I'm with Arbury on Gibbons. Our fan base seem to really like him but I think he's ok ish. We need to be looking at better for starting players but if he's cheap enough I don't mind him as a back up to Bennett and the starting LWB.
Brophy looks like a Championship player carrying the ball and a Sunday league player when he has to cross or shoot.
I see the value in him but what is it, 1 goal in 150+ appearances? Only a handful of assists too. That's ludicrously bad for a player who's played as a wide forward for most of...
I hope we'll see a lot of released players but I think there's a good chance we might see more than I'd like retained. I could see us offering contracts to Kachunga, Cousins, even trying to get Bonne back.
If it were possible I'd only keep Liam Bennett, Andrew, Jobe, Rossi, Morrison.
The...
No need to worry about disrespect - we've been very poor the last few weeks, which is frustrating as we looked a genuinely capable league one side for the first half a dozen games.
I firmly believe this is the strongest squad we've had since being back in league one but we've been strangely...
Lots of poor teams this season it seems - Carlisle the worst we've played but we were only marginally better and made a right meal out of putting them away.
Somehow we got worse when we were playing against 9 men.
All of our three 2-0 wins so far have have been pretty much identical - you (Rovers, Oxford, Fleetwood) have the ball and pass it aimlessly around your CBs for ages. We'll nick it, score and then sit back and see if you're good enough to break us down.
Too many teams in this league try to be...
Sold about 400 in advance. Don't know if there were tickets on the door. Radio cambs during the match said the "400+ Us fans"
Edit - it was 390 sold in advance plus whatever was on the day.
I found it very hard to pick a league winner - all clubs seem to have weaknesses or at least a question mark over them. I went with Bolton in the end but they don't seem anywhere near the quality of the three promoted sides last year, or arguably even as much quality as Bolton had.
League one seems completely different this year to the last few. Much less quality up the top of the league but probably more quality down the bottom.
I'm struggling to pick a winner as all the big budget sides have flaws or question marks over them. It's also hard to make a case for which...
Yes. I liked him a lot in the early days - very pacy and I felt he had a lot of potential. For some reason though he went backwards massively in the season just gone, was pretty ineffectual whenever he played.
Previously in league one and two he was a danger, scored a few (not loads) of goals...
Williams has been really good for us. He's unfortunate that we've got a promising RB in Liam Bennett that's come through and Williams is too good/expensive to stay as back up. He'd be a top league 2 FB
Yeah, Jones will definitely be off. I suspect our retained list will be pretty small when it's released later today. The only guarantee will be Liam O'Neil getting a new contract.
It feels an opportune time to reflect now, with our good friends at Burton Albion, about the fun we had in April 2009.
Last day of the season.. you threw away a lead against Torquay to lose 2-1, when you only needed a point for promotion. So distraught were your pals at Cambridge that we...
Can FGR return to being shit please? You're screwing up may acca.
Speaking of shit, Cambridge continuing our awful run of form but at least we've equalised through a penalty.
