    At home playing 4 1 4 1

    Diamond midfields can be tricky to play against because in the middle it was 4 v 3 favouring them. It’s why we reverted to a diamond shape in the last 10m or so. Our wingers couldn’t have been further up the pitch without being offside. We didn’t try to play through the gaps in the middle when...

    At home playing 4 1 4 1

    There’s 3 points between us and 9th, things aren’t as bad as people are making out. In the league, we’ve lost 3, drew 2 of the last 5 with 3 of those being in the playoffs. It’s not the coming of the apocalypse. Not many people are not looking at this with the long term in mind. It seems we’re...

    We were clearly playing 4-3-3 and the wingers obviously have to drop when defending. You could see Hiwula, Thomas and JCH in line when we had the ball, with Shipley and Bayliss high up as well. If anything, Kelly was too isolated because their number 10 was on him all the time. It didn’t...

    Agreed. Luton are by the best team to come to the RICOH all season. I had an uneasy feeling we were going to get a good hiding after the first 10. I also agree with your point about the fans not being behind the players. There’s actually a bit of a toxic atmosphere when things aren’t going our...

    Something like that. The app I use highlights the positions of the result I selected. So momentarily I thought Gillingham was 9th and Wycombe 16th haha. Brain fart fully embraced!

    Before our bad run Accrington Stanley were above us. Puts that one into perspective — their in bad form too. The table is very fluid, a run of form shoots any team up the table. There’s a difference between a run of bad form and being a bad team. Our 5 game win streak has inflated expectations...

    We’re above Accrington Stanley and Wycombe (edit: misread the table whoops).

    I liked the idea of going 4-3-3 today, but it didn’t work. We could get the ball moving through midfield and JCH was so isolated. We’re so sloppy in the final third. Going forward, Kelly and Doyle should partner each other in midfield, flanked by Bayliss/Shipley and Thomas. It’s back to basics...

    We’re by far the weaker team. We’re too spread out and not moving the ball through midfield well at all. But, the conditions aren’t helping either side in that regard. JCH is too isolated, as is Kelly at times when Bayliss and Shipley push too far up. Hiwula unlucky for his chance. awful...

    Jodi Jones ACL

    That’s harsh. Look at how well Callum Wilson recovered from his ACL injuries. It’s not a death sentence for his career at all. If Jones takes responsibility and works hard at his rehab, there’s nothing stopping him rebuilding his career. He looked good in pockets in L1, but he’s been dealt a...

    What a laughably childish thing to say. It doesn't even make sense because a Stalinist democracy is an oxymoron. Would I still be a 'Stalinist' if Leave won a second referendum? Probably not. Therefore, you making that juvenile comment suggests that you fear a second referendum. What is there...

    Another lie of the Leave campaign. In that model, we sign up to the very rules and regulations that infringe upon parliament’s sovereignty. But, only we don’t get any say whatsoever in the EU. If someone thinks it’s bad now as full members, how bad do you think it’ll be when we’re out of the...

    Exactly my point why a referendum is needed to break the deadlock. Nothing changes even if Labour formed a government. Yes, I’m a Labour supporter, but the current scenario doesn’t change with Corbyn as PM. It doesn’t change even if the Tories elected a new leader. For those arguing that the...

    It’s pretty clear even from this thread that people are split on this, from rejecting May’s deal, to wanting to renegotiate or just go out with no deal. My arguments for a second referendum are centered around the Government not being able to pass its Brexit deal. No one is seriously basing an...

    How would these alternatives be offered to the public? A referendum? So you are in favour of another referendum. If so, it's hypocritical to offer the public alternatives on what kind of Brexit they want, but not if they wish to reconsider Brexit. That's rather hypocritical. You know full well...

    What do you mean exactly when you say the Government can deliver Brexit? It can’t deliver a Brexit via Parliament ratifying the current deal.

    Let’s concentrate on Britain can do. What is the solution the situation the government finds itself in? If not a general election or referendum, what’s to be done? As far as I can see, the options are May’s deal, which isn’t a proper Brexit, hence the ERG are in open rebellion or a no deal...

    That reply is beneath you. Why don’t you share your wisdom and lay out what you think will happen? Surely someone as intelligent as yourself recognised that something needs to happen one way or the other, be it a GE or referendum. You’re not stupid.

    Whichever way a second one went, there probably wouldn’t be a third for a generation. Surely people cannot look at the state of government right now and think we should carry on business as usual? I’m well aware that the voter fatigue is a real thing, but this is a crisis. I’m not even being...
