  1. Walker was very, very weak defensively when he played RM/RW v. Dagenham, remniscent of Ben Tollitt. I thought he was lucky not to get pulled at HT. His defensive weakness will militate against him being considered for selection anywhere but the frontline. Even in a 433 I would imagine he would be expected to tuck into a 451 when out of possession. So unfortunately, despite his potential going forward it is very difficult to pick him in a league as competitive as ours.
  2. Close to number one, six players used at RB this season, years since we last had a competent player in the position.
  3. Good list. I'd add pace. When Green starts it stretches the opposition, creates space for team mates and put doubt into the minds of the opposition. Hammond is noticeably quicker than any of our other midfielders and it's really, really useful. And athletes, players that can get up and down, not enough runners in the current squad.
  4. Dallas did my nut in on Saturday with his sloppy passing as described above.
  5. He's got the potential to play at least L1, that's a higher ceiling than many of our players.
  6. That was my main reflection on Saturday's performance, we create so few chances so Norwood's almost our main creative talent in addition to our main goal scoring threat. We really miss Green within this particular group. I'm still hopeful that Conlon will improve with games under the belt, but that might be for next season. Saturday was a hard watch.
  7. That's blown my mind, I didn't even notice (nb I wasn't there, just following online). Must do less work, concentrate more on the promotion push!
  8. I'm just excited about going to watch us in a game that has something on it in terms of promotion. Would love to see us win five out of the remaining seven and stroll into the play offs, starting with this one. Hobson v. Effiong is an individual battle to relish.
  9. I've seen the pitch on twitter, doesn't look fit for professional football (cue gagsmiths).
  10. Yep, Fylde for me too. Like they had a collective hangover after the Rochdale win, never in the game.
  11. It's just going to lead to more Chesterfield fans in the home stands, I imagine that's why the police supported more tickets for CFC. Feels like trouble.
  12. We most definitely did need Garner when Norwood was injured, still need him now, need 4 strikers to pick from.
  13. Ah, you're not counting cup comps. In which case, you are correct.
  14. I am hoping they will underestimate us after absolutely bossing us at there place. Equally hoping that Micky Mellon's Oldham will be so much more competitive than we were in Unsworth's last game in charge. Feel like we owe them, they took the p1ss at their place.
  15. I'm not saying lump it up top to Big Mike, I am saying we need his physicality so the well directed long ball remains an option, and also to just put some wear and tear on their defenders before Nors is introduced to finish the job. I suspect Norwood isn't ready for 90 minutes yet so probably a largely academic discussion.
  16. Mellon reported Dallas as being clogged when through on goal in that practice game we played against Man Utd U21 a few weeks back when we went 10-14 days without a game.
  17. Another great listen, another good fan guest, just goes to show you don't have to have played professionally to talk knowledgably about the game. Always good to have that third voice to complement Matt and Andy, also good to hear efforts are being made to get some female voices on the pod.
  18. They are a big strong team but it would be a mistake to think they're devoid of skill. Although I don't want to see hoof ball I think Fondop has to start to at least allow for targeted long balls into the front two and his arial presence will be useful in our own box too. If we don't play Mike then anything pumped long will just come straight back at us, Webster et al are monsters in the air. Aim has to be play through the lines but Fondop can do that too, unleash Norwood in the second half.
  19. They could do it the previous game, depends on their results and those of Bromley and Barnet. It's still possible.
  20. Well, he's on loan at Hartlepools, potentially there might be a recall clause.
  21. With Dickenson, either his legs have gone or he just isn't fit enough. Either way there's no chance he could play wing back.
  22. I think they announced it on the stream commentary, 2000+, obviously not authoritative enough for the stats! Thanks for the clarification.
