Fantastic signing. Unbelievable player and a joy to watch. He brings a calmess to the rest of the team with his retention and availability for the ball and links the play so well between MF and Def. To top it off seems to carry a good personality too.
I really like Dovin. I'm sure though when players are dropped from the first team, there are supportive conversations held and this is where the value of good management and coaching comes into it. I doubt players find out on the day nor whether it comes as a shock, it will likely be done with...
Yep this was also the game where we switched away from 5 at the back for the first time in however long and our results transformed over night from that point. Simms came on as a sub on the right, we started playing the ball in front of Simms into space for him to run onto and looked very...
I'm sure Robins praises the team plenty behind closed doors. I don't mind how Robins discusses strengths of the opposition in interviews. Indicates he isn't underestimating any teams and there's no complacency. I just think he is being realistic as every team in this league can be dangerous on...
Agree with bringing Simms in. Although I think trying Simms wider could work and he has looked dangerous in that position and where there is space for him to run into with or onto the ball. If you look at a few of his goals at previous clubs, he seems very effective from that position.
I just...
The club usually announces once there are no more ins or outs on a deadline day so I suspect they are trying to do something.

We aren't going to go the whole season without injuries. Bringing in these players ensure we avoid / reduce both player burnout and remain competitive when those injuries inevitably happen. There will be players who will start on the bench and then probably get a run of 10-15 games starting all...
I like both Da Silva and Bidwell but they offer different things. I feel like we've seen the best of Da Silva when used as a sub so far. His footwork and ball retention is usually very good and he offers an attacking option when we need to turn it up a notch against tired opposition. I would...
I seemed to notice more than normal last night how brilliant he was at receiving and controlling the ball. Passes were being flown at him at height and pace from all over and he just seemed take the ball down from his chest to his feet without any disruption to his run or movement.

In my opinion other teams "will" likely waste lots of chances that we did. And they do. That's why games aren't 8 -0 week in week out. Our team aren't the only ones, it's about taking 25 / 30% of those chances and we will be alright. What probably looks like easy chances from the our seats up in...
This is quite sobering. While it's healthy to have views and opinions on how the club is run at various times ( positives and negatives), I think when reflecting on the fact that some clubs no longer exist is a reminder that we should try not to take having our club along with the emotions...
