Because this is a rearranged game from a Saturday, I don't think it will be on the red button or televised at all. Unless you are "abroad" maybe 😉

He's cheap, that's the only criteria here.

13 consecutive away defeats to promoted sides, and this will be no different. Wrexham 3 Rovers 0

I thinknas always, you would be surprised who would want this job. But, those in charge won't employ anyone decent because they dont like to be challenged.

To be honest I dont think either sre suited to a left wing back role. Better options than De Neve though I concede.

Venkys, Pasha, Gestede, Ismael etc aren't stupid. They know exactly what they are doing.

No. He said himself he had discussions with them; but that was months before he was appointed by us. Ismael never gets another gig at this level again after us because he isnt good enough.

Few good away performances and results have masked his season so far. Going into December with 4 home points from a possible 24 is completely unacceptable. Get rid.

Using Brandon Powell as back up to Hedges for the LWB role should be considered going forward. Send De Neve to Chorley.

Nobody is taking Carter at the minute.

We're at home. QPR only won once at Ewood since 1999. I'd like to think we can take the momentum from Friday into this and win 1-0 or more likely 2-1 as can't see a clean sheet any time soon.

No. I personally think you have been fooled by a few good results at the moment. Now if we're comfortably in the top half after the Charlton game on the 4th January I might come around. I have enjoyed the last few weeks bar the derby game though, but do think depth could be a killer in this next block of games until 4th January. Still fully expect us to finish in the bottom 6 or so.

Can he defend though?

They have goal line technology in this league so it was never in doubt. We beat them back in January too.

I thought after a rough 25 minutes or so we took control of the game and were much the better side. We just played football and they didnt like it, they tried to kick us off the park and intimidate and bully us and it didn't work at all, we stood up to it very well. Morishita, Montgomery, Tronstad and Hedges were superb I thought. Full of energy, determination and a bit of quality at times too. Pratt deserves a special mention though, the lad was playing against Congleton Town 2 months ago and to come into a game like that for your professional debut and not look out of place or too shakey, I thought was brilliant. Need to sort that home form out now.

Cantwell will play for us again. He's on what, 44 league appearances? I can see another 4 or 5 appearances in over the next 6 weeks before he hits the magic 50, before another mystery injury see's him out again, and then sold in Jan. In the summer I thought it was to early for anyone to really take an interest in Cantwell, I think in January though there will be suitors as he will be a bargain for anyone with any real ambition to break into that top 6 and try and get promotion.

Wouldn't take any notice of SpudBros, they are all Liverpool fans (genuinely not the usual piss taking). They have just seen an opportunity at there local club and jumped on it, now pretending that they have always been North End fans and that Liverpool are just there "prem team". They look like really decent blokes to be fair but I wouldn't take any notice of anything they have to say regarding football.

Think this is exactly right. They aren't as daft as they appear, of course they could see it and knew how light we are at centre half. Savings and cash in the bank trump all football related decisions here though, always has and always will. Anything that happens on the pitch is irrelevant to this regime.

Baradji is "in contention" apparently.

According to Ismael.... Hayden Carter has suffered a new injury and will be out for a while. Cantwell still not "ready". What a shocker.

No coincidence that the last two players they managed to get to sign new contracts were both huge Rovers fans. No, Ribeiro doesn't count.

Knowing this regime, I think it's something as simple as they didn't know back in the summer and all of a sudden in the last 6 weeks or so somebody has cottoned on that we're coming close to this being an issue. All too familiar with things like that happening here.

Looks like he did his ACL a couple of years back and had various hamstring problems, will fit in nicely with Wharton and Carter. Although looks to have been an ever present this season to be fair save for one game on the bench.

I think that's exactly how we'll play unfortunatly. Can see them coming out with a huge intensity while we look lethargic and just not up for it, and having our lot beat within the first 30 minutes.

That post from Rovers would indicate that the last block at the other end won't be going on sale should those 300 sell.
