Re: Summer 2021 Transfer Thread.
I know signing out of contract players is viewed as being folly (if that's the right word ?), but surely we need to be looking at bringing in an out of contract midfield player this week (tomorrow !). Someone like Adam Clayton just released by B/Ham surely he is relatively fit having only been relea...

Re: Not the only Wanderers..v Wycombe away 20-Nov 3-O clock.
noted Toby Brittany was engaging on Twitter last night promising signings. I saw he was saying "keep the faith" or some such. Where did he promise signings? I've just had a look and he said 'remember where we were this time last year. keep the faith' but I can't see anything about promising signings.

Re: Not the only Wanderers..v Wycombe away 20-Nov 3-O clock.
We make the same mistakes & keep conceding the same type of soft goals week after week. We keep putting ourselves under pressure by the keeper and back four playing this tippy tappy sideways & backwards football which slows everything down in regards to tempo & intensity, and a lot of the times they...

Close DSB, not quite Bok ! but good attempts chaps....a clue is that it ends in hole.

Re: Summer 2021 Transfer Thread.
With Sheehan done for the season, MJ out and Baka gone for up to two months, January is starting to look very different. We need to do something before January. Because how many wins can we get before them with Lee as our only midfield player? Thomason not good enough and Johnston a poor centre hal...

Re: Summer 2021 Transfer Thread.
We lack lads who will drive the rest of the side on to battle, but that doesn't mean the lads we have can't scrap . We have players who will do that, but who need the tone setting - preferably by a right nasty bastard or two at the heart of the team. There's a real "baby out with the bathwater" thi...

Re: Not the only Wanderers..v Wycombe away 20-Nov 3-O clock.
This will be a heavy loss IMO regardless of the poor run that Wycombe have been on - I would suspect 3-0 Wycombe at least.

Then he goes on to say "But I think the group in general is short of leaders, but the right leaders and the right types of leader at the moment we haven't got those and we're trying to give them personal development to increase their leadership qualities." I agree with him, he's right. We can call ...

Re: Summer 2021 Transfer Thread.
IMO as a minimum we need 6 in January. We need a new keeper as Dixon isn't good enough, big enough or commanding enough for me, a RB, a big powerful no nonsense hard CB, 2 x central midfielders (one big aggressive tough DM & a creative midfielder) and a least 1 x striker hopefully over 6ft tall who ...

Re: FA Cup 1st Round Replay..: Stocky Tony’s County Away..Stockport replay Wednesday 17th live BBC 2

Re: Will This Sinking Ship Go Down With The Crewe? Crewe Alexandra (H) 12.11.21 8pm
Great win that tonight even against a poor Crewe side (under some pressure although only from the likes of me !), so well done IE and the team especially 2nd half - as Nicho said we do need to move the ball quicker from back to front but much better that for me.
We can now all enjoy the weekend.

Re: Will This Sinking Ship Go Down With The Crewe? Crewe Alexandra (H) 12.11.21 8pm
We all know what happens when we play teams on bad runs, Crewe have only won one game all season and are bottom of the league - we are & have been for a while the gift that keeps giving. I really hope that we win but with our shambles of a defence & with Doyle needing his customary 6 clear cut chanc...

Re: FA Cup 1st Round: Stocky Tony’s County (H) Sun 7th Nov @ 3pm
We decided we didn’t need our leader and fighter. I don't think we did i.e. the supporters, was it not Evatt who decided that we no longer needed Sarce ? Evatt has now resorted to his bullshitting post match interviews, he thinks that we bossed the game from start to finish and that it was just two...

Re: FA Cup 1st Round: Stocky Tony’s County (H) Sun 7th Nov @ 3pm
Not at all bothered about the cup, however this team has no leaders, no characters, no fighters - all this tip tappy slow shite with the centre backs needs to change, its dire / rubbish it just lets the opposition get back & re organise. Our football apart from the odd minute or two a game is slow a...

Re: FA Cup 1st Round: Stocky Tony’s County (H) Sun 7th Nov @ 3pm
Baptiste just awful, ball watching & letting his man go with absolutely zero effort - shambolic defending as it has been almost all season. What the hell do they do in training during the week. Our defence look like they don't give a shit, everything is so half hearted.

Dixon should be saving that, very poor goal keeping to add to the usual shite defending.

Re: Contract expiry
I think all these contract extensions are excellent news. Lee has earned his in spades so far this season and his experience and character will be vital for the squad. Jones is a good player to have in the squad at any of the three levels we could play at next season, as is Williams (who probably e...

Re: Pompey and Circumstances...V. Portsmouth away Sat 30th Oct 3.O'clock
I don’t think it’s anything to do with style. Everyone has been seemingly happy with project Evatt. My guess is Evatt lost his rag post Sheffield Weds after we’d failed to convert the possession into a win and some players took the hump. And then his post match comments which reflected a man who’d ...
