Ghost of Clough

Trialist - Alex Stepien-Iwumene from Southampton. I can't see us making it a permanent move based on other players we have in that position.

Fotmob says the trialist is someone called Brendan Kiernan 

A 31 year old who joined Palace to have the same role as we've given Bradley Johnson?

Delighted for the lad. It will give him bags of confidence to move forward .

 

That said having watched four of his goals for Gateshead now, I think he still has a way to go before he's ready for our first team. I reckon a season long loan would be good for him next season, possibly with a League 2 side. 

I thinknit would be 6 months in L2 followed by 6 months in L1, or a L1 side to taking a punt on him for the full season.

Bardell missing at RB, having picked up a head injury last time out vs Man Utd.

Fornah not included either, which means he'll be on the bench instead of DRobinson tomorrow.

Wheeldon still out.

Other than that, it's about as strong as we field.

Highest in 23/24 = 29,957

Higheet in 22/23 = 31,744

Highest since 2016 = 32,211 current capacity 

Highest since 2008 = 33,087, with next best 33,011, then 33,010 (9 times) capacity with away fans in the south stand

Could have had a 5

The run in between Barnsley, Bolton and Derby is like watching three bald men fighting over a comb. 

Peterborough too. Only 6 points behind with a game in hand at this moment in time

How didn't that go in? :😱 

Looks like we were lucky not to have given away a penalty for handball. Ref seems to be losing control

Get in there!!!!

I cant see their number 6 staying on the pitch for the full 90

Exeter 2-1!!

Soft foul given in favour of Sibley. Bristol Rovers player was a turd by not giving us back the ball and obviously went unpunished.

Soft foul in favour of Bistol Rovers from the resulting freekick.

Exeter scored vs Bolton... 1-1

Matt Hamshaw sent off 

Probably because he pointed out how crap the officials have been so far

Ref urging Wildsmith to hurry up when he had to jog all the way over to collect the ball and jog all the way back. Ball boy just sat 2 foot away from another ball the whole time

You judging that from Rams TV over a lino who was in line? 🤣

The one in the 5th minute was onside so I haven't trusted him in any borderline decision since

#26 flung a fore arm at Bradley when that ball was played in

Now a good tackle from Sibley is a freekick to them

Derby's first foul and it's a yellow. Bristol Rovers had to commit 3 of those and a couppe of small fouls to force the ref to book them

Excellent passing move ruined by the lino with wonky eyes - Sibley cross across goal found Gayle who poked it in.

Gayle played it out wide, then attempted to make a run into the box. I say attempted, because he was being dragged back the whole time

2nd very late challenge. Neither worthy of a yellow according to the ref
