So what was the bombshell Clement was talking about on Saturday??
Meyler and/or Swift being dropped?

Barrow on the bench-I am with those that think that a player is either fit or he isn't.
It's not as if he has been out for 3 months and isn't quite up-to-speed as he has only been unfit for a week.
He is our best player and IMHO should be playing.

Royals and Racers Dack out injured for Rovers


He's scored all their goals this season just about.

They are grizzling quite a bit about both Dack and Palmer being out

So maybe a small glimmer

Kelly gets a game? So does Aluko?!

Please prove me wrong.

I can only surmise that McShane as Captain was going to be dropped but that Ilori has picked up an injury. Why would Ilori not even make the bench otherwise?
Presumably Barrow is not 100%.

Reckon our bench would beat our starting 11.

That is a bizarre looking side. Nothing like setting up solidly. 4 forwards - effectively a 4-2-4 away from home when you don't have a point to your name. I think Clement has lost the plot already. This could be a long night

Presumably Clement lost his shit about Meyler

Not a reliable source but a comment on FB that Ilori refused to travel. I could understand if he's pissed off to be honest.

Well looking at that team it could go one of two ways. Either Clement will be hailed a tactical genius.....or......he really is, as I've always suspected, a poor mans Steve McClaren.

How in the world did our defence allow the Blackburn player that much space to pick his shot like that?
