Re: BFTG Swansea Away

Boye has ability, but will need to be more disciplined, be a team player, play under control. (Beat 2 men, at most, but then get his head up and pass/create, etc.). Has some defensive traits too. Hope he evolves, and should maybe be an impact sub til then. At 23 he's still a young player, adjusting ...

Re: Puscas speculation.

We don't exactly try to play to his strengths, or give him a decent partner to work with. Or feed him much but scraps. Don't think his miss against Swansea was inexcusable either. Bit of a loose ball on the up he had to snatch at, possibly a bit behind him. Obviously you want it to go in and I expe...

Re: The Non - League thread

Interesting interview with Terry Brown, Basingstoke chairman on the Non League podcast regarding their pretty dire situation. They have a 30 year covenant to play at the Camrose ground. The current owner cannot obtain planning permission for development there unless he funds their new ground at Win...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Wolverhampton Wanderers (a) sponsored by Sammy Chung

Howie wasn't even the worst keeper at the club at the time he was here. We had Peter van der Kwaak as well. Not to mention others like Gary Phillips, Nick Colgan and Simon Shepherd. Virginia is definitely deserves to be in that sort of company though. He's been worth a goal start to the opposition ...

Re: Nova leaves on permanent deal

Sad to see him go, but Puscas, Joao and Meite with Loader up and coming? Which of those would you drop for him? In an ideal world with money growing on trees keep everyone, but overall I'd rather the above minus Nova. Yep, I hear ya. We only got Joao, Puscas and Boye across the line very late in th...

Re: Nova leaves on permanent deal

on the face of it it looks like he wasn't given a chance at reading despite being sucessfull elsewhere and so on. but because of that there must be something in training that makes him not worth taking a chance on. surely just based on his stats alone you would give him more of a chance - how bad m...

Re: Crowd for Charlton

We got to 3rd and then Wembley under Stam and I hated the season. I'm not explaining myself very well here... many of the backs-to-the-wall games we then nicked 1-0, THEY brought joy (IMO, to me). They felt special, that whole season did, because we out-did ourselves, we found something more. Heh, ...

Re: BFTG - Charlton

Good away performance by Charlton in the Champ. Survive early storms, get it to 0-0 at HT, and go from there. Did what they had to do and came to do. Didn't look 'special' doing it, but they weren't trying to be. As you'd expect, well versed in the dark arts under Bowyer, which is effective in these...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Charlton Athletic (h) sponsored by Dave Shipperley

Right on HT, Puscas one on one with keeper, good save, but he has to bury that really.

Charlton impressive, had more possession than us, passed it around well, also done the niggly/dirty stuff too.

John Madejski's Wallet Looking good on the ball so far

Should have scored the one that hit the crossbar as Charlton look like they've got a goal in them.

We've shaded it, without having many efforts on target.

Yes, Charlton playing it around well and look dangerous.

Lot's of fouls, ref struggling to control it.

But it's a relatively young team who are learning to play together; I fully expect inconsistency and some bafflingly poor performances to go against games like Sunday. Well, sure. And you can have that happen with an old, experienced team too. Yep, agree, there may be inconsistencies with young pla...
