Johnnyrotten Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 24 minutes ago, captainmed said: People forget Ray was not scoring for a good while before his injury and people were saying he needed a rest. Headless chicken. He's scored from open play in 3 home games this season, the same as Bod and Iredale, less than Tomo. (Collins has scored in 5 home games just in March and April). He does have more success away from home but in home games he seems to lack composure, maybe because of the nature of the packed defences we're usually up against at home, who knows. I'd be happy for Vic to be fit for the play off 2nd leg, he's scored in twice as many home games as Charles this season and has a bit more ability to retain possession.

gonzo Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Collins is absolutely superb. Well on his way to be a proper fans favourite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyrotten Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 28 minutes ago, Mounts Kipper said: Without a doubt… and even if he does not score it’s a massive weapon in our armoury and we’ve missed it badly. We do miss his energy and pressing, and he has pace if balls are played into space like when he got away a couple of times yesterday on the left (1 cross cut out, 1 weak shot). But when its back to goal or a tight situation we lose a lot because he's often too easily dispossessed or sloppy with his control or passing.

W.cramp Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Thought we weren't to bad yesterday, yes it was against a poor vale side but just thought we looked to be no risk tackles and possibly no over exertion. Loving Collins and the fact we now have a player who wants the ball and then 'puts his laces through it'. Toal has slipped into the Santos walking football mode and yeah fine when we are a couple of goals up but not at 0-0, up yer game young lad. Also praise for nam ploy yesterday, me first visit and was impressed, packed in and out before the game and no waits for a beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolton va va Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 I'd be concerned about Charles if he wasn't getting any chances, but even in his lean goalscoring spell, with his striker's instinct & movement, he's still getting chances & it's only a matter of time before they start going in again.

Collins, Victor, Big Dan, Charles and Gomes next year for our strike force, Collins, Big Dan and Gomes aren't going anywhere. So if an offer for Victor or Charles comes in, they'll go.

radcliffe white Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 (edited) Certainly not saying move Charles on but I do wonder if he’s physical enough for the championship if we was to get promoted, you look about and teams have absolute beasts at the back Edited April 21 by radcliffe white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bolton va va Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Bodvarsson is the only forward who'll be leaving in the summer unless we get a mad offer for someone. Charles, Vic, Collins & CMG will get their chance whichever division we're in, possibly with another Dan-type gamble. If we stay down, Jerome could probably continue as a fairly cheap , bit part player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had £100 each way on the title at 7/1 with Sky Bet I'm not sure, and can't seem to find out easily, whether they pay out on 3rd or 4th place, or both, or neither so hope we finish 3rd and that counts towards each way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deffo, think back to Barnsley in play offs last season. We only had Bradley capable of unlocking them. They soon figured him out and nullified them. An on form Paris and Collins can pick anyone apart. ....Need to pray Dion finds some form pretty sharpish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
