Goes into the category of reasonable assumption until demonstrated otherwise. Likewise the conclusion that we've bought a bunch of crocks that nobody else wanted and they were so desperate for a contract that they accepted the meagre crumbs that we are able to offer.

Bob Jay worked on his own for donkeys years, as did Ian Liversidge, who also had time to run private clinics at B.P. both of whom had multiple players on the bench at the same time. Perhaps its the players who are big softies, two weeks out with a septic sock. According to Keegan’s book, Soss (IL) was assisted by Ronnie Evans, who had the basic skills required when needed - one of the reasons he was hired by Joe.

Played the full match v Sutton so nothing obvious there. Hasn’t been involved since. KC looked v frustrated when listing the ‘unavailable’ players and when asked specifically about Clarke, gave no further details. The next David Wheater?

Funes Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Why are we not kept informed about injured players, timescales for a return to fitness/action? This lack of fundamental communication has been an issue for years, but why should it be with so many media channels open to the club. The Chron would always give injury updates provided by the club.

100milesaway Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Whilst we have a team of crocks. How many matches has our beloved Peter Clarke missed through injury in the last 5 years ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 As we are short in numbers why hasn't Sutton been recalled from Witton And where is Jack Williams who was taken on as a full time professional? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Williams wasn’t taken on as a pro. He was given an extended third year scholarship. I assume to see if he can resume a chance at a career after so long out injured. I thought the consensus here on Sutton’s appearances was that he wasn’t yet up to scratch? If neither are ready then we’d just be throwing them to the wolves.

Crusoe Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 So because Vaughan is playing well at a young age, Sutton must be too? You know as well as anyone that not every young player is ready for a regular first team place. I used to really enjoy your posts, BP. Lots of insight into scouting. But lately you just seem to enjoy nitpicking and asking questions that anyone with your experience must already know the answer too. I believe it’s called sealioning.

oafc1955 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Ready or not, I would start with Vaughan, Luamba, Da Silva and Cueto instead of 4 of your choice from that recurring shambles of a team yesterday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said we are short of players so its logical to recall Sutton, of course Curle can keep blundering on with Clarke and Jamieson, but just maybe Sutton could do a better job in a flat back 4 alongside Piergianni?

the_mighty_bosh Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 The injured player named on the bench on Saturday must've been Whelan as it sounds as though Dearnley was unfit rather than injured. Aside from using youth players (which wouldn't be an awful option at all to be honest based on Vaughan and Luamba) Curle only 10 fit outfield players to pick from. He still could've set them up better defensively but his options are so limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaddyexile84 Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 Been at a conference today with work and one of the speakers was ex Leeds Rhinos coach Brian McDermott. He spoke of fighting relegation the season after winning a treble and how part of that was they had virtually no pre season after the training ground was flooded. He said only a few games in players were getting injured with muscle injuries which he said is down to either no or poor conditioning or “going to fast to hard” considering Curles “harder tougher pre season they’ve ever had” maybe that’s the cause especially as we signed players with history of being crocked or looking at the first bit our conditioning coach is a bit crap?
