I've just watched it again and Thomas wasn't offside. However, as Fleck plays the cross Tudgay IS offside. (You have to pause it as Fleck makes contact and it is marginal.) But after that the defenders drop deep, Tudgay comes back onside and it comes off a defenders head so I thought that...

We'll swap him for a stadium? Haven't got one of them.

Kirkland has signed for Preston.

Charles-Cook - 7 : Started a bit slow but grew into the game. Couple of decent stops, couldn't do anything about the goal and distribution improved after a poor start. Phillips - 7 : Wasn't utilised enough for me as he has more pace than Stokes who saw a lot of the play down his side. Couple of...

He did okay well in that area. Dived at full stretch to palm away a cross and that seemed to be what boosted his confidence. Took a few high balls in the area but none of them under and pressure. Could hear him shouting occasionally.

I don't think there is much difference between them to be fair. I'd maybe keep it as we are with RCC getting some game time here and there. As mentioned his distribution early on in the fame was woeful, both with feet and hands but he was always looking to roll it out short and get the game...

She also doesn't have an issue with being premature which is fine by me.

I think Rochdale only made one change from their good win over Peterborough at the weekend and that was at full back ( May be misinformed.) I also think Fleck played very well tonight. He played a very similar role to their captain Allen, who was one of their best players. Played very deep with...

This thread has got me reminiscing. Remember playing under 14's in St Helens and I had a brace at the time. Went up for a header and the the defender launched his head backwards catching me square in the mouth. As I got up my mouth was pissing blood and the inside of my mouth was embedded on...

Agree with this. They are a decent team but at times they really struggled to do anything but clear the ball long. I do think however that they were very well organised at the back and made it difficult to break them down.

Thought over the 90 mins we were the better side. Was bemused when Tudgay's volley was disallowed (looked a great finish as well) looked drained as to be expected. They should very scored from 2 simple headers and I'm still not sure how Cooke kept the 1st one out. Ruben and Maddison looking...

Started slowly but grew into the game and looked more likely to score as the half was coming to an end. Cooke looked dodgy early on but got better and pulled off a decent save. Couldn't do anything bout the goal. Rickets looked very good and brought the ball out ell but their goal came from him...

Was a scrawny 17 year old playing open age and slid in for a head on challenge with a big clumsy centre back. His knee went right into my bollocks and I was in agony. Looked down to see blood all over my white shorts and went light headed and started screaming thinking I'd ripped my ball bag...

Newcastle linked with another big money striker today so that may work in our favour. I wonder if they have been scouting Maddison. If so Armstrong will probably be feeding info back to them and if they want first option on him we may be able to use Armstrong as bait in terms of extending his...

He did say he belongs at a higher level and made it sound like he has already made his money which makes me think it is a big name. So i'm set up for a major disappointment when it gets announced as Dean Marney

Jermaine Jenas? Or has he retired? Know he's doing some tv work

Sounds like he might be a similar type of player as Ward, Describes himself as a 'box to box' midfielder and if he can play centre back you would presume he can put in a tackle. Imagine if he was to get a game it would be along side Vincelot and then the more advanced role would be between...

Wasn't it a winger they suggested would be the possible free transfer?

Ricard? He was foreign.

I was hoping that we might see him played in an advanced/attacking role under TM and we we would then see if he does have the talent to make a difference but from what people are saying it sounds like he is still playing quite deep. Doesn't seem to effect the game much there.
