Great points. Jones might be good enough if used correctly but I'm not certain. That Oldham game Jones was terrible but otherwise he seemed steady and despite not setting the world alight I don't recall him doing that much wrong. Before the leg break I had no doubt that White was then good...

Well I hope it goes well for him. Maybe Ben Turner was able to offer some insight.

I have only seen Knowles play once. He came on in the 89th minute vs Stevenage last year. I wrote that he showed a few glimpses of promise and tried to hustle and bustle which is a good quality. From what I recall he made a couple of good movements in the box enough to make me think he might...

What you're looking for after something like this occurs is the player showing a bit of insight into how much of a dick they've been and making a commitment to improve their behaviour off the pitch. I haven't seen anything from him since this occured other than him liking a .gif of a pigeon...

Did we ever talk about this interview when Evatt took over?

I'm no physio but he seemed prone to muscle injuries and strains since that leg break. I reckon he lost some strength in his joints and muscles, obviously on one side more than the other, which affected his gait when he was already weak from sitting around. So he's become injury prone. He really...

The really good thing about signing Maynard is, despite me earlier saying that we wouldn't miss him, is that I was joking and he will score 25 next season.

I am unconvinced that listing international players is impressive when you've been in the Premier League. There are some great names on there but you'd expect a Premier League team to attract players of that calibre. You might not get them all at once. I want to hear more about League Two...

I take it with a pinch of a salt when a private organisation claims to have done anything good. You can guarantee there's someone in the boardroom thinking it's good for profit, and their behaviour is never consistent across other areas of their business. Not saying this is what's happened with...

I know mate, you've already mentioned it.

Our youth strategy is to spend years developing substandard players and then to release them all.

No I agree a goalscorer is great and I wouldn't trade him if a replacement didn't guarantee goals, but if I had a choice between Maynard who gets on the scoresheet or someone who puts themselves about a bit and gets on the scoresheet, I'd pick the latter. Following last season I think we need...

Yep, and you've got a chef travelling with the team so things could not be any better!

I'm with you on that. I liked him but he didn't do much other than score

I love these posts about how fantastic a club is from top to bottom and how the corporate side has never been better etc etc. You'd have to be a proper nutter to write it and believe it (in a good way)

That was a great OG

This is pretty much identical to what I put in the L2 transfer thread. He isn't great in centre midfield. Plenty of energy and hard work but can't really play and hindered by a poor touch.

He's done very well to get League 1. He works hard and is likeable but he doesn't have the qualities to play centre midfield and in my opinion was a weak link in our side. His touch is poor and he doesn't seem to know where players are around him (you know that sense that central midfielders...

I have more confidence in him than I did at the same time as Evans, Flitcroft and Dempster.

I agree. I have mixed feelings on CJ. He is good but he should be better. He needs to polish the technical side of his game and be more of a leader. Not the shouty type but more confident on the ball and ruthless. He always seems as though he is waiting for someone to tell him where or when to...
