    Andy Rose - Getting forwards

    That's why if we use the long ball we need a big strong target man. Will that be Yakubu? Who knows. Someone said they heard we offered him a contract last night, but there's been no news. I would have thought he would need a week with us at least before a decision could be made.

    Striker situation

    Or am I? Maybe statistically I will go down as one of the worst supporters of all time.

    Andy Rose - Getting forwards

    I thought Reilly and Thomas and DKE and Reid were trying to pass it about a bit with crisp passing, in the first half at least.

    Andy Rose - Getting forwards

    Cos my initial guess would be Ghadzhev, who seems to amble about a bit on the pitch.

    They were all throwing themselves into the fray at times.

    Andy Rose - Getting forwards

    Certainly seems to be down the pecking order, which makes me think Slade doesn't rate him, or can find no place for him in the side at the moment. With what we have got, I like Stevenson and Reilly as the best central partnership

    Andy Rose - Getting forwards

    Yep. Hoping this Gogic comes through and impressed enough to warrant a contract. Think we need a tough tackling, strong defensive midfielder, sort of in the Vincelot role. I liked Rose when he first came, but for me he has gone very much downhill and now looks distinctly average. Struggles...

    Mowbray, you beauty!!!

    I meant to ask , the CT are saying that Rose 'utilised his aerial presence' last night. Baffled me because I didn't witness that. Have I got problems with my eyesight or I am right that, that really didn't happen? Or do they mean headers from defending our own box? Hard to tell who was...

    I am already in the spare bedroom. Next step is the shed I fear.

    The Ref,Ainsworth & Tudgay

    Not lazy. His legs had gone by about the 65th minute though, so maybe it appeared to be the case.

    WEMBERLEY!!!!!!

    Fair point. Aren't we just going to replay this whole scenario next year too?

    Andy Rose - Getting forwards

    Anyone else noticed that he seems to have stopped making runs into the box to support the attack lately? He used to ghost in and scored a few goals as a result. Lately he doesn't seem to be doing that. Can only be down to tactically not being given licence to get forwards can't it? Seems to...

    Alan Simpson died today too. One half of Galton and Simpson, who wrote Hancock's Half Hour and Steptoe and Son. RIP.

    Mowbray, you beauty!!!

    Most of the players last night were neither Slade's or Mowbray's. RCC DKE Haynes Harries Thomas Tudgay Beavon was Slade's Reilly was Slade's Reid, Rose and Turnbull were Mowbray's. And then Jones too when he came on. I wasn't impressed with Reid or Rose, but was with Turnbull and then Jones...
