18 goals?! That’s less than 20 goals so he must be an average striker...

Awkward. He scored 14 goals last season, more than any of our lot.

We were pressing high all game and they were sat back. Southend had 1 shot of note in the first half. We nearly caught them out several times at the back.

I would happy with Gooden, he scored 14 goals last season and you'd like to think he can carry that on. But, at 28, we'd be getting a player who may be at the peak of his performance. Potentially a good short to medium option for us.

I went with my mate and his dad, they stopped going after relegation to L1. Saddening really because those two got me to go to the games because I couldn’t go alone as a kid. Since I’ve come back from uni, I’ve started to take my little brother! You do notice the same people go to all the...

I’ve never actually been in the casino... does anyone actually go there for just a few beers?

I imagine there are some corporates who like to spend a bit in there and a couple of hundred quid to them is nothing. Then you’ve got the away fans who treat it as a day out and go wild! You don’t really go to a casino unless you’re willing to spend a bit!

Having worked in the security industry in the past, you’d be surprised how much info you’re given. Some of those points are pretty common sense. The issues with stadium sponsorship have been reported for a while now. The rest is common sense - local businesses are not going to be happy with the...

Marosi, 7 - good save at the end and looked rather assured to me Dabo, 6 - did alright, needs to be forward a bit more McFadzean, 9 - really good debut, headed everything away, organised the team and really led from the back Rose, 7 - dodgy start but made up for that with some good defending...

We’re playing 4-3-3, there’s no real need for a CAM at the moment.

It’s definitely 4-3-3 We’ve created a few half chances, Hiwula should’ve scored. But, was denied by a combination of a weak finish and decent last ditch defending.

Irrelevant. Considering you alluded to transfer fees in judging players... we spent £1m on McKenzie, that didn’t not make him a good player. I share your concerns about the players we’ve let go, but you’ve judged most of our signings before they’ve played a game. You could be right...

Compare Allen and Bayliss from last season: Allen scored 8 goals, Bayliss scored 3. Bayliss had 1 more assist.

By your logic: A striker in L1 with 8 goals is worth £1million? Is Hiwula or Ched Evans worth more than Chaplin? No. A winger with 5 goals, 5 assists in L1 is worth £1.2m? Again, is Hiwula or Sean McConville worth more than Thomas? No. A midfielder with 3 goals, 3 assists in L1 worth £2m...

Why's that a problem? Allen scored 8 goals last season, more than double Bayliss and has played in the Championship. Thomas scored 5, which I think Kastaneer and/or Jobello will equal, Kastaneer has had two 1 in 4 seasons in the Netherlands. Both the foreign wingers were capped internationally...

Foreign imports tend to be a lot cheaper than domestic players. So there's the possibility that we could get a bargain. With Thomas (Chaplin and Bayliss too), as with all young players, lot of his transfer fee would be based on potential ability than actual ability right now. We've gone for...

You’d have to assume we’ve got a nice sell-on fee to have sold for 1.9 or 2m. Down the line, this deal may work out to be better than had we let him go for his rumoured release clause of £3m. Hoping Bayliss smashes it for PNE, as we’ll see the benefits down the line. Still bitterly...

Bayliss’ release clause was £3m...

Has Wakefield even made an appearance in pre-season? Let alone a first team starter. Bright boosted us undoubtedly, but he was only here for half a season last year. With or without him, we’re a top half team. Had Bright been with us from Game 1 last season, we would’ve finished in the...

It’s been a long week at work haha
