  1. Correct - the guy who sits next to me has a season ticket and said he won’t be back until Warne is gone
  2. I thought it was tactical to have as few shots on target as is reasonably possible in a first half then let the opponents have the ball for half an hour then go kick and rush right at the end of games or so the 7 year old said recently near me at the games.
  3. Between Wildsmith and Collins I would say Wildsmith is the better goalkeeper and better investment whilst Collins is or should be cover but he kicks the ball further Do I want an upgrade on both absolutely
  4. Yes on paper or 3 centre half’s and a full back or it could easily be said 4 centre half’s
  5. Both options sounds appealing 😂
  6. Facts are useful but you haven’t shown any by the way point 2 well Bradley can’t really run quick enough to catch most forwards and he isn’t selected to play ahead of Nelson and Cashin which suggests he is last choice point 3 recent good form ? - being barely functional doesn’t suggest good form and only being selected basically for a back three suggests limited ability to play in a partnership point 4 well was that even a foul? Was it even in the box? All semantics Davies being a better at 39 probably edges the best value but this is a forum of fans opinions and I respect yours whilst not agreeing with them.
  7. Whilst I can’t stand his style of football it was right to give him the season although his absolute scatter gun approach to signing players concerned me greatly. Yes in terms of the opposition this year certainly looked like the easiest/poorest league imaginable but remember he has 3 promotions from this league so it must have been just as poor on a least 3 occasions before.
  8. I have had my season ticket over 40 years so I will buy one anyway but I also buy one for my mate so not so cheap, I totally understand people deliberating about buying one when faced with travelling long distances especially if what they are watching is considered football garbage. For me this season has been interesting because for various reasons ( bereavement, Hospital stays, holidays ) I have missed 6 home fixtures and it hasn’t bothered me in the slightest compared to all the previous seasons where missing one game would be tragic. I won’t be buying mine until the last week though
  9. Good for him, great last season for us shame the other seasons couldn’t match our hopes
  10. He has a stubborn streak doesn’t he - thinking 3 centre half’s is the way to go even at home whatever it costs the team elsewhere in the selected team. Does he have favourites? Well it seems to appear so Does he give youngsters a chance, even in none sense cup games - not really Does he sign players with huge recent injury records - absolutely is he a good judge of a player ? - depends on your view point, use Bradley as an example - past 30 signed on high wages and looked not very good at all and fairly incapable of playing in a back 4 and when you compare to a Curtis Davies who played for very little for us in the past two seasons who never looked useless and positionally sound ( no surprise he is helping Cheltenham away from the relegation spots) it's all about opinions but I think a lot of our players look as miserable as they can be weather or not they are playing or not
  11. The word was can - at left back there is more chance of him actually receiving the football to have opportunities to do either the way we play
  12. One thing that has irritated me all season has been when an opposing player decides to have a lie down with the trainer on our whole team basically walks off the pitch to be replaced by about 6 or 7 people in grey tracksuits who must claim to be a coach or something and after the minimum five minutes they return to the pitch with yet another set of instructions. Well last night I saw about 6-7 of our players simply staying on the pitch in their positions, I have no idea if that means something but it something different to look at
  13. 100% totally sums me up as well
  14. I wonder how many supporters would have selected that back four last night based on what we have seen this season with who was available? For me the strongest and balanced back four available would have been Nyambe Nelson Cashin Sibley and yes Sibley could be a potential weak link it hasn’t really transpired that way when he has played and not to mention he can cross a ball and shoot.
  15. He went to QPR on loan last season so that’s not true, our manager openly stated that he didn’t want players like Martin when asked because he wants one that run around a lot and are good chaps and make him a coffee. Why would he want a Chris Martin who has demonstrated the highest goals ratio to minutes played in this league and controls the football and lays it off to others making forward midfield runs - but then again our midfielders aren’t allowed to do that.
  16. Next season we will have worse players is the depressing statement and the better players of a football are leaving or wanted away from Warneball for whatever reason given - McGoldrick to Notts county in a league below, Knight and Bird to Bristol city for goodness sake whilst NML has kept us away from the bottom half of this league of dreadful non football
  17. I thought it was deliberate to start with half a team playing in positions that they are not as good as in their best positions! Maybe it is so that he can tell them to change the team shape every ten minutes because he has got it wrong again
  18. Did he really say that? I hope the interviewer followed up on that one !
  19. He doesn’t know how to play any football - let’s hope we get promoted somehow and he can leave
  20. Actually we held a sweepstake tonight to guess the minute we would have an effort on target the winner was a mate who said 43rd minute whilst it was the 39 minute- most of us went for the second half around 70 minutes
  21. I said it at the beginning of the season and got moaned at - At home we have been ok about twice whilst losing to two league two sides in the cups as well - try selling season tickets to watch that garbage again.We have the players to actually play real football and look decent
  22. Absolute Dross Cashin played well enough Madness from Wildsmith and beyond poor from Wilson on the back pass and Bradley was allowed by Charlton to have the ball because they knew he would lose it and so easily outpaced
  23. Not fair on Luton they got 30 point deduction and non league so I suspect they will hold no sympathy and they couldn’t appeal either
