  1. We dropping faster than the titanic.. conceded 50 goals already this season!!
  2. This season has got Coyle written all... over... it...
  3. Got to admit I really admire what Mark Robins has done / is doing at Coventry...
  4. How annoying has the lancashire evening telegraph website become having to subscribe?!
  5. How did the lad from Brighton play when he came on? Yasin?
  6. I often hear criticism of Broughton, personally I think he's done a very good job on the transfer front on the whole given the cash he has to work with.. he has brought in: Hyam - success (+ value) Sammie - success (+ value) Tronstad - success (+ value) Brittain - on the whole a success, granted last month hasn't been great (= value) Siggy - success (+ value) Loans he has brought in have also been decent... Moran / Hill Where has he failed so far... Striker, not getting one at quality required, but was that his fault given budget?? You could argue he invested well in a goalscorer with Sammie who is the top scorer in the league and a fraction of the cost of a decent striker?? Gk - again failed here, we needed an experienced guy for this position, its a high risk position and my view is this should always be an experienced man even if the quality is lower and have younger guy working through over time. Also Broughton is responsible for bringing in JDT who has generally had a hugely positive impact.. we now have an identity playing some brilliant football (granted we need to solidify) but onnthe whole we are playing some exapnsive football, he has also made great progress with some of the players who have played the best football in their career under his watch (JRC, Wharton, Garrett). Given our budget we can't afford dead certs, I think the egg has done a very very good job. I think both him and JDT with a bit of support can get us in the top 10.
  7. Quite mental there are 3 x ex Rovers keepers now playing in the prem... two of which were deemed not good enough by our fans
  8. Seems a sensible approach, but think its time to sell Markanday, he's not good enough for this level.
  9. Our subs ALWAYS make us worse. I said it after the Hull game we need to play with 2 x CDMs.. Tronstad and Travis... for now until we can get back some resilience...
  10. I think for the foreseeable future we need 2 proper cdm's.. I would set up as follows... Brittain Carter Hill Pickering Travis Tronstad Adam Sammy Siggy Telalovic
  11. Just a thought... I wonder if in this league with a smallish squad it's inevitable to go on a death spiral... given the competition and run, proximity of games??
  12. Worse half of the season so far. Moran - shocking he's still in this team. Siggy - don't rate him tbh Our RB abd GK deserve a good slap for their defending for the goal!
  13. Agreed, really surprised he's in ahead of Garratt
  14. Ali Al Hamadi looks decent (according to YouTube 😊)
  15. Agree with this team, S Wharton sadly still 4th best after, Hill, Carter and Hyam. Only amendment I would make to the above is to swap Garrett for Moran, Moran has been on a decline for a while now.
  16. Makes sense, shown glimpses of class... if he gets consistent over the next 9 months or so we will sign him on a longer deal I'm sure
  17. I've heard Cole from Barnsley is someone we have looked at... anyone seen anything of him.
  18. Are there any strikers in the lower leagues that we might be interested in?
  19. Playing out from the back, drawing the opposition in, is a key part to how we play. We have improved massively in our ability of doing so since this manager came in, if we want it to improve further, we are gonna need a higher standard of player which we not able to afford. This style isn't going anywhere with this manager, occasionally will get caught out and although not good for the ticker, overall I am loving the style of football.. given everything combined.
  20. I would be DEVASTATED if Jdt goes fo another championship club... I'll only accept him leaving if he goes to the Prem or a top club in another league.
  21. Sorry possibly unpopular opinion, but think your missing out on some of the best football and games in years... the club is what it is, if you take everything away, we are a championship club and have been just shy of the play offs for the last 3yrs.. Personally would say don't let the bitterness of Venkys and thoughts on 'how things used to be' waste available days and times of your life.. just let it go if you can.. Sorry of this sounds condescending its not intended that way
