Don’t think we are on our own lots of clubs are struggling with injures, Saturday we had Panzo. Rose, Godden, Maguire, Kelly, Walker, Dabo amongst others not selected,plus Sheaf injured I think we cope pretty well.
Robins played JWE in front of Bidwell where Sunderland were starting to cause us problems down their right hand side, proved a good move as it did the job.
Interesting that re. Cuffy he’s so unorthodox looks like he’s lost control then his telescopic type legs recover the ball. Our second goal Saturday was started from him coming through centre midfield does he have the experience though ? Would be a bit of a gamble.
Poor outfit Huddersfield how they made the play-offs last season god knows. With the old war horse Warnock in charge he will get them fired up and try to intimidate the referee but I fancy us strongly to win this one.
Over the last 12 months we have recruited new coaches at U/18 & 21 level and there’s been a complete rebuild of our scouting network. Been new coaches in the academy network too probably a case of one step at a time but good to see.
Doesn’t what Robins said only last week about building a team around Vik mean anything to you.
And remember a chunk of any Vik fee apparently goes to Brighton.
It will be an on going rumour, if he wanted us surely he would have gone the whole hog a few weeks ago, it doesn’t look like sisu were that difficult to get rid of. Admittedly Doug King and where the money is coming from is a bit of a mystery though.
