Was chatting to a Charlton supporting mate at work last night about it - we both said the exact same about it being NL. Ironically, the highlights of the goals will make rovers look like Barcelona.

God bless Charlton, we’ve become their bogey team recently. Thought overall it was a deserved 3 points, but it was 2 poor teams tonight. 3-0 and we were rocking a comfortable victory, then 5 subs in 3 minutes and suddenly we’re gifting Charlton goals and makes for a nervy ending. Overall, best...

None so far

Jesus we’re in trouble unless Taylor sorts his shit out quickly. Really wouldn’t surprise me if he’s gone in 2 games time

I was more disputing your valuation of being worth £15m now and doubling if you go up - not a chance. As I was saying, even if he gets 30 goals this season, a striker scoring 30 goals at L1 and 12 in the championship the season before is worth £5m+, not £20-30m. The latter is the most important...

Nonsense. He’s only “worth” £15m because you lot were going to spend that much. You couldn’t flog him for £10m right now, and just because he gets 30 goals in L1, he’s not going to be worth £20m. No one will pay that. If, and I doubt it, there is interest to recoup that money then he’ll need...

Weird game yesterday. We were atrocious for 70 minutes and suddenly after putting on our better players, who're all attackers, we suddenly play P'boro off the park and really should have drawn, if not won it. Over the balance of play, we deserved nothing, no doubt. Not sure if I'm concerned or...

Burton will never be relegated from this league. Can't remember how many times you've looked buried, only to pull off a sensational comeback.

At the very best, average. I think the reality is that there’s still a Barton cult in the fan base and whoever took over wouldn’t be accepted. Rightly or wrongly, our expectations these days are to fight for the play offs in L1 and anyone who’s not doing that whilst delivering attacking...

From the way he’s talking, sounds like it’s interviews post applications rather than attracting others?

I agree, but it’s circulating like mad. Our local press is saying it’s nonsense though. Relegation scrap? It’s only a few games in surely? We were 3rd in L1 at Christmas a few years ago and bloody Mansfield in midtable L2 took Coughlan off us, so it wouldn’t surprise me, Taylor isn’t exactly...

Even if Carlisle did approach us for MT, and if we said yes, I really don’t believe for a second that Taylor would move his family up north again so soon.

It’s very early days for anyone to be talking about going up, especially the promoted sides. You’re benefiting from a very weak L1 last season, the weakest in a very long time. A lot of teams have invested more this season though so it’ll be interesting to see how/if that has changed, so far...

You reminded me of England at their worst under Southgate playing out the back and gifting chances at times. I don’t remember, until the final 5/10 minutes where suddenly you looked unplayable, you creating any real chances though? My mind is pretty foggy mind.

Yeah have to say Cambridge are in real trouble. Could have easily been a few more

Yeah I have a feeling we’ll get a bit of a comfortable loss actually, sending the forum into meltdown. Really looking forward to seeing what we can (or can’t) do with Martin & Soririou in the mix. Would be happy for a point. Any chances we can blame the pitch quality if we lose? :whistle:

Great point at Rotherham, undefeated and no goals conceded in the league. Worried about our attacking prowess though, looking forward to Martin back hopefully against Stockport away, which is not an easy fixture

Tough game away at Rotherham. Would be good to grab an unexpected point though and lump some early pressure on Evans

If you’re looking over your entire history, fair enough. I guess I’ve always seen you as a L2 club but that’s just my history of Rovers / Wrexham I guess

Are you? 10 of the last 40 years have been at this level so wondering what you constitute as how/where you belong?
