    Match Thread U23s vs Colchester U23s

    Does he even want to play football?

    Would you have Tom Bayliss back?

    Interesting to see that of our play off final match day squad, only Hyam, Kelly and Clarke-Harris have successfully stepped up to championship level and regularly played (when fit) that's to their credit, and shows just what a massive step up the championship is.

    Would you have Tom Bayliss back?

    Tbf, your probably right, Shipley was good for us in league 2, who can forget his goal at wembley and his energy level that day was fantastic, he stepped up and did ok in league 1, but has found it very tough in the championship, (although he did well enough in his last couple of outings...

    Would you have Tom Bayliss back?

    It hasn't worked at other clubs because he simply isn't good enough, he hasnt got anything like the work rate and stamina required for the championship, and his defensive game is practically non existent, He was accommodated in our midfield as we had other players who covered for him when play...

    Would you have Tom Bayliss back?

    Why the absolute fuck would you want to replace shipley with Bayliss it makes no sence whatsoever? If we were to off load Shipley, why dont we replace him with something we actually need like a LWB. Honestly your suggestion is like saying why dont you sell the family car, and replace it with...

    Would you have Tom Bayliss back?

    No, he's a great league 2 player, but do we really want to go back there? If we need another AM player I trust MR to find one, or to utilise JJ or Bright (whatever happened to him?)

    Reading manager and the 8 minutes

    No need to change the rules, just get the ref to add extra time if he thinks teams are taking the piss, it looks like that's exactly what's happened in our first 2 home games.

    Hyam

    He saved us a few times as well, but why mention that when you can be negative!

    Next six games

    12 points from that 6, the power of positive thinking! Why not? We still have room to Improve, and have Godden and JCS to come in yet! If I was a manager facing us at the moment, I'd be very worried, Sheaf, Hamer and O'hare can open any side up, and Gyoketes is a real handful for...

    Hyam

    Hyam is a steady eddy player, a regular 7/10 who goes about his job with no thrills and as such rarely gets a mention. He and Fadz complement each other well, and apart from the obvious lack of pace they do very well for us, and have both proved excellent value. If JCS can add the pace to...

    Ratings v Reading

    I'm hoping he's just unfit. He certainly looked good enough in Derby's last game of the season when he got man of the match and kept them up, but so far (very early days yet) he looks off the pace. And with Godden back in contention, and Walker's injury not looking as bad as we feared...

    Ratings v Reading

    If Waghorn ain't dynamic enough now at 31 years of age, when the fuck is he going to be ? A weird signing for me, like Kastaneer, Jobello, Hilsner and Bosma. Its kind of fucked up when our 4th choice striker is the highest paid squad member.

    Simon Moore

    Had a blinder against Blackpool, didnt have much to do against Reading. But he has certainly expelled a lot of fears so far, and the defence seems less panicked with him behind them.

    Hyam

    Played very well yesterday, looks like he has settled into the pace and demands of the Championship. I agree that he should look better on the right side of the back 3.

    No longer than the odds on Sunderland getting promoted 🤣

    Robins Magic.

    The odds were greater than Elvis Pressley, Lord Lucan and Madeleine McCann appearing on Britains got talent together as a trio singing smack my bitch up while smoking weed and then getting abducted by aliens!

    Robins Magic.

    I think DaCosta is being used out of necessity, we are thread bare when it comes to WB cover, if Maatsen or Dabo pick up long term injuries we are proper fucked! Hopefully another defender will arrive this week to ease the problem.

    Waghorn.....

    With a fully fit squad, Waghorn gets Saturdays off.

    QPR away

    They started with George Thomas at RWB but dragged him off early on once they realised just how shit he was. They didnt look good tbf, so if were on it, we should pick up our second away win.
