Exactly, the reason given for replacing Nige was that he wasn’t getting the most out of the squad at his disposal, & the new guy would this season. Now all of a sudden it’s, well what do you expect he’s not got his own players, and wait till next season, when he will have had the opportunity to have a pre season. The suits are already trying to change the narrative.

The difference between Tom and Ian, is Tom knows what he’s talking about, Ian just thinks he does, oh and shouts a lot.

I envy you, I can’t see it personally, maybe I’m just being negative after last nights performance, but at the moment it feels they exposed how weak we really are, it felt like a wake up call.

To me I found the formation baffling, it just seemed like we put out our best 11, many of them weren’t playing in their best positions, players just shoehorned into positions that they aren’t used to, and not playing to their strengths. Rather than choosing a formation and fitting players into unfamiliar roles we need to start choosing a formation that allows our players to play to their strengths.

The truth is we were awful. It was men against boys. We didn’t deserve anything out of the game and we’re very lucky not to be on the end of a cricket score. I understand they have more quality than us, but I at least expect us to compete, and last night we didn’t. We need to regroup fast and start to do the simple things well.

I agree, they were also the targets set, which by the way were met. My question is what is the plan now, what is the target this season?, and what is the target next?, also what do we judge success by for LM? , because from where I I’m Sat they seem to be vague and changing. Is the target this season top 6, top 10, top half, I’ve no idea. Apart from, its a work in progress, or words to that affect. I’ve also got absolutely no idea what the hierarchy’s expectations are for next season.

I would have thought the chance to play at a higher level and earn more money would trump any thoughts that Scottish scouts may, or may not, be drawn to watching us because we’ve got two potential Scottish players playing for us. I happen to believe he’ll only not sign if he’s a chance of playing at a higher level. Of course that would also impress Scottish scouts more as well.

I actually can’t wait for Friday now, looking forward to a guy running on from the crowd, putting in a pin point corner, for Dickie to rise up and plant a header in the top corner.

Agreed, plain and obvious is the phrase that gets overlooked, if they stuck to these principles it would be fine.

I noticed on Mcororie’s first start, there were times you could almost see him consciously playing within his limits. Not making forward runs etc, each game his levels improve, but he’s still not up to full speed yet. Once he does I think he’ll be one hell of a player, such a shame he has been out for so long.

Christ, that’s one hell of a wait

But playing in an empty stadium if your photo is anything to go by.

We want 4

When was the last time we scored 4 away from home ?

No it isn’t, the question therefore is, Who is Henry ?

If, as is hinted , you actually bought your Mrs a vacuum as a present, the only thing that surprises me is that you are still alive to tell the tale.

On your reckoning then how many upgrades do we need? , you say we’ve 6 ok players and everyone else needs upgrading ?, surely not.

Gerry Gow, Merrick 2nd, Cheese but not for long enough really to compare as we’ll never know what might have been. Whilst we’ve had many exciting players over the years, all the really good ones have left to achieve their goals. for me the best of these are Cole, Webster, and now possibly Scott. At a lower level two of my personal favourites are “Smudger”, and “Super Bob”

Trying to completely change systems, mid season to something not suited to the players we have, when there was no need to, is the biggest problem imo.

Any others anyone https://hd.espnv2.online/40/0/championship-f/10 doesn’t work for , thanks for trying though

Must be carrying an injury, wasn’t he taken off against Norwich as well ?

We all hope that obviously, I wouldn’t hold your breath though.

Until covid the pies and pasties were very tasty and not too expensive, I used to regularly have one, even that they were a bit expensive at least any profit would go to the club. Since though they have obviously changed their suppliers and they’re awful. I’ve noticed the queues have reduced as obviously other people feel the same.

Excellent post, spot on.

You know what, I think you’ve found the reason there are so many ACL injuries these days, I bet they don’t use deep heat!
