    Juke - not going down too well....

    Not really silly we are a selling club unfortunately always have been to survive - the three players you have listed on our books would not fetch a million like Juke has which is a good price and good business which has been proven by the stick he is getting from Boro fans at present and the...

    Juke - not going down too well....

    Said it when he went and have not been proved wrong providing we got a decent price for him was excellent business decision. Our results have significantly improved and Middlesboro's have gone down the pan since the transfer not all a co-incidence surely. Don't get me wrong Juke gave his all...

    Well deserved point today

    Well I did say I had a feeling that we would get something today at Watford and thankfullY i was proved right. I quietly disagreed with quite a few ever the pessimist views that we would get hammered never thought this would be the case. Overall the draw was the fair result but I am slightly...

    The trouble with putting Bigi back in team

    I do not see academy games I have to admit but do not see him mentioned much amongst the goalscorers how many goals has he scored for academy this season? If he is attacking mid personally would have expected him to have banged more in at academy level?

    The trouble with putting Bigi back in team

    A bit of me think that following injuries and award we should pitch him in as his confidence is high. However I am not entirely sure where he fits into team and what his best position is, there seems to be a lot of conflicting views on this? Can he fit into a standard 4-4-2 if so where? Can...

    baker out for most of the season

    Now Baker being out while he was in form is a blow.....however I still do not rate him overall and doubt he would have put on a third good performance anyhow. It is time for our other Mr Inconsistent Bell to turn in one of his rare good games now just as Baker has done in the last two...

    Doncaster a big concern?

    Hmm some of our founds are strange.....not concerned about their "fantastic" result.....did nothing for their goal difference keeps us within three points of them with better gd.....if we beat them at home and are within that range we go above them.....simples! Also did we not also draw with...

    Four home wins?

    1. Yes we can win all four they are all beatable but not sure we will, can see us slipping up in one or two of those games - 8 to 9 points is what I expect we'll get. 2. Hmm not sure 42 points will be enough but do not think we will need 50.....45 points I reckon will be ok this season. 3...

    How the Hell........

    Good to hear he produced the goods today, I have to admit would personally have started one of the bench players ahead of him before game started but I did say hope he proves me wrong and get a hattrick at the start of this thread! Hell if I knew we would get three points on Saturday I would...

    How the Hell........

    Hi Chaps, It seems I stand corrected about Baker.....I have to say I am glad I was proved wrong....can he retain level of performance in terms of consistency till the end of the season though? Despite his performance overall the result was a little disappointing.....need to try to get 3 points...

    How the Hell........

    He's not or ever has been a right midfielder he can't cross for toffee and his success at Stockport was from playing just behind the front two not out on the right. Are Clingan, Thomas & Christie not right footed....would rather see Christie there pacier and can deliver?

    How the Hell........

    Ha Baker made it into the start xi the bloke is totally and utterly useless! :( Clingan, Thomas, Christie, McDonald......all should have started ahead of him!!:facepalm: Can someone explain why he starts ahead of those and why he is better? I sincerely hope however he makes me eat my words and...

    Joe Murphy...WTF?!

    I think Murphy is a decent solid keeper who has got better as season has gone on and has made some crucial save to preserve/win us points. My one gripe is sometime he parries forward rather than pushing to the side away from goal. he was not to blame however for the woeful defending for first...

    Clingans view on his penalty miss

    I certainly did not think the penalty was the worst to be fair to Clingan....keeper guessed right and saved well, sometimes you have to give the goalie credit. I agree Juke's penalty that is still rising if we do go down will be far more costly but there are a lot of juke lovers on here. I...

    Eastwood

    How can he contibute currently if Thorn does not start him in xi.....or bring him on from the bench for more than 2 minutes though in fairness? :facepalm:

    For those who suggest we are not playing more kids than anyone else i.e. Derby

    I've reached the conclusion some on this site are morons...it has taken me a while. DonGonzales makes part comments to prove his point but not the whole truth.....and then complain when people lift part of his stupid comments to prove it......This is before we took Nimely & Norwood as...

    Eastwood

    Definitely not done what he had the capability to do which is a shame. Was his lack of fitness shocking - Yes but not convinced this was the whole story tbh. Has Thorn let himself down by not bringing him on for longer for at least the last two or three games? Undoubtedly shown with this...

    How big does a squad need to be?

    I was not stating our 30 was perfect by a long shot - but I think the problem in a sense lies in the senior players that make up the 30. Also "experience" does not always relate to minutes on the pitch entirely. Cameron & Clarke are not fledglings and have played enough minutes over the past...

    How big does a squad need to be?

    I think going back to the original thread a squad of about 30 should be sufficient inclusive of youngsters and we are not too far off that. 3 Goalies (2 experienced, one young) - Murphy, Dunn, Ireland......sort of there would like a better no 2 but there you go 10 defenders (6-7 experienced...

    Stewards at Reading

    I got a letter pre-game stating something like ticket may have no bearing to where you actually sit? When I got to game was told I could sit where I liked so no problems or anything different then what I expected to be honest. If people told they can sit where they like cannot really expect...
