  1. I genuinely hope Campbell does well, not for him but I think his failure will set back potential Black managers as he will he used as an example of box ticking, that said he really isn’t helping himself is he: “I know Macclesfield fans will probably think: ‘What’s going on here?’” he said. “But you’ve got an international footballer who has been one of the best players in the world coming to your club. I think there’s a nice mutual balance there. There is give and take.” I’m not in the loop enough to know if there is an issue with BAME folk getting less opportunities and it needs addressing if so, but Sol (like PETA and their militant vegans) does more damage for the cause than good and makes it into a laughing stock
  2. I tend to agree that whilst it would be brilliant to be challenging this season in reality it’s a building season and Tony is working long term. With that in mind I really think having invested so much in Brereton we should be playing him and developing him rather than the cautious approach so far, if there is any position to throw young lads in it’s up front as goals can do wonders for them. I can’t see us being in any real danger but also feel being overly cautious won’t do us much good in the long run.
  3. I imagine Mowbray will go ‘back to basics’ meaning trying to be as safe as possible so something like Raya Nyambe lenihan mulgrew Williams Bennett Evans Smallwood Conway / Reed Dack Graham I wouldn’t play Conway myself but I think he might, for me we’ve been that bad that we may as well gamble a bit and throw Brereton and Rothwell in 4-1 v Preston 3-1 v Wigan logic dictates a 2-1 loss, the good news is we should draw the next one 1-1!
  4. I promise it’s not always this bad! Hope you at least enjoyed the trip a little bit!
  5. Just now the bit of magic he has is missing, he’s been stumbling around a bit recently, literally tripping himself up. Hes got the quality no doubt just hope he’s still here when he finds form again
  6. Minor thing but Dack really shouldn’t be trying Zidane Roulettes in the centre circle 90 minutes into a game we are losing 3-1!
  7. Why is it that when we win we end up hanging on with teams streaming at us but when we lose we don’t ever look like making them sweat?
  8. Dack is gone either his head has turned or he’s gone full David Bentley
  9. Cracking defending delboy
  10. Armstrong went up top. Think he’s still on but not sure he’s been diabolical again!
  11. I don’t think so, he isn’t immune to criticism and deserves plenty at the moment but the stability he’s brought is potentially better than the next Venky fiasco
  12. It’s as bad as it’s been under Mowbray with one of the most baffling subs you could want to top it off Pre game they were obviously scared and started by kicking us around then realised we were awful and decided to just go and beat us
  13. Dack just went far too deep then literally walked up to get back in position, looks fed up I do think his head has gone
  14. The commentator just called Smallwood Bigwood and it’s the best thing to happen in this game
  15. Clearly not a defender!
  16. Bloody hell Rodwell that was doubly terrible
  17. Once again Nyambe seems to be our main threat
  18. Williams on for Graham wtf of all the subs to make
  19. It’s awful but we aren’t at the point of seeking for Tony’s head, not for a good while yet! Armstrong should be off for Rothwell and get Brereton on for Evans or Smallwood
  20. This is actually appalling - AdamRochina must be struggling to contain it!
  21. Our heads are down Windass just saved us there!
  22. It all came from a promising move for us culminating in a shocking lazy pass from Dack
