  1. Is this new role his best position? He's scored two recently. Today's is a class finish.
  2. Always makes me laugh when fans, (myself included) cling onto the hope that striker is suddenly gonna score a hatful for us- just because he scored 6 goals in a spell somewhere 3 seasons ago. He might score a few. . He probably won't.
  3. Where's Lee Sinnot- to calmingly tell us all there's no chance we'll go down? Seriously Lee, where are you? I'm starting to get twitchy.
  4. Who will come in for Gerrard? Back four? Hunt Clarke Wilson Reckord (Is Dunne fit yet?) Presuming front 6 won't change.
  5. Massive win. Fair play to Clarke, says a lot about his character.
  6. Fair do's. Agree about type of player/the game/first touch. However Is Baxter better than his similar type- shez, tricky, Henry, wellens. Not for me. Baxter stood out in league one. The above stood out in higher leagues.
  7. Really??? If he's THAT good. . Why has never touched the prem? Or even the championship. I'd take any number of our premiership midfielders over Baxter any day of the week. 5 a side or otherwise.
  8. Spot on. It's got nothing to do with the fans that went. You went because you care. Fair play, all of you. However, I'll ask again, why didn't Corney take NNN offer to rearrange the meeting, when he knew he was so busy? SC OFFERED to film it, then on the day, the video guy was busy. Why? Because it was match day- fair enough. But SC knew it was match day, and he'd be busy, So why didn't he re-arrange it????? My issue isn't what was said. It's what was not said or given chance to be said. SC has very clearly given info that a lot fans of a lot clubs would applaud- again fair enough. But where is the balance? The notes read as an overview of everything Corney wants to say, what about what the guys in there really want to ask him? It works both ways. To my mind, it was offered as a clear the air meeting, which was to be filmed for openness and transparency. A chance for us to all move forward. However, because of the lack of filming, and a lack of balance being afforded to people asking the questions, it feels like spin. You can't tell people only the truths you want them them to know, and not expect people to be cynical.
  9. thinking look at all good he does;but that has to balanced with his mistakes, before people can move forward.
  10. There in lies the problem. It's a very hard balancing act. How do you ask the difficult questions without alienating SC. However, through no fault of yours or the others it feels very diluted to what was originally offered/planned. Re- filming; I said before, why didn't he take your offer to rearrange When he was less busy? Maybe at a time when the window had closed, and he wasn't entertaining potential new investors. It just feels like it was a platform for SC to put out the information he wants- leaving people thinking l
  11. But rightly or wrongly there are reasons people have prejudged opinions. They gave been formed over a very long period of time. In hindsight, the meeting was never going to drastically shift those opinions. (Think I was a bit naive expecting it to.) IMO the meeting opened my eyes to one or two aspects- and I certainly appreciate everyone's time. However there is an awful lot I disagree with. Is me saying what I disagree with, going to change anything after all these years? Nope. Sorry to say, but in the end, it all feels a bit pointless.
  12. I've typed out 3 different lengthy replies to this, then deleted them all. What's the point? We are where we are. People will make their own minds up about the meeting/chairman/club. Those that still go, will carry on. Those that don't agree, won't.
  13. Fair comment. I just wish we could have a sustained period of positivity around the whole club.
  14. And. Yet again. Just when you think things might be looking up. . . The clubs ability to derail any slither of positivity is endless.
  15. Whilst it was still good of Corney to meet the fans, I can't help but feel he has wriggled out of the filming, or like others have said even an audio of the conversation. How long has this meeting been penciled, three/four weeks? Why not take one of NNN offers to rearrange if he's to busy. In the time it's taken to arrange it all, is putting a camera up to much to sort? Or at very least letting one of the fans record it on their phone?
  16. Not quite looping, but still a cracking header! Great to see Gary Kelly throwing himself about as well. Happy days.
  17. If I remember right, didn't Ormonroyd score a great looping header at Wolves? Think we won 1-0. It was near Christmas time I think.
  18. Any particular reason your being a nob? Did I directly quote you? Did I say Harry said a few? You and others jumping over all people as soon they offer a different view.
  19. You and Harry are both missing the point. How many times does the club offer something like this, things start to look up on and off the pitch, then they proceed to mess it up; sometimes within months. Someone comes back after posh, sees a few games, starts getting the buzz again, then the club don't show enough ambition or press self destruct after the initial rescue act- which they created - to KEEP them coming back. It's a great gesture by the club, no doubt. I hope it leads on to bigger and better things. But if you think a great gesture and a few goals/wins will be bring people back regularly (which is what we really want) then your either very naive or deluded.
