    I find it ironic that the keeper our fans wanted out of the side is actually the best out of the 3.

    Never understood the Horby love in and Bass makes so many poor decisions.

    Hornby didn't come up through the ranks. He came from Port Vale.

    Same points clear of bottom 2 as we were before yesterday's game, and 1 less game for them to catch us. Not happening

    Be very interesting to see how Hughes handles him, and talking of which, I land in Manchester on Saturday, will get to see the PV match and maybe the Hartlepool one. I can feel a change in fortunes!

    I must be the dissenting voice on the jury then. Until the Mansfield game I don't think he'd put a foot wrong and he was simply average against Swindon. One bad game and one average one vs. the other 14 appearances he's made doesn't make him a bad player. I think he deserves a 1 year contract for next season.

    Foulds would be an acceptable back up for next season, not quite first team quality but probably not going to hinder the budget too much and the reality is at this level we are going to need a few cheap back ups in various positions that are capable of doing a job. The sooner Ridehalgh returns the better he's exactly what we require at full back a steady no nonsense player who gives his all.

    All eyes on Oldham for a while.

    They lost for the first time, I believe, under Sheridan, to Carlisle of all teams.

    But pretty much ALL the teams below us are effectively within touching distance. The biggest gap we have in real terms is 9 points, but Oldham have 2 games in hand. For teams that have played the same number of games, the gap is a mere 6 points.

    We are the only team to have picked up 0 points from the last 15, so in effect, EVERYONE has been gaining on us lately.

    Squeaky bum time for Bradford City.

    Hopefully there are two worse than us.
    Scunthorpe look gone and Leyton Orient haven't won since 7 December.

    Our goal difference is probably worth a point too.

    Wouldn't be surprised to see ROD & Evans start on Saturday. When you're struggling, you can do worse than go for experience.

    The parallels between Bass's time here, and Hornby's out on loan, are pretty clear to me.

    Hornby's been dropped, we should drop Bass too.

    No, I mean what I say.

    Not my fault the experts sold Canavan in the most nonsensical move in...

    ...

    ...

    Well, in truth, the club has been pulling moves as nonsensical as this most seasons, so I can't even be dramatic about it.

    I personally thought it was pretty obvious ROD wasn't the problem, but some on here were like a dog with a bone on the issue.

    We'd concede 1 goal in a game, and certain posters would be up in arms no matter what manner of goal it was - but god forbid it was a cross.

    I'm not ROD's biggest fan, especially for the wages he will be on compared to Hornby who is no worse/ no better, but given what we have seen from Bass (especially the weak way he let in that pathetic daisy cutter second on Saturday) he would be benched for me (and Hornby recalled) with ROD given another chance,

    Hopefully they’re no longer our feeder club and our scouts can actually scout

    One of them is Ridehalgh, who is undoubtedly our best (only?) left back.
