Johnson who turns like a tank and Travis who won’t be match fit. Do well to get a point here. Just shows how awful our squad depth is. To be fair, our best results have come from having 7 defensive players. Having said that, we’re getting beaten tonight. I’m making my peace with it now. A point will be a bonus. I hate this sport.

Butty Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 Be an unbelievable result if we win tonight because Jesus that lineup is poor. 50 quid on Boro at 7/4 I did yesterday is sounding even better now. Would love nothing more than my bet to lose though! Be one of the biggest results we’ve had in years if that lineup can pull off a win tonight. Quote
BigBar Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 Rothwell for me is the most important player in our team. Makes it all happen. Sick that he isn't involved. 1 Quote
riverholmes Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 (edited) Bradley Johnson could do a job in a defensive role tonight, just about, I think, but an issue I've noticed with him (and the management) is that he gallops forward to support attacks. I would hope that he stays put and shields, rather than get caught out upfield. Edun is going to need the support, I feel. Edited January 24, 2022 by riverholmes Quote

He’s stuck in the mud, he moves so slow I don’t think he can physically gallop mate 😂 Quote
Tyrone Shoelaces Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 (edited) We’ll see how we’re fixed for team spirit tonight. It’s games like this that shows what’s beating under the badge. Win, lose or draw I expect us to give it our best shot. Edited January 24, 2022 by Tyrone Shoelaces 3 Quote
RevidgeBlue Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 (edited) Dreadfully negative line up. Playing for a point. If he was going like that, I'd have gone Davenport alongside Travis and Butterworth behind Khedra. Edit: Chapman should also be in the squad. Mowbray cutting off his nose to spite his face. Edited January 24, 2022 by RevidgeBlue Quote
Devon Rover Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 A couple of hours ago I was looking forward to this as a tough test that we might just about come through and possibly get 3 points. Johnson in for Rothwell is just one blow too many and I'd be happy with a point now. Line up looks really poor, as does the squad depth. Quote

Injured? Without him I've downgraded us from a 1-1 draw to a 1-0 defeat On current form and with a weakened team I'd be amazed if we won this Quote
West Yorks Rover Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 Best we can hope for is Boro get a Red card early doors. Quote
davulsukur Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 Team sheet certainly highlights the poor squad depth. We lose a couple of players and their replacements arent up to scratch. Probably the thing that will stop us getting promoted in the end I'd wager. 2 Quote

rigger Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 I still think we will win this. It's a shame about Rothwell, but we may have to get used to not having him. Quote
BigBar Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 For all the Buckley fans, I have been in a few debates about him on here this season but I will say he has improved in my eyes so I'm not setting him up for a big fail here but some have him up there with Rothwell and BBD. Tonight is your night son, if there was ever a time to perform its tonight because someone needs to step up. 1 Quote

I’m no Mowbray defender but realistically he wasn’t going to do either was he? And Chapman wouldn’t have done zilch. Simply too many injuries. Edited January 24, 2022 by Gavlar Somerset Rover! Quote
USABlue Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 What you are seeing here is the evaporation if our promotion dreams. I know we will have players out but Mowbary is clueless on how to fill the gaps left by missing first teamers. Fancy an easy Boro win tonight. Quote
West Yorks Rover Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 What size of crowd are they expecting tonight ? Quote
