In light of the likelihood of losing O'Hare on a free transfer in the Summer I thought I would look at some of the players our Championship rivals could also lose that we might be able to bring in ourselves. I've left out over 30's as they don't seem to fit into MR's masterplan. Source is the...

You do know that I wasn't suggesting he play up front? I was simply responding to the post that Kelly is not a good footballer! btw Kelly's penalty in the play off final suggests he would easily be up to taking penalties for us if ever needed.

I think we are much more likely to get promoted than to win the cup, but given a choice I would prefer winning the cup. That achievement would easily spur us onto promotion the following season anyhow!

I disagree completely. Kelly's age might be against him and his lack of pace too, but he is a decent footballer. As an example I would refer you to the 'unseen' video from a few games back where his finishing skills put all our current forwards to shame.

Twitter/ X is full of wums getting a perverse kick out of getting bites, so the more Godden reacts the more they will double down & give it to him. I don't understand what any player gets out of being on there, particularly if they are sensitive to criticism. As has been pointed out by a few on...

I think robbiethemole has made the schoolboy error of trusting Clive's commentary to be an accurate reflection of the match being played in front of him :ROFLMAO:

On a completely level playing field we win, but I'm worried about the lack of recovery time after the Plymouth game. Players wouldn't have got to bed until well into the early hours this morning, so today they will probably just rest up, while tomorrow shouldn't be too taxing either with a game...

They don't need to improve though. If they carry on that poor level of form until the end of the season they will still end up on 77 points which will comfortably find them in the playoffs. For us to match that we would have to accrue 2 points a game for the rest of the season, which is pretty...

At least the bet was voided and you got your money back. If you had bet Wallace's replacement instead you would have lost the bet, even though he did his best to take Sakamoto's head off!

If that's what he did at Wembley its probably also why we had Dabo taking the 6th penalty!

Wright has the job now until he mucks up. Agree with those putting forward Torp as an option though. Eccles was a clinical penalty taker in youth football, which he has carried into a number of penalty shoot outs in our first team so would be comfortable with him too.

It has to be reported by someone first. I've not seen the incident discussed anywhere but in this thread, which I very much doubt the FA are monitoring.

Didn't mean just this season 🙄

I want Saka to play this match as I think its a game that could suit him. Their wing backs like to get forward which could leave him a lot of space to operate in when they lose possession. The Stoke game is one where he is more likely to be subject to the over physical defending he has faced...

Ha ha, got me!! Will edit it now - the original points nevertheless stand :)

Our fans would have been right on DK's case if prices had been double that, so we now have to show him that he was right to keep prices at this level. If the crowd is only around 20k I'm not sure that will encourage him to keep prices so low for future cup games.

Unless we were prepared to completely change our style he would only have ever been a Plan B option for us. He isn't someone that will run the channels looking for intricate passes from the likes of O'Hare, Palmer, Torp, Sakamoto as is usually required of our forwards, and instead he would...

This is why I'm slightly sceptical when people get over excited by stats based evidence and are keen to quote such evidence as factual, when in fact as this shows it is actually based on judgemental information, which in this case to me was entirely false. Sakamoto had to hit a crossed ball on a...

Ridiculous and unfair to even compare. Different players with different styles!

Saka is definitely being targeted in the same way Gyokores was last season, and seems to get no protection whatsoever. His resilience in the face of this treatment is admirable, but it seems inevitable he will pick up a bad injury from one of these challenges sooner or later. I agree MR should...
