Cool. Bet you have the lube out praying for another Mellon loss today don’t you.

Well yes, I think individually the players are good enough, with some exceptions. But like I said in my post, we have suffered from a poor recruitment strategy and lack of any plan. Is that okay mush ? Can you get your little head around that concept ?

We have some serious deficiencies, but we arnt a million miles away.

People are reading way too much into this MM interview. The recruitment has been absolutely shite, majority of which was before he came in. He tried to make signings but it’s clear with the 30+ players we have he has limited resources to change things. He’s signed some absolute dross, or players not fit, due to the budget constraints which isn’t his issue. The squad is so unbalanced and we can’t play a system which doesn’t result in 3/4 players either being out of position, or simply not good enough. We are going to have a core of about 15/17 players going into next season. We will have the ability and resources to sign 5/6 quality players. The majority of these players are good enough, we just need some pace, creativity and a clear system. The players we have has let him down, along with the board and recruitment strategy, he probably is pissed off.

Considering he’s scores about 30% of our total goals, we would be fucked without him.

Considering he’s a wing back, he takes no players on

Thought Mellons interview is fair and not surprised he’s fed up. He really can’t be judged until we have a right back, wide players and a creative midfield player. We must be one of the most predictable teams in the league in terms of how we play.

Hopefully his mum and dad have picked him up and taken him back to Vale. Or to L’Oréal studios.

we had zero control of games under Unsy, even when we was winning. Let’s not praise this fraud.

One manager likes a player, the next doesn’t. It’s a game of opinions, it’s not fact because some manager has said they would rather not want him.

Why would you shove Norwood out wide. Drop Fondop and play a winger. Hopwood, hope he can pass.

He’s our best midfield player by a mile, always said he has been, but it’s time for him to go.

See my post above

I’m sorry but signing a player who hardly played for two years on a short term deal, and a young right back who had never played a professional game, is not them trying to solve the problem, they panicked. Our right back situation is incompetent, at best. It’s bloody criminal and pathetic.

I think not signing a right back for the last 2 years to 18 months is just as bad as the Menig situation. It’s beyond incompetent at this point.

It’s a shambles really, it’s beyond poor. If DR is involved, let him focus on the operations side of the club, get someone in to do the recruitment. Didn’t DU want praise for putting in a proper recruitment team, appears they are shite.

Whatever we have been doing for recruitment for the last 18 months, we need to be doing the complete opposite. If that means DR or whoever has to step away from recruitment, then do exactly that. Mellon should create the plan of how he wants his team to look and we should recruit to that. Just work to a pissing plan. Oh and buy a right back.

We have two proven strikers who are struggling to score goals and some fans will still claim it’s the strikers fault. We have fuck all service. I’ve resigned to the fact we are shit. Unsworth didn’t like creative players and it’s absolutely fucked us.

Rightly or wrongly, the Reid situation has impacted him, I have no doubt. If my close mate was axed and left out the squad, I’d be pretty disappointed and annoyed with the manager. Regardless if it was for the correct reasons. They travelled together and spent / spend a lot of time together, it defo has impacted Kitch. Considering he was the only one able to create chances for us for the first 6 months, it’s no surprise we are shite now.

I like Mellon, but I am absolutely puzzled with the bench yesterday. We played a wide 2, but our bench consisted of Sheron, Lundy and Ward. Yet we kept Walker out the squad ? We also kept Hammond out the squad who could do a better job than the other 3 out wide. Very very strange decisions. Killed us from making and impact subs. Give the armband to Raglan and play Hobson over Hogan, he’s dump. Sign a pissing right back.

I suppose, but when I look at young midfield players I look at the technical ability. He’s not great on the ball and doesn’t look comfortable running with the ball at all. - I’d much prefer a Harry Vaughan type. He brings much needed energy to this team, but that’s about it. I don’t think he’s good enough.

Id be very worried if Hammond is in the starting 3 midfielders next season. Take your other points though.

Conlon is an absolute basket case in my view. He does seem to clap sarcastically at the end of the game. He’s so one footed it’s untrue, thinks he’s the bollocks but he gets the run around from national league players and as a dead ball specialist, he’s been hooked off corners and free kicks within about 10 games. Should be a hair model or something.

Beyond shit today. Can’t play in a two. Fraud

Had a go at you earlier in the season. I’m bored of this shit as much as you at this point, crap. The fact I continue to watch Sutton marching down that right wing, McGahey trying to play centre mid. Fucking mind boggling.
