I understand why Forest and Leicester fans would say such things… Did Swansea fans miss what happened to them after he left them? 😂 His work in the Championship at Swansea and Forest was fantastic and that's not accounting for his body of work elsewhere e.g. England U20s. If he put his name...

The point wasn’t that we shouldn’t have kept them. It time for them to move on, the issue is that there’s been no experienced players to replace them. Thomas and Kitching had spoken on how well they got on with McFadz and his influence on them in training (iirc). Coincidentally, the initial...

Agree on this. Both of Sheffield’s goals yesterday felt a bit too easy. You could see 2 passes before the matter because of how all over the place we were. The issue is two fold in my view. As you rightly point out there’s something not right with the tactics and/or coaching of the team...

I’d 100% appoint Cooper but it’s probably too late in the process.

This is a silly conspiracy theory. Things take time to be put in place and there’s no point in having a new manager take over a game for one session before Burnley away.

Recruitment for Jan needs to pick up where we left off in the summer. We were looking for a CM and experienced CB. Defensively, an experienced head would hopefully support the young core so we cut out a lot of our soft goals. I’d like to add a RB and LB but reckon that’s a job for the summer...

He could play RWB, but he was mostly playing CM. I wouldn’t say it’s impossible, we have more resources than before. My priority is a CM, there’s just a different profile of player needed in our team and without disrespecting Eccles or Sheaf, Hamer showed us yesterday what we’re missing.

Which ITK was calling him a yes man on here? 🤔

Has been Moyes’ right hand man at Everton and Man U and Arteta’s at Arsenal until 2023, apparently he fell out with Arteta over his decision to replace Ramsdale with Raya. A fantastic coach by all accounts, would probably be a great shout for a DoF. Side note: I’ve also had him as a coach on...

This is a level headed approach to his career to date. Again, he's a prospective manager in the Championship, not the Prem.

Unless it’s a 3-4-3 which we’ve never really tried. I’d like for us to play 4-2-3-1 / 4-3-3 with wingers we look a lot more dangerous. I like the idea of Kitching and/or Binks being an inverted LB. Kitching has played LWB decently and Binks today and other games joins the attack often. It may...

Probably because we’ve seen McCallum play against us a few times now, iirc. Next time we face Hamer and COH, there will be no dramatics.

From my angle, BTA looked well offside but I’ve not had the benefit of a replay to see if there was a stray fullback potentially playing him onside. Today is a game we should’ve won. We started well, conceded two soft goals and of course we need comeback from that. Sheffield were a well drilled...

So? It’s not COH’s fault he did his ACL with 18 months on his contract. By all accounts he’d all but signed for Burnley before that injury. It’s just cringeworthy that we applauded Hamer that much at a corner. If he was being subbed off, that’s slightly different. It’s done now, I thought...

I felt like we looked better moving the ball forwards with Sheaf and Rudoni as the ‘pivots’. Eccles had a good game individually but because both Eccles and Sheaf are both ‘quarterbacks’, it can sometimes slow us down as neither is particularly good at driving the ball in the final third. The...

I thought the scores were level at this point. If we were losing then that makes it even more tinpot.

I’m happy with a 1 in 4 striker to be 3rd choice. I’m just pointing out that for all the stick our strikers get compared to the relative praise Bassette gets… Bassette is still our lowest scoring striker.

Where’s this been said? Could it be Steve Round as Director of Football? There’s been a bit of noise on this.

Let’s not forget that BTA has 2 in the league cup.

Who plays in his place? We tried Rudoni there and Sakamoto with a cameo. Bidwell is the undisputed first choice option.
