Re: MATCHWATCH : Wimbledon (a)

Three issues (at least): Our CBs are very poor on the ball - hence when a team plays the high press we lose the ball constantly Our CMs are technically good but weak - see above Our strikers are small and weak - so when we hoof it forward we just lose the ball. Today also our GK was poor - but norm...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Wimbledon (a)

Got to be honest, Richardson deserves a crack next season after a second window and a full pre season to put his stamp on things, so I'm definitely not "Richardson Out".

But I think he'll be sacked with us 12th and playing uninspiring football in October/November.

9 from the play-offs 8 from the drop zone, just end the sodding season now. struggling against teams below us and still to play the 4 of the top 6 at home. wouldn`t put it past us to drop down the table significantly in the coming months. Realistically it's always been about next season. And a few ...

Ascotexgunner I seriously hate this back line. It really is shit.

POC has been a disappointing signing. Him and Lane were probably the two most exciting of the summer and both have seriously underwhelmed.

Had we not gifted 2 goals who a team who hardly score any, this would be a canter. We're not great but have enough.

Sutekh Barnsley being stuffed 3-0 at Bolton currently.
But more usefully is Huddersfield trailing 2-0 at home to Blackpool

Bolton will catch Lincoln in 2nd. Looking formidable.

Re: Rival Watch

In the race for the play-offs, Bradford may well be catchable on current form. Looks like early season momentum running out.

Re: Andre Garcia sold

So the sale was basically win win. If he does well, it probably ends with a decent sell on. If it goes badly, we all get to say the arrogant prick wasn't anything like as good as he thought he was.

Re: Rinomhota CONFRIMED

I guess he was a free agent, then time out for a family emergency. He must be well short of the required fitness level.

Hopefully he's ready in a couple of weeks as I can see him making a real impact in this team.

Re: Ex Royals (No not prince Andrew)

Although eventually we get frustrated with effort over lack of talent. See Andy Hughes I think part of the problem with Andy Hughes was that he was played out of position a lot. although I don't think he knew what his best position was and was happy to play where and how the manager needed him.

Re: Richardson to Blackburn

Not ideal given how much he just got backed in the window, but I wouldn't be that disappointed either. Seems very odd if it happens, I suspect it won't.

Re: Spaculation - Azeez

Millwall rejected a club record fee, meaning at least £15m. If they stay down, you'd think our sell on windfall will surely come in the summer.

Re: The window closes at 7pm on Monday 2nd February

In hindsight, it feels like the summer was just too soon. Not enough of a handle of budgets to run the club, not enough confidence in the manager and coaching staff and not a clear plan on the positions we needed to strengthen, none of which is surprising in hindsight. Whereas we've shown our ambiti...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Northampton Town (a)

Our 2-0 win shows what you get with championship strikers & keeper as opposed to L1 ones.. Northampton’s 2 best chances (1 on 1 just before half time and free head on 85) were very similar to our 2 goals. Marriott and Keane score / JP saves whereas their Cobblers counterparts didn’t. I think on...

Confirmed by the ITK account on Twitter that we're in talks with him.

That account is madly reliable. Don't know if it's another of Brogue's. But did say not over the line.

Re: Play-off/relegation watch.

I wonder if the table is starting to take shape. Lincoln pulling away from 3rd place, Huddersfield have won 3 in a row and are 6 points clear of 7th. I know teams have games in hand, but are not that consistent. Then a 4 point gap has opened up between 15th and 16th, so perhaps the relegation fight ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Northampton Town (a)

GET IN MARRIOTT!!!! I can't remember the last striker this good at finishing. Fozzie? I’d say Le Fondre. Higher level too. Fozzie was a great player for us, but his biggest weakness was his finishing. When Le Fondre, Cureton and now Marriott were/are 1-on-1 you immediately think "goal". N...
