Has anybody else noticed that when the ball is played in behind Webster he seems to just jog back towards his own goal instead of sprinting. For Bradford's first goal when Murphy came out, he just seemed to nonchalantly stroll back and he did the same when Lowe scored his second at the weekend...

Is everyone using a 4-4-2 formation or do you have your own preferences?

I think another issue is that due to Presley's clear out (which seems to have been the correct decision), we started the season with one recognised centre back in Willis who had very little first team experience. Jordan Clarke was drafted in to a position he doesn't play in at a professional...

Is Loza not on a youth loan? That means he can play for both reserve/youth teams during loan period. It is difficult but with Manset not fancied by Pressley and Maund still learning, we need the extra bodies and the fact that Loza hasn't made the Norwich first team yet means he's more likely to...

Agreed, if we had another 'head the ball' defender, such as Aaron Martin, we would never have got anywhere near Wells yesterday. He's doing ok this season and I think he will continue to improve. It's one of the reasons that Wilson has had so much joy this year in this division, because he tends...

Not heard anything to follow that up but was slightly concerned when Pressley brought in the head of youth devlopment from Hearts t the team a few weeks ago. Could be something in this.

I don't think Moussa nor Baker are natural wingers but we don't play a style where they are asked to beat their man on the outside. They tend to be more involved in build up play from a bit deeper, if anything you tend to see Adams and Christie on the overlap crossing from near the byline.

I thought apart from the miss kick he had a reasonably good game. Watching him live I got to see more of his movement off the ball and I think he reads the game reasonably well, especially as it is not his oiginal position. The first goal was a bad mistake to make but Murphy didn't help. He...

Player of the season : WILSON for me, been some good performances from what i've seen and heard but his emergance as a regular in the team has been my highlight Suprise player of the season : Jordan CLARKE at centre back. From being in the bomb squad, to coming back in and making the centre...

Alright, just a bit of fun and away from the off field troubles. This is referring to on field performances ONLY. Nominate a player or give a score out of ten in each subject for player/manager performances so far this season: Player of the season Suprise player of the season Disappointing...

I just played Clarke at centre back and retrained him for the position too. Christie was woeful for me too. On the BETA version I played the new owner offered me some leverage for wages and I managed to give Wilson and Thomas new contracts. I've also had a nightmare getting loans in, clubs not...

Well what a waste of fucking time that was!!! Got as high as 12th mid season, around the time the club was taken over but was told there was no money for either transfers or wages and was already 15k over the allowed wage budget with the squad we already have. Didn't lose any players all season...

Did you see the replay of Wilson's goal from behind the goal? As Christie's cross got to the keeper, Clarke turned and put his head in his hands but Wilson followed it in and got his goal.

I thought Barton did ok, he was trying to slot into a team he's not been part of that play high tempo passing/pressing football so it was not gonna be easy to walk in the team. Add to that it's an FA cup tie away, I think he did alright. Wimbledon pressed us well and stifled us first half but...

What formation is everyone using? I started a game on the Beta version and went with 4-4-2 with with a pressing game. Started off well enough but couldn't sign anyone and ended up having to use half the youth team because the team was exhausted. Wilson was scoring plenty and Webster was awesome...

I fully agree too but I think there is a large slice of luck involved when appointing a new manager. I was never a fan of the 'big name' new manager route that we had taken in the past sometimes. Robins didn't set the world alight at Barnsley and he's doing ok at Huddesfield but it seemed to...

My Vale supporting friend who was at the game said Leon was a real handful and he's glad they don't have to play him every week. I asked if he was confusing him with Wilson and he said it was the taller and older if the two that was our best player?!?

Maybe so but all the off field shite that comes with him, means he ends up playing below his level. Isn't he potentially looking at more time inside with his latest driving offences? That's be two very good finishers they'd have lost to her majesty's pleasure!!! Shame he never learnt, good...

Makes our live game a bit more interesting!!!
