Beardmm Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Anyone have any idea when he is back playing? Not sure if I’m right, but our downturn in form seems to have coincided with him not playing. I think we miss the control that him and Hourihane playing together gives us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammie1884 Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Warne said he may look to bring him on against Oxford. Sorely miss him and no accident results have dipped without him. CBRammette and SKRam 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPRamFan Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 We badly miss him. I remember the match after he was injured and we battered Morecambe 5-0. People were saying we didn't need him, just pure madness. Hopefully he's back fit for our last 10 games of the season, secure playoffs and give them a good go and it's imperative he's fit and in form. derbydaz22 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramit Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 When working with a small squad of players, a first team player getting injured means fewer rotations available, adding fatigue to the players filling in. i hope that Bird is back to fitness soon.

B4ev6is Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 I think he will be on the bench so if things are not going well bring him off the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing him from the start in a game we should be fully capable of winning without him only risks aggregating the injury in a game he doesn't need to be playing in.

Lets hope he comes off the bench in the 2nd half and gives the team the lift they need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith needs a rest too i thought the Sibley and Hourihane partnership in midfield on Saturday worked well , i would give it another go against Fleetwood , leaves one midfield spot up for grabs , Smith, Bird or Knight , good problems for the manager to have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcfcsr92 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Bird needs coaching better if hes playing that defensive mid role he needs to read the play better! Their first goal he stepped out chasing the ball rather then holding his position and pushing them away from goal cost us the first goal. Im not saying its his fault but the role hes playing left us exposed at the back jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not saying its his fault but the role hes playing left us exposed at the back I'll have to see it again but on the whole I think Bird reads the game very well indeed, and regularly steps in - I actually think it's one of his strengths. I didn't note his positioning/movement on the first goal today though so will be interested to look. [Edit: didn't realise the highlights would be up already! Yes, OK, he basically gets a triangle played around him as he pressures the furthest player and Hourihane is too far away to do anything about the runner. I'll agree he could have done better on that one, but ultimately we had enough behind him to stop the goal. Some credit for the scorer too for a good hit] Edited March 25, 2023 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happily, im not saying im pep or anything but if your making him play that kind of role he needs teaching it! Its not like hes bielik or thorne who naturally play that role. Also think putting Barkhuizen right back is f***ing stupid i feel that he should be given a chance upfront with mcgoldrick just behind as he played it for preston and its when he was scoring alot for them Rammy03 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
