It’s fair to quote his positive stats and acknowledging he can be a game winner, while also being massively frustrated when he performs nowhere near the level he should. In fact, that’s what makes it even more frustrating and prompts such strong reactions. He needs to do more - because we know...

He is Stokes manager now, naturally his comments are going to be subjective to his own team. His team also lost the game fairly late one. And it’s against his former Boss, who he likely holds resentment for. So he’s going to be emotive due to the loss, plus the factors above. If we lost to...

Always been technically great. Back end of last season and from the start of this, he’s utilised this more as an attacking outlet. And now, it’s fair to say, he’s very much mitigating his defensive frailties too. Massive redemption arc and he’s deserves big credit for going from being strongly...

Simms has to start next game. Whether that’s Wright LW or benched I don’t mind. But another anonymous performance today.

Wright lives on his back foot.

Called it. Wright LW and Simms CF.

Appreciate it. Sorry for another question; busy to the point it’s a ballache to get served?!

Anything on the away fan pubs? Ended up in a pub with decent beer, but full of home fans.

Lati also starting, in honour of MR.

LOTS of Police around.

Posted about it before but their RB (Tchamadeu) had EMC in his pocket last year. He struggles against strong pacey FB’s. So we definitely need him on his game today.

Mentioned it earlier in the thread, but definitely looking forward to an away day. Found a craft beer pub which is open near the station so heading there before a more game day pub. Where are people heading / what are the away pubs today?

Re Wrexham, we also shouldn’t downplay the fact there was clearly an illness going round the camp, so I suspect a few weren’t 100%. That will make a difference, especially at our level. Cliche, but small margins and all that. Definitely a tough game ahead today, I’d take a draw but the...

Titantic Brewery is decent too

Also, other than the jubilation of that Thomas goal, my other memory of the home game last year was their RB (Tchamadeu) absolutely having EMC’s number. When against a physical and pacey FB EMC can struggle, so I really hope he’s up for it on Saturday as we saw how important his role is to the...

Haven’t been able to get to many away games since my children were born, only a handful a season these days, so I’m massively excited for Saturday!! The game itself will be tense, but with the game expected to be tight and the MR factor I’m expecting a great atmosphere. I think it’ll be a...

I put it in the match thread on the night; that was easily one of the best pre game atmospheres I’ve been involved in. The Enemy nailed it, the minutes silence was perfect, PUSB was the best in a long time, the light show/fireworks were well integrated and even the usual cheesy phone lights on...

I think I watched a different game; he was incredibly frustrating again last night. Has the ability to be head and shoulders above any striker in this league, but doesn’t show it enough. The anonymity is annoying. As are the offsides and half arsing 50/50 challenges. I get he isn’t a target...

I do get the logic re less space for attackers to move, and it’s only the first time we’ve conceded so no need to panic too much. But I would love us to leave two up, it gives them something to worry about and we’ve seen how long and accurate Rushworths throws can be. We also saw our players...

Yea, he deserves some recognition. Not a song, but a clap at an appropriate time. I will forever have an affinity with Robins. Those of us who did the “journey” from that horrendous L1 relegation season, to numerous Wembley trips and a penalty away from the a prem, I don’t think will ever...
