Is this the ‘Signing and Player Rumours’ thread?? Just asking.

Could be just the type of midfielder that we need.

Spot on!

Totally embarrassing

Whelan was good against Bristol, but for him that was an exceptional performance. You can count on the fingers of one hand the number of games where he has imposed himself. He’s very very weak in the tackle.

I do understand what you mean, his height is definitely against him, but neither Whelan or Hunt have any sort of physical presence either. Vaughan has the talent and vision though to be much more creative than either of them. I just thought that Shez should have changed things once we went behind. We weren’t creating anything from midfield.

How tall do you have to be to not get bullied off the ball? Whelan and Hunt (and Bowden before him) aren’t exactly Roy Keane or Vinnie Jones and they are quite a bit taller than Vaughan. The midfield as a whole is very weak, Missilou apart. Yesterday though, in the second half, we were sleepwalking to another defeat, no creativity whatsoever, so why not bring Vaughan or Bahamboula on? We were losing anyway! Poor yesterday from the manager IMO. Bringing Stobbs on for Hope with only injury time left was pointless and way way too late for any player to be expected to make an impact.

He was too old when he was 37 according to our (not so) great leader!

6-4-2 would suit us!

Is Grant injured at the moment? Or just not being picked?

To be honest I think there is a section of the supporters who are toxic, and it suits them that the team is struggling at the moment.

That’s not the point though!

We have to hope that Wheater will bring some organisation and know-how to the defence and get them working as a unit because at the moment they seem to be playing like individuals. We are also desperate for an aggressive ball winning midfielder. Someone who can lead by example. We are a soft touch at the moment. Bradford bullied us and out-muscled us much too easily in the second half.

“Should have been hammered for 6” ..... are you for real? Did you go to the game? Or would you just like them to be hammered for 6? Pathetic post.

Bollocks!!
