I am half a mind to sign up to Twitter so I can tell him anonymously what I really think of him, but I would surely find the 280 character limit somewhat restricting. Is there some kind of etiquette I am not following? Did I need to do a masonic handshake prior? Apologies if I've rustled any feathers.

In truth David should have stayed on as we didn’t lose on Saturday, but I understand he is struggling at the moment from inhaling too much tippex fumes. cosmic, jono, EnigmaRam and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellafella Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 We need a cup run. We need to develop a winning habit. WR knows this and is adopting that approach. Salford will fancy this. They beat us pre-season and there’s the Gary Bowyer factor. Pre-season they watched us dance with the ball for as long as we liked then scored with direct and simple play. Have we learned from that? Will Morrison be able to unpick them with his incisive balls (Ma-tron!). Jack Stretton’s chance to shine. Im a tad concern about our CB’s. Need to rest CD so maybe Fossy as CB with Stearman and Ebosole at left-back? Cashin not in the squad so expect some square pegs in round holes.

Apologies I didn't realise that was the rule, I once had a friend called David if that counts? I don't mind being tarred, feathered and paraded round Derby on a lead by Ewie should we lose.

I think it’s wise to rest where we can given our lack of a squad. Would like to keep Jozwiak in to build up confidence with hopefully a good performance against easier competition, but I think Wayne will go with Lawrence. Horrible to say but going out of the cups early this season wouldn’t be the worst thing, although I’m a strong believer in the momentum that wins can bring. Stay in the cup this time and give more practice to young players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you'll be looking at the U18s to fill the bench as they won't count towards the professional standing quota. I imagine Ryan (CB) and Ibrahim (CM/AM) would be the likely contenders edit: Or JBrown, as he's already played for the first team Edited August 9, 2021 by Ghost of Clough Carl Sagan and RoyMac5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Ram Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I thought the matchday thread only got a new starter when we lost. ie win and a draw stays on but I get quite a lot of stuff wrong. ?♂️ RoyMac5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
