Dean Coneys boots 1,400 Posted April 2, 2022 I honestly believe signing Gilmour is what relegated us- offers nothing in a crucial area of the pitch and we seem to be contractually obliged to play him. 4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corbs 147 Posted April 2, 2022 Wonder if there are any other all “white” line ups in the division. Admittedly probably my problem picking up on this but fans of my generation do feel uncomfortable when or if this becomes the norm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,234 Posted April 2, 2022 Bare bones stuff. No width on the right. Not sure why Rowe isn't starting to give us a bit better balance tbh. Distinct lack of creativity in that line up. Could get hoofball very quickly. Luckily I've better things to do most of the afternoon so I have a spare stream going if anyone wants it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,821 Posted April 2, 2022 Would rather have seen Dowell at ten if we're playing a diamond, with McLean on the left and Lees-Melou on the right. Or failing that, Rowe or Tzolis on the right and a 4-3-3. Not really sure why we have three young wingers on the bench; maybe we could've found a full back from somewhere.

TheGunnShow 5,940 Posted April 2, 2022 Meanwhile, I've got some financial statements to translate and the TM (translation memory) is more fecked than Lukas Rupp's hamstrings. A mate of mine's not come up to pick gels up for his marathon relay tomorrow, we look like we've got most of a team missing, might not get a lift to footy tomorrow and it's borderline I can get my marathon training in tonight. Had better days, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, but didn't the Athletic report that we are contractually incentivised to play him; the more he plays, the cheaper the loan fee. Either way, an absolute turd of a signing for us.

Either way, an absolute turd of a signing for us. Probably. However, we are financially incentivised to stay in this league. Playing Gilmour reduces the chances of that, so unless we have accepted our fate, he should be nowhere near our team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
