On paper a tricky game but understand that although they have been getting results Carlisle haven't been playing that well? Despite a crippling injury list there must be a bit of confidence in our camp after last weeks result at Orient. Narrow win for Town and then the playoff push is well under way
Archibald going off was certainly the turning point. Very good player who murdered us at Brisbane Road last season. Good luck for the rest of the season as Richie deserves it
I’m quietly confident that we’re going to get something from this game. As E10 stated they have to slip up sometime. Love our trips to Orient ( few beers, pie and mash in Bethnal Green). If we want this to continue next season we have to continue our run (albeit two wins) of form.
I’m of the older generation as you put it and want us to play a passing game, however, Brennan and Clayton were playing between themselves and missing the opportunity to move it forward to Austin, Wakeling etc who were making some dangerous runs. Perhaps you couldn’t see those runs on IFOLLOW? I...
Loved your optimism re STFC but the playoffs look along way away. Having said that it is such a poor league that 3 or 4 consecutive wins will have us straight back into the mix again. We are struggling big time with injuries etc. Once (when?) we are back to full strength then we could still make...
After a shaky start he's been fine, in fact having 1 or 2 very good games. He's important to the side at the moment as a right sided defender considering the other two central defensive mainstays (Clayton & Blake-Tracey) are left footed
Not sure about a thumping as we have two suspensions and a number of injuries. Jody still to put his mark on the side which probably wont come until we are back at full strength. Really need a win from this one to allow us to start putting a run together prior to two tricky away games at Sutton...
This fixture also allows for Jody Morris watch in the Directors box. If he's there then the announcement should come either tomorrow or Monday. If he's not then fuck knows!
Going to be an interesting game against a resurgent(?) Gillingham. It feels, albeit after only 1 game, as if we have turned a corner and a top 3 spot is on. Confidently expect two or three signings before Tuesday so just need to get through this one first. Given their league position 3 points is...
Not sure that John Terry is employed by anyone these days? Jimmy Fraser , ex town youth, seems plausible given the player development model that we are adopting
Play like we did yesterday and we could win 15 of the last 20 which will take us to the top 3. Its Div 4 though and good players are in this league for a reason which usually means they are young and inexperienced and/or largely inconsistent. Walsall away and Stevenage at home will tell us where...
Actually to be fair I have nicked this excerpt from our forum which sums up how the majority of town fans feel about todays transfer
"He's obviously class, but has been a shadow of his former self so getting some cash for him is very good news. Losing him would have been devastating at this...
