Some nice moments on the pitch. 
Were working hard enough, lively and creating a few chances, but it's just not quite clicking, understanding not there between the players, not knowing where each other will be, and presumably a lack of sharpness. 
Could and should be a couple of goals up. 
Cambridge pretty poor really, the kind of match we should be totally in command of.
Love Nyambe so far, starting to become more solid defensively. Fornah has given us legs in midfield and we have threats from wide positions. 
Just need a striker or partnership to provide a figurehead for it, but I am a bit more optimistic than previously. 

To actually stop the match for Vickers. Never seen that before.

If Warne doesn’t play Wilson on Saturday……

Presume this is out of the unspent Johnson money that Warne was talking about. Most likely 6 months as; 
a) we may want to reallocate that money back to a winger in January so need to stay flexible.
b) Warne would be honest about him being cover, not being a nailed on starter, so January probably suits both. 
c) Also very much a full back from what I know, not someone who will create much going forward, so doesn't fit our long term squad goals.
That said I think he's a decent player, better than league one,
Comes with his own chant too
"Ryan Nyambe, he drinks the vodka, he drinks the jager, his xxxxs xxxxing massive" 

I'd guess you're about right - Would say Embo further back in a midfield 3 and Barkz/Sib playing a bit narrower off Collins

With 3 yrs on their contracts it's probably a million quid pay off.  We'll have to wait till next year unless we stick them on gardening leave and force the issue by continuing to pay them on a monthly basis and bring in someone else. 
The most turgid, insipid dross I've watched in 40 years bar the last 10 games of 07/08 where they clearly couldn't give a s***.
The amount of injuries we're now getting is insane as well.  What the hell are they doing in training, assault courses

Nah. They'll get promoted.

I can only describe Paul Warnes tactics and gameplan as like a man trying to do a sit down wee.

I will pretend this is not just a thread that is yet another pile on...
It's hard to quantify 'better' when points are the only real barometer everyone agrees on. Two wins and suddenly we are in the top 6 and it all looks different in that regard.
As for the rest, personally the football isn't as bad as everyone is harping on about. Today's match thread really painted a reality I wasnt seeing, it wasnt the worst football I've ever seen that's for sure and IF we were winning it would be ok for me.
We are able to win away from home.
The harmony in the team/club MAY be better with the players he's brought in (and definitely wouid be if we were winning).
They MAY be fitter (they looked fitter today IMO).
He didn't splash out on £1-2m players as some fans were calling for, so I'm guessing he's helping to improve the finances.
He's got some calls right (Waghorn, Forsyth) and some signings are starting to look decent.
All irrelevant though. If we start winning and are top 6 he will be doing 'ok' ....and if we aren't or we do 'ok' but then fail miserably in the play offs he will be gone anyway.

Missing this one to take the mother to the theatre - doesn't sound like I'm missing much. 
Our injury record is getting terrible. 
You kind of hope that an injury in the right position forces us to pick the right team or formation. 
Let's hope Embleton and Sibs give PW a bit of food for thought anyway. 

I'm not jumping on it. I'm 100% with you. Even when we get a result playing like this I'm a bit disappointed. It's the difference between sleeping with a woman, or knocking one out yourself. Yeah the end result is the same, but can you really say you had a good time?

Everything that could go wrong today has. Just one of them. 

At this point I’d rather lost 5-1 than 2-1 put TJJ, Barks, Radcliffe. Get all the attackers on

Smart team selection. 
Cash left out following what must have been a draining few days. He'll have a couple of weeks now to get his head straight again. 
Elder seems a better choice than Bradley right now. 
Looking forward to seeing Fornah, but talk about tough game to make your debut.
Might need a little bit of luck or individual brilliance to get something from this one.

Buzzing?

A squad on paper that should be competing for top 6.
Will the players gel? Will the manager be brave enough to drop certain players if others fit better, (no England manager has done that since Alf Ramsey for instance).
There's a lot of luck/chance/refs decisions etc that go into a promotion season, the only way us fans can influence it is by giving our players confidence and support when they need it and making it hostile for the away team.
 

Haul anchor...HMS Piss The League is setting sail.
Until we cop a spanking at Bolton and it's mutiny. Warne Out. Boooo!

You are Joe Strummer and I claim my chocolate frog.
