    Sassi Starts for Rochdale

    I wouldn’t read too much into the BBC’s formations - they had Apter playing centre half for Scunthorpe regularly last season

    Coulson v Dale or Lyons

    Part-circumstances, part-player I would say I too want Lyons to succeed and build on the initial promise but he’s played plenty of games this year and done pretty much zero. Hence not getting in / staying in the team. He’s less lightweight, more flyweight - gets knocked of the ball...

    Bars in Reykjavik

    Expensive beer in Reykjavik… but if you head out early there should be plenty of happy hour offers to bring the price into ‘normal’ territory. Would recommend the Gull ❤️

    Nathan Tyson

    Decent earlier in his career but heading downhill by the time we picked him up, and (occasionally) playing in a poor side

    League One XG Table

    Given how little we created in the first 6 or 7 games I’d suggest, taking the stat at face value, it’s a reasonably good omen for the second half of the season. Formation is making more sense to the players, handbrake is off and assuming Joseph can bed in with a retained Rhodes there’s cause for...

    Cray Valley Paper Mills

    Stayed down in Essex after the Bromley game so went along to the Valley last night in the Paper Mills end The away ranks were seemingly swelled by tons of Milwall, West Ham etc who'd gone along for the giggle- enormous queues at the bar

    Casey red card

    Questioned the red at the time (on the last man rule, however cynical the foul) but having watched the TV angle, no issue with it Casey isn’t last man but the cover never getting across in time to prevent the 1-on-1 Beyond the usual TTS blinkered bias I can’t see any argument for it being...

    The Official Rishi Sunak Speech Thread

    It just amazes me that anyone who has ever spent 5 minutes in Blackpool, or any other neglected Northern and/or coastal town, could ever vote Tory. But there you go and here we are

    Kev Stewart

    Irrespective of whether the club has received value for money from KS’ services over the last 2-3 years, the lack of human compassion in some of the comments here is really quite depressing

    Could Ross Barkley do a job?

    Only if we can’t lure Messi here

    Lubala, Holmes, Emmerson

    One good game for us against Leeds U13s Otherwise, hopeless. Pre-season? That’s about his level.

    Charlie Patino in shirt again

    I don’t think anyone is turning on Patino on account of getting sent off. He made a mistake and it happens. Fact of the matter is, after early promise he hadn’t really delivered anything on or off the ball and his lovely left peg is a luxury we can’t afford If we had a midfield full of...

    Charlie Patino in shirt again

    Get rid. Showed early promise but massively lacking. Too slow, weak and hides in games

    Patino & Carey

    They don’t show for the ball. Well, not strictly true, they offer an option but in a not-so-convincing way. Patino does it every week. Half gets into space without ever really looking like he wants it rattled into him. Hence they go long. It asks a lot of any young player, at any standard, to...

    Olly Casey

    Casey is miles below what we need to kick on I’ve never seen Tharme play but suspect the same
