[Danilinho]

Marsh looks decent on the wing ... good to have him as backup option

 

[Berkshire Blade]

First of 25 this season

 

[TheSecondComing]

Gwaan

 

[The Hobott]

Nice goal Cannon

 

[ben1987]

I go away in three weeks time…….

Safe to get the suitcases out!

 

[Harry's Game]

Personally I’ve always liked him

 

[Blade56]

 

[TheSecondComing]

Sell him immediately

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

 

[espoo blade]

Never doubt him!

 

[Danilinho]

Is SUTV just audio for this match?

Sadly yes

 

[VictoryBlade]

Never doubt him!

Me neither! lol

 

[Sean Thornton]

Safe to get the suitcases out!

I still wouldn’t back him to beat a kitten in a wrestling contest!

 

[jt64]

What channel is it on blayardssss

It is on Sky. The same as every game in this shit show of a cup.

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

Tyrese Campbell, Tommy Cannon, bibberty bobberty boo

 

[Aston max]

Usual grumble, no one working in midfield

 

[Tom Bott]

Do NOT want to see Cannon

 

[John Street Bar]

It is on Sky. The same as every game in this shit show of a cup.

What’s the Sky Chanel/number?

 

[Sean Thornton]

What’s the Sky Chanel/number?

Sky + red button

 

[silver blade]

Our leading goalscorer fires us ahead

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

I'm confident Cannon will get us at least 15 goals this season

Give this lad the service and he will deliver

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Donavon has some get you off your seat ability about him. Like what I have seen so far from him even if he is raw.

 

[espoo blade]

Donovan looking lively! Bit stupid of them to give him so much space.

 

[Sheffsteel]

There’s the spirit.

Astonblade is incredibly negative and miserable.

In fact when we’re winning or playing well he goes missing because he can’t bring himself to be happy and think positive.
Feel sorry for his friends and family. Altho there’s a few Blades like that, always revel in the negative.

 

[Sean Thornton]

Commentator mixes up McGuinness and Baptiste

 

[CornwallBlade]

Donovan has looked excellent but against what is, let’s be honest, a shockingly bad Blackburn team

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

I like Donovan more than JRS

Holds onto the ball better

Think he has 15 G/A in him

 

[Sheffsteel]

I'm confident Cannon will get us at least 15 goals this season

Give this lad the service and he will deliver

You can imagine him going to Stoke or Preston scoring loads of goals.
Then our fans saying they always knew there was a good striker, sack the manager, sack the board, sack the owners.

It’s similiar with McBurnie, often abused here for being crap, can’t trap a bag of cement, never been a striker.
He goes to Hull and now it’s, “why didn’t we buy him when he was available”?

 

[TheSecondComing]

More like it

Those saying that, like me, wanted him back before he did a thing for Hull

If Cannon starts scoring for someone else so be it. He's shown nothing here. And there's a fair bit of money at stake
