one or two centre mids, one or two wide players and poss a RB but Will is MoM every week plus Freeman so it has slipped in urgency.

Freeman evaporated a few months back.

Swap Nuttall for Ogle and Butterfield at Scunthorpe. Sorted

A turd! With the squad assembled? This squad, on paper, as the bookies confirmed, should be promotion candidates. Unsworth fucked it up, Thompson, as much as he has manged to get them initially playing better, is not a manager with a sense of identity. He is not the man to take charge, as much as I respect him, he just isn't up to it. We need someone with experience and a track record.

Let's face it, we ain't going anywhere this season, it's done, gone beyond us and a mid-table to maybe just missing the playoffs is on the cards.

 

Miracles do not happen.

It really isnt done. Top 3 needs to be the target and is very achievable.

Some big names have applied.

This is a repeat of wellens he had blistering start, then all went wrong

Because of Abdallah and Mo

Slightly positive take is that it wasn't a total disaster. We are one of only 2 teams to take anything off Chesterfield and picked up decent away points at Borehamwood and Gateshead. 

Badadalada Kabamba

Obviously healed his rift with big Joe then

We've made this mistake before with Wellens. New man please, but by all means keep Thompson on...

The argument's been done to death but the Lemmies had a lot to do with the tail off under Wellens

Unsworth brought a lot to the table...

Whoever comes in, I do hope Steve Thompson is kept on in some capacity. Purely because it’s evident he’s got a decent football brain and the players respect and like him.

Enjoyed his interviews last night, even though he said “bring something to the table” a lot.

Unsworth brought a lot to the table...

If we win tonight Thompson will come flying in to short odds as a few fivers will get placed on the off chance he gets given 10 games. 

Into 5s. My fiver on Pete Wild has cut him from 33s to 20s

Green started well but as usual fades off spectacularly 25 mins or so. Thought Sutton had possibly his best game at RB. Good win against a good York side but we still give the ball away to often. 

Think we need a more solid option than Green if we are sticking with 4-4-2. Sutton had a good game but think would be even better at CB if/when needed.

York were rubbish but that was so much better all over the pitch. 
 

We’re still short in midfield but have so much quality up front. Give them service and we should score a lot Think if we say of goals no matter who is playing. 

Thought York were decent. Had they been a bit more clinical first half we would have been in trouble. Weathered the storm though and dominated the second half. Nuttall looked transformed - also good shifts from Gardner, Sheron, Kitching. How on earth was Hobson left out earlier on?! Think if we stay 4-4-2 we need a more solid option on the right than Green.

4/5 with BetVC.  There are loads of managers who go odds on in these markets that don't get the job

Used to be great fun laying these markets on Betfair.

We have past league and promotion winners from this league and others, a league 1 striker and defender, the best defender in the national league last year, the best LB in the league and a wealth of strikers most in this league would have no problem putting in their team. I think they are underperforming massively!

Best LB in the league??

Keith Curle 20/1

Exactly.  Nobody is going to dislike the guy if he's good at his job.

This is the whole point. If Unsworth had been steamrollering sides, the fans would have been singing his name and then he would have come over and 'interacted'. He wasn't so we didn't so he didn't.

Anyone know whats going on with Freeman? Injured or out of favour with DU?

If it wasn’t for Hobson we’d have lost by a fair few more yesterday!!

He was excellent

Don't rule out Andy Woodman - as he left Frank last night he said (jokingly) he'd keep an eye out for houses in the Oldham area.

He’s gone
