Woolfenden can’t play for another team - he’s played for Ipswich and us this season.
Wrexham signed Conor Coady in the summer for £2m, he played 5 games and they’ve realised he’s not the guy and loaned him out. If they feel Woolf is not the guy they should have done the same if we really wanna get promoted. Wrexham are going for it

Not the form, Greek man once said " doing same thing, getting same results".. will Lampard ever learn?Yeah, bad form won't last forever, but the niggling thing is that we are winning at home and losing away. Kind of points to us doing something wrong away in the way we set up doesn't it?
I do think that's what's frustrating a lot of fans.
Something is inherently wrong in how we are going about away games.
We need to pick up some points away from home to take the pressure off the home games. We can't expect to win everyone of those.
Wolf is a good player and a leader, he can't do that , sitting on his arseWoolfenden can’t play for another team - he’s played for Ipswich and us this season.
I don't get what the issue with Woolfy is. Fair enough he had a shaky game at Wrexham but he wasn't the only player and the few other appearances he's had I think he's looked decent. Why would we fork out £4m for him to just rot. He's got promotion experience twice. The failings of Lampard for sticking to the same players over and over is pissing me right off. Jamie Allen isn't going to create or get goals but he'll graft his bollocks off and protect the goal. Honestly if Lampard sticks with the same side and the unthinkable happens and we lose to Oxford there's going to be some serious noise. I think we've got a LB lined up and Brau or Bidwell will be sold and hopefully we land Onyeka or another quality CM because why would we let Kai go who personally I think did okay.Wolf is a good player and a leader, he can't do that , sitting on his arse
Hope you are right but I would not be surprised if no one comes inI don't get what the issue with Woolfy is.

Kai went out on loan and we recalled Isaac Moore who plays defensive mid field. Guess that's our plan BI don't get what the issue with Woolfy is.

We need Monday to be a day to cheer us up and be a boost for the squad, with us all thinking that it's good business.Anyway, somehow technically there’s still a 6 point gap to 3rd, hopefully at least one in by Monday and you never now, might be all we need, staying Positive, but it’s getting harder
I think that Southampton game you mentioned produced some real niggle around the club, something provoked that sending off and aftermath of the game, possibly the media treatment of us afterwards?Unfortunately, JDS has been found out a bit as the season has worn on
He was really playing well earlier on in the campaign, but now the whole team has been studied and opposition sides are now learning how to exploit our weaknesses and target them, it's plain to see that Dasilva isn't quick enough for the way we play. We are lacking a bit of pace when the ball breaks down and the opposition breaks away.
MVE is rapid and can get back from breakdowns further up the field when we lose the ball, but Dasilva can't do the same.
I honestly believe to play the way we are playing at the moment, we need a LB who is as quick as Milan.
It's a shame. I like Dasilva, but he's been caught out a number of times. He also really struggles to cut out any crosses too.
As I said before, we could really do with a CM, a LB AND a CB (if Woolfenden isn't going to be considered).
Thing is with Woolfenden too, is that he also lacks pace.
Can't see how we can fix everything with what's left of the window
Only other option is for FL to tweak the tactics. If opposing teams have learned a strategy to play us, then we need a new strategy of our own, especially away from home.
We need to learn to adapt when necessary.
In short We lost it!I think that Southampton game you mentioned produced some real niggle around the club, something provoked that sending off and aftermath of the game, possibly the media treatment of us afterwards?
You'd have to assume that proved the team was behind him at that point, I think there's some friction here, speculating but I think the Fraser's moving on to other ventures has and is affecting things., still to sign the extension,Haji too?In short We lost it!
100% - his blocking of transfers hasn’t helped either.It's on King now. He didn't back the manager at all in the summer. Now we have a 3 month sprint from, despite recent results, a good position. Just fucking spend some money to kick us on a bit ffs. Best ever chance and we're pissing it away penny pinching.
Bamford100% - his blocking of transfers hasn’t helped either.
There is zero evidence of him blocking transfers. In fact he sanctioned 6 signings in the last 2 windows and Lampard has chosen not to play any of them. That isnt on King.100% - his blocking of transfers hasn’t helped either.
Bamford would clearly have been a useful option. The likes of Makama and Kone have really shown the strength and hold up our strikers lack. Despite streaky patches of goal scoring, I still have my issues with them. At his best, Wright is obviously the best one, but he needs to wake the fuck up too.100% - his blocking of transfers hasn’t helped either.
This is on the manager though.Unfortunately, JDS has been found out a bit as the season has worn on

Bamford coming in would have been key for us in games where it was tight and we missed key chances that meant we did not pick up three points, I’m thinking of games like Charlton and PNE.Bamford would clearly have been a useful option.

Kone is one I’m shocked we didn’t look at considering the cost. I know he hasn’t had a brilliant season but seems to fit the model we have perfectly.Bamford would clearly have been a useful option.

Should have been all over it.Kone is one I’m shocked we didn’t look at considering the cost. I know he hasn’t had a brilliant season but seems to fit the model we have perfectly.
The worrying thing there is, even if Brau and Woolfenden were bought in as back up ... They're not even that nowSince Lampard came in with the 2 windows so far we’ve signed:
Grimes
Patterson
Brau
Woolf
KKH
Rushworth
Minny
Esse
Markelo
Now the problem I see is only Grimes and Rushworth have established themselves as 1st team starters. Markelo too early to tell.
352 does not work with Grimes
Something weird with Woolfenden, as if he can't get a game over Kitching, who's so out of form and bereft of confidence that he's a hindrance, then something must be wrong.
Brau was a punt and probably not expected to be anything other than a bit-part player this season. Woolfenden was not, he was intended as an immediate first team player, same as Thomas and Kitching.The worrying thing there is, even if Brau and Woolfenden were bought in as back up ...

Frank doesn’t fancy Wolf that’s clear but let’s be honest Wolf hasn’t helped himself with his performances in the team either.
Yep, Thomas and Kitchen are the definition of when they are good, they are very good, but when they are bad...Not really a cat in hell's chance of it happening, but I think we could do with three players.
We need a CM and a LB, but if FL isn't going to play Woolfenden, we could do with a really decent centre back too
Lately there have been far too many mistakes from Thomas and Kitching.
I think 3 excellent signings could really change our fortunes. Not going to happen though, so really hoping for Onyeka or a really good alternative.
Think that may well be it
I totally agree with this and was just talking about this separately, how can a player who got promoted with Ipswich, who was the second highest appearance maker in defence for a team promoted to the Premier League, not getting a game for us now?Something weird with Woolfenden, as if he can't get a game over Kitching, who's so out of form and bereft of confidence that he's a hindrance, then something must be wrong.
