As to The £5 subscription, it seems to me that those who pay up are subsiding those that don't. Should those who don't subscribe be limited in their input ? Say just 3 posts per day ? Or are there already limitations which I've not noticed ? 5 pounds isn’t nearly enough for this forum. We are really spoiled by a top quality format, free of pop ups and the work the mods do is fantastic. It should be at least ten pounds and contributors should be really grateful for what they have.

Without getting too deep- there's a lot of unseen time and effort which goes on behind the scenes which is unpaid and unnoticed . It amazes me that there are those who post here every day - pretty much yet perhaps feel they are so self entitled that a mere £5 annual subscription is beyond them. 3 Quote Link to comment

Sykes is a round peg in a square hole there. We’ve got two decent young RWBs available for selection. Wilson should’ve started IMO. 5 Quote Link to comment

2015 Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 Worried that side could get bullied in the middle and the right hand side looks weak. 1 Quote Link to comment

Wilson should’ve started IMO. I’d have gone Tanner. Sykes (naturally) plays forward and Wilson plays front foot. With Vyner there I’d rather have the more defensive cover, and would therefore go for GT (Note this is only while Vyners there as I think you need the security). Other than the Vyner vs Klose and RB question it’s the side I would have played last week when James got crocked, so can’t overly complain 2 Quote Link to comment
Nuno Gomes Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 Can someone explain. NP signs 2 RWBs yet plays Sykes arguably out of position there instead? 8 Quote Link to comment
KegCity Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 Two right backs on the bench and none on the pitch. Interesting. 1 Quote Link to comment

I would pick Wilson today, but its also short turnaround from Wednesday, so that could have a bearing. I'm happy with the eleven...I always am...its how they perform that matters.

It's very strange, if it works then i'm happy to get pelters later on if we get a good result, but I am starting to question some of his selections. 1 Quote Link to comment

That odious shit McClean could have a field day down our right today. Edited August 13, 2022 by tin Quote Link to comment

I think Sykes is wasted there, and either Tanner or Wilson should play..........I guess we will see after around 96 minutes who is right and who knows best? Ha! Quote Link to comment

I heard someone had nicked his comb and he's gone off on one but it could be all of the above as well. Perhaps it could also be that both Nige and SL have pretty much had enough of a player running down his contract despite every effort to prevent this and maybe Nige feels that he'd prefer to pick players who want to play for BCFC as opposed to ones who don't and dont give enough on the pitch as a result. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

TomThumb84 Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 (edited) Odd selection in my view. Decide to commit to a formation with high wing-backs, sign the League Two player of the year who is an attacking high wing-back, and play a player who spent all pre-season reinventing himself as a “10” at right wing-back. Sykes and Vyner down the right side it is. I also think Conway is effective when with Wells and has talked about the partnership they have struck up. For me you play both (as I would have today) or neither. Ill take a point there today. Edited August 13, 2022 by TomThumb84 1 Quote Link to comment
