I think Waghorn was brought in as that alternate to get physical when necessary.

So why does he have games where he doesn't use all his subs and often uses them far too late. His interviews say he recognises the players are tired, but then when he actually has a chance to mitigate that during games with subs he doesn't do it. It's like me complaining my nose is sore then...

So if people were playing games at Christmas and we weren't, we're playing more games now to catch up and so will be more tired. Especially as the squad is quite thin and MR seems reluctant to use the remaining squad players for more than a few minutes, or even use the full complement of subs to...

Don't think you could play Tavares instead of Gyok. It'd have to be alongside him.

Almost certainly, but for me Allen should be ahead of Shipley at AM, and is second choice in that position behind O'Hare.

Thing with the 'tired' excuse, why has he not utilised all his subs in previous games and when he has done it with only 5-10minutes to go? Not like he's suddenly woken up this morning and gone 'Fuck me! We're playing a lot of games in a short space of time aren't we! if only someone had told me...

What has Shipley done? Yet has started the last few games despite being consistently poor. Jones had been on the bench head of him up to that point in the season then suddenly leapfrogs him (possibly due to Covid) and has now stayed ahead of him despite poor performances. You'd think he'd at...

If you play someone like Waghorn it's from the start to wear a defender out then bring someone like Jones or Tavares to exploit the tiredness. As a defender you're probably ok seeing Waghorn coming off the bench. And if the reason he didn't start is because he's not fit, don't bring him off...

Poor performance all round. Part of it, i think, starts with our failure to add at least one more body to the squad in Jan while shipping out deadwood. Lots of games coming up in quick succession is going to lead to tiredness so a couple of injuries and you're in trouble. Players weirdly just...

Well at least we won't have the Cardiff manager saying we're the best team they've played all season...

Would probably try him for Shipley first, then if we still weren't getting anywhere swap him to LWB and try Jones/Waghorn/Tavares.

Feels like this game is there for the taking if we're willing to be a bit braver.

Suprised to see Shipley in ahead of Maatsen. Almost feels like MR is determined for him to prove himself so the decision to not let him leave was a bad one. Hope Waghorn is fit enough to actually be a realistic option off the bench and Fadz adds that little bit of organsation. Wonder if JCS is...

Moore Hyam Fadz JCS Kane Sheaf Allen Bidwell O'Hare Maatsen Gyokeres Wilson, Rose, Reid, Howley, Shipley, Jones, Tavares Really down to bare bones. Fadz in for that leadership of defence. Rose unlucky to drop out. Gone for Bidwell's defence qualities, but fear it will stifle us going forward...

Said for ages that we need energy independence and the money we were spending on things like gas and nuclear, which required extensive help from foreign nations, left us weak. We're perfectly placed to make the most of numerous renewable energy sources and the fact we haven't just because those...

If a new one was built it's highly likely we wouldn't have one then either. It'd be owned by a SISU subsidiary and leased to the club. Think there's more likelihood of part-ownership in the Ricoh than a new stadium.

My main take was 'God, they look middle-aged now'. Which then reminded me that I am too.

Perhaps you could set up a BrightonSkyBlue-Covkid1968#-Grendel consortium to get rid of him?

Fadz on for Hyam who was on a yellow. Jones for Hamer, who'll be suspended for two games, and move Allen next to Sheaf. Even if you put Tavares on and tell him to hassle and run after defenders it stops players who are playing two games a week from getting even more knackered. this failure...

Reckon there might be a Paun sacrifice tonight.
