    Referee Analysis Blackburn

    Just checked the next few fixtures and blackburn's aren't against our relegation rivals so that'd be fine. If they were playing teams around us I'd have said leave it cos otherwise we're just making it easier for their next opponents.

    Ratings v Rovers

    Who knows? Going by that same thought process would Walker have scored two the other day if Max hadn't been on the pitch? He won the penalty and chased down the goal kick to get us in for the second. And without those two goals we don't win that match, so by that argument Biaomou won us that...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Not particularly enamoured by it frankly.

    For me Biamou should've continued running straight on and Gyo released the ball to him at that point and then changed direction to continue going more central, potentially blocking off the defender from getting to Max. If the defender can continue getting across Max then has the option to...

    Sheaf

    We brought in a striker with international experience in Jan on loan from a Prem team. He just doesn't seem to be very good or at the very least is severly lacking in confidence. Not a budget issue - a recruitment issue. Also deflected from answering if/when Sheaf is picked over James it'd be...

    Sheaf

    So if in a future game Sheaf plays ahead of James you'll be taking that as proof Sheaf is better? James was brought in to cover Kelly's role in terms of experience and leadership. MR clearly wanted to see how james and Kelly would play together - could bring a very stable midfield allowing us...

    I think we can safely say we won't be looking to bring him back next season.

    If we could win at least a couple and not lose any that'd be brilliant.

    Sheaf

    If you'd actually checked I've stated I'm uncertain about Sheaf at this moment in time (but may well be a decent addition over time as he learns how to play league rather than U23) and felt James was a decent experienced addition to cover for Kelly while he was injured. Point was you were...

    What the manager THINKS. Doesn't mean that's how it'll work out. James could have an absolutely mare for all we know right now.

    Unfortunately only those scored with the ball count.

    Sheaf

    Trouble with saying that is you're therefore saying MR doesn't make mistakes. But he clearly does at times. All you can say at this stage is MR has chosen a line-up that agrees with what you would do. That doesn't necessarily mean it's the right one. We won't know that for another three hours...

    Didn't think both Hamer and O'hare would drop to the bench at the same time. Even more surprised that Shipley is the player brought in for O'Hare. I guess he must impress in training. Hopefully he can have a good game and use that link up play and shooting he can be capable of. I imagine both...

    Barnsley on a madness

    In that case it's even riskier as not only are you relying on getting player recruitment right but also coach recruitment.

    Barnsley on a madness

    But all it takes it a season or two of doing that and getting it wrong and you can suffer. It'd be a double whammy because if they don't work out not only can you not sell them for big profits but poor performance on the pitch could result in relegation and loss of income there as well. It's...

    Barnsley on a madness

    Nowhere am I saying they're lying. I'm saying you can report them differently and come up with very different outcomes. All would be transparent and above board but the reported values would be massively different. Had a quick look through last set of accounts on Companies House (2019). Main...

    Jodi Jones - Finished?

    Is that or is that not how a raffle is supposed to work? The person raffling it off gets a decent profit but all those people that enter stand a chance of getting something markedly below its true value. Most won't get anything but you enter knowing that's the likely case. Just like buying a...

    Barnsley on a madness

    Not read them. Fact is you can produce a massive variance in accounts just by adopting different accounting policies or classifying things differently in terms of expenditure. You can turn a healthy profit into a loss just by not capitalising certain expenditures on the balance sheet and...

    All purpose cricket thread

    I also don't understand this. of course a team can bowl slowly, but just as often a batter will get replacement gloves, wander around, remark his crease etc while the bowler is stood waiting to bowl. Yet it's a bowling team that will get penalised The rule is that if the bowler is ready the...
