Rhodes benched

[Howie5o]

..and today we just missed a killer goal ...

Just a shame about Citeh's marginally offside one![/quote]

didn`t think you could be offside from a corner.. [/quote]

After the delvery of the corner and the ball has then been touched by another player belonging to the attacking team, it ceases to be a corner. So in that instance, yes you can.

Schoolboy knowledge is that Sax!![/quote]

maybe the ref missed the touch on, as did i..[/quote]

how the fck could you miss that touch ..touch putting it lighlty ..from your armchair Saxo .?? you do leave yourself high n dry at times ..[/quote]

Indeed Howie. I'm sure numerous highlights will show Sax that it.

If our entire game plan is based around Rhodes then Gary Bowyer should be nowhere near being our club manager .
He constantly picks Rhodes as a lone striker , which we are all agreed is not his game (ask Gordon Strachan ;-) )
Rhodes has scored goals despite our game plan being totally against how he would like it to be , not because of it .
Gestede will be the perfect foil for him and I am excited as to what the second half of the season could turn out to be like .
Get Evans fit and we could be flying .

Needle ..i do agree ..but as you say Rhodes has done rather well with 9 blokes not entirely playing to his strengths ..and yes get someone alongside him ..he or more so the the team could benefit even more ..like ive said before ..its a 22 game season now looking at one possibly two play off places ..we re in form ..so ..

City's goal was offside. We never at any stage looked out classed. We should certainly have had a pen for the GBH that crap keeper of theirs committed on King. And he should've gone. I thought Gestede looked decent. Lowe was superb. Made me eat my words. Cairney looked as good as anyone on the pitch. A class act again. Both signings this week have been excellent.

The reply will be tough. They have 2 league cup semi's and a few league games coming up, so this is by no means over, and they will not fancy having to play us. A superb result, off the back of a great 3 points at Leeds. Rhodes will benefit from the rest, as he was carrying a knock, and I hoped to see him paired with Gestede soon. Playing 5 across midfield today was the key decision by Bowyer. Very well done to him for his selection & tactics.

Extremely doubtful that the turd has a father...

He's got plenty of neck though to keep coming back so often when he is scorned everywhere and consistently shown to be wrong and a liar.

My gut instinct tells me that it is the accountants who will determine if JR is to be released.
My own opinion of JR has been well documented, and yes he is the kind of player who can appear to be hero to villain from game to game. Having said that I see no villain in him, as he is an honest player who would readily acknowledge his own failings.
He is simply a goal machine that adds very little else to the team play, but the guy does try, so cannot be criticised for that.
In situations where he is 'off his game' i.e. the right balls are not being delivered, it is up to his team mates and manager to work a solution. Otherwise replace him for plan B.
As for laying chances 'on a plate'??? No, he's far from AS's standard, but I have seen very few 'easy chances' buried by him. Then again It may well be the previous JR's 'efforts' that are clouding my judgement
