Having now watched this back... Thought we lacked a bit of commitment to make a challenge in the area for their goal, everyone seemed intent on standing off and letting them play (possibly where we'll miss Williams / O'Connor). Thought the 1 on 1 looked offside, although hard to judge, got away with...
Was always going to take time for a largely completely new squad to gel, especially as the majority came towards the end of the window. Thought we were weak at the corner for the first, Williams being left to mark two players and were caught ball watching for the second. Marriott looks good up to up...
Nothing wrong with the Marriott signing - knows the division, can score goals and can be a right pain in the arse up top. If, as Brogue, intimates we are still looking for a bigger forward to compliment Marriott and MOM then we should end the window with decent options up top. I see him more as a r...
Delighted we've signed a decent finisher, I just hope he's able to hold the ball up as well. We're clearly not planning to move to excessive wing play, with the ball being lumped into the striker's head (or we'd have gone for more of your Carroll type). I think that Marriott should fit in with the w...
Companies house today have issued a new communication titled resolutions. Pretty certain that these are something issued periodically (certainly did in May last year) summarising the working structure of the company, potentially some insights to how the business will run but not anything too exciti...
Slightly concerned that Carey may be one of those laid off (wages and surplus to requirements with JJ now in the house), I feel he has a lot to offer in terms of bringing players in. Realistically I feel that with a nearly blank slate in terms of playing squad we should be able to build a squad that...
I'm not certain I'm building a team around him. He played most of last season through necessity. For me Wing further up the field is the best option, ideally with a mobile defensive midfielder behind him (Craig). If we can get big money off Wrexham, then great - use it to balance the books and bring...
was it written by someone with autism? it says one of the three clubs interested in him is Reading :| what a load of old guff Mbengue’s desire is to move to a club higher than the third division which could rule out a move to Reading. I’ve greatly enjoyed your reporting on the takeover, however it ...
Wouldn't be surprise if the following all depart, either for fees or otherwise... Garcia - OoC? Mbengue - will go champ or overseas Wing - surely one that will be looked at by lower champ teams Savage - as above Knibbs - as above I'd obviously love to keep all of them. Realistically, whatever happen...
Biggest issue seems to be playing Wing so deep. Perhaps starting Carroll in that role, putting Wing up the pitch with Savage and having Knibbs either up front or as a winger ahead of anyone!
Kelv and Garcia both hooked as there was a real risk of a second yellow.
Can't disagree with the red, I hate time wasting and am always whinging when it's done to us - seemed a fair cop. However I would question what our senior players were doing, they should've got someone else to take it who wasn't on a yellow, that's the bit that frustrated me - brainless.
Observations… Birmingham must have had a long journey, given the time they spent lying down. Kelvin is a better winger than number 9. Wareham was excellent when he came on, won more in the air than “Big Kelv” and held the ball up better. Campbell is average and seems utterly disinterested. Would rat...
The worst I can recall us playing this season. Campbell looked like he was running in treacle through the first half, Savage's passing was below his normal high standard and Craig was a complete liability - ran under the ball for the goal. We still look disorganised in defence, Wing comes back to he...
