Get him back on a short term contract… that’s if he’s kept in training. Edited September 24, 2023 by Mounts Kipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think Evatt trusted his body. As above, new lads will hopefully sort that when fit again. Just the 33 League games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said, barely played at the end, and many of his appearances were as a sub. Not sure what point you're trying to make, as the fact still remains, that main midfielders this season played most of last. Injuries aside, the two new lads I would expect to contribute more minutes eventually than Lee did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainmed Posted September 24, 2023 Author Share Posted September 24, 2023 (edited) Our midfield is poor and we’re obvs missing Traff & Bradley. We’re crying out for a midfield bastard. The team is weaker than last season IMO but so is the league. We’ll get in the play-offs but I was hoping for top 2 and I really can’t see it.

Reality is; we're 8 games into a 46 game season, sitting 5 pts off top with a game in hand. Some of you lot are proper drama queens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianofcleveleys Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 It's a long old season in L1, the stop start nature of the first half doesn't help, along with us having so many out at minute, including two new lads. I'm not seeing much evidence yet of our summer outs and ins and our pre season work adding up to improvement on where and how we ended last season but, to be fair, it may not be worth forming any big judgements till we're getting towards Xmas, with about 20 games done. That'll give us a strong sense of what's going to be needed in Jan window and how badly. Easy to get on a big roll from Feb to the end, as we've seen before.

We were always going to be weaker without Bradley and Lee (before his legs went) Anyone that says Declan John is better than Williams is talking shite btw. Plus hes a massive cunt with a chip on his shoulder. Need CMG and Mags to crack on when theyre back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Cheese Posted September 24, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted September 24, 2023 Some people need to accept you're not going to get many - if any - decent all-rounders at this level. For all the stick Iredale has got over a couple of mistakes, he dinged some absolute pin-point diagonals to JDC on Saturday. Same goes for Thomason. And Randell made plenty of defensive contributions, but all the focus goes on the times he slips up. Every player at this level has mistakes in them. It's the nature of where we are. Don't know what planet people are living on sometimes - particularly with the level of vitriol some aim at players in white shirts, telling them to fuck off and calling them "useless cunts" etc. As though that's going to help matters. Thick as fuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radcliffe white Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 The budget thing is bollocks Portsmouth & Oxford have recruited well and haven’t spent what we have like I’ve said many times IE wants a certain type and perhaps he needs to go basics to get out of this league Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
