Re: Rival Watch

Fifteen points is the entire points spread of the league after fifteen games (for most). :shock: This time last year the gap between 1st and 24th was 24pts and the team in 17th was 8pts off the play-offs (so not much different there) Does seem the big difference is no one appears to be running away...

Re: Rival Watch

Hound It’s certainly a very even league this year. No one outstanding at all - but also the teams at the bottom are relatively strong as well

I could see a side getting relegated with >50 points a team getting into the play-offs with <70 points.

Re: Rival Watch

12th to 18th, the teams below us are having a good day. But still 5 clear of relegation zone. In addition to Stevenage losing, Bradford, Wimbledon, Lincoln and Stockport are losing. It's easy to deride the likes of Savage for suggesting top 6 given our start, but it's definitely an open league. Ple...

Re: The Manager Sack Race/Merry-go-Round

Interesting that Edwards wants to go to Wolves. I think their squad is shocking, he'll lose most games and almost certainly get relegated, and that Middlesbrough have a better chance of being in the PL next season. But I guess the immediate lure of the PL is strong, and if he somehow keeps them up i...

Re: Players on international duty

windermereROYAL Wigan game off.

With this and no FA Cup 2nd round game, Richardson has plenty of time early doors to implement his ideas and get some players working on their fitness.

Re: Opposition fans back from the game - 24/25 page 225 onwards

Reading are a has-been club, on the way down. We are on the up even though we lost tonight. Two and a half weeks to get these two, recent, poor results out of our system. Then we go again...not the end of the world. More lessons to be learnt by everyone and we'll come out fighting again. COYB I rem...

9 more days until Wigan. Lots of training ground time so hopefully can build upon this.

Re: Randell Williams and Andy Rinomhota

Been training with us long? Good players and useful experience to bring in, but will surely be well short of match fitness.

Re: Poll: Recruitment

Hunt definitely shoulders blame, unfortunately. When asked his ambitions, it was always about good characters. I don't think he had a clear plan on the playing style and identity he wanted, and that meant the club didn't have a clear recruitment strategy. Imagine Selles were still here - you would k...

Re: Poll: Recruitment

The CF really is the unforgivable one. We sold Smith in January and had to make do under Dai, but it should have been top priority once the owners arrived, like the O'Connor signing at CB. Even if Wareham had stayed, he was not a top 6 CF (though he's better than O'Mahony). How did we get into the l...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Carlisle United (h)

Yeah it's been a bit of a come down since the Summer, the transfer business seemed solid, nothing spectacular but it seemed good enough but for whatever reason, the majority of the signings just haven't worked out and yeah, the loan signings have been pretty abysmal, would agree with sending them a...

Dai's final f*** you

Let's be honest, a lot of us on here have made seriously unfunny jokes about the "L1 reset" being just what we needed, whe actually it very nearly delivered that. We had a good team and good manager. What happened today, our slow start to the league season...it can mostly be tied back to o...

Re: Dear Leam

Did you watch it out of interest? The feel I got was that it was a fragile team that did the job, then ran into a striker in fantastic form who ran them over in the last few minutes. I'll admit I followed online without watching, but there can be no excuses for failing to see it out from 2-0 in the...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Carlisle United (h)

It's fair to acknowledge we're a tough gig for new owners and CEOs. I'm not going to say we're a "big club" etc., but objectively we're at our lowest point in 25 years after a decade of consistent decline. It's hard to come in and shake that off, while fans have learned to be naturally cyn...

You really want an Ince style interview where he used to throw players under the bus.....I hope he does. Especially Jakob. Ince was calling out their lack of talent and ability, today was about a lack of standards you expect from professionals. Very different. Call it out, go hard. Make everyone kn...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Carlisle United (h)

One positive at least we still have a football Club to moan about. After today I wonder why we even bothered to save the club. Clearly the new owners or players don’t care as much as us. How long will it take to get us out of this slump. But I'm pretty confident it'll be a hell of a lot quicker tha...
