I'd be worried if I was Blackburn fan.
4-0 against a team of 17 year olds? What a disgrace they are.
Also. Absolute bollocks it does the young players any harm. They're playing against Blackburn in the League Cup.
You'd be f*cking buzzing.

Just finishing work been listening on gmr and was looking forward to try and get the second half on sky+. Don't think I'll bother. Seems like a futile exercise we could lose two more in training before Saturday so not sure what the point of this drubbing is.

Poor show this, not there but if I was I'd be asking for my money back..................Spend years trying to get back in the league to be able to play in tournaments like this and treat it with disdain. Resting players in the first week of the season, a season where we're not likely to go up or down !!! Mate. We've got 12 senior outfield players out injured. Think that's as may as we have available now.

If anyone is interested, the sum of our starting XI's squad numbers is 286
Blackburn's sum is 117

I’m gonna watch Alien, as a warmup for watching Romulus at the weekend - does that count as it’s nearly half a century old now? Romulus. Italian restaurant in Bramhall ? There are xenomorphs in our fair borough now?!

Done that and the "Info" button then gives a menu with 4 games listed, and a "More" option. That gives 5 more games, but jumps from Port Vale to Watford and no others. Crap. As I posted a little earlier, it’s because you’re on an older box/system. You can order a “boost from your Home Screen but you’ll need to wait for a new handset to arrive. Wife you can complete it. Cheers I'll do that. Not missing much anyway am I!

Not sure you can judge him much off this - or make any lasting judgment even if he's having a shocker.. Thrown in at the deep end vs a Rovers' Championship XI in a scratch defence alongside a kid with a load of kids in front of him. Not making a long term judgement off 35 minutes but it’s a disasterclass from him so far when you would expect him to be taking control/helping the youth players out Clearly was carrying an injury though.

I get your point but with our ridiculous injury records would you really want us to risk more in a cup game? It’s no more of a risk than Cambridge or Blackpool. It’s a major cup competition, we should treat it as such. I understand why we’re not, but I really don’t like it. Got to be pragmatic. Much better chance of getting a result vs Blackpool than Blackburn. 3 games in 8 days also increases the injury risk, especially when some have only just got back fit. It's not pretty but I understand it and agree.

Cheers I'll do that. Not missing much anyway am I! Good luck with it. Worked fine on one of our boxes but completely knackered the other (main) one. Engineer coming tomorrow, should have been today but they forgot to complete the booking !! On the box that does work it’s actually quite decent.

Hughes looks absolute pony Not sure you can judge him much off this - or make any lasting judgment even if he's having a shocker.. Thrown in at the deep end vs a Rovers' Championship XI in a scratch defence alongside a kid with a load of kids in front of him. Edit - he's also clearly been carrying an injury and tried to soldier on. I won’t be judging him on this but he was bad even before he got injured.

We've got 12 senior outfield players injured, if we played a strong team tonight and we got a few injuries fans would be absolutely fuming, it's a lose-lose for DC.
