Actually think Wrights the man for this game as their CBs are clumsy as fuck (including Tanganga) and would probably like a striker like BTA or Simms to play against more than a trickier player than Wright. He does need to pull his socks up but hopefully Lampard has kicked his arse since Friday.

It looked like Wright was unhappy at being subbed on Friday, did they show that on the TV?

Might need to start Simms. Wright needs a rocket up his arse. No shots on target in last 3 games.

It’s going to piss it down Tuesday, so not sure this will go ahead

gigs go ahead in the rain, they'll just put a cover over the little stage they will set up in the corner.

I don't know if he was pissed off at being subbed, or at how things had gone. Although he was certainly lacklustre, he wasn't helped by how little he saw the ball.

Ok then we can't afford to rest Thomas.

Think Thomas will be fine. Fingers crossed.

‘Do they have good players’ burrows, o hare, hamer, cooper, tanganga…….lets not get so arrogant to think we’ll beat them 3 or 4-0

I dislike them as much as anyone but they are in a false position

Win Tuesday we go into the break top whatever and hopefully come out the other side with a mostly fit squad.

Even if we lose we will be top due to goal difference

Didnt help that when he saw the ball he gave it bloody away , he was lucky not to get binned at half time

He cant really complain, since returning from the states he has reverted to the Wright we saw at the end of last season.

Sure the travelling and jet lag takes its toll, but he has definitely been less effective.
We need him firing on all cylinders again ASAP.

PVA · 2025-11-02T17:27:51+0000

Keep hearing different things about Kitching - is he suspended or not?

Hopefully not, especially if Thomas doesn't make it.

I didn’t realize Thomas was that bad. Hope he pulls through

Yes, last post being played along with some veteran's.

blunted · 2025-11-02T18:16:27+0000

Kitch can't afford a yellow in this match which is worrying,as we are light at CB with Stoke up next.
Concerned how long our injured players are taking to get back. Torp and Eccles appear to be behind schedule and it has gone very quiet on Rudi.
I think we will find out if Friday was Wrexham being good us us being fatigued.

Not expecting anything else

Yeah, Sheff Utd are poor at the moment, but they clearly have some good players.

We need to be on top of our game for this one I think.

Tommo1993 · 2025-11-02T18:19:04+0000

How don’t you get a yellow when that c**t Campbell is stood in front of you? Good luck, Liam Kitching.

Sky_Blue_Daz · 2025-11-02T18:22:41+0000

2-1 goals from Wright and BTA

First time BTA subbed recently when we needed a goal which supports the bug conspiracy theory.

Yeah. Well sort of. No close up of it, but you could see it happening in the background

Great_Expectations · 2025-11-02T19:14:05+0000

Like most of our fans, I strongly, strongly dislike Sheffield Utd. Horrible club with a tosser of a manager and a group of arrogant players.

Combine that with the shit result and performance on Friday, plus the whole Enemy thing - and it should make for a tremendous atmosphere. I personally think a little tension isn’t always a bad thing.

We have to come out firing and revert back to form after a lacklustre few performances (despite the great results pre Wrexham).

I’d also be very strongly inclined to drop Wright, his anonymous performances are frustrating, but he’s due his one in four game where he’s absolutely unplayable so I think he’ll start. Especially if he has a proper midfield behind him.

Despite the odd rash incident, Kitchings temperament has improved, so hopefully he manages Campbell, as opposed to the other way around - including a fair but absolutely crippling challenge.

We’ll either absolutely cruise it or it’s going to be an incredibly tense 90 minutes, nothing in the middle!

Is Kitching suspended after his booking on Friday? If he is we could be in trouble as Woolfenden is a doubt as he's still struggling to find his way out of Kieffer Moore's pocket

Wright is home sick

Someone was suggesting in the summer that his wife hasn't settled in England and preferred Turkey. But then, there were a lot of nonsense stories in the summer.

No. Only 4 so far in the league. He’s got 6 games to get through without being booked. Thomas, Wright (!) and Dasilva all on 3.

Swear that was another GIMOC classic from a while back.
