Why would Armstrong go back into L1? Not having a dig at any of the clubs, but he tore it up at Cov last season. You'd think a January loan to lower Champ team would be ideal..
Looking forward to this, a variety of past results at the County Ground so who knows what will be thrown up here.
Last time we played at Swindon I'm fairly sure Di Canio goaded us at full-time, it was the most entertaining part of the afternoon.
Was a good evening out last night, we put in a much better performance than I expected too.
Onto Saturday, hopefully we can carry that good performance though.
Sky's predictions and the Evening Standard's predictions are very, very different. Be interesting to see what side they go for in the end, it doesn't matter that much but I'd rather lose 4-0 to a few names :lol:
Bolton's side is a lot better on paper than I thought, but I think that's because they've kept on players and not bought loads. Opposite to Charlton basically.
Anyway, bit disappointed with us yesterday at least for the first 30/40 mins. Bolton played like a Parkinson side does, not pretty but...
Yeah I think that's accurate. 11 it was slightly more even.
The way you lot gave up after going down to 10 though meant it would've been a bit harsh had Roberts' (?) effort gone in, the way it fell to him was a bit lucky in itself. Having said that, the bloke still should have scored.
Was pleased by our performance yesterday given we simultaneously rested a few. Dunno what Oxford fans think but I think if that sitter had gone in at the end it would have been a little undeserved in my view given they just seemed to give up after going down to 10.
Was surprised by Sercombe and...
Lovely goal. Be nice for a day/evening out, given our lack of cup exploits in recent years.
You'd guess its soon, no idea if they'll reach general sale mind..
All due respect to Vale, but if a bloke of Wilson's reputation and experience (striker at clubs pushing for promotion to the Premier League) drops down to ANY club in L1 you have to question...why.
Who knows, I can't really gauge what quality the league is. So many unknown quantities.
We'll give it a good go, whatever happens. At least we know that under DC. Not expecting a huge success tomorrow but it'd be nice to start well!
To be fair the last time we were in League One the top half was arguably the strongest its been in recent times, and we only started really struggling when we tore apart the core of what made us successful over an 18 month period. We did that in favour of 'quality signings' on decent wages -...
Don't make many ventures on this side of TFF, but I want to say I'm disappointed that you'll be avoiding the tinpot hashtag kit fiasco.
Although the whole disapproval on the eve of the season starting is spectacular in itself.
Sarcasm my good man, we came across the bloke many a time! Still surprised he ended up in Conference North though. You'd have thought he could have had a career as a Conference manager.
Simpson is a weird one. Clearly has ability but so inconsistent - would take a decent fee to prize him away too you'd have thought.
Gills making good signings.
I agree wholeheartedly, there's a few clinging onto the idea of remaining and its fairly hopeless. I always thought Smith's referendum idea was for the terms of Brexit wasn't it? If he's brought up the 'second referendum' idea then he should scrap that fairly quickly.
However, I'm not sure UKIP...
