Dave_Og Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 It's taken over 40 years but Graeme Sharp's penalty against Leeds (?) is no longer the worst effort from the spot that I've ever seen. Thank you Bernardo Silva for erasing that from the record book. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was "Only" 30 years ago - you're ageing us all, Dave! Edited April 18 by JoeP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradKnowles1 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Few rumours of David worrall coming back. His lad goes swimming with my lad. Was speaking to him a few weeks back said we tried signing in December. Wild blocked it. He knows Brabin and good mates with Conlon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemel latic Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 He's had a good career but we have got to stop bringing in players in their late 20s/early 30s. We are crying out for young, hungry and talented with something to prove. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammond's got the best engine in that whole team, decent pace too, he's got heart, he doesn't go missing. He'd be one of the first names on the team sheet for me next season. In addition to the other qualities I listed you can add bottle. But seriously, we definitely need to address the age and experience profile of our team. We need some athleticism, we need some pace. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point maybe people will work out we're in the fifth tier and pretty much anyone who plays for us will have rough edges, some reason they're not playing at a higher tier. There's plenty of evidence that the current squad doesn't run enough, doesn't compete hard enough. Younger, fitter players with drive and desire should at least help solve that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When MM signed 3 like that he still reverted to his old favourite failures, so it's not a good sign for the future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot believe he is only 34, he’s been around for what seems like at least 20 years. I remember that he wasn’t a fan favourite here, but he had a long spell at Port Vale (probably where the Conlon connection comes from) and Southend and has had a decent League 1/2 career. Tend to agree that i’d like to see us reduce the age of the squad somewhat though, but it does seem like MM prefers experienced players with pedigree of playing higher.

Wiki is wrong by stating 7 appearances. He made over 30 appearances for Barrow this season - but with a lot of them as a sub in the last 20 mins of games.

And in return we get a League One striker in on loan (Dallas) and he does the square root of fuck all - in a league that he bagged for fun last season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A reflection of how little we create from midfield, the way I see it. Apparently Nuttall has been shit for the other 10-12 games he's played, by all accounts. One swallow etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
