After Wembley and Lopez`s departure we needed a couple of midfielders to compliment Lee, Bannan and Hutch...................Tom Cairney and Aaron Mooy would have been ideal...........................we got Almen Abdi and Dave Jones

Agree with this.........................i would also add Van Aken and Pelupessy to the "see if we can offload" list.

Westwood - 9 Not bad for a has been bad apple Palmer - 6 Defended OK, wasteful in possession Hector - 6 Not at his best Lees - 8 Like the Lees of old, defended brilliantly Fox - 4 Nothing against the lad, he`s a trier but ,he is playing a league above his standard. Reach - 6 Was doing OK , nothing special Bannan - 5 Gave the ball away far too much and quite clearly struggling the last 20 mins....he could barely run Hutchinson - 7 Typically strong and never gave up but passing was off today Boyd - 4 Rightly kept his place but back to being ineffective and pedestrian after Tuesday`s pleasant cameo, really surprised he stayed on Matias - 4 Game completely passed him by, horrible slash at our best second half chance Hooper - 5 Showed some nice touches but still very rusty Fletcher - 5 Usual graft, but continually gave the ball away or lost possession Nuhiu - 5 Won a few headers Forestieri 5 Injected some energy but wasted our best chance with a careless pass. OVERALL Ah well...………...it was nice little distraction while it lasted and fair play to SB for rescuing a season that was shaping up to be disastrous under dishcloth, but our limitations were exposed tonight and we can spend all summer looking forward (FFP allowing) with a lot of optimism...……….as well as cursing those first miserable 5 months of the season that now seem like a bad dream.

Am i allowed another,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and dont shoot me for this but.............Callum Mcmanaman.............out of contract and played under Bruce at Wigan.

Danny Williams (out of contract at Huddersfield)

Kin rotherham...........................rolled over and had their tummy tickled just like they did at the stain, hope they go down !

Read "A Breath of Fred Eyre" and "Another breath of Fred Eyre".......didn`t realise he had done another (kicked into touch) must find it as the other two were brilliant books, still after all these years two of the best football books i have read. The stories about Larry Lloyd at New Mills FC and the Wigan ? physio tw@tting that fan

Westwood - 8 Solid and dependable all night..........making a few people look very silly "cough Jos"" Palmer - 6 Actually I thought he was a bit below his recent standards last night Lees - 7 One awful clanger apart he defended well Hector - 7 Consistently good Fox - 6.5 Got turned a few times but did pretty well overall Boyd - 8 Prodigious work rate and what a strike !!, probably his best game for the club Reach - 7 Much better than recent displays, took responsibility in Bannan`s absence Pelupessy - 6 Never shirks but often seems out of position and "chasing" Matias - 8 There is definitely a player in there, we just haven`t seen it often enough Joao - 7 Typical Joao performance.........looks like Kanu one minute.........Kim Olsen the next, if only he could add consistency to his game. Fletcher - 7 Usual line leading performance Hooper - 7 Not knocking the starting strikers but how much more did it "stick" once this lad came on.........please stay fit.

This.........the OP has a weird obsession with fans "scapegoating" players.

Thorniley has come on leaps and bounds this season but unlike some i think he is still a little way off being ready to start week in, week out at the heart of the defence.

Hopefully a deal for Hector can be done with payments staggered over 18 months or so to keep FFP police happy.

Blackburn Rovers £3M...…….you heard it here first.

Someone i deal with through work is a Blackpool fan and rates their centre half Curtis Tilt very highly...............out of contract at the end of the season as well, apparently Rangers and a few others have shown interest.

I see a lot or the same posters who said JL was right about the "bad apples" Westwood and Hutchinson are now sticking the knife into FF...........hmmm.
