Dack or Hirst?

Notice how Dack wasn’t anywhere near the box when it was taken as well? Probably walked off knowing it wasn’t going In

How’s Dack not getting a run. Only player who was in right place today. One his touch let him down and other he scored but ref blew just before. Run of games and sharpness is what he needs. Disgrace that he’s not getting the chance. No one else seems to get in those positions. Right place, right time. Criminal

Surely hedges or Dack for the pen. Not Hurst when he’s hardly played ffs

Knew as soon as it said keeper saved 0 from 10 saves that he was gonna save this. Garbage

I get that but given his quality on the ball with passing and footballing brain, I’d have thought he’d be good enough as a 10. Especially the games where we couldn’t string 2 passes together. Also he does press and close down as much as I’ve seen from anyone so that theory is rubbish

Wonder what the crack is with Dack. Thought he was really good against Blackpool and thought he’d be a starter after that

I was sat Row 9 of jack walker lower by away dugout and I didn’t see it but I heard him hit Travis. Shocking

Also got to say Dack is putting in so many hard yards off the ball. Was leading the press and telling Dolan to press when he wasn’t.

Watched him in an u23 game back in Jan and he stood out then. Didn’t realise he’d make the step up so well so quick tho

Just got back, brilliant tonight. Carter and Hyam were brilliant. Looked like they’ve been playing together for a long time. A.Wharton, where do I start? What a talent he is! so calm on the ball, positions himself well and made some brilliant tackles. Get him a long term contract. Thought everyone one else was good. Hedges was good. Vale looked Sharpe and Pickering had a good game. Was getting forward and stop some crosses. Really good response from last couple weeks 👏👏

This happened to me and my friend. We have to call up and they said pick up at Bloomfield tonight

Especially given he was on already on a yellow as well.

Tell you what we could really do with someone as a free kick taker. When we get a free kick in a decent position (like we did 3/4 times yesterday) we’ve got no-one who you’d think has a chance of scoring

Not what we needed

This is a must win game simply because my father in law to be is a die hard Stokie and I’ll never hear the end of it if they beat us at Ewood again 🙄 Apparently Delap is a bit of a beast so hopefully we can contain him and Gayle

I think so, think he’s proven his worth in these two cup games

On DAB radio

Wonder if Dacks coming off because he will start Saturday.

Sounds like Philips and BBD coming on

Listening on bbc Lancashire (tunes in 2nd half) Commentary has not made Edun sound good so far

And it clearly wasn’t working going forward. Stevie Wonder could see that. So yeah yeah JDT has to deal with what he’s got but he had players he could have put on earlier for me. I think Morton has been good too and don’t understand why he’s not played more. I really like Buckley but he’s not looked right last two guys. Why not rotate and put Dack and Morton in and rest a couple others seeing as we had some many games in a short space of time. Doesn’t make sense to me when we’ve seen what we’ve seen for a game and a half

Yeah but tell me that any of those players have worked today and tell me why it’s not worth having a punt with someone who’s clinical in front of goal and can keep hold of the ball? All very well saying JDT has this and that but no one has done anything to warrant their place in the team today I’m afraid. At 1-0 why not add him? I can understand in the first three games where we are leading but today after the Reading game was so important to get the next goal

Frustrating because I don’t see Dack as being a poor player now. And look how we played today and Wednesday. No press so no idea how Dack isn’t playing. He’s quality on the ball and he’s a natural goal scorer. Doesn’t need pace to be doing a good job. At least he can hold on the the ******* ball

Gutted! Why did we play him against Hartlepool? Don’t think that was necessary
