I know “New Plough Lane” Isn’t ready but it seems bonkers to hire Loftus Road for games with no supporters allowed in, what is the actual point? They could’ve hired Park View Road for less if the Cherry Records “stadium” wouldn’t let them in anymore surely?
PVR wouldn't meet EFL standards
Are the standards not for the supporters? This game could be played down the park and no one would watch it but ffs play to the whistle lads....
Only half watched so cant really comment that much
Maynard-Brewer: Did really well, made some good saves... Future is safe with him coming through Lapslie: Played well @ Right-Back, a lot went through him Barker: Solid the parts I saw of him, comfortable on the ball and had a nice burst of pace Oshilaja: Purrington: Henry: Good second appearance, shame about the goal... Oshilaja did well to console him after his mistake Vennings: Really tidy player, made some good passes Morgan Dempsey: Had a really good effort towards the end, unlucky not to score, thought he did well Oztumer: Scored a free kick not seen since Kermorgant Davison: Put himself about as you'd expect, one effort (header) that went over, maybe could have done better

There will be rules concerning the dressing rooms, floodlights, medical facilities etc.
I think it was 2 years ago when Gillingham were relaying their pitch, they played Spurs U21 at The Valley as they weren't allowed to use a non league ground

Wouldn't have thought it was much different to playing at Kingstonians ground tbh.
Pleased for Oztumer. When at Walsall he always seemed to be hitting 25 yarders, so puzzled why he never looked like scoring last season
Because league 1 is his level?
But we pursued him and eventually signed him to play in the Championship not League 1. He started just 11 games last season and didn't play a minute after February.
To not play him and suggest now that League 1 is his level is an admittance that the management made a bit of a mistake in signing him in the first place.
I do think the step up from league 1 to championship is probably hardest step up in football. Gulf in class was very noticeable on a lot of occasions last season.

The latter hasnt done badly but was at fault for the equaliser
They still had a bit to do to be fair but he shouldnt have lost the ball how he did
