Get to the New Year in the upper half of the table and push on from there. Next job - pick up some home wins. On the topic of home wins. They had plenty (ok 30/40! - but in present climate that’s more than I’ve seen!) of “official staff”/fans potted around the stadium who were quite vocal. Can we get a few more “official staff” in there to cheer the boys on? I might see if I can pass off as my 80 year old dad! (Tour guide for bwfc) and use his pass/“status” to get into these home games 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blondi Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I think someone mentioned Jordan Archer on here recently, out of contract keeper, presume we can still sign a freebie? Evatt needs to sort out our goalkeeping situation, because Crellin is going to cost us a lot of points this season if he perseveres with him.

Surely Taft can do a job at left back and Brockbank right back? That gets Baptiste out and allows us to have another midfielder (Darcy). IE has signed 4 left footed defenders - its not like he's inherited them, he's talked them up as good players - and doesn't seem to rate any of them at the moment.

Sounds like Evatt putting his own ego before his player’s mentality, which isn’t good IMO However, it all depends on the reaction from the keeper as to if it’s the right thing or not If thats the extent of his comments, im just about onside He got a reaction after oldham and hopefully he knows how to push crellins buttons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they looked good at the back today and didn’t really look to be in any trouble, taking away Crellin’s error. And they created chances going forward. A good balance. After a positive performance like that I wouldn’t be in a rush to change his formation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conveniently forgetting he threw quite a few ricks too. It happens. It's how he responds now Made a few mistakes out of about 20 shots every game that he faced. Tell me one game last season when he didnt make saves. I just dont see Crellin making saves, that free kick at Barrow from Taylor - Matthews would have caught that. Just poor all round keeper, its not like there's one problem area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutch Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Matthews and Crelin are like chalk and cheese Crelin won’t be playing for us on Tuesday and I’d be surprised If he plays again for us this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimron Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 It looked like a proper winning team out there and I was more than happy, ironic that the time we come out with a Barcelona shirt we stopped playing that slow tip tappy stuff at the back. Crelin seemed to take his eye off the ball at a critical moment, no idea why but it happened and you win and lose as a team, being slated with an OG is unfair although it did look a bit Felgate-esque. Not sure about a manager publicly criticising a player, that sort of thing should be kept behind closed doors in my opinion. Lets hope we keep that intensity and kick on now. I used to work in Cambridge and I have received a few texts today from U's supporters I know telling me we look like a top half side (and they had an off day).

Its just puzzling why our's is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popeye doyle Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I too was happy to see a bit less tippy tippy at the back and we looked comfortable against a team scoring for fun. This team will improve as the season progresses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masi 51 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Crellin is not the problem Baptiste is ! Crellin is decent for his age but should not be in our first team........Crellin does not pick the team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt. Aldo Raine Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Probably the best disallowed goal we've ever "scored". Still, it can't help but be good for confidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems incredible that anyone can question Delaney playing. Literally not put a foot wrong in the previous 2 home games. So if he made a mistake or 2 today, that's allowed, like Van Dyke does occasionally. If you want to drop a player you have to suggest a better replacement.

London Wanderer Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Thought we were the better team today and looked sharper going forward and better organised at the back. Not bad at all against top of the league away. I think it will be a slow recovery but signs we could push the playoffs second half of the season. Crellin can't play the next game surely. Got to get a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He tracks back well and doesn't take chances. Allows sarce to push on. I'm going to guess that Tutte is the only player yet to get "he is shite" treatment off anyone on here. There's an argument for him to be first name on teamsheet if we choose to play with that type of player instead of the more dynamic Darcy. Yet IE keeps dropping him in favour of Comley, who was presumably injured to not be on the bench. I still expect Comley to be back the next time he's available in the same way Crellin will be persevered with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
