    We shouldn’t start getting cocky. Lot of talk on Monday night about ‘if we’d won tonight but lost against Morecambe then people wouldn’t be happy’ (or some such silly rationalising).  Perfectly possible to lose both games.  Need to up the tempo and aggression significantly from Monday.

    VulcanRam got a reaction from SKRam in v Morecambe (H) - Predictions   
    They've won 4 out of the last 5, scoring 14 goals, but they were all at home and all against teams around them in the league. Still, 5 against Burton and 5 against Bristol Rovers at the weekend is impressive. 
    Away from home, their last four games have been against Lincoln, Port Vale, Plymouth and Ipswich, and they have lost them all. Their last away point came in October in a 1-1 draw at Wycombe. 
    They probably won't be the walkover many might expect, but we should be too strong for them with our form and at PPS.

    DCFC under MM and the EFL. Two badly run organisations colliding; unfortunately one is beholden to the other. 
    We didn't need to be put into the position we were put in, regardless of how utterly incompetent and vindictive the EFL was during and after. It was a situation of our own making initially.
    For me, this starts and ends with Mel Morris. Without him, his attitude and the way he ran the club, we wouldn't have even crossed the EFL's path in the way we did.

    Hi lads, Spurs fan here!

    I watch quite a lot of our u21 games so hopefully I can give a fair assessment of where he's at and what he might bring you.
    He's a very versatile player, he mainly plays CM or DM but has filled in at LB (our u21s dont have a natural LB) a lot and played at LM. Conte even started him as a false 9 in place of Kane in our post-worldcup friendlies but before you get your hopes up he's not a natural striker! IMO like a lot of creative players his best role is possibly AM in a free role but he's not played there much recently because our u21 team has quite a lot of forwards to accommodate. He was loaned out to Pompey a couple of seasons ago and I believe the club have had loan offers for him pretty much every window since but they've been blocked by the club for various reason which has frustratingly stalled his development a bit. He's got great range of passing and not sure how many of them are on youtube but he's scored some unbelievable direct freekicks over the years in the youth teams. The youth coaches have said he's one of the smartest players they've coached and according to the Pompey manager when he was there he's very easy to coach, "You only have to tell him an instruction once. He's like a sponge and you'll tell him something once and then he'll be doing it. He's so easy to coach, a coach's dream."
     
    Hopefully it all goes ahead and he does well for you and maybe he can go on loan again with you next season in the championship ?

    Not much of a game last night, WH controlled it from start to finish very professionally and we weren't really able to lay a glove on them. Not that we played badly, we didn't, we did fine and that performance wins a league match most times. Bowen is such a class act, and their defence was rock solid.
    Criticism of Collins is unfair when judged against the WH back three, but not unfair judged against L1 defences, and it's the reason he's lost his place in the team. He's on a poor run of form, but let's hope he can recover it soon. 
    Cashin back is huge, losing Bird not so good.
