Re: MATCHWATCH : Bradford City (a)

Tbf based on who we signed I’m not especially optimistic And now we are scrabbling around at the bottom of the league it’s going to much harder to entice a player of a sufficient ability to join. Had we been knocking on the playoff door we could have potentially brought in a much better calibre of ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bradford City (a)

No biggie really. Away defeat against a likely autpro side. Couldn't really expect more. The real (and only, so far) calamity was the awful last game, which is still shocking and indefensible. You've obviously accepted that we are a lower end/ relegation threatened league one club, to be honest, I ...

Re: The worst performance since........

Thing is there is a difference between worst performance and worst result, yes, that play off final v Udders was bad but we never lost over the ninety minutes, a positive result usually disguises a poor performance but there is nothing worse than losing with a poor performance.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Peterborough United (h)

Just a tiny bit more enjoyable than catching your foreskin in your zipper, but at least it wasn`t cold. :D :D And if you missed the Carlisle horror show, this was a pretty good imitation of it. Yes I missed that thankfully, i decided after last night I`m done with evening games, at least if we lose...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Peterborough United (h)

I do find the conclusion that this dreadful performance means Hunt should have stayed/wasn’t to blame an odd take. He basically signed half of this side and we’re trying to recover from the mess he left Still can’t get my head round how bad we were, esp second half. But also just exactly what LR wa...

Re: Rumour - Benn Ward

Let’s be honest he’s a non league player in the last 6 months of his contract if we decided to go for him in jan I can’t imagine the fee is going to be more than what, 50k? If that. I know couhig is tighter than a Scotsman but if we want him, and it means we don’t miss out on him surely we would mo...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Blackpool (a)

Ritchie suspended for this one ? Ritchie was booked v Rotherham I think. If that’s correct he will be suspended for this game as it was his 5th booking of the season.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Rotherham United (h)

Seven places higher, yes. Not sure what your point is, you could jump up 5 or 6 places with a win in this league. Peterborough beat 2nd place Stockport the other night. Don't see where a point at home to a team with 4 extra points is a good result. Sure but I said much higher in the table and seven...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Rotherham United (h)

I'm surprised at the negativity here, I actually thought we played quite well. I actually thought we looked a lot better than we had done for a little while. Players getting on the ball and actually driving forwards, instead of just passing it sideways when their path was obstructed by a defender. ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Rotherham United (h)

Interesting reading, I didn’t get to see any of it as I was at work. Overall, a good point against a team much higher in the table than us and one who had not conceded in a while, good to be two games unbeaten in the league under LEAM. I think a lot of the mixed reviews comes down to those who were...

windermereROYAL Just seen, we`re the only team in L1 without an away win, that has to change soon if we want to start climbing the table.

A trend that seems to have haunted us for a few seasons now.

Rotherham have been on decent form and another solid result for them today *Cough* Who they got next? Yes that was what I was referring to - tough game for us that Watched the second half, really dour 0-0, they looked very solid at the back but didn't venture forward much, in fact, not sure they ha...

Re: Rinomhota CONFRIMED

Him and Williams do feel like good signings for this level and give us some depth. It would point to Fraser being out long term Wouldn’t expect him to come in ahead of Abrefa or Yiadom but he might. Think he’ll play in a solid 3 man mid with wing and savage 4-1-4-1 with him behind Wing and Savage? ...

Re: Rinomhota CONFRIMED

Ascotexgunner Really good signing. Could easily sit in front of the back four and let wing and savage go further up. Really pleased he's back, fond memories of that late late goal against Norwich as Carrow Lane.

Carrow Lane?

Re: Players on international duty

Agree - at least half the scheduled games are usually called off. Also agree there should be rules around what counts as a "squad call up" as this time only really O'Mahoney has been involved regularly this season and even then he's largely been a sub recently. But how many of them are ca...
