Re: Not the only Wanderers..v Wycombe away 20-Nov 3-O clock.
It’s lousy but we still have the players to make it work. It will be tough on the likes of Lee but that’s just the way it has to be. Obviously any more go down and we’re stuffed but it’s not realistic to consider bringing in players who aren’t fit with January so close. I might make an exception for...

Re: Will made to measure suit us? V Burton at the Unibol 8-0'clock Monday.
I think we are more incisive and varied in approach this season. There's more willingness to be direct. Last season we were guilty far too often of possession for possession's sake and I felt the exciting football thing was exaggerated based on a handful of games. The style has evolved from what I'...

Re: Will made to measure suit us? V Burton at the Unibol 8-0'clock Monday.
Well I think I’m going to have to just agree to disagree with the majority on here on Doyler’s contribution. I never actually said he didn’t work hard, just that he was ineffective. Personally I don’t want him running all over tiring himself out, I want him in the six yard box scoring goals but las...

Re: Will made to measure suit us? V Burton at the Unibol 8-0'clock Monday.
Maybe I’m missing the point here but I really don’t agree with criticism of the crosses. Last night we put in some seriously good crosses but nobody got anywhere near them. That’s our problem, whether it’s low and blocked or high and we lack height. Doyle is a good player when he has space but for m...

Re: Will made to measure suit us? V Burton at the Unibol 8-0'clock Monday.
I just don’t see in Doyle what you do Insane, I’m really sorry. Last season he only actually scored 12 goals from open play, the rest were penalties. That’s not fox in the box stuff to me and one of those 3 this year was also a pen. Tonight he never got into the game and when he did get his big cha...

Re: Will made to measure suit us? V Burton at the Unibol 8-0'clock Monday.
Absolutely excellent performance tonight and with the chances we missed, especially Kachunga, you can’t just blame the ref. Yes the goal should have stood and yes it was a penalty but we should have won this game comfortably. Once again Doyler never got into the game and if I’m being honest, he sho...

Re: Will made to measure suit us? V Burton at the Unibol 8-0'clock Monday.
Need to be winning this with tougher games to come or we could be in the doldrums end of the month. No way I'll be happy with a point. (Unless we were 3 down with 10 to play :D ) My feelings on it exactly Lever, if we aren’t looking to beat the likes of Burton, then who do we expect to beat? We sho...

Re: Summer 2021 Transfer Thread.
Not-so-young-anymore Sturridge - free agent :) This is a strange one, you’d think Sturridge would be quickly snapped up by a Championship club but like Wilshire as well nothing has happened. Are they expecting more money than people are prepared to pay or is it just an anomaly that maybe we could t...

Re: Will made to measure suit us? V Burton at the Unibol 8-0'clock Monday.
We've played Burton 5 times lost 4 and drawn 1. So our record could be better. Its a tough game though tonight but hopefully we have enough. Sheehan's a miss but we'll find out whether Lee makes us a bit more solid I guess, or if we look a bit more like last season without the goal threat two rovin...

Re: And a Po(r)t o Vale, Papa John please. 7-0clock Unibol.
I don’t see an issue on Monday, Lee comes in for Sheehan and resumes his very successful partnership with MJ and Gordon fits in nicely in place of John. In fairness I’ve been really impressed with Gordon and if John’s struggling I wouldn’t mind seeing him get a run of games to gain more confidence a...

Well it doesn’t appear on the clubs website, nor the BN site so if true they’re keeping it pretty quiet!!

Forget the likes of Sturridge and Wilshire, neither are coming here and hopefully neither is Joe Dodoo. I f we’re going to bring someone in they need to be better than what we have or what’s the point? Let’s just stick with what we have, get the injured back ASAP and see what happens in January if ...
