Roly playing at half speed and easily the best player on the pitch.

Any of you guys that don't care he's going to City are nuts.

Piney really does elevate the level of 'bants'.

Commentary isn't bad

and I lasted 8 mins before muting the commentators. It ain't radio, you don't have to talk the whole time. The art of football commentating seems to be dead.

Only if he takes Finklers place at #10

Roly was appalling at DM

I'm getting a chubby for Smeltzy again (TBH I always did).

It's like they put the band back together again.

Coaching issue rather than a player one i'd say.

Nah - that would be terrible tactically. Parkhouse and move McG to the right. Then straight swao with Smeltzy later on.

That might be because our season's on the line and our team actually give a stuff.

Still, only 1-0 up near the break. It's only a couple of goals away from a disastrious result.

Spain '82 is where it all really began for me. There were a few moments before, plenty of moments after, but that World Cup was the zeitgeist.

He's working really hard which is great but his touch is so poor for a player of his pedigree, not to mention price tag.

Should be 4 up

Hopefully this wastefulness in front of goal doesn't bite us in the arse.

To be fair it's his best game of the season by a country mile. But yes if he keeps playing like this I care.

Definitly a Player Attitude issue. Anyway in a 4-2-3-1 with Lia and A-Rod as the 2 he looks considerably better.

A Rod controls the game so well for us and opens up smoothly... showing his worth tonight as well.

Everyone gives Kwabs so much shark. He's an ex player of ours and deserves a little respect. 

But, yeah, he's been quiet. 

Just doesn't link play at all. Give the ball to him and he'll never pass or find the next guy. Fairly predictable.

Pain on the other side has been very good though. I saw Pain v Tratt in Nelson pre-season and Pain tore him a new one. Nothing's changed.
