    IlsonDerby reacted to Crewton in Match Thread: vs Northampton Town (a)   
    His key contributions (goals + assists) per minute played are only significantly bettered by May, Cole, Martin, Rhodes, Hoskins, Poku, Lane and Stockley. His figure is roughly the same as Dion Charles. So I think classing him as poor value for money is extremely harsh, though I would say he does have games where he just doesn't shine, but that sometimes is due to the service he gets.

    Wildsmith deserved that rollicking. He started coming to get it. Was clear favourite to get it and then ran back leaving cash to deal with it and it took a bad bounce and hit him and went out for a corner.

    Gone from being a beast vs young skinny lads to being a beast in men’s football. Long May it continue.

    Who are these ‘bargain basement’ players you’re alluding to? 
     
    Every player we have signed would have had a queue of suiters in this division lining up for them. 
     
    Basement bargain signings were what Rooney was using in the relegation season.

    Id suggest that post covid the market is completely different. Most transfers in league 1 happen with no money changing hands at all. The odd transfer fee paid by traditional championship clubs but we’d have our hands snapped off for NML, TB, CN, CE, KW, EA, JC at this level.

    I wish he'd been as aggressive with the guy that crossed the ball for their goal. Poor defending from someone so experienced.

    My opinion of Warne as a manager is well known and he is what he is so I’m not going to go over those talking points again. 
     
    I’m sick of slating the woeful tactics so My anger yesterday is directed at the players. Can any of them come off the pitch with any sort of credit? 
     
    Their goal was Sunday league defending. Bradley letting him get the cross in too easy. Cashin and Sibley breakdown in communication allowing the scorer the freedom of half of the pitch. 
     
    Passing accuracy was abysmal. Even the passes that went to our players were always causing the receiver to turn back and collect it from behind them or to stretch for it. Wasted the 3 real opportunities we had with awful finishing.
     
    Constant hoofed balls up rather than the composure to play it through a pretty crap league 1 press. 
     
    Honestly a good chunk of the team yesterday printed their own P45s for the end of this season regardless of division.

    This is fine if we’re talking about an inexperienced defender learning a lesson the hard way. We’re talking about an experienced pro who was part of a promotion to the premier league last season. He should be thoroughly embarrassed that he couldn’t control himself and in doing so has left the team with 2 centre backs for the next 3 matches. I’d pay him off at the end of this season and cut our losses - dread to think what championship strikers would do to him. 
     
    This isn’t just about the sending off either. Constantly passing it behind the player he was playing it to. Constant poor touches including needing Wildsmith to rush out and spare his blushes to stop a repeat of match day 1. 
     
    These mistakes shouldn’t be happening from a player at this stage in his career who has dropped down a level.

    He wouldn’t be in my team so I agree with everything you say. I wouldn’t be silly enough to play three CB’s in the first place.
