  1. Scored 7 goals for Telstar in 12 games. 

    2 goals for USA in 2 games. Was recalled from Telstar and we decided he wasn't good enough in a few weeks. Pity we interrupted his good run and then dumped him. Has a natural ability, needs the right club.

    It isn't hate spreading though- it's much more prosiac.

    If you're paying money for a football player you want them to be available. If a player isn't vaccinated then the chances of that player being available goes down, while also increasing the risk of other players also not being available. So it simply makes sense to think twice about signing a player who won't get vaccinated in the same way you would a player with a chequered injury history.

    That is understandable and, right or wrong, it could be the policy of any club. 

    However a public figure calling a group of people "a constant threat to all of us" is the worst form of hate mongering

    You have to respect other people's opinions and not label them because of your own fears. 


  3. He's a liability. Saw him the other week miss 2 excellent chances. One he backheeled off the line, the other he decided not to shoot because he thought it was a penalty

    Nearly messed up our promotion under Alex Neil by getting himself sent off in the run in  but  probably helped us in the end. Not to mention the walk out. 


  4. Very sad to see how some can use the good form of our youngsters as an opportunity to ridicule some of our older youth products. 

    Idah did well as a sub the other night. Out of the three in the U23's, I think Rowe has the best chance. 

    Although last season I thought the same about Martin and Omotoye.

    Watching the side report for duty before a game and you see one person with the Lamborghini, designer back pack , headphones and not signing for the little kids outside the South Stand reception . The other pro’s turn up , sign, decent cars but not massively over the top , club bags . 
     

     

    I thought the team usually all turn up together on the coach for home games. I know Todd is usually one of the first to connect with the fans and quite a few of the players have designer bags. 


  6. Sutton has the right, as anyone to analyse a player's performance, every player has off days, an expert might be able to suggest a reason for this. 

    What Sutton did was to critisize the way he left the pitch, the way he didn't high five Idah, this is not Sutton's job it is over dramatic has suggested a situation which probably doesn't exist

    Some people seem to delight in his poor performances, probably based on personal intolerances. My opinion is that he has lost his confidence due to poor treatment by the club, he might be physically fit but at the moment is not mentally fit for the big games. 

    I hope that the club can publicly support him and the supporters can get behind him, it is in our best interests.

  7. Couldn't have helped his confidence to be kept away from his team mates for so long. Putting such a high price on his head to stop him moving wasn't a good move either.He probably wouldn't have been considered ready tonight had it not been for the injuries.

    We know he can be a good player at this level. Smith has got to try and put things right, I hope he can,who knows, peoples' opinions might change as quickly as they have with Placheta. 

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     


  8. He came to the club before Skipp, he looked to be the natural successor to Tettey but plans were changed. Perhaps Farke thought he wasn't good enough at this level and would never usually even put him on the bench, while playing defenders that weren't fit. Most fans thought he was worth playing but he didn't get the chance. 

    His reading of the game and calmness under pressure stood out and, I think, would have bought us extra points at the start of the season when we couldn't defend. He is also useful at set pieces, Gilmour, Rashica and Placheta are all good at delivering and this is where we looked the most dangerous on Saturday. Sorensen's form was the best thing to come from the Man U game but it also showed why Kabak was good enough for Liverpool.

    Injured Hanley with a challenge that was never a genuine attempt at winning the ball. Aarons got halved. Twice they kicked ball away well after a foul had been given.

    Ref clearly had his instructions today and fulfilled them perfectly. Mission accomplished.

    Dimi got mugged. McTominay was the same two tears ago.

    Adam's a bit of an enigma: it's almost as if he's frightened of scoring, doesn't want the resultant attention & expectation? I don't know, but he seems to be nearly there so many times.

    I do think he played a pivotal part of the goal against Newcastle though, his positioning panicked their goalie into palming Gilmour's cross to Dimi. Getting himself into those sort of situations could be vital in creating chances.

    Also McLean's disallowed goal v Leicester. He caused Liverpool some problems in the league game. 

    I'm not sure of the squad rules but Idah is only 20 so he is extra to the squad of 25. In view of the impact he can have we would be better off to postpone any loans till next season. 

    I can understand Forest looking for a new striker, what a miss from Grabban at the weekend! 

    Hugill is a Grant Holt type player, they don't like him at WBA but he could do a job in this league. 

     


  11. Gilmour was better with Normann in the team, with Rupp playing Gilmour has to be more defensive. Newcastle's goal came from  Gilmour being in a place he shouldn't have been. 

    So Sorensen instead of Rupp and we are better defensively and going forward. I'd prefer Idah to Sargent because he gets into the box and creates chances.
