Re: When is a Derby not a Derby? Home v The Rams Sept 2nd, 3-o'clock.

If that’s Jones at LCB colour me extremely worried. Also surprised and disappointed not to see Maghoma starting.

Re: Snog, Marry, Avoid: Summer 2023 Transfer Window

I don't think John and Sadlier were going to add much. But I would have liked them replaced. The thing is Evatt bought them. We are at the point where he is discarding aside players he has bought. Whilst that is natural as the club progresses we are still in league one. The question to be answered ...

Yeah, but were John and Sadlier turning up on a Saturday? Mostly not.

Re: Snog, Marry, Avoid: Summer 2023 Transfer Window

I can only think that they are saving the funds until January, either that or the new perimeter LED screens, the new scoreboard and spruced up hospitality suites are costing more than anticipated OR we are skint and that's the reason the club were desperate to shift Sadlier & John - to reduce the w...

Re: Snog, Marry, Avoid: Summer 2023 Transfer Window

Whilst I’m happy that John and Sadlier are gone, and I don’t think we needed to directly replace them, we’re terribly lacking in depth at wing back. If either Randy or JDC get injured we’re fecked.

Re: Snog, Marry, Avoid: Summer 2023 Transfer Window

Evatt exclusively plays a wing back system, but we only have two wing backs in the squad (excluding the outcasts). This strikes me as not being ideal.

Last year Plymouth started with 9 pts from 5 games, and lost 5-1 to Charlton in their fourth outing.

Re: Snog, Marry, Avoid: Summer 2023 Transfer Window

If by close of business tomorrow we end up in a situation where both Sadlier and John remain with no further additions, or both leave and there are no further additions, I would be pretty frigging concerned. I struggle to imagine that Evatt and Markham aren't looking to bring in at least one more wi...

Pretty sure they said it was going to be used for infrastructure improvements in addition to playing staff.

If Evatt has said that the only incoming signing this week is likely be a reserve keeper - what on earth has the bond money been
spent on ?
Does it need to all have been spent in one transfer window? I don't think they ever promised to do that.

Re: Snog, Marry, Avoid: Summer 2023 Transfer Window

Thanks, DSB. I haven’t been paying attention at all, but some of those signings are pretty eye catching. Some of our peers are certainly getting stronger.

Re: Snog, Marry, Avoid: Summer 2023 Transfer Window

I'd be quite surprised if we don't end up bringing in at least one more outfield player. I thought it very likely that we'd try to repeat our success with Trafford and Bradley by taking promising youngsters from 'Big 6' academies, and maybe there are still some of those deals cooking. Of course, per...

Is it right that post game Evatt said the only incoming would be a goalkeeper (if Coleman is out for a while)?

Re: Old foes at Home. V Middlesboro in't E.F.L Cup. 7-45 29-08 at the Toughsheet..

Would be very risky to play Sadlier & John tonight. Not just in case of injury; with their lack of positional covering, a Championship side would kill us on the transition. Alternatively play them and give them a chance. If they don’t perform well they’ve had a chance. If they do perform they might...

Re: Old foes at Home. V Middlesboro in't E.F.L Cup. 7-45 29-08 at the Toughsheet..

Ah well, guess I'll be watching some Netflix bullshit with the wife tonight then. As for the game, it will be interesting to see whether the lesser spotted Sadlier and John get run outs. On one hand I would be quite keen to rest Randy and JDC, but on the other, if we do see Sads and Dec, it might su...

Is it on Wanderers TV? Looks like it's audio only. I think only the first round of the cup wasn't shown last season. I'm away for this one so didnt expect to be able to catch it. Sucks there's no stream though. I think I vaguely recall League Cup streaming being a victim of the new expanded EFL TV ...
