Re: MATCHWATCH : Burton Albion (h)

Last time at this level, we had a really "meh" first season, followed by a dreadful start to the second which resulted in Pardew replacing Burns and an improvement. Then we were strong 3rd season and just missed out, but didn't sell anyone and strengthened again so we were formidable in t...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Burton Albion (h)

I forgot to mention Daniel.K, the guy is super fun to watch and probably our most fun player since Jimmy Kebe and Gilksy!! However, please. please ,please someone give him some shooting practice.....not from 15 or 20 yards but from 3 yards out with an open net!!!! How many sitters has this guy naile...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Burton Albion (h)

I enjoyed that! We controlled the game much better and our passing was more accurate and maybe at more pace than recently. Burton are no mugs and you can see why are middle of the table and no longer bottom feeders. Finally, a big shout out to Fraser who i thought had an excellent game and his passi...

Re: 40 years ago today...

Stood under the clock with my dad great game Yep, also went to this one with my dad (Sadly passed on now) and we always mentioned this as our best game ever at Elm Park, however, it probably was the worst 65 minutes followed by the best 25 minutes!!! :D With regards to scenes and limbs it was proba...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Peterborough United (a)

Not sure it will be same line up, both Williams's went off injured today. Yids didn't look right either, he also was replaced. Keen to see how Burns does in a more settled side. He's talented enough to do well for us. Agreed, he had a few mistakes in him early on however, that was probably down to ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Plymouth Argyle (a)

The sending off changed everything and clearly rattled Plymouth for 10 mins and credit to us for taking advantage of that! Plymouth showed they are a decent side and with 11players we would have struggled. A win is a win and my only gripe with today was that we really should have had at least 6 goal...

Re: Rumour: Ryan Oné

I've never heard of a Scotsman's surname with one of those silly little squiggles over his surname? Surly his name should be Ryan McOne :D Whatever his name, it's a no for me, to similar to the MoM signing. I would like us to follow up on that guy from Ross County up in Scotland as he has a proven g...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bradford City (a)

The annoying and worrying thing for me is we sack Hunt and probably rightly so, form wasn't great, the style was boring and the fans were turning. We get a new manager in who knows this league and has a good pedigree in this league yet a month in and we are playing no different than when Hunty was i...

Re: Rival Watch

Blackpool's win at Rotherham last night means that the 3 sides in the bottom 4 who played midweek all won. This means there is just 6 points between 10th & 23rd. Feels like this will be a 50+ points needed this season and we are certainly not too good to go down; we've been relegated from this ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Peterborough United (h)

Our passing out of defense was terrible and that includes the keeper! and the rest of the passing was bad also!!! Sorry but passing a simple ball from A to B should be the very basics for any pro footballer!! you would like to think basic triangles are a given every day in training so why are we so ...

Re: Who should be starting LB/RB?

Abrefa is at the right age where he should and will only get better so would be my first choice. Yids is at the opposite end of his career and coming on as a sub and using his experience to see out games is key, however, age is tough on the body and he will now be in a slow decline towards the end o...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Blackpool (a)

Our record against this lot is pretty dire, so time to take a leaf out of Rotherham's book and shut up shop and play on the break! Rinhomota has had three weeks now to get fit which should be more than enough for 60 mins so start him in DM in a 4-1-4-1 formation and see what happens. Would be a grea...

Re: What to do with the troublesome AM role?

Slightly random choice for me, if Kelvin E is needed up top, probably Matt Ritchie; he has the intelligence to arrive at the right time, the range of passing and the close skills. Lane could get there in time, although his confidence (and fitness) looks shot. In terms of what then happens with the ...

Re: What to do with the troublesome AM role?

Personally I'd stick Kyerewaa in that hole. When has he ever demonstrated the passing ability, movement, decision making or temperament to play a number 10 role? Movement and temperement, every time he's played. He's one of the consistently few players who show for the ball, run all game and try to...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Rotherham United (h)

Really surprised Rhino didn't get some game time, if you're on the bench then you must be fit enough to play? Would have thought with 30 mins to go and with us struggling to get anything going that would be an ideal time for him to sit deep and break up play allowing Wing and Savage to get forward. ...

I have a feeling we might win tonight! Leam and his team have had a week now to work with the guys and get into their heads, yes a week isn't long but enough to get a few basic ideas over to the players. All these injuries may well put us into our backs to the wall mentality which some how we've thr...

With our medical department getting busier by the week along with this insipid performance today i really don't fancy the gaffer on this one. Normally you would like to drop a few after such a performance, however, he really might not have much of a choice to choose from, so should be interesting. ...
