    TM had a clean slate at the start of the campaign. Slade came in with us already in the bottom four. Slade Has failed so far, but the two situations are world's apart.

    Personally I would say that Clarke is far, far superior to Turnbull. Turnbull has very little strength about him and no command at all. Clarke much better to my mind

    Maybe they weren't available, but you would have thought there would have been, because Slade seemed to get players in very quickly and easily after taking charge.

    As I said on another thread, Burge heads for near post to a corner that is hit very deep.

    Thing is, league games are more important if you believe you have any chance of staying up. If you accept we are down, the cup game is much more important. You also have to remember that a number of first teamer's will be missing for Tuesday. No Clarke, Foley, Rawson, Willis, Vernam.

    Yep, hope so too. Then we will have rickety old Ricketts in charge.

    Yep. Needs to be someone fit. Doesn't have to be 100% necessarily, but somewhere close. Not match fit is going to mean at least a month to bring them up to speed. Pointless then. We will be long gone.

    Tuesday is vital without doubt. Can you just imagine how low we are going to feel if we lose. I think the whole club and city will have completely given up hope and we will sink without trace. It is a massive, massive game.

    It is and you are right, the summer dealings shaped our season. It's a lot less to do with how many games someone had or didn't have in charge, it's about not putting a competitive squad out there for this league in the first place. It is a sorry season all round. Failure on all fronts. We...

    He will have to be on the bench if Folivi is still injured. Otherwise we are going to have another Jones/Rose combination up front if we want to change things round. You also have to remember we haven't scored in the last 4 games. For that reason alone I would include Pontichelli in the squad.

    Good post. If we reflect on the season, who exactly would we say has been a good player for us this year? Think most would agree, Rose, no, Jones, no, Lameiras, no, Reid, no, Bigi, no, Wright, no, RCC, no, Burge, no, Turnbull, no, Aygei, no, Ghadzhev, no. Willis has been okay. Sordell pretty...

    I think the only thing now that can turn our season around is the trip to Wembley. We win on Tuesday and we are going to be buzzing for a few days at least. Maybe, just maybe that will boost the morale and spirit in the dressing room.

    Could be simply a big reputation with the ladies. If so, I am expecting Tony Blackburn or Warren Beatty.

    It was a dreadful mistake yesterday. You can clearly see it is a deep corner, yet he goes to his near post. He stays in the middle he probably collects that. The only thing I can think of in his defence is that he was probably running away from a tennis ball.

    Mowbray.

    How do we get out of this mess

    Yeah, maybe. Someone will take Reid I think. Lives off his silky skills. Bradford fans warned us about him. Isn't Ghadzhev just on a one year deal anyway? Think we will just let him go.

    How do we get out of this mess

    We don't build teams though do we. :( Our good players get sold and we constantly keep having to rely on loans, which means each season is a rebuild. Who do we realistically want to keep for next season and who would probably stay? Clarke, Beavon, DKE. Who else? Willis will be gone and so...

    I am sure everyone is bored to death with this now. I don't know why you still keep talking about Mowbray. Let's move on.
