If things continue on an upward trajectory for us over the next season or so, Sheff Utd look like how I hope we will in 2 years time. Very organised and fluent.

Now that I think - It needs to run through the Sky Sports mobile app (which I had to download) - so that probably explains it working on the mobile, and not laptop. But if you don't have access to the television (like when I take the kids to bed), it's handy to switch to the mobile, and the picture on a modern mobile is decent.

Not sure about the laptop, but I have watched midweek games through my phone. So I imagine it is similar. All the red button games were available to view from the same web-page, but it took a bit of googling to find it. I've found the picture to be much better on the phone, than the SD on a 50-inch TV.

We've got our Rovers back! Pride, fight, passion and an unnecessary melt down. Let's get the bus started and get out of there before anything else happens!! Table looking healthy tonight

Hopefully that's the bad half out of the way....

Dack is becoming invaluable. To have such an important player, who fits into the team ethic so well, and provides our spark, it's hard to put a price on that.

Stunned that Derby can afford close to £7million for Martyn Waghorn, yet can't afford to pay for a dozen ball boys/girls. Helped add to the ponderous atmosphere of most of the game, and suited us well. A point is a great one after that performance. Dack looked a few yards off the pace

First instinct to scan straight to the bottom - Dack, Dack, Dack? Yes, very good! Then his supporting cast. Great to have him back. Not ecstatic about Smallwood. Must be getting close to last chance saloon with all the options biting at his heels.

I don't buy that it's worse before a break. No point drawing today and spending the next 2 weeks thinking all is well in the garden (sorry Bradley). This needs to focus a few minds. You sink or you swim

Well, we weren't going to go unbeaten all season, but this was a pretty meek showing. The usual drive was missing somewhat, I think Bristol's high intensity played a part in that. This side really misses Dack. When the game has gone, I think you see the real character of a team, and our heads went down drastically. Very disappointing to see. Happy Birthday me

@Biz Detailed and thorough analysis. I have to say I share a lot of the same sentiments, including the hope for Rodwell. The squad analysis read like a quick synopsis of the runners and riders of a Grand National!

He could complement Pasey Kalmer very well.

Excellent preview. That's how to do it. Feeling strangely confident about this one. It seems to be catching. Imagine how the players are feeling. One slight point of interest - the thread title lists the game as the 1st. As it's my birthday it stood out.

You misunderstand. 'Likes' to play on the flanks, and 'likes' to pick up the ball out wide is conjecture. I know Forest played him in a wider role in the senior side. Like any good player, he fulfilled the role. I've not read anything indicating where he himself likes to play. Regardless, I don't necessarily see our CF being a static position, just that that quartet would be very sharp on the eye when utilised. It doesn't need to be the same players every game. I imagine Tony has a plan for the boy.

You've seen a lot of him I presume? Tony likes a versatile player, with the ability to interchange. I imagine he will be utilised right across the front line, including as the focal point.

Winning is a habit. It becomes engrained in the psyche. We just need to keep riding this L1 train as long as possible.

Brereton up top. Arma, Dack and Palmer behind. Hard to fault that. Not many defences will enjoy their afternoon against us this season. Pace, guile, young, exciting, English. That would have been hard to believe in the not too distant past.

Hmmm....

I'd say in the right light, it resembles Harry Redknapp....

Saw the team news, right at the start of a family day out today, with no phone service. Returned to this. Magnificent little surprise. I would have been happy with a point. The longer we can ride this Promotion momentum, the more it shapes our season for the better. Tony has instilled a never say die attitude, and pride in the shirt. It's all I ever want in a Rovers side. Some big tests on the way, but we relish these games against more fancied teams, and with Arma's pace, and Dack's guile to come back, very content this evening.

I don't think there are many that have came out of the last 4 years at Sunderland with any credit. Bit of a career graveyard. If, as Tony says, we will be seeing something a lot more exciting than a free agent in the next week, I will be happier with Rodwell in and around the squad.

My oldest boy has epilepsy. Thankfully light sensitivity isn't one of his triggers. I imagine some sort of warning should be given out regarding flashing images that bright, for those who it is.

Watching on Sky SD, I missed the second Reading goal - I couldn't see where the ball had went. I thought it had went harmlessly out of play, and next thing the commentator was shouting 2-0. Surely it must have some effect on the players too

Very good second half for Bennett - full of drive. Evans and Nuttall putting in plenty of effort. Rothwell playing himself into a starting role. Very composed. But a special mention to Nyambe. At times I thought there were 2 of him in the second half. Lad just keeps improving.

It's hard to be disappointed with a point, being 0-2 down at half time, with this 11 on the pitch. It took 2 penalties, as they had zero threat of creating a goal between them, but that was 3 points on a plate for a full strength side. Big 9 days ahead for Tony. As he says, the group needs help. On tonight's showing, urgent help! But Dack returns, and we go again. Still unbeaten.
