League of gentlemen featured a character who regularly wore a Millers shirt

I only ever watched the first episode of that.

It was a local programme for locals only

Earlier this week Head Coach Liam Manning confirmed that Jack Whatmough (calf) and Marcus McGuane (groin) are now working on their match fitness having resumed First Team training, with long-term absentees Bojan Radulović (hamstring), Joe Low (calf) and Lynden Gooch (groin) still working on their own rehabilitation at Canalside. Suffering from illness throughout the week, forward Alfie May is unavailable for selection as a result this afternoon.

[Lord Snooty]

Ashia in defence. Playing at right back.

---

At home. Against next to the bottom.

---

I stand corrected. He's playing right back, left wing and centre forward.

---

I stand even more corrected. One of them is Mumba wearing a wrist band. I'll sue that opticians.

---

Just like my earlier observations, Town are utterly clueless.

---

I don't care what anybody says, we were miles better with Lee Grant in charge.

[Lord Snooty]

59th minute. Shot on target. Crowd go wild.

---

Hey up. A goal.

---

Well we won.

Fortunately a Millers defender scored the only goal of the game. We wouldn't have scored with those tactics this side of kicking off at Port Vale next weekend. It's a year since we binned Duff Duff for being 7th, the guy in charge at Wycombe who are now above us again.

Other than his first 3 games in charge, Bernard has us playing exactly the way we were under Grant and Duff Duff.

We'd accept 4-3 wins and 3-4 defeats if it looked like you were having a go Bernard, but the way you play would make The Pope swear, or fume black smoke, or both.

I've a ticket for next week and I'm wondering whether or not just to go for a pub crawl round Burslem and sod the game. There's lots of them.

As reported on Radio Local, a 7 year old watching the game asks, "why don't we attack grandad?" Would have loved to have heard that one read out to Bernard in his post match presser.

[Lord Snooty]

Back in the top 6. What crisis?

[theo_luddite]

Aye, Bowton did their late, late show thing again to save our skins.

[Lord Snooty]

Lots of people saying that was the worst match they've ever seen.

How many times has this been said and repeated this season?

[Lord Snooty]

I'd post the highlights at this stage if I thought there was any point. Nobody wants to watch that again, do they?

So apart from it being tedious, boring and a great justification for our decision not to renew our season tickets, were there any good points to the game?

I though the return to the team of Anthony Evans was good. He looked lively, got stuck in and played some good passes before inevitably leaving the scene after about an hour. Bobby Wales put himself about when he came on and did more in his half hour on the pitch than he'd done previously. That's about it though.

[WakeyTerrier]

Not quite sure how town managed to stretch the highlights video on YouTube to a shade over 9minutes, 9 seconds would be better.

Another pee poor performance from those that masquerade as professional footballers. We have no one that passes between the lines other than McGuane which makes it even more baffling as to why we shipped out Kane to Plymouth
