Makes a lot of sense this appointment. Much prefer a well respected seasoned professional over some analyst who has never played the game. I’m sure Friend will be fed data but will also get trusted opinions and his own judgement of what makes a top pro as he’s been there and done it. Sort of encouraged by this move.

I can't stop thinking if we'd be any worse of if we'd kept Joey 😢 He'd have gone back in for JCH I'm sure of it. Couldn’t stand the guy… but we have massively gone backwards since he left.

It’s rare so many fans agree on one point, so if we can all see it, why the hell did Taylor encourage / allow / set up to play passing, patient football in those conditions. You play direct and into channels and win 2nd balls. Jesus wept!
Oh well, thought Vaughan looked to grow into the game and think we will enjoy watching this lad as Taylor suggests.

Dwight Gayle on a free until the end of the season…. Any other free strikers out there worth a deal until the end of the month?

Given his age, numbers he’s reached over the past few seasons, ok even with lack of quality recently he still really works his arse off for the team. He must surely be reaching nearer the million pound mark. Given Conteh is worth £300 k.
Good luck to him, feel he’s ran his rovers race. Look forward to the excitement of welcoming a new striker before deadline day.
Still buzzin from yesterday!! UTG

I was right behind the goal and it came off his elbow and Crama seemed to suggest the same when looking back to Ward.

Great show tonight from the fans and the team. Norwich had an abundance of pace, which is exactly what we lack and feel Matt T has eluded to this fact. Oh well, loved hearing and seeing the mem rocking once more. Well done all.

Without trawling through all comments and pages, surely Chris Martin is on a big weekly wage. Anyone know what it is? With that off the books, surely makes getting JCH a more doable deal….. anyone be able to work that one out. Loved Martins experience and fight and finishing, however would rather JCH at this stage in his career.

Shows again we are missing a actual goalscorer, very poor showing first half. Barnsley look like they want it alot more. Nothing between the teams, but exactly right. Goal scorer the difference, wouldn’t want to sign a proven one at this level though that would be crazy right!?!?!?

Very useful to have in and around the squad and he is such a good finisher.
When he came onto the pitch tonight the Charlton lump number 2 gave him a shove, Martin barely moved. Martin shoved their number 2 back and he flew about 5 yards, really made me laugh.
Sign him up!

I hate why clubs allow these clips to go out to the public. If that was the true speech, it wasn’t the best. Won’t really impact anything in the long run, but just don’t get what is shows or proves to us fans. Saying ‘this is a good squad but we need a great squad’ isn’t the best way to say you believe in what is in the room! Oh well I’m fully behind the chap but please brfc media, stop posting cringey stuff like that. He didn't say that he said "this is a good squad of players. But we have to be a winning squad it's what footballs all about" He also said he only took the job because of one thing and that was because of the players sat in that room. I thought that was a brilliant thing to say personally. I thought it was an excellent clip to show us what he's saying to the team. I'd like to see a lot more behind the scenes stuff like this. Apologies, I stand corrected, that’s what happens after a few glasses of wine and trying to watch it whilst trying to put my kids to bed!!! Lesson learnt there… listened again, much better line, phew. Still don’t like these types of releases. Excited to see the new gaffer taking charge.

I agree with Dude. The passing game I like, if we became a hoof ball side, we would complain about that as it has been seen down the Mem before and it isn't pretty. We lack the conviction to make that final pass, the right players supporting in the right areas. If we passed the ball as we do, creating the same amount of chance, but actually got to the final third and stuck the ball in the net, there would be no complaints about passing that ball about the back. We are very wasteful going forward, we don't have a midfield that are consistent, particularly in the middle, there are players in the 11 that now deserve time on the bench, sorry but Collins, Finley and others need a wake up call. I think the owners need to go back to Posh on their knees and beg that they let JCH join us. If we can find some better CMs then let's do that too. Absolutely this, the 10 long kicks we pumped up last night we lost all 10… I really don’t understand not rating Cox, his kicking long is really consistent for goalkeeper and often he does this under pressure as it isn’t his first choice or option. Keep possession should be the way to play and it is definitely not the goalkeeper or defenders fault we go nowhere, as people are starting to allude to on here, it is 100% the midfielders fault, not knowing how to receive the ball on the half turn or how to find the space shows a lack of awareness. A lot of professional footballers do not have the required awareness to really cut it, they get away with it just through their other attributes. Bogarde has the best awareness of any of our midfield along with Evans, Bogarde is still slightly scatty at times and Evans doesn’t always seem to be in favour for one reason or another. Woods has potential there but is so immobile it makes me look sharpe.

At least we are all enjoying the exciting football under Barton Well the problem here is, this tonight isn’t Barton football, so all the whingers that have said all the passing the ball around is pointless have got their way tonight and it clearly shows you’re all still not happy with long diagonal pointless balls like we’ve been used to for far too many years here. How about, all in the stadium get behind the boys 2nd half and see if Barton delivers a few rockets in the changing room!
