Strange non event match in the end, game over after 5 minutes thanks to a red card and penalty which then became a training ground knock about after that.
Should’ve been 5 or 6 at least but for some wasteful play. A shame the Salford ‘goal’ wasn’t given last week which could/should have had us...
Firthy in disagreeing with the majority shocker… Good signing for Cheltenham, agreed that ability wise he’s probably our best defender the flip side he is hilariously slow almost as if he’s permanently in quick sand.
Signed with glowing reports stats wise from Exeter but I was never massively...
Last weekend we had our goal not given because all of the officials failed to spot the ball being miles over the line, tonight we have a LeBron James tribute act assist let go (to name just one example) that helps determine the match; it’s fine to say Notts deserved the win/the lead at that...
They offered little yesterday going forward all bit were strong in defence. Curtis Tilt refereed the game from the back - goes down, free kick, sly pulls/kicks, play on Mr Tilt, carry on.
Look out for their players dropping to the floor from nowhere roughly every 15 minutes so the rest can all...
The most frustrating thing about this is that everyone saw it coming a mile off. I’ve posted a few times how we’ve gone for quantity over quality at centre half and nothing has changed my opinion on that.
The Critchlow deal this summer, if it was ever an option, was frustrating because that is...
Gillead has fallen through the cracks by failing to nail down one position and instead he’s become this jack of all trades master of none winger/centre mid/wingback where despite having the best engine in the squad, great attitude, never stops… he’s not starting in front of more specialised...
It goes without saying that this signals a departure that’s just stating the obvious but other than Smith it’s unlikely he’s better than any of the alternatives he’s replacing, to the extent that which ever striker leaves we probably have enough cover anyway without this signing and still have...
Hopefully he can play lwb and centre mid, as in the places we actually need strengthening but tbf you can never have too many 6th choice strikers in on loan.
Really pleased with the win at MK, had that first game/side yet to gel opportunity and managed to take advantage. Continues the theme of last season of going unbeaten at the likes of all three promoted sides, I think that’s 5 wins in the last 6 down there now.
Having quality on the bench felt...
The squad is more than capable of Play Off’s which is where I’m convinced we’ll finish, as ever there’s four or five bigger spenders with bigger names and better depth, which is why auto’s feel beyond reach.
My main worry is balance, we’ve got an abundance of very good CAM players, the worrying...
Jake Young £500k, Vadaine Oliver £860k, Colin Doyle £2.3m, these valuations are fair and accurate and would tbh explain why we can’t shift anyone, “no Mr Sparks I won’t pay a million pounds for your fourth choice right back”.
Two predicted starting 11’s above without Jamie Walker, I just can’t see it; fitting in Walker/Pattison/Sarcevic/Kavanagh/Young/Pointon… is crazy depth considering we have no central midfield or left back.
