  1. Half of Tomasson's(only 6) signings can hardly get a kick in one of the youngest teams in the division, which could go top tomorrow after 16 games in. The evidence is there, whether you accept it is up to you. Thankfully the "he's left us in the brown stuff" comments have turned out to be unfounded, and have actually subsided. I sometimes think there would be more fans happier if we were in a relegation battle, rather than threatening the top spot.
  2. I'll clap him, then hope we pick up another 3 points. He was right man at the right time for Rovers, and left us in good shape. Could be the night for Szmodics to cement his place.
  3. Burnley's game in hand is against Norwich so they can't both win. I was just making the point that we haven't exactly pulled up any trees and we're a point off top. It's probably the weakest championship for a good while.
  4. It's definitely doable, saying earlier that we're a point off top and we haven't even begun to click and play well.
  5. We're a work in progress, but it's much easier to do that work at the top end. Keep waiting for us to click,it seems mad saying that when we're a point off top. If we could hit any kind of consistency, we'd be a force to be reckoned with in this league.
  6. Youngsters pretending that they've invented the game. Expected bollox.
  7. On the way there, radio Lancs said it's our best start for 10 seasons, and that is the conundrum. You don't fluke 7 wins out of 14, there's something there, it just needs to be shown more frequently.
  8. I'm pretty sure Ayala knows himself if he needs a night off, Tomasson will let him be the judge.
  9. You'd imagine that we would be better set up to play away from home, on the break like the 2nd half yesterday.
  10. I can see you getting half top tier and half bottom. Can't imagine you'll get the full end if it's still open to make your own way there.
  11. Nice win, some excellent performances, so nice to see Pickering back to his best, you can tell he really feels it. Might be a few tales coming out of the dressing room, Dack sulked off down the tunnel and it looked very much like Tomasson went after him.
  12. It will go one of two ways, either results will drop off because of the poor performances, or performances will improve in line with carrying on picking up points. Let's hope it's the latter starting tomorrow.
  13. It is hard to watch, I'm sure they're colour blind at times. Just pass to one of ours, how hard can it be? It's same again Saturday, we need a win to maintain the breathing space, giving Tomasson time to get over his plan to the players, whatever it is. It would be nice if it came to fruition sooner rather than later.
  14. I'd argue we played our best football at Blackpool and should have been out of sight, the Swansea win was a win well executed. It's a strange situation, we don't look cohesive by any stretch, yet a really poor team doesn't fluke 6 out of 12. I'm just waiting for us to click, but we don't, yet we keep winning every other game. There's something there, but I just don't know what it is. Hope this helps 😅
  15. The ref didn't even react to the injury at first, he just blew far too early. He missed a clear pen on Gallagher by Kipre and another possible one by Ng, again on Gally.
  16. Got the feeling that we might just click into gear on Tuesday, and it seems strange saying it from our position in the table, looking at it, you'd think we already had. I don't really like predicting Rovers to win, but I can just imagine us having too much for them on the break, 0-2.
  17. Looks like the love in for Tomasson has all but disappeared, it didn't take long. Doesn't sound like there are many who still want him to read them a bed time story. The bloke's been here 2 minutes, he needs time to do whatever he feels he needs to do. It's just as well we're 6th in the table(joint 4th), we've already had boos at half time yesterday. I can only imagine the stick if we were near the bottom. We won playing badly and moved joint 4th in the table, it's a nice message for him to pass on to the players. Let's hope for a better performance but the same result on Tuesday.
  18. Important 3 points that, allows Tomasson the breathing space to do whatever it is he wants to do,without looking over his shoulder at the table. I don't know where the idea comes from that he has a weak squad to choose from, when his own signings can't get a game, and the under 21's beat United 6-1. To me, we're more suited to playing away, on the break, than trying to break down a packed defence at home. A poor performance today, but a cracking, important 3 points, the knack now is to follow it up with at least a point against Cardiff.
  19. The back 5/6 picks itself, depending on whether Tomasson goes with a back 4 or 5. Hedges, Travis and Brereton play, meaning there will be a lot of players left unhappy at not making the team. You're doing well if you make the bench on Saturday.. We need 3 points, just to keep the scoreboard ticking over nicely, allowing Tomasson the breathing space to do what he wants without the table putting any undue pressure on.
  20. George Courtney gave us the penalty at Wembley cos of the stick he got walking out at Bradford.
  21. That's actually the second definition given,the first one is kill, destroy or remove a large proportion of,i did check before I quoted Atko. I'm sure he was going with the first one,unless he was deliberately meaning to be outrageous.
  22. I think we're in a good place, a good platform from which Tomasson can work from and hopefully improve. I just never subscribed to the theory that the squad he inherited was as weak as was made out. Yes we lost the fun boy 3,and the loan players, but the rest were just fluff used to try to prove a point. Any new manager would want at least half a dozen of his own players anyway, whether he thinks they're fit or good enough to displace the players already here is up to him.
  23. I'm not saying he didn't have reasons for leaving them out Gav. As I say, I'm not for one second having a go at Tomasson, I'm quite happy at the moment. My argument is that a manager with a supposedly decimated squad does not have the luxury of willingly leaving out the mentioned players, whilst putting in that really good performance against Watford with the same starting 11. It's an excuse which is trotted out every time we have a stinker, but isn't mentioned when we outplay Watford. That's the point I'm making, and I think the evidence backs it up.
