Re: Who's the Rioch to Evatt's Neal?

I do remember it took an age to get the Evatt deal done, although I think that was mainly due to agreeing the compensation owed to Barrow (and I think it was, in relative terms, quite a minor figure).

Re: Who's the Rioch to Evatt's Neal?

Wycombe have been without a manager a week longer than us and still haven't appointed, so these things can take time. I was well up and prepared for Schumacher and there'll be disappointment now if it's not him but just got to trust the process. They have but that's because they identified thier ma...

Re: Who's the Rioch to Evatt's Neal?

Feel free to take the betting odds with a pinch of salt but Schumacher's are going in the opposition direction I'd expect them to go if there were an announcement imminent.

Re: Giving Cobblers the boot? Home to Northampton Tues, 28th Jan 19-45

I enjoyed it far more tonight than I have at home all season.

Defenders asked to defend, width further up the pitch, and a bit of space to play into.

Great stuff.

We'd never have scored that goal under Evatt.

A cracking through ball and a brilliant finish.

Re: Giving Cobblers the boot? Home to Northampton Tues, 28th Jan 19-45

Cogs on, Tutu off.

I do like Tutu's ability to drive forward and beat his opposing number but f*cking hell the rest of his game leaves a lot to be desired.

I’d say tonight has danger writ large right across it. Saturday was ideal. No expectation. A tough away game. Be more compact, kick it long play from second balls.

There's very much the potential for it to be an after the Lord Mayor's show type of night.

SS has just gone to 1/10 - someone must have put £50 on him this evening.

Although this seems promising.

I'm sure that it will be Schumacher unless he turns us down.
The fact he’s clearly had his agent push interest out through the media a couple of times suggests it’s unlikely he would unless we really mess it up.

It could also suggest we haven't exactly been banging at his door.

Re: Who's the Rioch to Evatt's Neal?

Betting odds are pretty meaningless however it is odd that Rob Page has suddenly entered the market at 4/1 from absolutely nowhere. Surely not…. I’m all for exploring options but to me it’s pretty clear. Schumacher is the best candidate and certainly better than the weird fringe options like Rob Pa...

Re: Who's the Rioch to Evatt's Neal?

It looks like it might be Schumacher.

He shot to 1/4 in the betting market, which has now been suspended.

Re: The Three must get cheers. Away to Huddersfield, Sat, 25th Jan, 12-30 pm

The second half might prove to be a more challenging affair and I wouldn't be surprised if we go on to lose, but it's been encouraging up to this point.

We're definitely benefitting from getting it forward quickly.

It looks like we've gone for as physical a starting eleven as we can name.

I don't hate it, to be honest.

Disappointing that he's suspended, but he's a sub now anyway, with Morley and Sheehan back in the fold.

That fact alone makes it that bit more moronic. He finds himself out of favour and then when given an opportunity does that.
