Not to be a pessimist, but it’s worrying signs when we’re starting Worrall…

Does anyone know how to get this match on Now Tv? I have Now TV through my EE broadband and last year I was able to buy a day pass, but when I checked today the Now site says no memberships available.

Sorted it! Ignored EE and just signed in on a different account.

It's a terrible website but that message just means you don't have any
active membership. You just have to keep pressing buttons until, eventually, you land on a page where all the membership types are listed, including day membership. I've just been able to put one in my basket (without progressing, I'm not watching tonight).

Agreed. I thought he’d be more involved in coaching this season, he wasn’t up to it last year and I’m surprised we kept him on at all. Never a right wing back either. We desperately need some reinforcements soon or it’s going to be a long autumn and winter!

He's played RWB in promotion winning teams from this division.
Besides, nothing compares to when Mark Cooper started Jason Taylor against Aston Villa.

He’s two three years older now though since those Port Vale days and was never the best defensively, as some might say on here his legs have gone particularly for playing at wingback
I think that Cooper decision was him at the time making a point how light and unprepared we were. We didn’t even have a training ground at the time!

Why not afford him the chance of playing one full game this season before writing him off

That's more like it pressing higher up the pitch and better movement all round!
