Hasn't it always been the case that we should have been the 12th man? Why should we suddenly become the 12th man now? Had we done it years ago we wouldn't even be in this mess. :(

Yep, agree with this. And there is a vast difference in slowly blooding academy players carefully to just throwing them straight into the team at the drop of a hat. If the plan is to make an assault on the top 6 places next season, that is going to be incredibly difficult with a squad with...

Not trying to piss on anyone's chips here, but just how bad are we all going to be feeling if TM does really well for us until the end of the season and then buggers off to a bigger club? The dumps we have been down in this season are going to feel like small lottery win compared to having to...

Trouble is, at the start of this season, that was pretty much what we were saying we had then, Reda Johnson, JOB, Tudgay.

Yes indeed. Really sorry to hear. I met him once and my brother used to work with him. Nice bloke.

Would tend to agree. Frank Nouble Marcus Tudgay Simeon Jackson Shaun Miller Andy Webster Adam Barton Ivor Lawton Blair Turgott Kyle Spence George Thomas Devon Kelly-Evans Dion Kelly-Evans Reda Johnson Jordan Willis Danny Pugh Lee Burge Reece Charles-Cook Ryan Haynes Aaron Martin Aaron...

Yep. Bet back then we would have laughed in the faces of anyone who would have suggested such a notion.

Oh yes, totally agree. I have much more faith in TM than I ever had in Pressley.

He likes to attack, attack, attack, so I am guessing 2-4-4.

IF he is given the backing. If he is under such constraints that he has to field the academy we could be in trouble again. Guess I am looking at all this as losing lots of players and not being convinced the owners giving TM the backing he'll need. I agree that in that list there's not many I...

I was thinking more Walter Mitty.

For 'reviewing our position' should we maybe read that as 'Slowly backing out of the room on tip toes and pretending we were never at the party in the first place.'

We now have 6 loan players on our books and we are only allowed to play a maximum of 5 anyway.

it's another downside of utilising loan players too. Hard to create stability when you know you only have certain players for a short time and that is why I think we need to try and keep loan players we bring to this club to the minimum possible.

Ooh, big time new broom!! i would be looking to offload Thomas and Fleck anyway, so that doesn't leave us with a lot does it. I also think that, that is too many players we will be needing for next year and that could result in it all taking a long time for the new squad to gel. Should never...

Nope, they sing the old Badfinger song 'No madda what.'

Long term success on the pitch is what we should always have been striving for. Just wish they would all shut up now, like Shmmeee says and let's all just get behind the new manager and the team and watch some decent attacking football for a change and get ourselves up that table sharpish.

Yes wiered that isn't it. We had no problem with Presley and Andy Thorne did we.

Good stuff that. Bring on the entertaining football. :wave:

I think you can get more than 4 of them in Barbara to be quite honest. At least that is the goss flying round the team room at the mo.
