    Johnson and Nouble to save Pressleys job?

    I think we should always bring our A team to matches.

    Yep. I liked Adams. Bit of a strange one for sure.

    Goalkeeping situation

    You can be fantastic keeper, but if the 4 defenders in front of you keep making big mistakes then you are not going to be able to keep constantly saving their bacon. My worry with him is his command of the 6 yard area, rather than the back 4 putting him in trouble all the time. He seems really...

    Goalkeeping situation

    No, true. He is just a small part of the reason. He's not good at claiming crosses or being commanding, but problems elsewhere on the pitch are much more pressing.

    Goalkeeping situation

    There may well be a good keeper in there somewhere, NW, but he has looked edgy, indecisive and nervous for us so far and that really will put the back four on edge too.

    Pressley interview....

    Just wondering. Are the dugouts at the training ground and Sixifelds below pitch level? Could explain a lot.

    Let's be honest here, there hasn't been a single chant for his head yet from the City faithful at home games. Think fans have been really patient with him. We go 2-0 down on Saturday though and I think the grumbles will indeed turn to calls for his head. What is happening out there on the...

    Goalkeeping situation

    I do think Bournemouth are quietly laughing up their sleeves, having palmed off Allsop, Coulibaly and McQuoid on us. McQuoid has done the best of the 3, but hasn't be that greta shakes and Coulibaly seems a bit of a luxury players who will only be any good in fits and starts (maybe starting...

    2 options for Saturday

    When I saw the title I thought the 2 options were going to be; 1. We forfeit the match before the game kicks off, giving away the 3 points, but avoiding further injuries and suspensions or 2. We dig up the pitch and make it unplayable.

    It's not Rocket Science

    Agree, Nick. In spite of everything, we should still be more competetive than we are. We still should be able to put out a side that at least doesn't get walked all over.

    Johnson and Nouble to save Pressleys job?

    And have a think here, how many tackles have we made in midifeld to win the ball back this season? Think you'll really struggle to come up with many at all. No attacking threat from midfield, not enough goals from midfield, no physicality from midfield.

    If we are going to fall away after Xmas we need to embrace this purple patch while we can and celebrate the good times.

    Keep going. It will make the van that's coming your way easier to find you.

    Pressley interview....

    Maybe because it is just the one single 17 year old kid perhaps? SP is now saying we need Johnson and Nouble for that physical presence. Is he saying we have just those 2 players for those positions with no cover whatsoever? Every time these players are injured we are fooked? And if we only...

    We have had 9 shots on target from the last 3 games combined. We simply aren't creating enough. Last night it was only 4 shots in total, 2 of which were on target.

    Pressley interview....

    He's right. Trouble is, he's the manager and he and Waggott chose the players to bring to this club. To not have one single senior midfield player with any physicality is a massive oversight. I hear Ivor Lawton from the academy is that sort of combatative midfielder we crave. Are we really...

    Johnson and Nouble to save Pressleys job?

    We do have some good players, but the squad is poor. I don't understand anyone who says we have a good squad. We don't even have a half decent goalkeeper and surely that is a very key component for any team. You look to the spine and there is the obvious weakness. We lack any physicality in...

    That makes us feel so much better. Thanks.

    Recruitment has been shocking

    I'm confused. I thought we had a better squad than last year? :sarcasm:

    Didn't even spot that. :claping hands: For what it's worth, I don't think it is ever a good idea to have a romance when someone is on their period. To emotionally charged a situation i feel.
