Is today the game where everyone who doesn’t usually score is getting in on the act?!

That’s a very dark joke for a match thread!

We need more goals from midfield, and Shipley seems to get goals from nowhere. It’s a good attribute to have and worth us keeping around. I don’t think anyone is suggesting he’s one of our best players now.

For all the hate Shipley gets, he does have a knack for scoring some really well placed goals. Definitely has a role to play next season. COH could probably take a leaf out of this book and shoot more often!

On the fundamental issues, Boris Johnson speaks the language of the working class. Whom overwhelmingly supports Brexit and is generally socially conservative in these red wall seats. Besides, Labour’s elite has also been overwhelmingly Oxbridge educated too. In relation to Corbyn, his entire...

It’s shortsighted to pin it on Corbyn. There were fundamental issues that predated the Corbyn era. Miliband oversaw the loss of Scotland and there’s a reason why parties like BNP (initially) and later UKIP began to hoover up Labour votes on the issue of immigration. You’ve got Brown dismissing...

The big thing in 2017 was that UKIP voters flipped to Labour. The current trend is that Brexit Party votes are being transferred to the Tories. If that trend follows, there are some really big hitters at risk in the Labour Party. Ed Miliband (Doncaster), Dan Jervis (Barnsley) and Ian Lavery...

Labour and Starmer has got some really difficult decisions to make. For too long, it’s pandered to the view of its membership rather than the wider electoral base. If Starmer wants to ‘rebuild the red wall’ he needs to start by apologising for attempting to have a 2nd Brexit referendum and stop...

I also think Ainsworth has done a really good job to take it to the last day of the season too (technically).

Arsenal are just a really boring team to watch who make the same mistakes over and over. They need to stop trying to emulate Man City because they don’t have the personnel for it. Either way, Guardiola has adapted to be able to play more direct too when it’s needed.

I think we’ll probably end up keeping McCallum on loan. Is developing exponentially under Robins. There was a need to sell him when we did. But, it makes you think what if we held fire selling him until the summer as L1 champions?

Our recruitment really has been hit and miss over the past 5 seasons, hasn’t it? Not like we’ve gone from a L2 team to a Championship one...

Viveash said he was the ‘quickest’ player he had seen. Wakefield was unlucky with injuries and illnesses and so on. Maybe he could’ve developed into a decent player.

Correct me if I’m wrong, I think Gibbo meant pace on the ball. Something Walsh did brilliantly for us is picking the ball up in midfield and driving us forward. Someone who was a fast ball carrier without having absolute pace.

I think the Serie A will suit his style of management best. I’ve got a lot of respect and time for Mourinho.

Pretty sure even Rotherham fans have been expecting them to win a game for some time now! Luton and Cardiff are two tough customers. Personally, I think Derby will stay up. Sheffield Wednesday need to win against Derby and that probably plays into the home teams chances a bit more.

Especially as we will no longer have Ostigard. Presuming we do not resign him. Defence is so important and overall, our defence improved as the season went on, but we gifted way too many goals. Especially in away games. I’m happy that we have two strikers who could feasibly score 10 goals in...

It depends on whether or not we’ve got options lined up or not. MR has hinted at a ‘summer of change’. Personally, I’d like for us to be in a position where can get a better player in. But, in fairness to Biamou, he has added value in some areas despite lacking that killer instinct to be...

Gyokeres could be a could be a good signing. He's a bit of a diamond in the rough like Jutkiewicz was. He's got some good attributes that need to be polished up and with Godden's injury record, he'll definitely get time to develop.

I'd understand this thread had we got rid of JCH, and lingered in L1 or even got relegated. But, we got promoted and have two strikers who score goals. Robins may have had his reasons to get rid of JCH and perhaps that was a blunder to move him on. But, his overall strategy for club has...
