Very surprised. He might fit in at age level against blokes his own size as hes like a small boy playing 1st team. Cant be that bad though if hes almost got a call up, so be interesting to see if he gets in.

Pub league manager couldnt cut it in a pub league. Cant see him being successful anywhere with his confusing tactics and interviews!

Why does he always describe teams theyve just lost to as ‘not the best team’, or criticize the way that team may have played, almost as if theyre Man City and teams dont have the right to come to the shithole and play a tactic to win the game?! Blokes a bloody cretin and i cant believe the gash fans fall for it. On another note, theyre surely putting their finances under pressure this season with all these signings and some relative ‘names’ for that standard? And dont forget the 40,000 locked outside having to live in Nailsea instead. ??

Unfortunately i believe our current No 9, Mr H Cornick, will be this cover. ?

Bell isnt quick though! When do you see him go past a full back and skin him, never. Hes not slow but hes definitely not quick to scare a defender!

Defo. That barge gets given anywhere else on the pitch. Dead cert pen imo ( well, obvs not for us!) ?

Hopefully!

And now another one to add to the crocked list! ??

For only being on a little time, liked the look of TGH!

Joke. i dont care whether it was or wasnt offside, you cant take that long to put your flag up. If he was so sure it wouldve gone straight up. Joke decision

Thats a bit narrow to be fair. We might get done out wide! ?

CONFIRMED!

I dont get the hate on Tanner. I dont see him getting done defensively and yes, going forward hes limited, but lets face it hes had Cornick in front of him who offers sod all as a right winger! We didnt seem to worry too much about RB when Bailey Wright was playing there so i dont think Tanner is playing badly at all to be honest. The team in general are poor. Lack of movement in midfield makes for a lot of the defences troubles for playing out as theyre looking at statues in midfield not showing for the ball.

Whys it crap? Max was lauded for his box command and distibution. he flaps at most crosses ( as he did before concession of the corner for the first goal), and his distribution makes Matt Hill’s delivery down the line look like messi bending one in the top corner. Hes not a top keeper whatsoever. Academy love-in is a joke. Just because a player is from the academy doesnt make them good enough!

So he did his job then! He cant master the other part of commanding his area or keeping the ball on the pitch when kicking though!

Takes crosses better than our Max though! ?

Correct.

THIS!!!! Couldnt have written it better myself. Obviously we wont replace Scott as hes the best ive ever seen in a city shirt, but there just MUST be an alternative to our ageing, slow and ponderous midfield. I’m not even sure i’d play Bell as hes like a small child on the field and gets outmuscled every time he takes a man on. Fed up of the love in of academy graduates. Max is not good enough for us and regardless of the nice storyline of being in the team, we need an alternative.

Agreed. A spot of the early Scott Murray days of running into areas he cant possibly get crosses from. But he turned out ok so lets see! I always wanted us to try to buy Dembele. My god thats how a winger should play. Pace, trickery and scared Tanner to death.

Lets hope McCrorie is a powerful lump when fit. We miss strength, power AND pace. Mehmeti has zero pace also. We couldnt play any slower if we tried and must be so easy to scout and set up against for other teams. Desperately need a couple of big powerful lumps in midfield and upfront as a minimum. If we cant reinvest even £5m of the £25m Scott fee then League One here we come.

Is it just me but the following: Sam Bell’s pace. O’Leary commanding his box and distribution. Neither of these are actually true! Bell couldnt beat an egg let alone a full back. O’Leary doesnt command his box and no way can he distribute a ball effectively. Apparently we have pace in the team. Im aftaid the only player we have with pace is Sykes, yet he cant get a game ahead of the raffle winner Cornick! absolutely baffled.

What a miss.

This was a 0-0 game all day long. Weve gifted them a goal now so lets see how Nige can generate some urgency into our play.

Correct. Hes a nuisance to me as hes pissing me off cos hes slow and shite! ?

From O’Leary’s inability to connect with balls into the box yes. League One goalkeeper im afraid. And to think people think hes better than Bentley! ???
