I was so drunk at that game I thought Keeley's sending off was harsh and protested accordingly......

Yes, nothing says 'rates him' more than keeping him on the bench while there's a hole in centre midfield.....

Both Garner & Gana would be better with a strong, solid centre-mid colleague. Is that Rohl? We'll need him on the pitch consistently to find out!

My third game. My Dad had to convince me that it wasn't normally that good!

He's bought players at great (for us) expense & isn't playing them. There's a huge hole in centre mid, and he isn't playing the solution he bought. The centre back who would move us ten yards up the pitch is uncomfortable at left back. Not sure he's helping the players' confidence at the moment.

If he's as 'impressive' as described in training, he should be straight on from the start. He'll only get used to the English game by being on the pitch. Huge error from Moyes. And McNeil instead of Dibling? Really?

I'm pretty sure Moyes has the final say on transfers. I think he's picking players based on what he wants them to be rather than their actual strengths. The likes of Barry, Dibling & Rohl will only improve by being trusted enough to start a run of games. If they're not trusted, why were they bought?

It looks to me like he trusts neither Barry nor Beto to give them a proper run. If so, why not let Ndaiye have a free role in the centre and bring in Dibling out wide? And Alcaraz in there to move the ball forwards more quickly?

Playing him and hooking him early isn't helping anyone. If he bought him, he should show more conviction and give him a proper chance.

I hope you're right. Mateta plays in a team with pace & purpose that creates chances. We're not helping Barry at all, are we? I'd give him a run in the team.

That was a great moment on an awful night. Nothing was going to stop him netting that rebound!

Oh, but it has. Pulled away from where Dyche had us, nestled in the safety of midtable while we wait for PSR issues to lapse...

I remember this well. Wonderful stuff. Many a good on-pitch scrap back in the day!

Never had it till we moved up here. Comes to the door every week now, with the hot smoked salmon & salmon fillets...🙂

No worries re relegation for me. I'm sticking with my original view of 10th, though I'd happily take 15th if we win the FA Cup!

No, no. We've had long, hard seasons in the bottom four recently. That was very hard.

I knew at the start of the season our lack of quality would have us finish mid-table.....
