It is infuriating that he acknowledges the tiredness then does nothing to mitigate. He's clearly ideologically opposed to making changes before the hour, and will avoid them if he can. It was clear to see some of the players, like Sheaf, Thomas and Lati were struggling with tiredness but are...

They were awful earlier in the season. Most of the barely left the ground. Think it was something like 84 corners he took before we scored from one.

Trying to find what to take from that game and what I've got is: Palmer just wants to do flicks and tricks rather than actually be an effective footballer, so we need a better option. Dasilva is always targeted with the ball over the top, and doesn't seem to be adapting to it. But as his job is...

Yep. Teams know how to target Dasilva defensively, so at best he'd be a backup for LW. Palmer just wants to do Hollywood flicks rather than stuff that is actually constructive. I think Lati is knackered, hence his injury, but he does make errors, but then so does most of the rest of the defence.

Well that taught us nothing. The players are clearly exhausted, but we play them anyway and don't make subs until late, so we pick up another injury. We may as well have just let some of the U21's have a few minutes near the end. Dausch had a good go during his cameo.

You do realise the difference between career suicide and financial suicide? He could get a lot of money while at the same time ruining his reputation as a manager.

Playing the tired first teamers has started well...

What else? A dubious offside starts a nuclear war...?

So worst case scenario is: Strong team, pick up an injury or two due to fatigue, get beat anyway.

Most of the U21's and promising U18 played for the U21's today, so not going to see them on the bench. Which pretty much leaves us with the first team, who're fucked.

At Wembley fine. Otherwise every ground would just ensure they had their own fans behind both goals.

Wasn't it more we were absolutely desperate for the money.

Don't remember Leo Sayer's cover of that.

No they're not. Both U18 and U21 are 9th out of 11.

Even if he was 20 I wouldn't say he could be world class.

Pretty sure MR would. Seemed a big fan. On a free probably, though it would almost certainly see the end of Bidwell.

I've noticed the last couple of seasons very little gets released about the U18's. Can almost never find out a line up or who scored about 40% of the goals. I've got Dausch down as confirmed scoring 8 for the U18's this season, but there's 22 goals I don't know the scorer, so he could have 30...

For anyone joining a PL team as even a regular squad player you'd be looking at double that. I imagine the offer we put to him would've been around that, if not slightly more.

First things first, do not play anyone carrying any sort of injury. No point risking them and make sure they're going to be fit for pre-season training. 2nd, don't play anyone that won't be here next year. Kelly, Godden and O'Hare etc. can say their goodbyes against QPR. 3. Give the youngsters...
