Cherry Blue Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 1 1 was a fair result. Positives are Dacks back and we held well with a player short. Negatives are Kaminski error, Ayala's red card and return of Big Ben. Vale was rubbish but JDT will play him again & again as it fulfills his develop players policy.

NeilInBristol Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 JDT on Jack Vale: “It’s a difficult position. “It’s not easy to play as a striker, particularly in this league with good player “He’s still young, 21-year-old, not experienced at this level, but of course we all know we need to develop players to create value and be sustainable over time" says it all 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweaty Gussets Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 On Markanday: “He felt not 100 per cent yesterday so we didn’t take any risks with him. “We trained yesterday in Birmingham, he came with us, but he felt something and wasn’t 100 per cent so we didn’t want to take any risks.” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But can't complain when the ref shows a 2nd yellow there, player should know better when he's on a card. Expect two red cards a match then if players are getting booked for that. It wasn't even a foul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But those who were watching on here have described his performance as lazy, so not sure what job he was doing for the team. Supervisor perhaps... He wasn't doing anything for the team. Like I said earlier, when Ayala was sent off Carter came on in his place and Vale went off. Nothing changed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubts we will see him feature against Birmingham next Sat (if fit). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riverholmes Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 3 hours ago, J*B said: Jack Vale. Not big, but not small. Not quick, but not slow. Not skilful, but capable of a trick. Not a poacher, but can finish. Not strong, but not weak. League Two at best. Not a lot of options at the moment but there does seem to be an inconsistency with the relative treatments of Vale and Burns, who has fallen way down the order. That said, neither have shown enough on loan and Having given Vale the nod, it makes sense to give him sub appearances to try and reach the necessary level until an alternative is found. I guess the next in line is Leonard until we bring someone in, unless Markanday can do a job there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I want Vale to do well, as he's our player - and he has shown small spurts of quality. However, the rest of the time, his decision making looks a second off the pace, which shows in his late choice of pass and over-dribbling attempts. Also lightweight and weak on the ball. I hope that JDT is making a point by playing him - ie who else do we have to choose from? Not too disappointed with a point from today's game. Ugly match, had hoped we'd done enough at 1-0, but 1-1 is ok. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraserkirky Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 (edited) Still absolutely furious with Kaminski, if Pears did that he would be up for castration. thought Buckley and Morton had decent spells in the game. Vale completely anonymous, this isn’t his level, get Undav in asap. Hedges, Pickering and Wharton all having better games. Dack always a goal threat. Need some signings asap. JDT again too slow to sub, should have had Gallagher on for Vale at half time. Ayala is always a danger to go on a yellow. Fair result in the end.

roversinmyblood Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 (edited) We need a centre forward who can rough up opposition centre and create opportunities for the likes of Dack etc. Our big forwards are total pusses and are not up to the task required.

Miller11 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 A couple of good crosses went in today, Brereton should certainly have converted one of them. I don’t understand why we don’t do this more often. Overall though we didn’t get into their box often enough. The one time Morton took a bit of a gamble and committed in the box, look what happened - Dack was superb for the goal, started and finished the move. We’ve got some effective players, but they seem to be playing to specific instructions where scoring goals is very much a secondary objective 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markanday's a winger. I have seen Markanday a few times for the U21s. Believe me he is not a winger. His main asset is a good shot. More could be made of this asset playing him through the middle, rather than on the wing. As you have changed the question, JDT could try a partnership of Dack up front with Gally.

chaddyrovers Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 26 minutes ago, Mercer said: Yes, an outstanding manager/coach would want to bring in his own players. However, an outstanding manager / coach would also set the side up to get the best out of what he's already got and adapt tactics accordingly. We are uninspiring, boring and IMO, worryingly, for the large part, don't even look interested. Are these players even playing for JDT? To me, today's performance only confirmed many things we already knew - Buckley is vastly over hyped and over rated, Morton couldn't direct traffic, Hedges needs to play on the left side of our team and Vale is like a little boy lost. Kaminski now seems to have developed the yips (high on my recruitment list would be a goalkeeping coach with credibility and proven coaching ability). Great to see Dack regularly playing again - still our best player by a country mile, let's just hope he doesn't get p1ssed off with this shambles. What a series of bizarre comments here. Of course the players are playing for JDT. You say this shambles but we are 4th in the league yet people on here are calling it a shambles or JDT should go. 5 minutes ago, booth said: Markanday's a winger.
