Why haven’t we spent the Marquis money yet...squad is weaker than last year...loan players won’t do it for us....waaaaaah....
Donny Osmond, I think you ought to know that Chris Black's tongue was planted firmly in his cheek with that statement!! :whistle: :cool:
How did Gomes play today? I missed the game as I’m away for the weekend. Did he play centrally?

Errrm, no. I wasn’t.Whoosh :headbang:
Wright was commentating today. Fit enough to breathe seemingly.
How anyone can say Whiteman ‘is still in 2nd gear’ is beyond me.
Today we came up against a good side on top form. Ben’s game today was all about breaking up play. He didn’t have the chance to play more on the front foot & driving forward as he did at Rochdale where his endless pressing dragged the team on to gain a point away in atrocious conditions.
Plus he didn’t have Sheaf ‘covering his back’ but was ‘partnered’ by Gomes (who imo had his best game yet in a Rovers shirt) playing in a different role which Ben must have realised would curtail his ‘normal game’.

Fascinating insight from Wright on iFollow today.
The commentator said how May looks like a different player this season.
Wright's response. Something more or less like this:
"Well John last season...don't get me wrong, he did a brilliant job for us but...he was the sort of player who demanded everything was about creating chances for him. Last season, Alfie would get the ball and immediately be looking for John. This season, he's a bit more liberated."
It was clear from Wright's tone that Marquis was hard work for the rest of the squad.
Another very good performance from May by the way.
I agree with you in part, but if they get us up then we'll and goodWhy haven’t we spent the Marquis money yet...squad is weaker than last year...loan players won’t do it for us....waaaaaah....
I don't think anyones said the loan players won't do it for us, more about the fact it's short termism and they'll be going back at the end of the season and we'd need to go again, they're also not assets to the club which we can profit on.
Today we were good, and beat a half decent team, in an even encounter. We have work to do, and you can see we are a work in progress team, but the suns are good...very good.
Not read any news regarding Ennis and his goal, but I am still buzzing about it, a proper goal...GTFI that is how you deflate 3000 fans, and to be fair, I did see a lot of their fans applaud it too. Take a bow son, take a bow.... :scarf:
January window is far too late, Campsall. Have you seen our next 8 fixtures? If we come through those with no injuries, then I’ll be amazed.Would not expect you to say anything different Alan.
Need 3 in next week.
The Manager wants to bring players in so your judgement is better than the DM. We need strengthening if we are going to carry on competing. Let’s not forget we played a team that just been promoted, they have just lost to MKDons who were hammered against Peterborough today. We have done well let’s build on that strength we need those players (3) if the manager deems we do.January window is far too late, Campsall. Have you seen our next 8 fixtures?

Can’t see 3 more additions next week. There are no easy games are there. ( well apart from Bolton and we were cheated out of playing them ).
We have just beaten Fleetwood and Lincoln who are 2 teams tipped to be play off contenders.
So no reason we can’t get points against Rotherham, Ipswich, Blackpool, Peterborough etc etc
