There’s such thing as track record. Collins had already shown to be poor in the 23/24 season, so dropping him back in last season only for him to revert to type he was never going to get the rub of the green. I do think Rushworth has started poorly but I’m also quietly confident that he will...

I really do wonder whether McSweeney is behind all this (as in, the internal Labour misgivings) as a play to get Streeting in charge.

“bad mistake” errrrrrrrrr……

Mason-Clark has created the most chances from open play in the league so far. Not something I’d have thought tbh.

Looked this morning. 5 saves so far from 12 shots. Not a pretty start but the sample size is still tiny. He’ll be fine enough but I’m not sure he’ll be displacing Dovin (assuming recovery goes to plan).

Actually makes it more annoying we didn’t get a right-sided ‘inside forward’ type sorted during the summer. Yes BTA is doing alright so far this season but if we had a higher-quality player starting in that role…

I get Adge’s point, and many refs don’t show the mental fortitude required to deal with it, but some do. I recall in our FA Cup semi final Rashford went down like a sack of shit, ref just told him to get up and the game played on. Was it Attwell who was the ref that day?

Incorrect, they need to leave him in post for as long as humanly possible 😁

Eze is not a winger. Not sure I’d even have him in the squad. Only contentious pick for me now is Wharton vs Anderson. Rest is as stated by MMB.

I accept this is one of my most mental suggestions, but I’d like to see us leave 7 attackers up at corners.

In which case, I refer you to part B) of my initial post.

Bad time to tell you that Sudanese also isn’t a language? Hence why I assumed (wrongly, as you’ve pointed out) that the ‘Sudanese’ was the descriptor?

There’s your new national anthem right there.

Nope, absolutely no chance this thread is going to descend into sheer lunacy.

Good grief you’re an angry person aren’t you.

A) ‘Muslim’ isn’t a language. B) Must have missed the memo where we went all pure-blood.

It’s probably not quite that drastic. If he doesn’t feature much this season you get him a loan next season. Eccles was 20 when going on loan to Gillingham.

Feels like two separate points. I get the argument to be more stringent on visas for foreign nationals coming from countries who disproportionately display in crime statistics. However, is there any evidence he’s ‘unvetted’? There’s no suggestion in the article that he’s awaiting status...

Fair point, should be white and blue.
