Yes!!!

So glad Simms has a hattrick

Just an observation but Torp has shitted out of several challenges/headers now.

Good don’t need him injured again

Goals asside he's getting stuck in, winning balls, looking strong.

And scoring a hattrick lol

 

[Paul Anthony]

Nicely followed up by Ellis, read it well.

 

[skybluegod]

Can't remember who on here was recommending we sign the Maidstone keeper after the Ipswich game, but this just shows why you don't buy a player based on one performance.

 

[Martin180]

Could be massive for Simms moving forward this game

 

[napolimp]

Get in Simms!

 

[JSL]

Simms has been immense. He is on fire!

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Good anticipation that

 

[fatso]

Fuck me Simms!!!!! What's he on?

 

[NorthernWisdom]

Good anticipation that

Also why their keeper is playing at the level he is mind, all looked a bit laboured!

 

[Liquid Gold]

"ooo we should be worried"

"what about sutton"

"what about worcester"

"we are coventry city"

piece of piss

 

[mark82]

Really chuffed for Simms.

 

[napolimp]

How many do we need before we can throw the youngsters on? These lot are going to get later and later with the tackles as the game goes on.

 

[Boicey]

Well done fella. Great chance to score goals and he’s taking it.

 

[SIR ERNIE]

Will do him a power of good.

 

[The Nomad]

We're playing like Preston here.

 

[NorthernWisdom]

Think I've cursed Tavares mind, he's been shit since I said he was doing well!

 

[stevefloyd]

I thought Tavares was supposed to br quick unless he's lost it since injury

 

[Tommo1993]

Remember some of you making their keeper sound like prime Buffon a few weeks back…

 

[letsallsingtogether]

Simms is shit get him off
Even Vikor never got a hat trick

 

[Skyblueweeman]

I reckon we might be safe with another 3!

Well... Astute anyway

Terminal level as in the highest level he’s capable of playing at.

he’s looking poor against national league opposition, so fair to assume he wouldn’t set that league alight based on his performance - to be fair to the lad however he is playing out of position I think?

both he and Kelly have been below the standard of the rest of the team tonight in my eyes

 

[Saddlebrains]

Tavares really is a national league player

 

[JSL]

Tavares has given the ball away too easily several times now

Kellys going to be rusty as fuck tbh

He's lightyears above Tavares as a player

 

[Tommo1993]

Respect them lads, respect them.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

There's something about Torp. I think he's going to be some player for us.

 

[Great_Expectations]

Appreciate the level of opposition, but Kelly has looked very very assured in there. It’s giving Torp freedom to play more freely too.

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

I know it's.omly Maidstone, but Simms is looking on fire tonight.

He’s carrying on his form from Preston - he was our best player

 

[coop]

There left full back looks good to be fair.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Good don’t need him injured again

It doesn't always work like that. If you've ever played football before you'd know going into tackles half-heartedly is more likely to get you injured.

He's done it several times. As we're 3 up I would look to bring him off at HT.

 

[Nick]

Their keeper catches the ball from corners

Agreed. You would expect this level of performance. But it shows having an actual CM rather than a CB player there, enables other things. But it is also Maidstone.
