Yeah, no chance he comes here at this stage of his career, on £40k pw, to sit on the bench.
You’re Keiffer Moore and you go can go Wrexham to be top dog or Cov’s Plan B… Who do you choose? Pretty sure Wrexham pay more than us too.
BTA, Haji and Simms have 19 goals between them, not signing Moore or Morris is not worth crying over.
Id go as far as saying all 3 goals are not conceded if Thomas is playing instead of Wolfeden.
Beau probably needs to adapt to the Championship and probably England as whole, it is slightly odd that Bidwell seemed to be 3rd choice on Day 1. Perhaps he’s struggling to settle in?and I’d say also / more so if JDS was on instead of Bidwell
I love Bidwell but his legs have gone and he’s not at the level or at least wasn’t last night to chase and press like we’ve been doing this season, and his attacking threat was zero.
I assume Brau isn’t up to the task…
The wolf had one man to mark that wad his job as roy keane would say. The 3 goals were all very avoidable Wrexham weren't great if we gave am extra 5% effort we win that game by 3+ goalsLetting a donkey like him score a perfect hat trick does leave a very bitter taste , we were never going to go a whole season without losing, but to lose to Wrexham and him getting 3 , still irks me after a good nights sleep.
Wrexham’s xG was 1.41 versus 1.56 for us (FotMob). They didn’t cut us to pieces and as you point out, subpar defending lets us down. Particularly from Bidwell and Wolfenden.The wolf had one man to mark that wad his job as roy keane would say.

Is carthorse a term used for any target man type forward ?He’s a carthorse. Below average championship striker.
I'm sure he'd like to play against Woolfie every week too! How can the lad not be fit yet, he really seemed to tire in the last 30 mins and we had no options on the bench. It doesn't look like he can jump much either. Luckily Woolfie doesn't have to!Moore showed all the qualities that are lacking in Simms.
Lack of match time is one thing, but to me he just looked so slow and lacked any fight,I'm sure he'd like to play against Woolfie every week too!

I'm not sure I agree about Bidwell. He needs more time on the pitch for the occasions that we need him to play. I think he should probably rotate more often to give JDS more of a break. EMC doesn't cover that position well enough and it can expose either of them sometimes. I do agree that our left is not as productive as the right!Also our left flank looked woeful, Bidwell is well past his prime and we know EMC is useless at defending
A couple of years ago Bidwell would get tight on his winger and let him know he was there, now he stands off about 3 or 4 yards and doesn't put his foot in.I'm not sure I agree about Bidwell.

I suggested both and Carlton Morris. All 3 would have been excellent to compete with WrightThink I mentioned in the summer but there was a bit of laughter around the idea of him or Mcburne.
If we are going to play direct as we have been, need more from our strikers when our backs are against it.
Simms was brilliant against Portsmouth for it
.............who carthorsed his way to a perfect hat trickHe’s a carthorse. Below average championship striker.
He averages 1 goal in 3 over his career (16 seasons as a pro in league football) not to mention countless assists.He’s a carthorse. Below average championship striker.
I thought so at the time and Tats clearly did too, but watching it back and, in the context of the match where the ref let quite a lot go, I wasn't really convinced.Third goal still maintain Tatsu was fouled in the build up. Small margins.
Not compared to our thorough breds?Moore showed all the qualities that are lacking in Simms.
The way he mixed it up with our two centre halves and threw Kitching to the ground, out battled Woolfenden and scored a hat trick, all while making sure his hair band stayed in place was really quite impressive.Not compared to our thorough breds?
Keiffer Moore and Morris both scoring hattricks will have the usual suspects out.Moore is 33 and on huge wages for the Champ.
Typical Hollywood signing for their manager. Short term investment with no return.
Some days forwards have a blinder.
We attack as a default position, so there will always be spaces at the back.
First goal Kitch nearly intercepted or could have played him offside if more aware. Wolfie was poor for the second goal. Third goal still maintain Tatsu was fouled in the build up. Small margins.
We have had a lot of luck at the back this season. Sometimes it is just not your day.
Yeah, for Wigan, Barnsley, Rotherham etc etc.He averages 1 goal in 3 over his career (16 seasons as a pro in league football) not to mention countless assists.
Not a bad record for a carthorse.
Yea. Teams that didn't create a whole lot of chances or dominate games, Which makes his record even more impressive.Yeah, for Wigan, Barnsley, Rotherham etc etc.
They also played against shite.
Nah, too old, too expensive and no resale value.Would 100% have Moore here. He’s what you want Simms to be.
Nah, too old, too expensive and no resale value.
Simms still has time to improve but I get what you mean.
Football doesn't seem to produce many players like Moore anymore.
Dementia beckons with all the heading.
Vic used to avoid it if possible, but seems to do it more at Arsenal.
Keiffer Moore would be a 3rd top scorer with his current tally but on the double the wages.I don’t support City to make money though. If he was available and we had the cash he’d be my number two striker and I’d use him away all the time.
… that sounded far more sexual than I intended.
