    Palmer

    A midfield of Sheaf-Hamer-O'Hare-Palmer behind Gyokeres would genuinely be the most excited i've been about our midfield since the Chippo, Hadji, McAllister days. Enjoy it in the next few games, I'm not sure they'll all be here by the end of January.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Sadly that’s how I saw it too, a more diplomatic version of Ann’s ‘Over my dead body’ or whatever the alleged quote was.

    Injuries

    It's a pity that Godden got injured but if we go back to the box with Palmer and O'Hare behind Gyo, with Allen as a back up, the first XI is still really strong. More worried about Fadz 4 yellows than I am the injuries!

    Wilson: 5 Looked like he was playing kabaddi for their first goal the way he went out, back and out again and ended up stuck in completely the wrong position. Dabo: 5 Really struggling to get any consistency in his game. 1 minute something great, the next terrible. Back to cuddling Godden on...

    Highlight of the game for me today was Viveash snatching the rainbow laces from McFadzean after he mistook them for sweets and tried to eat them.

    People were moaning like crazy about O'Hares lack of a final ball last year, me included. We've added a player who can do just that. Can't wait to see them play together more often as I believe they will complement each other very well.

    Thought their first two albums were brilliant but their experimental 3rd album was a step too far for me.

    Palmer doesn't need to be doing the 60 metre sprints back to defend, especially in a box midfield with O'Hare or Allen next to him. Perhaps people are conditioned to what O'Hare has been doing for us over the last couple of seasons. But O'Hare is an absolute freak for the defensive work he puts...

    Think we saw there why they benched Wood today. On the pitch for 20 mins, gives a penalty away and got bullied by Gyokeres for the rest

    We haven't had a genuine flair player for a long time and I think we've forgotten what it's like. You have to let players like Palmer try things and experiment. Might not come off 10 times in a row, but you only need it to work a couple of times a game.

    Looks as bad on paper as it does on the pitch! Eccles 22 (CM at RWB) Rose 27 Doyle 19 Panzo 22 Kane 29 (RWB at LWB with 2 mins all season)

    Don't think this ref has been awful by any means tonight but have found it baffling what he has allowed to go and what he has whistled for.

    Can't believe how many mishit passes, scuffed shots and deflected crosses we've had tonight. Lot of room for improvement in our final 3rd composure tonight.

    Fair enough, if you really think that's where the goalkeeper should be at the time of the shot, I won't try to change your mind.

    Wilson didn't move because he was 5 metres left of where he should have been and stuck in absolutely no mans land.

    Wilson's positioning is atrocious for that goal.

    Gyokeres has been very hesitant tonight, taken half a second too long to do everything, including his dive! Much, much better last 20 minutes. Midfield 4 started breaking the lines and causing a lot of problems.

    Hamer looks to be back on regular booking form. Challenging at 100mph and showing dissent when he didn't get a free kick there.

    I know we're all about the clean sheets recently but we're so deep we can't get out of our own half when we do get the ball back.

    Struggled to clear our lines last 5 mins. Some misplaced defensive headers. Wilson going short each time he has the ball though which is a clear change from some of his long kicking in the previous games.
