Play offs
at 12:40 15 Feb 2022

Don't wish to count any chickens just yet, but does anybody know when the play-off semi final games are scheduled for ? Looking to book a short break between the end of the season and the actual final on 29 May avoiding any conflicting match days.

Experience needed, but where ?
at 10:58 7 Aug 2018

Looking through the squad we do seem to lack experience in almost every department.

Without resorting to any accurate numbers i'd guess our players each have approximately the following number of career first team appearances

Ingram 50-70
Lumley 25

Kakay 5
Furlong 50
BFG 200
Lynch 100-150
Hall 100-125
Bidwell 200
Baps 300

Mass 200
Scowen 250
Manning 30-50
BOS 30-50
Wheeler 100
Goss 15
Pavel 200
Freeman 200
Cousins 200
Chair 5
Eze 40

Oteh 3
Wash 150
Smyth 15
Smith 200
Sylla 200

There's plenty of potential there but we are having to deal with the here and now, not the future. So where do we parachute in our 'experienced' recruits Steve is craving ?

Keepers are untouchable.
Find a centre half with a career as long as Matt Connolly's.
Midfield, that's very difficult to juggle around with. lots of bodies in there, who gets dropped, who's future gets put on hold for a new man ?

Up top I cannot see us getting anyone in. We all want a 15 goal a season man, well they go for up to 10 million these days, Waghorn and Bamford are prime examples. We should play to the strengths of Smith and Sylla, both capable of 15 per season although not as a pair. Look how well Murray did at Brighton last year playing alongside a couple of wide men. Send Oteh out on loan, believe he is a goal getter, just needs a bit more of that commodity we are short of, Experience.

Appreciate anyone with the 'answer' letting us all know, and don't forget to pass it onto Steve.
