Re: No fools in April. Away to the Pies, Tuesday April Ist 7-45.
I suspect we'll be keeping Randall considering we'll still be paying for him in 2027. I agree with Dave in that whilst it's not been the most auspicious of starts for him, I'm not particularly worried. I'm not too worried either, but the ball is in his court as a professional, not us as fans. I'm n...

Re: No fools in April. Away to the Pies, Tuesday April Ist 7-45.
I believe Randall was straight down the tunnel last night and didn't join in the celebrations Feck him. If he's struggling to get his head around the fact we're not really accepting of his style, or lack of physicality then that's his problem, not ours. As the saying goes "put your big girl pants on...

Re: No fools in April. Away to the Pies, Tuesday April Ist 7-45.
I don’t agree that it was a bad performance. Wigan pressed and ran hard in the first half making it a scrap. That happens in derby games, but I did think it looked unsustainable for them and I think their plan was to nick one when they were at full pelt and then spend the rest of the game in their o...

Get in there!!!!! Deserved it for a dominant second half. I genuinely thought there’d be 12 minutes added time. How relieved I am that there wasn’t!!
Beautiful!!!

Re: No fools in April. Away to the Pies, Tuesday April Ist 7-45.
Fair play to Wigan. Cutting off supply and limiting space / time through sheer hard running. If we go behind here, that’ll change and they’ll just sit in and waste even more time. It’s absolutely crucial we score the first goal.
Which means we won’t. Obviously.

They’re lucky to still have 11 on the pitch and I’m presuming they’ll make a half-time sub.

Re: Loan Watch 24/25
So we've only got 1 player on loan in Step 1? Suppose it makes sense considering where we were a few years ago, but thought we'd have a few B teamers playing National League

Re: A tall order. Away to Blackpool , Saturday Mar 29th 3-0' clock.
When you have inverted wingers who can't go both ways the ball will naturally shape towards the keeper. Doesn't matter how many you sling in. If you've got 1 striker in the box and you'r curling balls towards the keeper, you've got little chance. Morley put 2 fantastic out-swingers in. First one Col...

I can't be arsed looking as stuff like that bores me, but what were the players wages as a total for that period?

Re: A tall order. Away to Blackpool , Saturday Mar 29th 3-0' clock.
Without wanting to appear too negative, I’m also struggling a bit with Schön. Busy and energetic, but seems to lack quality. Especially in the attacking third. Another player I like, but is running out of credit with Schumacher I imagine. Been in and out of the side under the new manager, but when h...

Re: A tall order. Away to Blackpool , Saturday Mar 29th 3-0' clock.
Cracking day out was had, despite the result. I thought we played pretty well. But when you concede goals with such ease like we do, it's almost impossible to go away from home and win games and pick up points. Unbelievable miss by Mendes Gomes in the second half and their keeper made a couple of ou...

Re: Division Three, 2024/25
That is a surprising change. Thought he'd be looking up, not down, in his next move. Are Gillingham well backed? Do Shrewsbury have a few financial issues or half the squad out of contract?

Re: Schumacher’s super white army
Baxter used to wax lyrical about Evatt & Gilks and how much they've developed him and how much he loves playing for them etc etc.. Maybe he's just a brown nose. Maybe he's smart enough to say what the fans want to hear It's always easy to say nice things when the managers put you in the team It's al...

Must say I'm surprised about Baxter. Was convinced he was off and that was the reason Southwood was being preferred. If he wants a new deal, get it done. That's fantastic news

Re: Taking Stock; A visit from the neighbours. V Hatters, Sat, 15th Mr. 12-30.
Don’t get the rivalry thing to be honest. Not sure I know any Stockport fans although my MD’s lads both played for them and he watched them when they did. But it feels like a big game. The sort we used to lose, but can now look forward to being competitive in. Horrid record against them, but records...

Baxter, CMG, Randall, Forino, lolas, Jones, Matete haven't got much of a run recently. Southwood, Toal, Tutu, Morley, Thomo, McAtee, Collins, Cogley could all get a rest for the important game on Saturday. I dont expect Schuey to make more than 4 changes to the starting 11 for continuity, so which ...
