    Do any other set of fans in the country bang on about recruitment literally the entire season?

    It's April. We haven't made transfers since January and we can't make any more until July. It's redundant to bang on about it.

    The fact is that the players we have are more than capable of beating Blackburn. The performance is on them and the head coach.

    I have 4 of our better players having their worst games of the season today. That's why we're being embarrassed, not recruitment.

    Your patter is pissing everyone off mate. You've got an agenda against Speakman and it shows. Yes this season hasn't been the one we expected after last season but we get this season out of the way and go again next

    I doubt we'd be as bad as this mate.
    Granted we'd gone off the boil under Mowbray. But we've gone over a fooking cliff since.

    **** right off. I have posted less and less. Watched others on here argue the world round. .

    But I say something and it's my fault.

    Speakman wanted Beale. ****e.

    Speakman wanted Dodds ****e.

    He is the incompetence, weak link we have here.

    What meant was Mowbray would still be on leave, and we'd still have Dodds in charge.

    I totally agree. It's all gone belly up since the decision to sack Tony Mowbray.

    First half of the season was not bad at all, but the second half has been a complete **** show.

    If Speakman sacked Mowbray for not being a yes man then recruited Beale he needs seriously looking at .

    Ha’way Rigg. He’ll be pushing for starting for the remaining games. The lad is quality

    Today is a shambles and there's no excuses for that. There is always an element of one team having much more to play for at this time of the season and Blackburn fully look like the team that need the points. On the plus side it's good to see Clarke back on and Rigg getting more game-time.

    Building for next season there's a lot of young players who will have benefitted from this season and the Clarke situation will either mean starting the season with a striker who is likely too good for this level and still improving or a chunk of money to reinvest - not a terrible situation either way.

    all I can say is that it’s a good job that Huddersfield are failing to win and Sheff Wed are losing or we’d be looking over our shoulders again

    3 goals for Rigg now, maybe one or two others from out academy should be on the bench instead of the serial failures favoured by Dodds and co.
