How is Liam Cooper able to play? Ismael said it was pointless looking at the out of contract players for a CB as they would take months to be able to play.

Is it just the 7 points? I can think of 7 points from 4 goals. 2 v Birmingham 3 points 1 v Wrexham 2 points 1 v Ipswich 2 points.

As the clock ticked 90 I was so tempted to put £10 on the draw after we’ve conceded so many late goals. Tbf we would have probably conceded late against 10 men in the original game

He’s been able to walk past Tavares like he’s not even there! Awful player for us

Tavares on seems a very strange move. He’s been awful for us so far.

Just read Carl’s post and had to comment to let him know that my thoughts are with his family in what must be the most horrific of times.

Miller lucky not to give away a pen. We’d have been screaming for that all day at the other end

Just got back to my mates place where I’ll be staying tonight before heading back home in the morning. He’s a PNE fan so I’m amazed I still have a room for the night!! We deserved that win. I feel we offered more all night and it’s got to be one of the best away games I’ve done for many a year.

Sheffield Wednesday have just bought in Liam Cooper and said he’s likely to start on the weekend. Kind of flies in the face of VAs comments that free players wouldn’t be fit for 6 weeks plus.

I’d agree without the injuries.

You’re famous Superbrfc

On a yellow, wonder if he’ll be an early sub.

I’m heading to this. Been a while since I did back to back games but the international break has made it possible.

It clearly is Jim. Based on people arguing that this squad is better than last year.

And in the BBE lower by the start of half time the only pies available were meat and potato. Everything else had sold out at the outlet I visited. I ended up having a hotdog and thought I’d ‘treat’ myself to the chips and drink with it. Asked for those as they come as an offer and was told that’s only for the early bird offer lol. Didn’t seem to be anything obvious on the signs but maybe I missed it. Just seemed a bit poor. I was at the ground before 10:30 but it really didn’t feel overly special. The fireworks were probably the best part. Decision for the ref to blow the whistle before then having the last post played was always going to end up in chaos. Everyone knows what happens when the ref blows the whistle after the silence, everyone cheers!! Should have gone straight into the last post and it would have no doubt been perfectly observed. I do wonder if the club have realised that they may have dropped a massive bollock with the 150 shirt. If it’s been proven that we never actually played a game in an all white kit then it could be a bit embarrassing. I wonder if someone has taken it from a quick google search without fully diving into the history. Anyway, not having a special kit worn or available is a joke and just about sums the club up at the moment.

Left home at 6:45am for the long trip to Ewood. Caught up with some good friends who I definitely don’t see enough, that was probably the highlight tbf. The M6/M5 was kind so I was home by 6pm. We didn’t do enough to win that game. The strange idea to play Henrikkson in MF and Hedges at CB made us a little shaky. I prefer Henrikson further forward so I’m surprised it wasn’t Forshaw or Montgomery and then Rebeiro or Pickering at the back. It shows how threadbare the squad is though. Have they realised how bad Tavares is as he can’t get anywhere near the pitch. We were being told he was some superstar signing in the summer.

All the talk of loads of ex Rovers playing for them, they had two in the team last night (stoke had 4). Im heading up for this one, will be an early start but wanted to be there for the anniversary game.

It was mentioned on comms that it was his 5th yellow and he would miss Saturday now.

Yet only 2 started for Derby despite them supposedly being a team full of ex rovers

Will we also wear the black trousers and little blue hats?

Derby 4 wins in 4 and us 3 in 3 definitely makes for an interesting game. Their 4 wins seem to have come when Trav got injured.

Three at the back has been good for us but not sure how we play it for Derby without 3 fit CBs 😞 Hopefully Wharton will be ok but I’m guessing he’ll be missing. Toth is the biggest worry, Pears could be very very shaky and not even sure his head will be in it after we tried to get rid of him over the summer.

So I doubt we’ll be signing the three that you would like to see come in unless someone goes out on loan potentially but I don’t think any of the squad will. We also didn’t include Garrett in the 25 (is he over 21 now?). Centre half will be a loan recall which makes sense to me. He’s been getting good reviews in the league below and is hopefully ready to finally make the step up.

I know Chaddy will probably have the answer but how many can we actually sign and register? How many spaces do we have left?

I’ve got no issue with O’Riordon coming in as the extra CB. He’s our player so let’s have a look at him. Do think we need right back cover, silly to let Duru go as he would have been a good option. If we want to play 2 up top we need another forward so I’d like us to bring some quality in there ideally.
