Surprised me that MR is only the 21st longest serving manager across the leagues currently. Feels like he has been here a long time, longer than 2 years anyway.

I don't think Dowie ever got out of the mindset of being a player. He was always ridiculously over-the-top elated when we won and went in a massive sulk when we lost. Not saying it was a bad thing but it was atypical for a standard league manager. Never forget that cup game against Blackburn in...

Wouldn't really call being on the bench for a league one side week in, week out a bit part, especially at his age. He's an established member of the first team and Fadz/Rose won't play every game. I think he'll be pretty realistic about his chances and i have faith that MR can manage the squad...

Its a long season. Hyam will get plenty of chances.

McCallum did ok there against Portsmouth and Rose can play there too, plus there is the possibility of Wakefield being fit too. Think we'll be ok.

Pretty certain he will have signed an extension with Villa.

Might not be an injury at all, players routinely use ice just to help look after the joints.

We were playing well, we just weren't playing pretty.

It seems likely that he has, otherwise why would they be sending him out on a season long loan. Just seems odd that its not been publicised. Every contract extension gets reported, tweeted, posted on facebook etc etc doesn't it.

Yeah that's what i've read too. His loan deal expires with us on 31/05/2020 and his AVFC contract expires on 01/06/2020, unless he has signed an additional extension which just hasn't been reported. As i say, it just came up in conversation with my Cousins, they believed a 3 year deal had been...

Nothing on Villa's offal to confirm that he has though which you think they would do with him going out on loan.

Speaking to my Villa supporting cousins last night, they seem to believe that O' Hare hasn't signed the new deal that Villa offered him

I always remember it being good natured though. Maybe it wasn't and I just wasn't aware of it as a naive youth but I don't recall any real hatred.

Maybe that's why the likes of Allesanni and Bosma haven't been in the U23 squad, possibly out on trials ahead of a loan move etc.

Just nipped on their forum to see what they are saying and most seem to think that we are still in league two.

I reckon he'll put McCallum at Right Back with Wakefield on the bench as cover. Baka or Bapaga to come in for Jobello if he's not fit. Which probably means Biamou on the bench.

Think we have leaders in every area now, Marosi commands his area so much better, McFadzean marshalls the defence, Kelly organising the midfield in front of him and Godden making the calls up top.

It's the Kastaneer effect

Looks good for the U23s, if that means anything. I don't really understand whats happened with Allassani. Still listed as being part of the first team but doesn't make the bench and hasn't been playing with the U23s either so far this season. Not gone on loan or been released as far as i know...

Bapaga possibly?
