The team for the old Papa Johns trophy run out against Lincoln on the 19th looks a bit tasty.

Pinched from the Bolton forum.
I don't think Derby are anything special so get the first goal and set the game up nicely.
…………………I’m sure I read the same cunning plan last week on the Posh forum.🐏😂

Pinched from The Posh forum.
DMAC on Twitter saying we’ve paid £1.6m in total for JCH (£1.2m fee plus £400k add-ons) and suggesting he’d want at least that to sell him.
Nobody is going to pay that, surely? So JCH stays?…………………………..well, can we? 🐏👍

Pinched from The Posh forum regards “the library” aka London Road.
Posh fan number 1 If you want the atmosphere of London road then go in london road.
If you want better seats and facilities then go in the other stands, you don't get both at posh
Posh fan number 2 Just to be clear the seats are actually quite painful in main stand and the facilities are s**t too.………………yep, shabby chic, spot on Posh fan number 2 😂👍
-
Thought the ref was excellent yesterday. 👍😂
-
Sat in the A block of the main stand, toilets bordering on primitive, refreshments non existent and the most uncomfortable minuscule 1950s wooden seats ever encountered!
But then again, a 4-2 win, great atmosphere, improved performance all round and a couple of promising young lads making their debuts……………..all in all a bloody good day out! 😁👍

This is my reply to a post by Ambitious on the summer thread who recommended this lad about a month ago.
Seems obviously cheesed off from continuous loans.
Like you say ex clubs supporters and managers seem to like the lad so it is rather surprising how nobody’s been interested in signing him permanently.Anyway, I read an article in the East Anglia Times taken from the Beautiful Game Podcast, seems to sum up his career so far.
Since I was 17/18, every season I've had a big injury.
I played one game at Sheffield Wednesday. I came on and in the first two minutes I got injured (quad).
At Ipswich I had back-to-back injuries (hamstring and quad). I missed six months of the season, so it's be tough to say the least.
The second injury came on the last day of my hamstring rehab. The next day I had been due to train with the team.
When that happened my head was gone. I didn't know what to do. Thankfully my family were there to pick me up.
It's been bad. All the time questioning myself. 'What am I doing wrong?' 'What do I need to change?'
This can't keep happening. I can't keep having month after month of not playing.
Shame really……………wish him well.
would be an excellent signing if he stayed fit.👍

I started looking into strikers who had a lot of early promise, but as of yet haven’t hit the ground running in senior football. One name caught my eye - Tyreece John-Jules.
A good size, athletically impressive but with the football ability to match. He started well for Ipswich last season, well liked by their fans, but injuries really cost him his chance of developing further. Now, there are rumours that he may join them permanently but I’d like to think we could jump in and offer him a more immediate route to regular football.
No idea what Arsenal want, but would assume he’s cheap and available. He’s in the last year of his contract and now wants somewhere to settle - https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/22461118/arsenal-transfer-news-tyreece-john-jules-ipswich/
In terms of value and upside, I doubt there will be many better options available to us this summer in that position.
If the Transfer Thread is anything to go by………we’ll done Ambitious.
would be an excellent signing

Look at those formations! Would be giving a few of the FM and FIFA armchair coaching legends palpitations!!
Right back, left back, right wing back, left wing back, centre half, outside left, outside right, inside left, inside right and a 6’ 2” battering ram Bill Curry type centre forward.
……………………..bloody hell, I feel old!

If the Marvin Johnson rumour came from that source then it's more likely we're signing Hank Marvin and Holly Johnson
Nope, definitely Marv Johnson…………....I’ve got loads of his records 👍

I posted the miss on his thread in ex-Rams.
We can bring our own youngsters through to miss EASY one on ones, if they did, why should we waste a spot on someone else's?
1 hour ago, RoyMac5 said:A really impressive showing from the youngster. He looked sharp, made the right runs in behind, and looked to get at the Bolton defence every chance he could.
Here’s a question …..you ever played the game at a decent level?

Liverpool Echo ratings for the Bolton v Everton friendly.
Lewis Dobbin - 8
A really impressive showing from the youngster. He looked sharp, made the right runs in behind, and looked to get at the Bolton defence every chance he could. He should have scored in the first half, but he sent the perfect message to his boss.
Looks like he’s going nowhere……shame, I’d have had him back, good luck to the lad

The story so far.
Just a few tweaks after the last couple of friendlies.
Well the back 6 is ✅Gotta play two up front in this league, so that’s Collins and Washington (at the moment)
Personally, Smith in front of the back three, get Bird further forward
Wildsmith.
Nelson. Bradley. Cashin.
Ward. Smith Elder.
Bird Hourihane
Collins Washington…………………….enough to get out of this league already. 😃👍

Of course Warne would rather have Clarke-Harris.
But there's not a chance that Peterborough would sell him to anyone for less than £2 million. Let alone to a rival.
I'd imagine nobody in League One can afford JCH. Probably a lot of Champ teams too. (I'm sure I read WBA were linked with a £4 Millon move)
Probably the reason he hasn't gone anywhere yet.
To quote Posh manager Darren Ferguson.
“If someone did bid £5 million for Jonno – and I’m not for one minute saying that someone has – he’d be sold.”
Sunderland enquired in January…………………..😯

Perhaps the players haven't got the hang of Warneball yet. In the interview post Salford match he said something about playing the ball across the back three and how it was pointless if not done quickly. And during the game sometimes we did and other times not. Maybe they've not got the hang of it yet, we shall see.
Yep,……………….let’s cut out the middle man! 😁👍

Pinched from the Huddersfield forum regards Rhodes.
Hopefully he gets a decent L1 club that plays two up front and he can start banging them in again. He's looked decent for us even playing as a loan striker but asking him to tear around up front on his own just doesn't play to his strengths. Be good to see him scoring again at the right club. Scored some vital goals for us in his second spell.…………………………………..seems a fair comment. 👍🐏

Looks like they're wearing a cheap flimsy lanyard that is blowing about in the wind.
Coupled with all the haphazard lines/pattern, it's far too messy for my liking! Give me symmetry any day!You want symmetry, Umbro Boston away kit…………………I like it.👍

I’d rather take his mate that 19 year old Portuguese lad who scored a hat trick for Man City against us in that Pappa Johns thingy last season Carlos Borges.
I’ll wait for G of C to find his goal scoring figures, gotta feeling they must be pretty good.👍
