    Adaramola being sent back to Palace?

    Dragging up old posts to prove a point - has Grendel forgot to log out of one of his alts? Stand by my comment. Potential and ability are different. Read up on him, speak to people involved in youth football. He’s very highly thought of, this hasn’t worked for some reason which is a shame for...

    The defence

    A direct replacement for Hyam would have been ideal i.e. RCB, but if Rose stays fit he can do a job. I have concerns over how good he actually is, but there were signs previously he could be a player, so let’s hope consistent game time helps. Dabo is a worry, he had an amazing L1 season but...

    Deadline Day Thread

    So Godden, Dabo, Vik and one more want out due to Hyam leaving? Godden and Dabo who are probably playing in the strongest squads of their career, at the biggest club of their careers too (outside of youth football). Dabo is living off one good season - he’s been injured since (and I like...

    Deadline Day Thread

    Definitely a concerning day today. This forum is prone to emotive outbursts but if Gyokeres goes that really is a season changer. At this point, even if it’s a large fee we’ll have no time to replace. Ideal scenario; Out: Walker Waghorn Kane In: RCB RWB LWB (back up) ST ACM In reality I...

    Mark Robins is responsible for Hyam being sold

    Yea I hate the signing Championship experience thing. It’s been an absolute waste of time and resource for us. We need a few experienced heads (see the influence of McFadzean the last few years) but too many can lead to a team going through the motions, less passion or enthusiasm and ultimately...

    Numerous posters taking a widely misinterpreted comment from MR way too personally. Classic SBT.

    Has to give Taveres a go. Godden is anonymous and we need something more.

    Multiple subs coming on. He just made a good tackle but Eccles needs to come off now. Not a RWB.

    If this isn’t a one off, Doyle is an absolute footballer. Very composed and looks mature for his level of experience. Just completely dummied Evans as if he was going for the ball.

    On the ascendancy as is the atmosphere. 100% our game to win, especially considering the bench. Their 4 is added to the list of absolute twats too.

    Waghorn playing fine as an individual but he’s not a natural 10 at least not on his one. Positioning and movement not right, yet at least. Same with Eccles when attacking. Either too tucked in or too far forward. Positive is we have Palmer, Dabo, Hamer and Taveres (poss Walker) who can all...

    Ched Evans is a massive massive wanker. Hope McFadz crunches him before FT. Looks like he’s in his head which is good.

    Happened very fast but did Wilson even touch him? He did the right thing either way as that’s a definite goal otherwise.

    Absolutely not jumping on that bandwagon as he has ability. But Eccles is not a RWB in a team playing on the back foot. He also seems to only jog to every ball which is weird.

    Absolutely overran in midfield. So so much space. They aren’t even a footballing team and we’re making them look like Brazil.

    Feels like a nervousness both on and off the pitch so far.

    That foul on McFadz is one that’s so blatant with zero intent to get the ball yet still gets no booking. Elbow up too. At least the ref saw it. And I fully expect Fadz to crush their 9 in response.

    I like Palmer and I still maintain he has ability and will be an asset. But not being able to start two games in a row is absolutely horrific. He’s literally a professional sportsman.
