Re: Murder on the Orient Express. Home to Leyton O, Sat 23rd Dec, 15:00
Important 3 points. After a comfortable first half the change of tactics by Leyton in the second unhinged us. The dreaded "press" which is our kryptonite. Credit to Forrester, Dempsey, Sheehan, Thomason and Toal who put their bodies on the line to keep us in front in that 2nd half. I am really surpr...

Maghoma dropped for Dempsey. No surprise that for me.

Re: Who opened the door? My money is on Janus! 2024 January transfer thread.
Seems like I am a lone voice on Paris, but he has to show me more to prove to me that he could cut it in the Championship. I have been keeping a close eye on him. He has the x-factor but cannot flit in and out of games as he currently does. I would love to see his passing accuracy and game involveme...

Re: Who opened the door? My money is on Janus! 2024 January transfer thread.
I think selling Morley in January would be crazy. A young player with potential in whom we have invested in, and is still developing. How many of our current midfielders can kick a dead ball like him? He is going through a bad patch now but with patience he will come through it. I am more concerned ...

Re: Going for the full Nelson? Away to Portsmouth Mon, 11th Dec, 8-o'clock.
We wilted under the intense pressure put on us in front of thousands of screaming fans and lost our belief as the game went on. I Hope we can return the complement at our place with a bigger pitch that suits us. They are a proper team and I was very impressed with Yengi. It was a great battle betwee...

Re: Dem Bones, Dem Bones, Dem Bare Bones....
I was starting to get excited about Dan... he started to look like a prospect.. now this happens. While he had not done much before, I was looking forward to his contributions in the 2nd half and feeling optimistic about it. Thanks Ref!

Re: Beware of Grecians bearing gifts. Home v Exeter City, 25th Nov. 3-0'clock.
The quality of most of the goals was breathtakingly high. Thomasson and Charles involvement was telling. If this kind of football continues into January, we will stand to earn millions as a number of our players will be in strong demand from higher up for transfers. Still a month away but be prepare...

Re: No Gooseberries at Shrewbury. Away to Shrewsbury Tuesday 7th Nov 7-45.
Saw the 2nd Half only. We look like a tough team to beat, a far cry from the weak sissy team of last season. Santos was immense. Looked to be the best player on the pitch by a distant. Forrester was impressive and to me will be a first pick over Jones. Baxter is solid. Thomasson was crashing into ta...

Re: Beware David. Solihull Moors, H, 04/11/23, 3pm (FAC R1)
I think we'll see Mendes Gomes feature but otherwise I agree with the team. I'll be upset if we don't, but mildly surprised if he starts. I also doubt he will start. Evatt usually brings back recovered players gently by giving them perhaps 15 mins towards the end. I expect a strong team to start. N...

Re: Jon Dadi….
The formation we play makes Jerome useless. At this age, he is effective only as a point forward playing up front alone where other attackers can run off him. He cant run. So coming on with 20 mins to go as forward, expecting him to press and run into spaces behind a tiring defense is a waste. He ca...

Re: Vale of tiers: Port Vale (A), Division Three, Sat 30 Sep @ 3pm
Big 3 points. Loved the way we dug in. Have we lost the "soft" tag? We really dug in admirably during the 2nd half. Our wingbacks were excellent and Baxter gets better each game, looking now like the keeper he was touted to be. A shout out to big Dan. We seemed to have finally found out how to play ...

Re: Posh do or dogs dinner? Bolton v Peterborough Sat 23rd Sept - 3pm
Credit to the team for showing guts and the posts (I lost count the amount of times they were hit). Terrible tackle by Jones and he deserved the red card. He is a right sided defender and jumped in with his left. Seemed intentional to me. I am so concerned when he and Iredale play at the same time b...

Re: Burn after Reading. Reading (A) League 1. Saturday 16th September 2023. 3pm KO
Two subs were made at the 75th minute that killed the game. Jerome and Iredale. I wouldnt say Jerome is at fault as he was brought on to be the unit up top with Charles for a "tired" player. Iredale needs to find a position and stick to it. He isn't a utility player. The goals all started from his ...

Re: The Champions Go Again! FLT at Home v Salford Sept 5th, 7:45
Took control early over an inferior opponent then went into cruise management. Loved the way we dominated in midfield where Morely and Maghoma in particular dominated. Evatt can make Maghoma a better player by helping him to not panic when trying to shoot near or in the 18 yrd. box, and also teachin...

Re: When is a Derby not a Derby? Home v The Rams Sept 2nd, 3-o'clock.
I said we would play well against Derby and we did. We are a good side. However, we need another Thomasson in the team. It is clear that when he comes off, the middle gets soft. A lot on here are not giving him the credit for the role he plays, only recognizing when he makes a bad pass. His work rat...

Re: When is a Derby not a Derby? Home v The Rams Sept 2nd, 3-o'clock.
Having watched the full replay of the game against Middlesbrough I expect us to give a very good account of ourselves tomorrow. We do have a good team. Our major weakness right now is our defense which is shown up when teams attack us. If we play Toal with Forrester and one of Jones/Iredale we shoul...
