  1. It will be an entirely different squad next season I would think. Can't see too many still being here.

    Same as it ever was. Think a "name" manager like Dowie would help persuade some players to stay but the turn over is usually high and we start from scratch again. Roll on a decent run until Christmas, the useful loan players we have in return to their clubs and we slide into mediocrity yet again. Groundhog Day has nothing on OAFC. But there is always, always what if.....

  2. Self motivated my arse. Players body language is shocking. Clueless. No cohesion. Nothing. No direction from a manager who looks lost already. Might as well have a monkey is charge. A promising season heading for ignominy. I feel bereft. Gutted. We are so bad that MK Dons didn't really celebrate their second goal. It was like a training ground goal. Our players just stood looking at space, the ground, anywhere but at each other. No one giving encouragement. I feel like going home.

  3. Trying to work out best way from station to ground as got my foot in a surgical boot and on crutches - well, one will do for today. Ruptured achilles 3 months ago and fed up of missing games. Just suddenly thought I should go (live in Leeds) and guess a taxi would be best if expensive. Is there a bus or would I have to shuffle into town?Though might not be easy getting a taxi back after. Any help greatly appreciated.

  4. Now just this chaps hypothesis and stretching to make links to Pozzo's ownership of Udinese, Watford and Granada (so yeah Udinese play in black & white stripes - blimey, must be true), yet the Ashley investment in multiple clubs might be worth keeping an eye on. Though I assume he can't take too large an interest in us through buying shares given his Newcastle ownership. Still, by other means he could and the "sharing" of players between Pozzo's clubs is destabilising, especially for the smaller clubs. As I say, it is massive speculation but an interesting read and theory all the same.

  5. I think the style is more or less spot on for away games, but I'd like to think we could be a tad more adventurous at home. My only observation is that there doesn't appear to be a 'plan b' should we need it. Perhaps LJ wIll develop his tactical awareness and in-game management this season. If he can make a tweak to change games or try to, then we won't be far short of a pretty decent team capable of a top ten finish.

  6. Heading over from Leeds via bus and train to get the coach (as car unexpectedly in garage) but means I can have a couple of scoops. Self birthday treat!

     

    Looking at one of their forums it seems they aren't expecting a large home turn out. Odd given how important the game is. Ah well. I know us Tics will be in good voice...........
