    Dembele was excellent that 1st 45 mins at Grimsby, a real handful. Danny Rose clearly had ability, reminded me of Leon Clarke in some respects in he was a horrible to play against but you'd love him in your team. As for the number 4 of thingy.... unplayable! [emoji6] gonna need to give us more...

    Expectations?

    Be quite typical wouldn't it, our highest placed finish for years and still und up in failure. I'd love another day at Wembley

    I'd imagine he'd be a big earner, doubt we've that much to spare to tempt him here. He's certainly not getting much game time at Doncaster currently

    Expectations?

    Totally agree on what we should be looking to achieve. However I feel there are possibly 3 better sides in the league on current squads. That can all change come January.... for the 3 stronger sides I mean when the bigger clubs come knocking on the door for there stand out performers. Carlise...

    Personally I feel he's burned his bridges here the way he went about his summer exit plans and gentleman's agreement. Turnbull would be 6th choice at best for me, Hyam and Stokes/Grimmer playing in that role are even ahead!

    Expectations?

    We're around where I'd imagined is to be currently, never had us down for the autos as I feel other sides are stronger and better equipped despite MR claims were the best in the league. Hopefully we continue and improve upon our current points return to cement our place in to top 7 come the...

    It's certainly helped as JJ wasn't the best... but I do think Davies is very comfortable and strong in the air. Willis isn't and I'd be tempted to make the transition into the winter months with him at the centre of the plans with Mcdonald as sides go more direct. Willis has been largely solid...

    I'm going with my gut feeling your referring to Kyle Reid? Depends how he parted with MR. Didn't have the desire to stay and fight for the club who got relegated and paid his wages so I'd not be so keen Be a difficult one to call as like you say we don't want to help a rival, tho only issue...

    This is true, Willis didn't take to the right back role and looked a weak link, his positional plays not been the best and looks more comfortable as a central player these days. Filled in tho and did a job. I'd be inclined to drop Jordan Willis and retain Tom Davies, he has shown a little more...

    It's also frustrating that Jordan Turnbollcks is on a season long loan. I doubt Patrick will be coughing up a fee to take him permanently. I'm be doubtful Kyle Reid would be able to attract a fee either with 6 months left on his deal. Maybe his permanent de registration would help more that...

    Another issue is the length of time the window is away... just under 6 weeks. I'm sure MR and TW had some post-it notes on the white board with potential names on but within the blink of an eye everything has likely changed if JJ is done. It's quite tricky I'd imagine managing at this level on...

    Jones Injury

    I take your points, sensible and valid... I just feel a Shrewsbury, Blackburn or someone is more likely to land him than us. He'd fit the bill for sure in MR preferred 4231

    Potential January Additions

    Yes loans is most viable option I'd say, I doubt there is much in the pot or movement to buy players given the SCMP rules and our home gates ain't that brilliant to give much more movement. A bumper 3rd round fa cup tie v a top premier league club would help tho early in January fill that pot...

    I can see MR patching things up and staying with the same formation for this weekend given the little time to adapt to a new formation and then having 8 days to get tactics,player roles drilled in for the cup games and another week till Morecambe so 2 weeks off L2 action to adapt a new plan...

    Jones Injury

    Cannot see it being in L2 tho, low end championship or L1 more likely. I don't think it will be too difficult to get a loan in with similar quantities to JJ. There are plenty of PL U23 sides or championship with a few in. The good news is we've time to do the homework on the players and...

    Some very big decisions MR had to make in the next few days, does he stick or twist with the current system. To stick he's likely gotta play Nazon, McNulty or Vincenti on the right. That don't suit McNulty and isn't ideal for Nazon who's better centrally. That leaves it to the out of form and...

    But MR said he's a 20+ man..... let's hope it's a 80 game season. [emoji6] I'm pretty sure his best spell in Scotland came playing off a big man in a 442 in a more predator role I think the January transfer window may of just got complicated if JJ injury is severe. I can see a influx of...
