  1. He’s offering absolutely no threat going forward at the moment. Move jones forward and get Forrester back in.
  2. The lack of a plan B is hurting us badly. Losing against our local rivals and still playing 5 at the back is almost unforgivable. 3 strikers on the pitch and we put about one cross in after they scored. What’s the point having them up there if we’re not lumping it or crossing it. Lose to Barnsley and that’s automatics gone.
  3. 3 Strikers on the pitch as well but no one there to supply any quality in to them. I still think Evatts the man for us but I just don’t get this tactic. Why aren’t we taking a centre half off and getting more forward quality on the pitch.
  4. It was, horrendous defending. I’ve barely seen Forrester put a foot wrong and i don’t think that goal occurs if he’s playing ahead of Jones.
  5. They’ve had no service to be fair.
  6. When we lose the first goal we always seem to struggle. Teams just sit deep and we struggle to break them down. time for a change of shape but I’m not sure Evatt will change his ways.
  7. Bodvarsson came on with Collins and changed the game against Barnsley. Not sure how Jerome comes on ahead of him.
  8. Christ, we equalise and Evatt brings Jerome on. That’s one way to kill the little momentum we had.
  9. There’s a couple of buffoons sitting in east lower who were shouting and screaming till they were red in the face for us to boot it long for the majority of the game. Our home support hasn’t been great for a long time. It seems a lot of people just expect us to roll over any team that comes. Yesterday was a decent point against a team who’ll at least make the playoffs.
  10. There’s a couple of buffoons sitting in east lower who were shouting and screaming till they were red in the face for us to boot it long for the majority of the game. Our home support has been pretty poor for a long time. It seems people just expect us to roll over any team that comes.
  11. It does seem a funny signing. He’s clearly a good player at this level but has played most of his career prior to us on the wing. When he’s coming on it’s been as a midfielder rather than a striker. Can’t see evatt playing him against any of the better sides in that role as he looks a bit of a liability defensively as it’s something he’s never really had to do much.
  12. Superb performance against premier league opposition. Special mentions to Forrester and Cogley.
  13. It’s hardly a fair comparison though is it.. Bods first game against the toughest opposition in the league and his second game we go down to 10 men? He’s an Icelandic international and had more championship appearances than Vic will ever have. We don’t lose Santos today and it’s a different story.
  14. Gomes and Dempsey on please. We need legs.
  15. JDB and Jones were comfortably our best on the night. Williams really struggled and seems to be out most obvious weak link. It’s a shame Evatt can’t bury the hatchett with John as he’s still our best LWB.
  16. Excluding some questionable finishing that was up there with one of our best away performances of the last few years. Bod, maghoma and morley in particular were superb. 5 clean sheets in a row now as well.
  17. Great run and ball from Maghoma. Excellent finish from Bod too
  18. Not the best performance but a brilliant win especially considering our form against any of our rivals over the last few years. Santos superb again, I’d be amazed if there’s a better centre back in league one. Maghoma is a great addition also . Only negative for me was Victor, I just don’t know what he offers. Can’t shoot, can’t pass, can’t hold the ball up, doesn’t win headers. The difference between him and Bodvarsson is night and day.
  19. Super win. Toal and Santos magnificent again.
  20. Spot on, as a manager this is one of the main things holding Evatt and us back. Not one real captain in the entirety of our team. Evatt is constantly barking instructions but you barely see anyone in our entire team even talk to each other. Anyway, moments of brilliance in the first half but that second half is up there with one of the worst I can remember. While Randell ultimately won us the game, he’s a shocking player. Victor not much better, can see Bodvarsson leaving in January as it must be personal for him not to be starting. Less said about Nlundulu the better.
  21. Must be something going on between Bodvarsson and Evatt. The whole fan base can see that technically he’s our best forward. We never seem to control the games where Thomason sits deep and santos is missing. I’d still rather see Sheehan sit deep to allow us to get a hold of the ball better.
  22. Correct, considering Evatt likes us to control possession, be intelligent with the ball, we’ve signed players who clearly aren’t capable of that. Johnstone is proving to be a huge miss this year also. Our left side of iredale and Williams is lower league one at best.
  23. Could be a very valuable point towards the end of the season. Bodvarsson was excellent when he came on. Need him in that starting lineup ASAP
  24. I like Thomason but he can’t play in that holding slot. He’s making at least a couple of defensive mistakes in there and he lacks the physicality. We’ve got rid of Williams and not replaced him. Recruitment looking poorer and poorer as the weeks go on.
  25. Santos would have been crucial against Clarke Harris, he’s bossed him every time we’ve played. Think we could struggle aerially today as we’ve no height across the team. Hopefully Charles is firing on all cylinders.
