Wasn't Dovin out with a concussion, or monitoring for one after getting smashed in the head? Don't think he was dropped.

He was dropped for being too quiet

He was dropped for being too quiet

Is talking a lot the prime requirement for being a goalkeeper?

If it is we should drop Collins and select my wife.

Carlos Corberan was getting heavily linked with the Wolves job last week

Should Wolves pull the trigger after their loss earlier not only would it be an audacious move to get their biggest rivals manager but it could nicely upset the applecart for Wednesday night! Fingers crossed

Does she do clean sheets?

 

[StrettoBoy]

Does she do clean sheets?

Absolutely.

It’s one of the many reasons that I have always regarded her as a keeper.

 

[wingy]

Ooh -er!

So if shouted a lot but was no good that would be ok.

 

[JSL]

Dovin is our current best keeper and we need to nurture him as he is the long term future. That means protecting and also not pissing him off at the same time

Seemed to be how Ben Wilson earned his place

 

[fernandopartridge]

I suppose not wanting to admit wasting millions on Dovin

Do I have to tap the sign again: Players are signed for a period of years not months.

The Sunderland game he was out after being concussed. Prior to that he was dropped for being quiet

Dovin is the best stopper -the core requirement after all. Collins has the best and particularly the quickest distribution. As speed of transfer from defence to attack is tactically is where we have deteriorated most since the play off season this not to be dismissed lightly.

Don't agree with this at all - Dovin has the best distribution for me and has been really unlucky to be dropped as he's not really had any chance with the goals he's conceded (QPR aside!)

Apparently their stadium has been renamed to The Drawthorns

Well aware of that. But he has been dropped very quickly for someone who hasn’t done much wrong.

Yeah but everyone scores with your wife though...

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Lacking of clean sheets for sure

 

[MalcSB]

Spot on memory FP!





I'll stop reminiscing now. We'll lose 2-0 on Wed

Soft pens.

 

[eastwoodsdustman]

Thanks for posting that. Went to the match. Some terrible football on show watching the highlights!

I was there too. It was pretty nasty outside if I recall.

I would be very happy with a draw there.

 

[Covcraig@bury]

It’s 3-2 to us .. behave

We had our car keyed, Coventry plates.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Any itks know if there any changes for tomorrow? And who?

 

[baldy]

Borethorns

The Snore-thorns

 

[stevefloyd]

The Braggies

 

[torchomatic]

The Scorethorns tonight, no doubt.

 

[Macca]

The Scorethorns tonight, no doubt.

The Scorefourthorns knowing our luck

 

[Gint11]

Steal a 1-2 win cmon

 

[Offhegoes]

Think we need to be positive in this one. WBA will test our defence far more than Millwall did. Certainly don't want to be conceding early, as The Baggies don't give up much, and will be happy to sit on a 1-0 and pick us off later in the game.

 

[Saddlebrains]

Eccles and Bassette in

 

[thezunigadream]

Get something here and look forwards to a decent atmosphere on Saturday. Next few weeks we can claw back points on the playoff places.

Looks like different energy on the training pitch from photos. Believe.

Same squad outside or any further movement?

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Asante is looking a very expensive 4th choice striker, the hope would be Obikwu can continue scoring and get in contention for that role next year.
