Yes, we've lost 2 loan players because of significant injuries, Kyle Edwards and Stan Mills. Vs Derby, of 6 wingers in the squad, we had 1 available. We've also had Jordan Thorniley, James Henry, Stephan Negru, Sam Long, Greg Leigh, Josh Murphy, Marcus Browne, Max Woltman, Billy Bodin and Josh...
We've lost 4 loan players, James Beadle (who has gone to Sheff Wed on loan), Kyle Edwards (injury), Stan Mills (bad injury and rumours he could be out for 9 months) and Sonny Perkins who none of our managers fancied picking.
We've signed ex-Millwall winger Tyler Burey on loan from Odense and...
I'd agree with most of that but after our first goal, it was only one team in it. Jack Stevens achilles heel of getting beaten by long distance shots to his low left happily reared its head which was nice. A brilliant reaction save from the deflected free kick though.
Tbf, Rodrigues does get...
Very comfortable 3-0 win at home to Burton. Should have been 6 or 7. A mad goalmouth scramble with 7 or so shots as well which didn't result in a goal. Some good goals from us.
Man of the match for me was Burton keeper Max Crocombe though, he had a very good game.
Josh Murphy will be playing/starting regularly, certainly for a while, as other senior wingers Marcus Browne*/ Kyle Edwards are both out until at least January and we now only have 3 left (2 20 year olds, with one on his first loan from Everton, and Murphy). Murphy was excellent and we are...
Agreed you gave a decent account of yourselves. It may have been different if your forward had taken the early chance and I still don't know what he was trying to do with it after a good cross.
Coventry away is underwhelming but at least it is close.
We've signed free agent left back Joe Bennett on a short term deal as cover for Greg Leigh who is rumoured to be out for 5/6 weeks after getting injured whilst playing for Jamaica.
I know nothing about him other than the stats I can see online.
Hadn't Brandon Barker pretty much given the game up? He'll do something brilliant and then disappear for the that and the next few games. Have a good defensive full back behind him as he didn't do defensive when he was with us.
Thought it was a fair result and it was a good watch. We were better in the 1st half and they were better in the 2nd half. Both keepers had to make good saves.
Elliott Moore was excellent again.
