  1. Nah, I don't like this. There seems to be an actual plan, a strategy even, to the clubs transfer dealings and it's making me deeply unsettled. Right back and a couple of wingers next please
  2. It's a transfer strategy I can get on board with There actually being a transfer strategy at all is a novelty
  3. They're in the unusual position of actually having a spine/core group of players already at the club, so there's no scrambling around trying to buy an entire squad like most seasons. Hopefully this means they have more time to find quality over quantity...
  4. Apparently he's great at running in behind, and can also play in the hole.
  5. Norman Yarney Hogan Kitching Sheron Rooney Reid Nuttall All good enough for a promotion chasing team I reckon. A quality ball playing midfielder, a right back, a couple of wingers and probably another striker should be the priority to bring in. Could be an interesting summer
  6. Whatever happened with the assault? All seemed to go quiet
  7. I get that he's just here to be a contrarian, but christ it gets dull doesn't it
  8. Anyone who thinks losing a 2 goal lead at home with 10 minutes left to a side with 10 men isn't unacceptable has basically given up completely, haven't they? Plus, it's a fans forum. If you want balanced reporting watch Soccer Saturday ffs
  9. Can you expand on this for once? How is a fanbase that has seen their club finish in the top 6 twice in almost 35 years, and not finish top half in 15 years, "entitled"? Are they entitled for wanting better than the absolute bare minimum that they've seen for 3 decades? It's not an unpopular opinion, it's just utter bollocks
  10. I don't think any goal should be discounted. They all count. We've struggled down the years for people who could take penalties or score tap ins
  11. Yeah he's been a disappointment, don't really see what he brings to the side at all. Like Lee says above, might be a better shout a right back, but I certainly haven't seen anything to justify the hype from Hartlepool fans
  12. That's fair, and I'd agree with that. I do think he suffers from not having a consistent striking partner though, if we could get him and Reid playing together consistently i think we'd start to see the benefit of having him in the side more. But i do agree he needs to improve
  13. I think this is the key point, really. On Saturday I thought he played reasonably well, occupied their centre halves and played some nice lay offs but unfortunately he doesn't have players good enough around him to take advantage of the space he creates. Was quite surprised to see the stick he was getting on here after the game Not every player has to put a Paul Warne-esq shift in.
  14. I think he's referring to the 4 currently available tbf I agree Nuttall hasn't been great but I think there's a player there if we can get him and Reid playing together consistently. Unfortunately I think a lot of fans have already made their minds up about him. Someone on here called him our worst ever player at weekend which is mind boggling
  15. Nuttall has been really good tonight. Hope he can build on this
  16. I like him, he'll be frustrating at times but he's very direct and always tries to beat the full back. Just needs to work on his crossing
  17. Enjoyed their commentary, they genuinely seem excited to be playing Oldham Tidy finish by Nuttall
  18. With Reid out personally I'd be bringing in Rooney as a number 10, they look so much better when he's able to come infield and make things happen
  19. No promotion in 30 years. No top half finish in 15 years. Currently at our lowest point in history. God forbid fans get a bit impatient for a bit of success eh?
