Is the Lucky Pint open for business? Lot of cobwebs round here...

The boys are off to Blackburn today for the Carabao Cup, and we can all watch along online if we wish!

Well that's all speculation for another thread.

I hope you guys who can access the iFollow service have a good afternoons viewing. For those of us without the right gizmos, I'm relying on usual updates from text, DFP and anyone kind enough to provide updates here.

There is sign of life afterall.

Let's not forget, Blackburn should be way ahead of us and not just due to their league status.

What we are lacking at the mo is obvious but they will have to step up to the plate.

After the first half was expecting abit of a thrashing but 2nd half we looked better and more than matched them shame to be out of the cup.

Darren can now work on them until the next game hopefully we haven't picked up any injuries
