Awful decision especially as Barnet should have had a penalty just before Brentford went 1-0.

2-2 now with a penalty

Barnet have come back from 0-1 to lead Brentford 2-1. Brentford have a few players who can really smack it from distance so will need closing down from 30 yards out on Saturday.

Very smart man management by Mowbray. Reassures the side which slaughtered Hull, keeps Conway hopeful and throws down a challenge to Chapman. Pulis always kept Stoke players whippet fit if I remember correctly so I doubt he is doing any different at Boro. That said the medical staff might have a different view on conditioning to avoid injuries.

Mowbray knows the Mirror sub-editor..

It was put to me this summer (so a year after their visit) they weren't "proper accountants" from the two big 4 firms. The rumoured £750k bill suggests they were management consultants rather than bean counters. Your analysis ties in with the club adopting a four window strategy for transfers once we were back in the Championship and explains why money was ear-marked specifically for a Brereton style signing in the Summer and fits with BA being targeted now. BA has only just turned 26 (6 December birthday) so will have a good resale value for another three years or more- he is only a year and a few days older than Bradley Dack.

Fantastic to have Harry back.

Another great from my childhood passing RIP

He is actually a south London boy and is 6ft 4ins.

At least if we get relegated we can be sure of having international weekends off..

I have been accused of winging it on here....

Well I have just signed a contract, who is the other one?

Three nights in the Bigg Market- the man has stamina, give him that.

there being here (Brockhall) or there (Boro)? Ok seen the answer. There means there. It is all there to me in Malta.

Watch for a little figure running in the cold round Brockhall...

Scores with a fair few contested headers. It also has him in talks with Rovers...

Boro league table shows: P28 F31 A20 Who would want to be a forward there? Do they even need forwards?

I and others posted last summer Rovers had a four window transfer strategy but if we were in with a shout of promotion in January, additional money would be considered. Mowbray has delivered the goods with four wins, three clean sheets and after not deserving to lose any of the three other top four games, set things right against West Brom and off we went. Plus two games against Newcastle where we gave as good as we got and would have progressed had VAR lottery been reversed.

Looking good for Chapman's return. Good news especially because: - enhances club morale and spirit - we won't have signed him if his pace has gone and pace means more space for everyone in Championship football because of preventing teams pressing en bloc. Very clear Adkins had set up Hull to neutralise us rather than play their high pressing game which played right into our hands. Having Arma and Reed as speedsters with Chapman off the bench or a fabulous back up for injuries makes Rovers a potent threat. - Crowd pleaser. If he doesn't bring missing fans back, what will?

Assuming the links are real, makes sense going for both but if we land our preferred target it doesn't mean we will also sign the back up. From past experience there is a high probability that the purse was opened very late in the day so Gallagher was number 1 until a phone call changed everything. I wouldn't be surprised if we start getting offered any number of players and the links multiply as agents and clubs realise there might be a budget available at Ewood.

A loan arrangement makes sense for both clubs given who Boro are supposedly chasing this window. Following the game v Hull, I will be ok if BA signifies Bugger All...

There is a number 45 on there who might be familiar- BB?

Rodwell is class and class is permanent. I would sign him ASAP.

Pulis headstrong enough to sell him. Venky's rich enough to buy him but beyond that seems somewhat remarkable to say the least. He has never played in the Premier so maybe his wages are within reach.
