As I mentioned earlier, the words excessive, reckless and dangerous are subjective and not every referee would have deemed that challenge a red card despite the wording of the law on fouls. We just happened to have a referee who thought it ticked at least one of those boxes. I think it came under the heading of ‘looked worse than it was’, exacerbated by Laird’s obvious overreaction.

They were signed now for now, there's nothing in the chase for these players, their ages or previous achievements that suggests they were prospects we had to buy now to deter others or that they are solely for the Championship. If you look at the three who actually play : Bradley, Norris and Xavi they are the ones with Championship experience.

The coach either wants to go slowly slowly with any changes at the risk of us becoming a bit stale (unlikely because most have been seen and a couple now play regularly), he genuinely doesn't rate them or just isn't happy with their fitness or efforts in training.

No point buying players with an eye on the championship and then not using them when you need help to get there.

I wonder if Rice just took over all recruitment when it was clear Blooms was off to win over some fans and some of the data and sense checking went missing.

That will be a big miss, especially against Wrexham.

Me too. Still struggling to let go, even now.

Well at least the theory that Dan Rice was having undue influence on team selection has been debunked since he was prominent in recruiting the Danes.

With regard to the Centre half, he would have to be bloody good to dislodge Low, Taylor and Bradley!

I'd rather the money combined total spent was used to bring Morley in on a permanent.

I’m just going to say it, and hopefully I’ll die on my sword here… but… I think we’ve had our absolute pants pulled down with the two Danes and I don’t think we will ever see much of them.

I sincerely do hope I’m wrong, but these lads didn’t come from the other side of the world with little knowledge of English football or our language.

as others have said there’s no way that’s getting overturned. I think it should have been a yellow but it was probably an orange challenge due to the speed. I think the ref was influenced by the crowd too.
