Re: Looking forward
Hall needs to go on loan next season . He needs to be playing regular games. It's alright lennon slating his lack of professionalism but he's a young kid and probably desperate to try and impress . I like ream as a footballer but agree that he seems to have an issue with his mentality at times but h...

Re: Forsooth, is that a tractor I see before me ?
That shots on goal and possession stat stuff can be a bit misleading dsb. One of the most effective away teams in the championship at present is Leeds and they statistically get mullered every week.

Re: Forsooth, is that a tractor I see before me ?
Which is why they play for a mid table championship side and are not currently being scouted by Chelsea as John terry replacements . Real quality centre halves are like gold dust these days . Just ask arsene wenger and take a look at the laurel and hardy pairings at city and united and those are pla...

Re: Forsooth, is that a tractor I see before me ?
In general though we seem to be signing players of more potential. Coke was an emergency signing due to more injuries and perhaps due to slavchev simply not settling . Yeah, in general I agree: Bannan > Garvan, for example, and to answer your earlier question there's varying degrees of promise in J...

Re: Forsooth, is that a tractor I see before me ?
NL was doing fine until he lost Pratley and LCY. They haven't been replaced like for like have they? NL was doing fine until a plethora of injuries unsettled a settled team with multiple loan replacements and youth players coming in as stop gaps. We don't have a settled 11. NL was doing fine until ...

Re: Forsooth, is that a tractor I see before me ?
its not really a time to judge lennon's signings ( well loans ) but they at least seem more ambitious and have more potential than what dougie used to bring in Bit simplistic. If offered, I'd swap you Coke and Slavchev for Dawson and Jutkiewicz. As usual the truth's less binary. Completely agree th...

Re: Forsooth, is that a tractor I see before me ?
We're at least beginning to look competitive away. Lennon did well to sort the home form out as quick as he did . With so many injuries its not really a time to judge lennon's signings ( well loans ) but they at least seem more ambitious and have more potential than what dougie used to bring in. Had...

Re: Wigan, away.
Only Blackpool are worse than us away but we are looking better . Wigan gave Watford a game yesterday . I suspect 0 0 or 1 1. Not sure where our goals will come from if alf isn't over his bug .

Re: Forsooth, is that a tractor I see before me ?
Was trotter bad tonight ? Sounded like we matched them and both sides missed a number of chances . Not seen the highlights but comments about their goal sound like hall lost it upfield and ream didn't deal with the cross. Did the shot deflect off trotter ? Not sure he was at fault but when he plays ...

Re: Looking forward
Perhaps they'll let us borrow him for a year . Toughen him up a bit , we could look after him for them. I'm sure he wouldn't get injured .

Re: Forsooth, is that a tractor I see before me ?
There weren't many druggie picks out there tonight and it didn't sound spineless to me . Again unlucky that cravies missed and we conceded late but I reckon away results are coming . The thing is we need a cravies type away from home. He does miss chances but if you think back to the days of beckfor...

Re: Forsooth, is that a tractor I see before me ?
Miles better than expected , rochinha sounds a find and we are finding a way to at least be competitive away from home even with half the regulars rested . Got to see it as a positive . It'll all come good in the next away game . Even trotter may have had a half decent game .

Re: Forsooth, is that a tractor I see before me ?
Le Fondre out, replaced by Woolery on the bench That can't be good , hopefully minor stuff. Woolery could trouble them if he gets on and gets a run at their leviathans . It's quite likely we will end up with a curious pairing up top as I doubt the plan is to keep cravies on for 90 and gudjohnsen is...

Re: Forsooth, is that a tractor I see before me ?
At least he's kept the back 4 pretty much intact . Slavchev much be booking a flight home by now . Won't be pretty with trotter and coke in the middle but I expect they will spend the game trotting back and forth watching the ball sail over them and looking for scraps . I suspect we will be playing ...

Re: Forsooth, is that a tractor I see before me ?
Well I've backed us to get beat so I've done my bit. Team news should be interesting . It's also been interesting to note the odds shortening on an Ipswich win once it became known that we were resting a few . Not sure how much room for expression there's likely to be . It's your big standard mick M...

Re: Forsooth, is that a tractor I see before me ?
If we make a game of it , it'll be a bonus . Tough on those players trying to prove themselves in a makeshift 11. Will certainly be a test of character .

Re: Looking forward
I suspect next season will see us start with none of our Premiership experienced players. Mills and Wheater will be released as will Bogdan, and Mavies could and probably should depart. We might just keep hold of Tim Ream. If we look what Bournemouth have achieved with a squad of League 1 players, ...
