Chris Dagnall was a decent loannee for SP, as were Robinson and Prutton to start off with.
Back to Cole, a lot was expected but putting that aside, his own performance has been in the soso camp not a failure, not his fault that shoehorning him into a winning team upset our balance and...
Surely Cole can't be described as a total failure? He has kept his head above water better than most. Some fans expected him to tear up the division but that was never fair.
Think the top of league one will be weaker next season but the middle and bottom half will be more competitive. I think it'll be a really open season where any of a dozen teams could be competing for playoffs until late on.
Bristol Rovers, Oxford, Plymouth and Portsmouth are all teams who get bigger crowds than many teams in this league, particularly those northern ones where we struggle like Scunn, Bury, Rochdale. Tough away trips up north and more competitive teams in the south.
Charlton are a complete mess and probably won't be in a position to dominate. MK are an ok side but hardly likely to be super strong. Bolton have got new owners and if anything they'll be the threat.
I wouldn't say the league next season will be stronger than this.
As long as it's...
No chance will he leave all of Murphy, Arma and Maddison on the bench for this one!
Will be more like: RCC, Phillips, Ricketts, Stephens, Martin, Fleck, Vincelot, Maddison, Jones, Arma, Tuddy. - 442 with Madders and Jones on the wing.
The latter part of the sentence is irrelevant. Either there is working ticketline where you can ring up a human, or it's not available. None of this "she was serving a customer", I'm not calling up the village post office, we're supposed to be a serious club.
Club shop told me that there was...
They used to do that. We had an outsourced call centre in London I think. Remember being told by some clueless lad that I could get tickets in the south stand for a home game, asked him how that squared with his knowledge of the Ricoh...he said he'd never been and was a Man U fan!
I did used to...
Called the club and rang option 1 for the ticket office. On hold for 10 mins. Got bored and rang again, this time press 7 for general enquiries. Disconnected immediately. Tried again, same result.
Rang the club shop - was told that there's only one person in the ticket office today and she's...
I reckon he will re-sign at least one of Ricketts, Lorentzon or Phillips, for squad continuity reasons - the last few games will be a bit of a shoot-out to see who it'll be, hence AP playing at Gills.
Same applies in attack - he'll probably keep one of Tudgay or Fortune (or, less likely...
Who says I'm angry? I'm not. Just pointing out that those pointing to the "option" meaning he'll definitely stay, overlooks the fact that we might accept a bid..
Well he may be offered a new deal, but his agent will be doing the rounds across the Champ circuit, pushing him to other clubs. As with Sambou, just cos we made an offer doesn't mean it won't be trumped by another club.
I can see Forest for one coming in for him - Burton would be another...
