I’d like to see us on the front foot and offensive. Ideally from the start but if we have a solid defensive first half and come out all guns blazing second that’s just as good. We look a much better team when are attempting to play football and be attacking, as opposed to being over cautious to...

Definitely looking a lot more dangerous now. I think we’ll nick this; Biamou special. As I said before; Walker is definitely showing he can be an asset, and I’m pleased as wasn’t convinced thus far. He still has a while to go, butabsolutely positive signs.

Benefits of wing backs immediately evident

Negatives Passing has been way below standard. Positives Starting to see glimpses that Walker could be an asset We’ve looked solid at the back.

Disappointed with the same of shape and (on paper) it looks defensive to me. I also worry about the lack of width, especially if it is a back four and therefore the full backs won’t have as much license to get forward. But something needed to change and MR obviously believes this is it. A...

I’ve got an hour to get a very awake and excitable 15 month old to sleep so I can watch the game in peace with a few ales..... No chance with the 2 month old, but she can’t move and can be easily quietened with milk, so she has no choice but to watch the game with me.

Predicting a victory tonight. We have shown all season that we are more then capable of competing when we play our game, don’t play with fear and are not intimidated by the opposition. Those signs started as glimpses but have increased the last few games, and were it not for individual...

Thanks again. I wasn’t too far off them, 30 miles running and 30 on the Peloton will be the weekly aim, although I can see myself slanting that to favour running! Plus, as you say it doesn’t take into account other considerations, the Peloton doesn’t tend to be about distance rides but other...

Thanks Travs. I currently run around 40 miles per week (other than a few lower weeks last month due to having a newborn in the house!). I don’t ideally want to drop that, but if I want to incorporate Peloton then I know I’ll need to. So I want to try and establish a rough estimate for my new...

My partner bought a Peloton bike a little while ago and has tried to get me to have a go, but I’ve never really been that interested. I have never enjoyed spinning and much prefer to be out and about. However I gave it a try last night and surprisingly quite enjoyed it! I want to keep up a good...

Definitely going to be a tough one tomorrow and I don’t think it’ll make good viewing for us. Their squad, never mind their team, is another level to the majority in this league and on paper they should walk it. However cliche as it is, we all know that football isn’t played on paper. The...

Weren’t you signing off this thread nearly two hours ago as you (and ‘nobody’) cared about it?

Are you that pissed off Biamou played well last night you’re now attempting to get some attention on this thread?

Completely agree. Foolish to write him off based on his age and relative lack of experience. Of course there are better link type players out there, but none that we could afford/attract that would be any better than Max. He’s the only striker in our squad capable of playing that role and his...

Fantastic result and a much improved performance. Well done to MR for recognising the system wasn’t working and changing it - exactly what we were calling for as fans. Satisfying to see ridiculed players like Biamou and Shipley playing well and contributing to the overall team performance...

That team is fine, the two surprises are Shipley over Kelly (assuming a flat three in the middle) and McFadzean being dropped - seems bizzare to me. That’s zero experience or leadership in the team. Still, I’m pleased we’re trying something different and I really really hope Biamou proves the...

Difficult team selection tonight, as the box got us promoted, playing great football and the players are familiar with it. However, it isn’t working thus far. That’s in part due to the players showing too much respect to the opposition and us not playing our football - the two are linked in my...

You should also include each time one of the usual boo boys is slated. Take two sips everytime McFadzean, Shipley (albeit he was awful Tuesday) or Godden are slated. And neck a drink if one the favourites is praised/escapes criticism despite making mistakes/hiding, namely Hamer and Dabo.

I started running first thing in the morning during lockdown on nothing but water (only included coffee/porridge if doing a half), so I guess essentially a fasted run; I always enjoyed it more, it felt better and was a great start to the day. Since baby number two arrived and paternity leave...

Sheaf has improved significantly from a very bang average midfielder to one of our best players tonight. That’s after only a few games, so hopefully that trajectory continues. Ostigard is an improvement on Rose and should start every game. MR hasn’t had a full strength squad to choose from...
