ianofcleveleys Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 For me, this is going to be a test of nerve till maybe end of Feb, by when, hopefully, Evatt has got in the two of three more he wants, they've bedded in and are making a difference, along with Lee and John. We need to set up solid during Feb and grind out four or five results, ideally including clean sheets, so we go into March stabilised a bit and with a bit of confidence from getting those results. We could still have a decent finish to the season then. In the meantime it could get twitchy as we don't look much like getting a result against anybody. To be honest, I'd sacrifice a couple of players in the squad at minute to bolster the coaching ranks, preferably with some nouse and experience. Appreciate it might be about different budgets and it might not be straightforward, but just now we need coaching support and expertise more than squad fillers who are nowhere near playing.

But we only beat the team that's put in front of us if its in the bottom 6, with 2 exceptions so far. So its more to do with the standard of opposition than us suddenly finding form for 4 games.

I posted something along these lines last summer. Our squad is way,way to big and i was laughed at saying 18/20 was enough for this season'. Currently we have around 30 players in and around the first team about a dozen of these are picking up a wage and have no chance of a start come Saturday We have players like Miller,Greenidge,Isgrove and to a extent Lee who we signed with fitness issues I Would like us to have a squad of 15 quality for this league next season and maybe 8 under 21 Politic,Thomason,Riley,Finlay locket, and Sonny Graham are the future of this club and should be in or around the first team squad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old saying of two wrongs don't make a right? It doesn't matter who fucked up earlier, Delaney still has to do better. He's the only one to get near the ball. Concede the corner or throw in, but make connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeps pressing the powers that be, with the hierarchy of the club, in the right way. Good on him generally though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ani Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 That is an incredible decision. Basically saying if the ref makes a mistake it is ok for a manager to have a go at him on the pitch. Or whatever Evatt said did not justify a yellow or the subsequent red. Either way makes the ref look a right twat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ani Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 The decision not to give a free kick and a card for the challenge on Saucey was as bad as it can get. Either a foul (which it was) or book Saucey for diving add that to changing his mind when shouted at for the penalty. Evatt has got things wrong but the ref was a major factor on Saturday.
