,  not me mate...chill your beans 

[Bigdoggsteel]

Travis non existent in the middle 

[Bigdoggsteel]

I forgot how shite Bell is

Serious lack of a focal point In the number 9 position , as usual 

 

[Clitheroe]

Does Trybull ever look to get the ball forward? Just there he picks it up with space in front of him.. first thought is to turn and look back. 

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Glad it's free to watch.

[Tom]

2 hospital balls to Travis already from Buckley and Brereton, we could really do with him not getting an injury 

[Bigdoggsteel]

How was Bell offside there? He had so space. So much like 

[Bigdoggsteel]

Up the funking tempo lads 

[Gogger]

Has Dack as a striker ever worked for us? As I recall TM did it in league 1 quite a few times. Turgid stuff. How we can have play a game with 6 CM is beyond me. Dack, Travis, Downing and Trybull are coming deep to get the ball.

[davulsukur]

"I've  spoken to the owners and they are going to help us out by giving Ben Gladwin a contract extension whilst he's out injured.

We'll continue to play on what appears to be the Asda car park as a result though"

[Tom]

Nice by Dolan, Brereton squaring to nobody was interesting
