Re: MATCHWATCH : Arsenal U21s (h)

Really impressed with Craig tonight, and in previous cameos. He’s way ahead of Savage and needs to be in the team or bench at very least. Vickers is a little star.Did more useful and entertaining stuff in 80 mins thanAzeez has managed all season. I’d start him. Kelvin played well. My first look at ...

Re: Selles out

Was it Coppell who said he preferred to go with youth in attack and experience in defence? In theory we should have that mix. No time like the present to get these youngsters out on the pitch and playing proper football. Just need a quality mature captain to rally them when we inevitably stumble. Th...

Re: Eastleigh away - FA Cup round two

I have a gig on the day of this show. Our doors are 1.30pm (it's a matinee). Recon the band will mind me streaming it on the projector whilst they play? We could call it art of something. Make some sort of statement about the state of grass roots venues and how they should be supported like grass ro...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Shrewsbury Town (a)

We had plenty of experience today. The problem is the tactics and formation that Selles is setting the side up as and to be honest I'm not sure these players are good enough. Dean is finished as a professional footballer. Hutchinson isn't far behind. Bindon isn't great, but raw. Dorsett isn't a lef...

Re: BTFG Shrewsbury

Wow, this one hurts, i really don't know where to begin. After 15mins we were so superior and they were so poor i really couldn't see anything other than a 3-4 goal win!! then Azeez just needed to hit the ball first time and its game set and match....i mean, really, what was he thinking, so so poor...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Shrewsbury Town (a)

What happened?

Like... I don't understand. We had 3 minutes left to go.

We are the laughing stock of the entire football league.

WestYorksRoyal That was true for the last 2 league games he lost.

Don't think anyone expected a result against Pompey.

Probably, but any game should be competitive in this league. It's not like they're Man City. He used up his leeway against Fleetwood.


Agreed! Fleetwood was the last straw.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Portsmouth (h)

It begs the question, how do we get it so wrong? We have the players. The set up. Training facilities. Is it as simple as sh*t manager, terrible owner? Confidence rock bottom. Small things in games going against us (ie savages shot vs Fleetwood), losing mentality. Bad luck. I’ve not seen anything t...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Portsmouth (h)

All this talk about formations lately but it’ll be tactical suicide if he perseveres with the 4-2-2-2 (no it isn’t 4-4-2, no matter what people argue). The organisation and structure is so far away from being good enough and we look susceptible to conceding almost every time the opposition attack. ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Fleetwood Town (h)

I am literally in tears of laughter here.

I cannot believe it.

I still think we can win this, but f*cking hell, this is embarrassing.

Absolutely gutted. We have a team that should be doing so much better. At what point do they dig in???

Re: MATCHWATCH : Swindon Town (h)

Millsy I didn't catch the Swindon team news - are they playing their first team or kids?


Yes, playing kids rather than risk their thread bare first team.
