Thread | What we need is better players
at 13:59 10 Nov 2024
Marti cifuentes is a good manager.OK on this board there are always someone who will disagree like a petulant 15 year old, but we ,on balance know Martin and his team are of the required calibre.
The issue is the players, specifically the attack and lack of goals.
Defence is good, issue is injuries.
Midfield is ok
Attack is poor
The answer is new players.
It is very very hard for a team to go out week after week knowing goals are a problem.
I am sure Marti has told Nourry what the issues are .His job is to get the right loans in.
Calm down and do what fans do and support the team as we have been doing

Thread | Well that was an improvement
at 18:37 17 Aug 2024
Flying back from holiday checking phone on BBC Sport.Typical FFS at 20 minutes, but kept checking as I am some sort of addict.Saw that the stats suggested an even game then that beautiful boy Dunne scores.Real hope -after last season this lot know almost anything is possibleThank God this team has some spirit.Then its all us and they are wobbling.At Colback sending -off its FFS again.Check at 4.45-burst out loud laughing funny.Thank you Lyndon Dykes.
Well done Boys and management team -you have something going here.Alot of variation and alternatives and heart.
Well done the support behind the goal-that looked like fun |

Thread | Player of the season
at 09:00 21 Apr 2024
Football is a team game and some years I avoid it.I always have two or three in mind and think they should do a 1.2.3…. -lowest points total winds / number of nominations.
1.Cook
2.Chair
3.Field
Team game though and we all know player of the season is Marti Cifuentes
Goal of the season: Easy ….. Jimmy Dunne v Birmingham |

Thread | Marti Cifuentes
at 16:28 30 Mar 2024
Felt Rowatt out thought him yesterday .This team is tough and can cope with going one down BUT he expected Birmingham to go for a low block and hit us on the break.They didn’t. -so our high press/high line plus A medium paced forward line did not quite work.
Obvious for last 15 of first half and until Armstrong came on the second half.
Would like to know Marti’s thoughts
I wonder if we could afford Bacuna’s wages
Still still think he looks a good manager.
For me best since-middle 90’s,perhaps since Venables. |

Thread | Armstrong
at 15:11 30 Dec 2023
Picking Armstrong was ,in effect telling the club hierarchy that the club does not have any strikers capable of regular scoring at Championship level.I like Armstrong ,but technically he is barely League 1 or League 2 ,but needs games on loan eg Eze at Wycombe.
Dykes needs to score 10-15 a season to justify his place long term-whether he is picked for Scotland or not.It is about Goals.
Cifuentes is a good manager and needs loans/buys now.Marti needs backing what ever in my opinion
Cook needs to play every game -medical need to sort it.Best back four last night.Play that and we are difficult to beat.
Field and Dozzell were well coached yesterday and I hope they understand.Field has been at best mediocre this season,It is not effort it is brain issues for him.Dozzell plays because he is the only player who passes into areas to players that hurt the opposition.
However this is a very very inconsistent team.
I would work on starting well ,first fifteen minutes so so important |

Dear Osman-head up lad that was better.You are being targeted.Watch the tapes , listen to the coaches.Listen to the wise old defenders.80% of the time you were very good and are getting better with every game.I think you can do it.Paul Smyth needs to help you in limiting the space they can play in,but if you read these things the fans I know are willing you on.
Paul Smyth: I went with a Middlesbrough mate and they , like me , thought you were a class apart.I wonder what QPR were playing at.Suppose it takes Ga/Holloway link to get you back |

Thread | Huddersfield Goal offside
at 19:29 5 Feb 2023
Am I correct in thinking you cannot be offside if you pass backwards.
After Denny saves the free kick and their lad touches the ball I freeze framed it and Waghorn is clearly off-side

Thread | No new strikers
at 22:50 30 Jun 2022
Rest of the team is good and can only get better.So why no new wingers or a striker?
Its July tomorrow.
Is it all hush-hush last minute brinkmanship to avoid over-paying?
More likely no plans in place. |

Thread | Warburton took one for the lads today
at 13:38 27 Feb 2022
This team was always a 2-3 year project based on getting a team ready for the premiership.Manager ,Les and Hoos know that.Wiser fans know that .We have effectively had no forwards now and that is our weakness .Everyone knows this.Austin was a gamble worth taking - and I for one cannot criticise Charlie.No news on Dykes.Gray has been hit and miss.
We need to buy young with potential and that takes careful judgement and time.
Unfortunately it is wiser to have another two/three years in this division.
We need to keep this in mind when the knee-jerks keep posting.
Warburton and team can take criticism but it needs to be realistic [Post edited 27 Feb 2022 13:39]
