It’s not just those body parts in….. he comes out with the ball a lot of the time and in space and is composed enough to pick a pass.
As stated above, he’ll have mad moments, but he will get better and better.
Filled a big space today as for some reason Morgan seemed to play more inside right (and wider) than his usual position

Surely that HAS to be it for Ashby at our club?
He started the move that gave Dull City a route back into the game; but doesn’t he always.
There must be some way we can cancel this loan this month?
I’m amazed anyone can see anything positive about this fella, he’s up there with the worst defenders I’ve ever seen play for us (and he’s in good company there)
Let’s have it right; we all know Sir James of the Dunne clan has now 1,000% reinvented himself as our marauding right back; so anyone else is cover. I’d take Santos as that man if only because we own him and, as bad as some things are he’s done, he’s done okay in patches.
Two brilliant subs followed up by two woeful ones last 15 mins.
I hope Marti did hook Ashby but if he did then I’m more mystified why he didn’t at HT v Leicester in the cup?????
If Ashby has an Agent looking after him then I hope he’s been advising him to invest in property these last couple of years since he stole that Geordie contract |

Right
That’s it
I’m sold
This fella is class and was MoM over the 90 mins for me yet again tonight.
Getting better and better and better and I can see him being yet another double digit millions player for us in a year or so.
He’s now moving around the pitch with grace and poise and breaks play up and starts forward moves in one action.
Edging himself into POTY territory at the moment |

There is no such thing as a long trip home after 3 points on the road - longer the better is my recollection from my travelling days
On which…. Surely it cannot be 22 years since Ooooh Richard Paquetre in the back of the net….Yeah!
I remember that day and the trip there like it was yesterday
Was interested to see who you made MoM and I thoroughly agree in the choice of Smudge.
So pleased for the wee man.
A very close second has to be Samuel Field….. if the net had rippled he would have bagged it but that really was his only blemish and he played a true Captain role for the whole game.

I saw at the end (on my footage) it appeared Marti went straight to him and had words that seemed to make Rayan’s face drop.
I wondered if Marti was being quick to point out an incident just before FT where Rayan sloppily gave the ball away in our right channel.
If so that is great coaching
Noticed Marti also said post match about keeping him humble alongside being very pleased with him.
Mark my words; in this kid and Morgan we have twenty to thirty million of future value on our hands IF they develop right. |

Can we afford him?
If I’m any other club at this level I’m looking at his stats and thinking “could do a job”
Christ I hope he signs a deal |

The first glimpses we had of him I wasn’t impressed
Today he blew that out of the water.
Looked really really assured, calm and composed.
Think I saw he was £3mill? Way beyond us which is a shame as he does look like might have a bit about him and will get better as he matures
As noted - absolute props to the club for getting him in early. |

Brilliant news on Kolli
A player I’ve been championing for a long time and I really think we’ve got a player on our hands here.
I really think he will score some special goals for us and lots don’t realise just what skillsets this lad has in his box. He’s also not shy in putting in a shift and sticking his head in where it hurts. He’s also got a bit of pace.
Basically he’s second choice behind Frey already for me and Celar fourth choice even if fit |

48 plus would probably be the line
50 more certain
52 an accepted safety total so 53 is always my target
My use of wins just to illustrate the point…. Would I take 5 wins and six draws? Of course!!
We are still a long way from being home n hosed and I’d like to see points racked up as quickly as possible while confidence is high. That starts with a win on Saturday at Plymuff please |

I’m with you.
That’s why my median safety buffer is 12 points from the drop line.
It’s so easy to lose 3 games in a week at this level and lurch from safe to looking over your shoulder. Cuts both ways at bottom and top.
Fact is though that we need 7 more wins and it is yet another Marti miracle that we are saying that now compared to 8 weeks ago |

Steak and Guinness diet
Few games between now and May where he runs tings
A couple of goals and assists
He’ll be a stick all day long
Without the above I’d say no but I think there’s a deal in principle with him in place anyway |

Some of my earliest and fondest memories would be the times in the LT District Club in Acton with my Dad and his motley crew
“Safest place in London to get a drink through on a Sunday” was their strap line….. you’ve still gotta stop and remember pubs shut at 3pm and re-opened at 6pm back then!!!!!
It really was separatist in terms of the sexes an all.
Women on the tables; men at the bar with the occasional drift to the fruit machine and us kids in a corner on Pac-Man or outside if the meteorological conditions allowed (ie anything apart from rain - which it did although the summers felt longer).
Every club had their own bag man knocking out hooky gear, snide Gallini or a book of fake LV’s
The place would be run with an iron fist by the Steward of the day, until he came up with three bars on the one arm bandit and the jackpot meant additional consumption of Courage Best with a snowball with Tia Maria for any lucky lady in the vicinity
Sadly these places are the most dying of breeds and if you’ve found one to join then fair play.
The last one I was a member of was run into the ground by a crooked Treasurer who sent us bust and the bitch didn’t do a minutes time, got a payback fine of a grand all despite coughing guilty to serious fraud charges.
Place was sold with proceeds divided by members
The one nearest me now was knocked down for flats with the proviso a new bar was built as the ground floor. They did that but never actually fitted a bar and the doors have never opened three years since finishing.
The only community clubs I see thriving now are the Somalians |

Firstly I think MOTD has been crap for years and I rarely watch it these days - probably would if we were on it (Ha! Ha!)
Lineker has slowly turned into a caricature of himself. Dick.
Chapman I'm ambivalent on.
Now giving you what you want.... I find this insistence on women absolutely having to be included in aspects of the men's game an absolute farce.

Great news, well deserved and pleased for him until that £10 mill bid comes in within 18 months |
