Game not happening as Robins wants 1 week of training at Ryton into Stoke game.

Right decision.

100%. It was ridiculous to have a friendly so close to the start of the season, we'll be playing Sat-Tues-Sat week in week out soon.

Probably because of the riots in Leeds

does mean if everyone is back in training there's no chance of any minutes for those who have been missing before the season starts but they will obviously have considered that and decided any benefit is outweighed by the negatives.

another sign, as if we needed one, that it is actually Robins who gets final say on these things.

Glad it’s canceled. Hope Sheaf is okay and ready to play versus Stoke.

De Rossi will be happy, he doesn't like the idea of losing to a team in sky blue.

Probably the right decision, just hope Sheaf and Wright ate judged ready enough for Stoke.

But if not we have good alternatives now.

Are you a complete fucking idiot? It was a play on words about Roma Gypsies at Leeds. Gawd I give up!

Yeah. Just as stupid as starting with a back 3 and wingbacks today. At least Sheaf and Rafa had good games today.

So do I but I wonder if he will have sufficient match fitness to start.

At least we have decent strength in depth now.

Actually I thought our midfield today vs Werder Bremen was only slightly above average without Sheaf which is why I really feel we need another CM. WB looked very fluid in their counter attacks.

I don’t disagree but WB are a level above the Championship.

Sheaf is our best midfielder so we may not be at our absolute best without him but with Rudoni, Torp, Eccles, Lati and Allen it’s not disastrous.
