    Anything clown related...?

    No season ticket for me after 25 years... Just had enough. Until the chairman goes i wont be heading back. He's buggered up a great opportunity in less than a month.

    I think anybody who can put together a solid squad of 18-20 players can comfortably be a success in this league. I think its an awful standard.... What we need is a hardworking unspectacular but consistent bunch who hit 7/10 week in week out. I watched Lincoln last night and nobody really stood out as being exceptional quality but they work hard as a bunch and know how they want to play then stick to it. I think a core 6 plus 10/12 additions, couple of loanees and any youth player with any quality should be enough if everyone is pulling in the right direction and the manager has a plan. Its a big clear out but let's face it, its required...

    Stott - It's harsh to judge him on his recent appearance so you may be right. Hunt for me is replaceable - Defensively average and poor going forward. He's been a huge disappointment since his permanent move as I thought he had huge potential. Dearnley - Doesn't stand out at this level like Surridge did and I think there will be better options Gardner - Not for me, don't think he brings much to the side. If we could get Lang / Iverson for next year that would be a great start but I suspect we'll end up building from a core of 6/7 players

    Simply cannot expect him to polish a turd....The squad is abysmal. Looking at last night you would keep: Iverson Edmundson Clarke Hamer Missilou Nepo Baxter Lang I would possibly keep mouche but for some reason he's spent more time falling over since Baxter took more of a hold of the ball. The rest of the squad can go for me... If you look at what he's been given, how anyone can criticize him is beyond me We've got 6 players in the entire squad at a push who belong to us who actually are half decent at this level.

    We've got a terrible squad.....Maybe 14/15 decent enough players at this level but that is about it. For me, we're starting to try and play football and if you look at Baxter in particular, he's got a new lease of life. Nepo pinged a crossfield ball on Saturday which I haven't seen the likes of from him since he arrived. It appears they've been given more of a licence to go play the game. We tire at the back end of games and because we have no quality on the bench it's a toss-up between pushing players and them tiring and switching them with poorer options. Better decision making by the players (It's not 100% players and the manager has allowed us to sit too deep at times) and we're probably 5 points better off than we are now and everybody is praising them all. We've played one game on a semi-decent pitch since he came in and that was against one of the most in-form teams in the country. If we were lumping it up to O'Grady on his own at home to the likes of Stevenage, i'd be concerned. As it stands, I'm happy to let Scholes try and develop a style and then build around that come the summer...

    To say his main contacts are solksjaer and butt is a bit off... Just thinking quickly he'll have worked with the following.... Mclaran - QPR Kidd - City Not sure his personal relationship with gerrard/lampard but certainly played many times alongside so that potentially brings in Derby / Rangers. His contacts will be much wider than those he played with for united.

    No official mention of it but i know a couple of journos and they (club) have definately circulated the fact there is one today
  9. Fruitygoo
    One would probably suffice on current form
  10. Fruitygoo
    Doesn't say what year....
  11. Fruitygoo
    Yep... Because hope is all we have left =D
  12. Fruitygoo
    Maybe that's the gamble on the 300k... Extra money on scholes but more options at utds youth on the cheap...
  13. Fruitygoo
    I think he's improved a little but i dont see us creating anything with a central paring of sylla and Missilou. A central 3 is the only way i see us playing both as it stands so then branger out... Lang out wide and just o grady up top
  14. Fruitygoo
    Im heading in that direction.... Nepo is a solid winger at league two level yet is stuck in an un-natural position. He's working had and actually improving as a full back but is he better than hunt / dummigan...not at thr moment. Branger shows flashes but needs to release the ball. His end product is average at best... Vera looks like he's way short of fitness and in ability although ive not seen enough to really judge. We're ridiculously light and not maximisng the few players we have at our disposal and this time next werk, a couple of defeats could all but see the season over. We needed an extra push in the last couple of weeks to continue the feeling after the Fulham game yet we've completely turned that good feeling around. Team for midweek Iverson Dummigan Hamer Edmundson Hunt Nepo Missilou Baxter Branger Lang O'grady About as good as we can get out of what we have at the moment.

    We delaying until after the transfer window closes? Scholes can't interfere with AL's signings if they're already in!
  16. Fruitygoo
    Who are these people who put moimbe in the 'decent' bracket when we start talking about imports..... Braininless and an average full back at best
  17. Fruitygoo
    I claimed ones where i was still sat on the bench.... Dont ask dont get
  18. Fruitygoo
    Thay was my understanding
  19. Fruitygoo
    Why?
  20. Fruitygoo
    Anyone know much about him? 3 in 25 at league one....
  21. Fruitygoo
    We may still get a few quid if from foreign TV
  22. Fruitygoo
    Most bookies class a caretaker as a 'next manager' if they manage 10 competitive games so even if Wild isn't getting the job full time, his odds won't drift too far.....
  23. Fruitygoo
    Not sure my mrs has ever heard half the ones i found to use.
  24. Fruitygoo
    We'll We'll take more than that....
  25. Fruitygoo
    He looked like a walking red card and nothing else in his first few games..... Whilst he still likes to walk a tightrope following any booking, he's come on leaps and bounds in the last 2-3 months and looks to be really enjoying his football. A great signing
