    Thursday transfer thread

    Boooooo, don't care about football, only off field stuff.

    Could be worse

    I was shocked when the promotion favourites signed him. Awful, awful player and a dickhead to boot.

    RCC - 6 - missed punch and did not attack other crosses, but saved us at the end with the one on one, great reactions and speed of his line. Willis 7 - no idea what that cross field pass was, but solid performance. Ricketts - 6 - struggled a little with Pope, but good commitment towards the end...

    Based on tonight's performance, who in our team hasn't been too lightweight?

    Reid and Jones need to come on to add some attacking impetus. I'm sure McCann will be a stand out while he's here, but based on the first half, I'd prefer Stevenson. Poor poor half, we truly look clueless. Such a disconnect between midfield/attack. I hope any potential signings aren't here.

    A few physical tackles and we look intimidated. No worries though, our main heading outlet is off injured and I'm sure his replacement will be just as good in that role....

    Good to hear - I was basing my comment on the earlier post that stated three changes.

    Seems a bizarre team selection, Reid/Jones were out main threats on Saturday and I would have thought McCann would be a starter. Perhaps it's fitness related. I hope the replacements have a stormer, but it's a surprising line up, especially as it previously appeared as though pace was key to...

    McCann to make it all click, Reid and Jones to scare the defence with pace and trickery. Willis to score from a corner. 2-0 City. Fuck the Council.

    A sneaking suspicion..... (Monday Transfer Thread)

    Positive signing in every way - he can come in and make an immediate impact, while simultaneously being a LT signing. It also once again indicates that TM is building a squad, which gives hope to the fact he sees himself here after this season and that we will have a team to support in the...

    food again

    They still have a Purity bar, but it's more than half decent!!

    The new formation and potential problems.

    I agree. I partly get the impression by bringing K Thomas on TM was attempting to introduce a plan b, using a target man. Granted it's a half way house, as we need a genuine plan b in terms of tactics/formation, but at least TM recognises that. Plus in all fairness, based on yesterday's bench...

    Dominance for 45 minutes but nothing to show for it yet. Everyone is performing well, Reid is particularly lively and Stevenson/Ghadzev are composed once again. I'm sure there's lots more to come, but based on the first 45 not sure Page deserves the start ahead of Haynes. We find that killer...

    Surprised at Haynes decision, but Page is purported to be the better player. Quite excited by that team.

    I would stick with the same team as Tuesday, bar Jones for Thomas. By all accounts Reid isn't fully fit so bring him on for whomever of the three strikers isn't performing at 55:60 minutes. I'm unconvinced on Haynes overall, especially defensively, but he deserves to keep his place after...

    Ben Stevenson

    Bags of potential. Seemed very composed on the ball, which was especially difficult today against a pressing team. Good passing midfielder. Certainly has the ability to dictate games as his experience and confidence grow. Only question mark may be his physique, hard to tell from the stands but...

    George Thomas -whats the point

    I mentioned the same thing in the match thread. He doesn't seem to add anything to the game. I thought his main strength was pace, but that's certainly not the case based on today. I don't like criticising our own players, especially youngsters, but he's just a body at the minute and should not...

    Poor performance. Few moments of intricate passing, but I literally mean a few. Stevenson looks composed but lightweight, Vlad looks like he could run a game but not involved enough, Harries was looking good but a few silly errors in the last 10/15. Lameires is trying but he needs movement...

    I don't like being critical of our players, especially youngsters, but G Thomas has absolutely nothing about him.
