You have to question the manager's logic for leaving him on for the full 90 though... Had no back up and probably told to keep him on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But any manager who takes off his centre-forward for a non centre forward when losing is likely to get pelters. I think most would have understood given the circumstances, as he wasn’t fit, like you say. We are still a forward short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamoafc Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Some massive over reactions to him on here. What service did he get? Spent the 90 mins challenging to hopeless punts upfield. I don’t think Lang or branger put more than 1 decent ball in each all game. ‘Raffle winner’ and comments similar Unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is a joke from the chairman, miller left weeks ago, we need pace upfront which this new guy ain’t got, that number 8 from macc was head and shoulders against any of our players today!!

laticsmarra Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Didn't show me anything today that if he did get fit would be an asset.He has a very long way to get to the required standard of fitness and we need to win football matches in the meantime.Since when were we happy making signings that werent capable of improving us from day one.

Correct, he still should of been subbed at half time and Hunt brought on, Branger and Nepo out wide and Lang through the middle, Macc's defence was as shaky as ours when we had them on the back foot but playing and persevering with a front man so lacking made it so predictable and easy to play for Macc, we really do need some quality in, having lost Surridge, Miller and Lyden we really have replaced them with piss poor alternatives on what they've shown already and lost a chunk of desire as well.

longtimeblue Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 I missed the penalty... After that... Put himself about a bit, doesn't seem soft but seems slow and a bit cumbersome. Far too early to judge but Steve Whitehall was the link I made. Still think he'll end up being good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Managed to find another immobile paceless forward who needs three months to get fit, League 2 defences love these puddings we put up front and hate your Surridges and Langs of this world running at them but we continue to play with the immovable objects up front sometimes on their own, baffles me. Watch Mansfields highlights and look at the contribution Ajose made, can't be difficult to pick a player up like that surely? The quality of our forwards really will be the difference between finishing lower mid table and the playoffs and currently the options up front are laughable.

By your own definition, those fans you think accept mediocrity would merely accept their lot in the division below. *Same facile argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fleetwood Blue Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 He has played one game and was announced less than 24 hrs before that game and he is getting absolutely caned...Do people think we are going to attract an experienced 30 goal a season man when we have no money and we’re in league two..We either get lucky with a young lad who hits the ground running (surridge) or we will get a player whos now a carthorse winding down his career (O’Grady/Miller) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
