Their goalkeeper's save from Dapo's header is incredible.
URL didn’t work, Nicko - think I’ve fixed it above

So it didn't. Thanks for correcting.

Oh, and I think we should probably close the season out playing a 4-3-3. It seems to me to be the most natural fit for the players we have currently available to us.

Re: Back on track or up the Junction.? V Crewe away, Sat19th Mar. 3-0'clock.

There can't be many clubs that have scored more late goals than we have this season; it's a really good habit to have. And although it might now be meaningless it's also important that we keep winning as many matches as we can, just from a psychological standpoint - winning mentality, etc. - so it's...

Re: Back on track or up the Junction.? V Crewe away, Sat19th Mar. 3-0'clock.

I think I'd rather Senior started in a back four. In effect, we have two, arguably three, players - Aimson, Sadlier, and Dapo - playing roles they aren't particularly suited to in order to try and acccommodate a 3-5-2 formation.

Rory Burns must be sick. Three test series in a row against the three best Test teams in the world and then he gets dropped while his replacements bat on roads.

Re: Back on track or up the Junction.? V Crewe away, Sat19th Mar. 3-0'clock.

Be Senior in for one of Aimson or Johnston then. Some fairly significant knock on changes with the formation. I have a feeling Evatt will keep the back 3 and just being someone in for Marlon. There’s a pic of Isgrove with one of his quotes on Twitter….I wonder if he’s fit enough to start? I think t...

No round pegs in square holes, please. A back four, as opposed to shoehorning a winger into a wing-back role, would be my preference.

Re: Statement of Capital

I'm unsure why the sneery attitude towards Rashford as well. Some odd folk about. Oh, I'm all in favour of that. 🙂 I'll also be interested to see if his good deeds are still as newsworthy next season when he's playing for the likes of Wolves. This I find odd. He’s done remarkable things. I’ve no id...

Re: To be a Pilgrim..Home v Plymouth Sat 12th March. 3-0'clock.

If it wasn't clear before it's clear now that without Jones the three at the back won't work well enough. Aimson has neither the ability to break forward and create space for Fossey nor the passing accuracy to help us move up the pitch, which is a particular problem in a tactical system that relies ...

Re: Where will we finish?

I would love to see us promoted but I do fear that at this moment in time of team development its not the right time. Good solid promotion season next year will do me. ll admit to thinking similar despite being in line to win a four-figure sum if we did go up this season. The gulf between the secon...

Re: "Not necessarily in the right order" .Home v Morecambe, Tuesday, March 8th, 8-0'clock

It was clear how they were going to approach it before kick-off and it very nearly paid off. We have to either a) get better at breaking the opposition when they drop in, or b) take advantage of the numerous set-pieces we win. I can't express the frustration I feel at how impotent we still are attac...

Re: Are Gills half full pints, or half empty? Away to Gillingham Sat 5th March. 3-0'clock.

The only footage I've seen is Morley's sublime finish so I can't comment on the performance other than to state how pleasing it is to win by such a comfortable scoreline away to a club that might currently be in the relegation zone but which had been in good form under new management. Other results ...
