yeah the bench is pretty horrendous.

There were people here during the window bragging the starting XI were automatic contenders without noticing the bench was full of bottom half fodder

yes but they’d made contact. in reality if it was feasible he’d go we should have had someone lined up. extremely poor planning

Are you suggesting we could sign a player better than Eccles to sit on the bench ?

 

[David O'Day]

That comment was not to be taken seriously! Ha.

He's bit.

As a part-time orthopaedic surgeon I can confirm he's out until January.

Whats our resident medical expert Gimoc say ?

 

[eastwoodsdustman]

If it’s his shoulder he’ll have to have surgery, will be months. It’s a massive concern

Should’ve had it done in the summer

 

[skybluegod]

Lose today and Rudoni out for a while and the season will absolutely implode

Are you okay mate?

 

[Matt smith]

Oh haha mate I’m just fuming at the joke of our bench

honestly we had all summer to recruit one winger

it’s an absolute farce

 

[Speedie's Head]

More of a concern is Eccles's fitness, he looked short of a yard last week to say the least. Presume we'll see Jamie at some point.

 

[Skybluecol]

Wow!! The amount of people writing off this game already is unreal

 

[Matt smith]

Are you okay mate?

No im not

As @Ccfcisparks correctly says, the squad depth is unbelievably poor

 

[Paul Anthony]

Whats our resident medical expert Gimoc say ?

Probably that he'll have to have his arm off and retire if the Sakamoto injury was anything to go by.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

we sign an actual attacking midfield/ number 10 would have been nice

 

[CCFCBat]

This is like when our season imploded when o hare was out injured , jesus christ

Didn’t we get to the playoff final that season. So hardly imploded

It's ok, I should definitely shoulder some of the blame!

As it stands we've got an ex PL player and PNE POTS sat on the bench!

we’ve had to throw him straight into the fire as the squad depth is so poor

Right , and Eccles is a solid championship midfielder ?not sure i follow

 

[Speedie's Head]

Easy to say sitting on skybluestalk , but the truth is the bid came in a day or 2 before deadline , the club didnt sit twiddling thumbs they will have tried to improve the squad and unless you want shit in for the sake of numbers then unfortunately the smaller squad will have to do

They needed the cash flow to pay for Woolfenden. We've not seen the benefit of that yet but we certainly will at some point.

Exactly

 

[b12345]

So what has Raphael done so far at a lower level?

We have defenders that scored goals and create problems up front. I'd prefer to put them further up front and replace them with other defenders than play someone not doing well enough at a lower level.

We've sent him do a team that doesn't play wingers. Fuck knows why they even sanctioned it

So you’d rather bring a defender on out of position? Thats mental

 

[SkyblueTexan]

If no Rudoni for an extended period, our season is over

 

[SkyBlueAussie]

Graham Potter sacked.

 

[Para1140]

Birminghams bench is better than their lineup in my opinion

Our bench is looking good for defending a 0-1 loss

Very surprised he got the nod over Allen.

 

[skybluegod]

No im not

I'm not disagreeing about the lack of depth in the forward area, but your first instinct is always so world ending, genuine concern, let's wait and see official news before imploding. I'm also certain we will be able to cope until Jan even if he's out till then.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

in reality we needed a number 10 and a winger. to argue that is clear delusion.

 

[Lamps]

Whats our resident medical expert Gimoc say ?

Rudoni is having his arm amputated to stop him missing games with a shoulder injury.

 

[Evo1883]

We are 6 games in mate , have a hot chocolate and relax

 

[CCFCBat]

Exactly

But we did have Hamer

Rudoni replacement?

 

[RoysterE17]

Lineup is weak as fuck! Summer window is biting us in the arse real quick!

Yeah sorry mate I’ve always been glass half empty, horrible outlook I know

Line up is fine depth is the issue
