  1. A tough game made a certainty by a calamitous keeper, he should never have been first choice after TK was back fit and should have been dropped after his most recent mess ups Unless Leo is somehow even worse this guy shouldn’t be playing again
  2. JDT has to take a lot of blame here, Pears is poor yet he keeps playing him even when we had a perfect opportunity to change in the international break
  3. I’ve long been a defender of Dolan as felt he’s had some unfair criticism before but patience is wearing thin now. I’m loathe to make assumptions but going off his Instagram he’s gone from a young lad desperate to succeed in the game to someone who is loving the footballer life style. He got the England youth call up, got a goal but since then his stock has dropped massively and if he is hesitant to sign a new deal I’d question what advice he is getting as I’d be shocked if there is a better move in the offing than what he has here Needs to step up now
  4. Gally would have had a hat trick tonight
  5. And that’s crap goalkeeping
  6. Offside but good save that to be fair
  7. The worst one I can recall is when we went 3-0 down in the first half with Jake Kean, Murphy and co having shockers, someone came on at half time and tried to rally us, David Jones I want to say but we still lost Cant remember the opponent (Yeovil or Posh maybe?) but an absolute shocker
  8. I know Whartons languid style is part of his charm but that attempt at a block for the first goal is pathetic. No reason not to get more behind that. Pears got lucky with the shit parry earlier in the second half but the 2nd and 3rd goals were shocking by him
  9. Positives sound like we now have the solid rationale to drop Pears; and at least the long journey home will be in comfort in the coach
  10. At this point 5-6 In the nets it’s an unknown quantity but seems a reasonable trade off, the issue is the assumption was we cashed in on TK to reinvest the money elsewhere which did materialise. Defence we are weaker in terms of depth and future potential but Hill may be decent for a year. Tronstad looks to be a squad player, solid and steady perhaps Moran and Sigurdson seem like sensible additions and the ones that could be difference makers and I am confident Ennis can chip in with a few goals, the lad from yesterday is an unknown and will be a bonus if he contributes. The first question is if they can replace the contribution from Dack and Diaz. The second is more important - can they improve on it as standing still isn’t progress! Ultimately it feels like a missed opportunity, £5-6m brought in for TK and Ash Phillips and only £1m or so spent
  11. Nsangou looks like a talent there, his movement with the ball on the last move in particular I can’t work out if the video is ever so slightly sped up or not
  12. I think his pass to Travis was the perfect weight. Trav’s legs just went as he’d busted a gut in the move. He similarly linked up play brilliantly for the Moran chance
  13. All the best to you and yours mate, goes without saying the thoughts of everyone here are with you
  14. Superb result, shove your xG up your bum! In reality apart from one superb block, one off the bar and a couple of decent saves from Pears we were never truly under the cosh Thankfully their new forward looked like a big lump Not many vintage performances but a classic away smash and grab
  15. Lucky it’s only 5 minutes Surprised people blaming Gally he made the right run the pass was just too slow Gally has helped swing this in our favour here
  16. Agenda - lol Decent save that you’d expect your keeper to make
  17. Sorry to say but Wharton has been abysmal on the ball, got us into trouble several times
  18. Huge slice of luck for Pears and us there but it stayed out that’s all that matters
  19. What a goal! Gallagher showing that he’s leaps and bounds ahead of youth strikers and then stunning from Hedges
  20. Get Moran off he’s been useless!
  21. We look moments away from a self inflicted goal, too many loose passes around the back
  22. Dolan is having an 8/10 in our own half but a 2/10 in theirs sadly
