Re: Joao Replacement

Yup I disagree that we should rely on the academy lads, as promising as they look. We have to get someone in

Re: Joao Replacement

We’re either going to have to sign a couple of wingers and go 4-4-2 to suit Puscas…plus Azeez seems more of a striker than wide player. Might not suit our central midfield though & that’s our strongest position. Or get a striker who can play up top on his own. What’s the cheapest option right now?

Re: Relegation

When I checked the table yday I thought 3 points in 4 would see us in the bottom 3. I was very surprised that we’re 18th! You’d expect Sheff Utd & Forest to get out of there, but it’s taking shape down there. I’d expect Blackpool & Preston to stay down there. Derby will pick up injuries so w...

Re: Injury watch 2021/22

What I don’t understand is how, since Adkins came in, our injuries have become a lot worse than they used to be. We used to be the fittest team before then. Is it the type of players we’ve signed being injury-prone? Or yet more mismanagement? I think its a combination of increased focus on passing ...

Re: Pauno out

If teams like Sunderland, Ipswich, Pompey and Burton cannot get promoted from L1, we got no oxf*rd chance after we get related and lose players like Cabral, Swift, Rino etc Some teams fell to league 2. Like Bolton and Coventry, Burton and Portsmouth. Wigan almost did last season. The same could hap...

Re: Pauno out

There’s not a lot that convinces me that Pauno will be adequate in a relegation battle. Still think sacking Bowen was rash & could come back to haunt us. Reminds me a lot of when we got rid of Brian v2 and replaced with Stam. We had 1 good season, but then 2-3 very poor finishes. Brian would hav...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Coventry City (a)

4-4-2 diamond today we reckon? Or are we trying Dele at LWB?

Really hope we’re not going to persist with McIntyre at left back.

Still feels harsh on Holmes after Tuesday’s shambles

Re: Rumour - Yannick Bolasie & Junior Hoilett

Happy with this signing…a wide option, which we’ve needed for ages.

We need bodies & for where we’re going to be in the league this season, it’s about as good as we can hope for

Re: Joao Replacement

Jordan Hugill won't be getting much game time at Norwich this season with the players they've signed. Maybe too expensive. Would be a good option though. Wouldn't be adverse to him on loan, if Norwich are happy for us to only cover 8k or less of his wages. Relatively slim pickings on the free agent...

Re: Relegation

NathStPaul We have more than enough going forward to stay up this season, I would be very surprised to see us anywhere near the bottom 3 come next May.


You write that before the Joao injury confirmation?

Relying on 2 academy lads with 3 apps and 1 off the bench, and blunt Puscas is not going to keep us up

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bristol City (h)

I think the central defence is going to be an issue for a few games now as I don’t think anyone has a clue which out of the 4 is the best. If Morrison has lost it, we’re in deep trouble as he has been Mr Reliable. As many have alluded to already, Moore is no more than 6/10 every week, and not showin...

Re: BFTG - Brizzle

tee peg One up front at home is a no go, especially Puscas.


The 1st half we played with 2 in 3-5-2.

You couldn’t tell though as the 2 strikers didn’t link. Azeez put himself out a lot more than Puscas

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bristol City (h)

What's the story here? Must have passed me by Adie said our defence wouldn’t be getting sleepless nights knowing Martin was up front for them. Which is a valid point seeing as he’s average and past it. Gooding said he was useless for us 3 years ago so he’s not going to be much good now. But forgot ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bristol City (h)

Shocking defending. I’d like to see Holmes in there if we’re going to play 3 at the back. Thanks to the radio slagging off Martin, he’s now gone and put one in. Little did they remember that he was actually ill for the that time…poor punditry by Mick in particular I'd forgotten that. It came out af...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bristol City (h)

You can't carry on scoring 2 each game and not win. Defence needs a sort out. Precisely. Defence is very poor. Can’t go on like this. Not sure what needs adjusting but something does. Perhaps a specialist left back might make the difference? In the space of 12 months we’ve gone from 3 Senior left b...

In for a long hard season after that. Hard not to overreact, but dross against a poor side.

Dele-Bashiru looked good. Azeez looked good.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bristol City (h)

That’s got to be a low point in Puscas’ career…being pulled off for a 17 yr old who’s never played before.

Think I’ve now officially given up with Puscas. Yes we’re not set up to get the best out of him, but he also doesn’t do enough & finishing has been poor

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bristol City (h)

Dellor “Dele-Bashkiria has done more in 20 min than Bristow did for the whole 1st half”

Could it be because he’s playing in the centre of the park Tim?
