    Music played when a team scores still absolutely agitates me…
    That, and having goals sponsored by some crappy organisation also grates.

    I have to say I am more upset about hearing this than I thought I would be.
    I never saw him play, never saw him beyond his role as an ambassador really, but understand he was the greatest player of not just his time, but arguably ever.
    He’s been a living legend for my whole life, and now he’ll live on in the memories of football fans for many years.
    My son always goes on about how great he was and has a Brazil shirt with Pele 10 on his back…
    A true legend, who will be missed by the world.

    My pet hate at the minute.
    Goalkeepers catching a simple ball and falling to the ground. 
    Pickford seemed to start it and constantly does it. Almost every keeper in the UK has followed suit.

    In fairness, every player signed this summer has contributed.
    That is an impressive hit rate, to be fair, when you have no money to spend, as you usually get one or two outright duds, no matter where you shop.
    I know people may mention Anang, however I think it’s unfair if he was broken as soon as he arrived, and he was only ever going to be a back up to Wildsmith anyway.

    Just had a quick look at championship right backs who are out of contract in the summer and there are three “out of favour” players who all played under Warne at Rotherham.
    Josh Emmanuel (Hull)
    Darnell Fisher (Boro)
    Matthew Olusunde (Preston)
    Certainly could be seen as potential options as players who clubs wish to offload…

    As well as illness FGR have their two big scorers from last season returning from injury. Matt came on as a sub but clearly not fully fit and Stevens didn't get on, again not fully fit. Their best winger was out of contract and went to Barnsley close season and their manager was poached by Watford (and typically sacked shortly afterwards.)
    They are a small but honest club located in the middle of nowhere who I have a lot of time for. 
    I felt for them today.
    We were good, if not quite at our best, and the gulf in class was obvious. But they didn't resort to kicking and cheating tactics, as many other teams have done. 
    I hope they find their feet and enjoy the rest of their season (one more  game against us excepted!)

    maydrakin got a reaction from Ramarena in Warne isn't the Messiah and Stearman is a very Naughty Boy   
    It’s rather inevitable that Warne will get some stick when things go poorly.
    He has replaced Rosenior, who had an awful lot of good will still on his side, was universally popular and was doing alright.
    As a result, the “cuckoo in the nest“ will have to do better than how Rosenior was perceived to be doing.
    The Port Vale match was a game most fans turned up to expecting a win.
    My concern is we have changed our style of play and formation, which does not necessarily suit our players - playing forward players as wing-backs leaves us susceptible at the back, meaning we have done a “Morris” by building one team and now needing different players that suit the new managers style better.
    I just hope that we stick to one philosophy and don’t go down the new manager route if Warne doesn’t bring immediate success.
