Agree with the theory but do think they're being judged on their parent clubs as much as ability sometimes (by myself included). They have played their parts in an excellent run of form, even if they haven't been match winners, and bulked out what was a threadbare squad. 6/10 signings for me so far.

McNally's neck is abnormally long, it's actually 3cm longer than one of Jamie Allen's legs. Between him and Bidwell's hunchback, we don't want to fall foul of the EFL's new rule for next season - from the 2023/24 season you can only have 1 player in the matchday squad who can give themselves a...

He’s got a very inconsistent first touch and against teams that press him he loses that 0.5 a second and looks rushed. He’s also not very agile, which might be his injuries or just a consequence of being injured - too bulky from the time spent in the gym when injured. He looks slow over a couple...

Just catching up with this thread but feel bad for Wigan, seems they've been deducted 12 points in the last hour.

One of the benefits of 3 at the back I think. Always got 2 more centre backs to cover if one makes a mistake.

It’s not just his energy though, his real X factor is his speed of progressive pass. No one else in our squad would play the pass he played to Walker yesterday when Walker was brought down on the edge of the box and their player went off injured. He drilled it 25 metres along the floor into...

That was only me wasn’t it? 🙂 and it was just me sarcastically predicting another 3 days of bickering about his contract. I think Eccles is a an extremely classy young player and I think it’s great we’ve tied him down on a 4 year contract!

Deserved the win overall, we were much better than them. Few sloppy mistakes over the 90 which we weren't punished for and they never really looked like scoring from open play. That said, I have some sympathy for their fans, I'd be pissed off with the ref if i was them. They should have had a...

Hamer got a hand in the face there too when he won that back, reckon most players would just have gone down at 3-1. Godden's first touch was a bit ropey but the finish was excellent. We want 5, we want 5!

On the bright side for Dabo, he won't have very far to walk to the bench when he gets hooked on 60.

We lost all our intensity after we scored. Started to try and knock it around at the back more instead, lost any urgency and yet still had a golden opportunity to make it 2 when Gyokeres ignored his team mates. Unless Hamer plays one of his early progressive passes into feet, it's all a bit...

Oh good, back to another 3 days of arguing about Eccles contract length. :ROFLMAO:

I mean that's another pen and a red card for Hamer, just ran straight into the back of him as he was about to shoot.

Makes Gyokeres decision to not play in Walker or Sheaf look all the worse when we concede like that so soon after.

Mate....gonna have to block you if you celebrate goals on the match thread that far in advance of iFollow....

Dabo really struggling with his first touch so far. Takes all his composure away.

Think Gyokeres is a bit lucky there. Feared the worst when the ref reached for his pocket

Freak injury, head smashed into his own arm .

Sheaf's 100th appearance for us. Hamer, Gyokeres and O'Hare have all gone passed 100 already. We've done well to hold onto our stars in recent seasons. Was just looking through some of my favourite players from the 90s as a comparison to how quickly players were moved on back then: Kirkland -...

Sheaf and Allen come back in. Invaluable experience for Eccles which will aid his development a huge amount. Back to back matches without injury. Plenty of data to work with from those games to help polish the diamond. I think Vik will end up signing a new contract and Hamer will be the one sold...
