Sutekh Think the issue with the squad is simply a lack of match fitness, too many players coming in late plus inexperienced loans and players arriving who’d not played many minutes.

Think we’ll drift off to mid table obscurity but be back stronger and better next season.

That's certainly my hope too.

Extended-Phenotype With Leam’s Q&A words in mind, it’s definitely a lack of pace that is causing us to be so toothless. Because whenever we get the ball to a rare pacey player like R.Williams, we look really dangerous.

When are Danny K and Roberts back?


Roberts is about another 4 weeks away.

Kyerewaa is due to see a specialist next week.

I think we'll continue pretty much as we have been. Lose relatively few games, but just a few too many draws to get anywhere.

although I’d say we as as much lacking in strength as we are pace.

None of our players can stay on their feet and fend off even the slightest physicality. Absolute pushovers.

We`re in a transition period, need to shift the dead wood and go again next season.

Definitely frustrating because it felt like we should have already had a transition period by now but I do agree.

That's pretty much the entire squad. I don't think I can stand another season of watching Paddy Lane run around like a headless chicken.

We're 9th as it stands. Feels about right. Get the summer right and go for top 2 next season.

I could see potential in a back five of Abrefa, O'Connor, Ward, Williams, Roberts giving some good width.. Maybe a 343 like...

....................Periera
.......Ward, O'Connor, Williams
Abrefa, Wing, Savage, Roberts
.....Kyerewaa............Williams
..................Marriott

Dead wood?

Who would that be: Yiadom, Stickland, Rushesha, Ritchie, Camara, Elliott ?

Sackey must be running out of time too. Suspect Abrefa isn't high in plans either. I see O'Connor finding himself behind Williams and Ward next season.

Dorsett is perhaps the only one who looks strong enough to me

I'm sick of Dorsett switching off two or three times a game.

I don't know how he does it but Leam just seems to get results doesn't he?

Millsy 1-0 up so yep, true to form, we forget how to play footy and it's going to Luton all the way until they inevitably score.

I hope this ages badly with Wifi getting another 2.


Only a narcissistic twat quotes himself. Well I am one. Could both things be true?
