    Who knows. It’s gone a bit bonkers. Seems like our weekends are the busy times

    Still only just turned 30 though....he's not "old" by conventional standards....given he's playing in the second tier.

    Agree, he just doesnt have the legs to get about the pitch over 90 minutes. He needs to be more intelligent with his pressing at times, hes so eager to press all the time but sometimes its pointless running

    Be interesting to see if we do keep him or not, hes the most likely to go but think most of us are happy if he was still here the end of the transfer window

    Agree, I reckon Ballard and especially Batth would have made the difference, especially in the match at the SOL.

    When you listen to Mowbray talking about balls into our box, he talks about how important first contact is. Thinking back, it’s amazing how often that first contact, when we were defending free kicks and corners, was Ross Stewart.

    We missed his goals, movement, hold up play and physicality but I forgot how much we also missed his defending.

    Agree in a way....he's a good player and there's a kind of reassurance about him. Was disappointed with him last season though in his set piece delivery,which I often thought was poor. As I've said elsewhere, happy for him to be around,but wouldn't weep if he left.

    He had a tendency to position himself at the near post and people where I sit as well as myself often said he was one of our best defenders making so many clearances from corners and free kicks - he was missed badly v Luton.

    That's what I remember, he never seemed to pick a man up he just marked the front post area and had a great view of the flight of the ball so he could react to it.

    To be fair I'd watch the **** out of O9 Vice. Can just see him with a mullet and the sleeves rolled up on his blazer.

    Only found out about the match by accident on SSN and saw Amad's name - he's playing well. Greenwood is playing up front for Leeds. Only 18 mins on the clock though
