    That ship has sailed, rightly or wrongly. After what has been said I would say there is no return to be had.

    Team for Tuesday. What would you change?

    Murphy is a match winner. Just not nearly often enough. Madison can be too and obviously Armstrong. We do have them. They just don't do it enough. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

    Won 9 out of 11. I would take a draw. Only on the proviso though that we pick up 3 points against Rochdale. 4 points from 2 games wouldn't be too bad. Can understand people saying we have to win, but we have to be realistic. Barnsley have won 9 out of 11 and we have lost 4 out of 6. They are...

    I knew we'd lose when

    No, agree! One up top isn't working. Teams are crowding Armstrong out for the most part. I see on MOTD they were talking about Southampton's three at the back system working really well. That would obviously then give you an extra option further up the field. Is that something worth...

    Yep. Two days running, which is doubly bad.

    Also need to keep an eye on Shrewsbury v Rochdale. We have Rochdale coming up next time out and they are unbeaten in 4 and just drew against Bradford and then beat Sheff Utd. They should prove to be a stern test for us. Two very tough games, Barnsley away and then Rochdale at home. We need to...

    Is Football Crap These Days ?

    That rule is the 6 seconds with the ball in their hand, in play. We're talking about goal kicks, so a dead ball scenario. 10 seconds from when they have their ball in the hands for a goal kick. So 10 seconds to place the ball do their run up and kick it. You have to remember they can change...

    One save I believe.

    Is Football Crap These Days ?

    Yep. Give them 6 or 10 seconds to take the kick once they have it in their hands and are ready to take it.

    But then if Cole can't play two games in four days and Murphy needs dropping, if we then drop Madison too that is all three attacking midfielders missing all in one go.

    Is Football Crap These Days ?

    Refs should announce the kick off is taking place, whether the scoring team are lined up or not,. Go ahead without them if necessary. Alternatively, like in cricket, where a player has 2 minutes to get to the wicket after a player is out, football should adopt the same concept. Kick off needs...

    Are you saying TM is blind?

    Is Football Crap These Days ?

    Does everyone agree that, that feigning of an injury by the Fleetwood centre back was a disgrace? He was rolling around on the floor holding his face for about 6 seconds like he been poleaxed by a grizzly bear and then when he realised he wasn't getting anything he leaped to his feet and...

    The whole starting 11 today (bar RCC)

    Think I maybe need to look at that goal again. Seemed to me at the time the defender would have stopped that ball coming in if he has known Armstrong was behind him. Is that a fair deduction?

    Murphy

    Bobby Gould picked up on it quite early. Odd. He should have either brought on Rose or Lameiras at that point.

    I really think TM has got to be brave and rest Ricketts. He's just not the same player he was at the start of the season and has become a bit of a liability. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

    The whole starting 11 today (bar RCC)

    Let's be honest though, that goal wasn't down to a good pass, it was down to calamitous defending by their player who just stopped unaware that Armstrong was there behind him.

    We are far from the finished article

    Agree. It is rubbish. It is start from scratch agian next season and it could well take 10-15 games for the new team to gel. We were so lucky this season we came out and clicked straight off. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

    I knew we'd lose when

    I feared it. We looked good for the first 15 mins or so and if we had scored then it would have been a different game entirely.
