Jokanovic would be a strong shout

If WBA can sack Moore after a run of only three matches without a win, then it makes you think tbh. Why should their ambitions be greater than ours.

George Boateng appears to be working behind the scenes in some capacity. Could do with promoting him to the first team, help inject a bit of steel into some of our lot.

Bit disappointed it's only a two and half year deal, especially if he spends half a season of that out on loan!

Alex James @alexjameshack 1m Rovers have been given permission to talk to Harry Chapman. TM hoping to bring him in. Potential for it to move on on Monday. Story online later. #rovers

Not in Boro team or on the bench

Where's Rodwell?

You have to see the bigger picture with young keepers, ala De Gea. He is a natural shot stopper, athletic, agile. The rest is mentality and will come. He will be a top keeper imo.

Hanley back on loan?

I remember Jordan Rhodes getting us a winner there to stave off the relegation fears during the disastrous Kean/Berg/Appleton first season back in the Championship back end of 2012/13.

In the strongest terms possible....absolutely this

Cleared this one up laterly pal. I was agreeing with whoever thought you were talking sh*t, which is most people. So jog on.

Lol literally spent +£10m in the Summer window

Yeah chill mate, I was agreeing with you that AAK had probably had a few pints after the game Although I now think it is you who has had a few pints lol

Yep. Idiotic

A half-fit Rodwell was as good a CM as we've had in several years. Smallwood might try more but that's purely to make up for that lack of natural talent. Fully fit Rodwell will be a Rolls Royce at this level.

I've heard several times from different sources that if we're in the top 10 come January there will be more money to spend and I would imagine, if that's comes to be, that a quality CB would be Tony's first target after a Summer of targetting midfield and forward areas.

Yep, this.

I feel like we're a Championship equivalent of Liverpool pre-Van Dijk. Stick in a quality, top 4 Championship standard, no-nonsense, intelligent centre half - probably in place of Lenihan - and I think we'd be majorly better for it. If Reed and Rodwell grow into that centre mid role it could be the difference between play-offs and not.

24,000!? What's their capacity? 50? More empty seats and blocked off areas than Ewood.

Red button coverage is poor. Standard definition, one camera, no replays, no co-comms. It's a real budget offering that needs vastly improving to even being close to being a game-changer. And considering Sky have now lost La Liga along with the Champions League a few years back without a hint of a price reduction it's frankly insulting that the coverage of this is so poor and under-funded.

Both teams woeful at the back

Karanka says Brereton wants out: https://www.nottinghampost.com/sport/football/football-news/aitor-karanka-ben-breretons-blackburn-1945861

Yeah one of the usual Sky Championship guys I think. No co-commentator though.
