Assume this doesn't count to the season? Didn't see it myself because I was watching the quick free kick but the guy next to me and the Southport Twitter account both said he slapped the Southport player Not sure if it counts, I seem to remember Hogan got sent off in one last season but still played, but I could be misremembering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately his replacement will not have to start from scratch. Assuming Frank knows when to get rid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, comfortable on the ball but needs to be played centrally, unfair on the lad playing him at rightback as it is with Sutton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Thought Hope looked sharp when he came on, may be an option wide left. Where does Sutton fit in now?, is he the latest youngster to be worked out of the team and likely moved on?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GKing521 Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 I was worried about being pipped to the title. With this manager it’s clear we may not even make the play offs. If we sack him very early doors we may still be able to salvage the season. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was expecting you to say we are relegation fodder. After all, it’s already mid-July and we have two meaningless pre-season friendlies under our belt. How much more evidence do we need, for God’s sake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Another goal and a nice finish from Green. He might not be the type of winger who will deliver a dozen pin point crosses a game but he knows where the back of the net is He could easily bag 10-15 goals next season. Which will be important because you will need goals from right across the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same will also apply to Fondop and Reid, I presume Willoughby would also get there, but not having seen him play I am not as certain.

Yep his Goals and Assists will be what you'd expect from a winger in a playoff team, but he'll have more goals than would be expected.

After all, it’s already mid-July and we have two meaningless pre-season friendlies under our belt. How much more evidence do we need, for God’s sake? it’s pre season. It’s about getting the players sharp for the season ahead. We can only comment on what we see though. My view having seen both games is that we look solid, organised at the back, the Altrincham lad looks decent in the middle, but we look lightweight upfront. Despite plenty on here pulling their pipe over Nuttall I’ve still yet to see it, but I’m not writing him off yet. in short, nothing to get either exited or worried about, which is what I expected really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
League one forever Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 I get the feeling some are hoping to see us evolve with all these better players. It won’t happen. It will be Rhinoball with better players. He won’t change, and why should he- as long he gets results. . . . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should easily make double figures if he remains first choice if not then we have 2 players in Reid and Fondop who will happily take his place who will bag double figures. Both our main strikers this season will bag double figures in fact we may even end up with 2 bagging over 20.

You'd usually expect a winger to be bagging 20 assists and maybe 5-10 goals with Green you might only get 10 assists but he may well bag 15. Maybe this is where football has changed in the last 10-15 years wingers are more goal scorers than providers these days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with Unsy, it’s pragmatism of the result at the cost of enjoyment. And given the choice - that’s better than entertaining losing football.

The Gaffer has already said he is pushing them really hard so that they will purposely be leggy so that they can build resiliance. some have chosen to ignore this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, that’s a good point. To play his style you have to work your bollocks off, I suppose it’s how and when you work that people will argue with. But if we start well, most won’t care either way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
