May 25May 25 I'm in the naughty corner with Tutu, called him a few names over the months about his deficiencies as a RB, but more than happy to see how he's improved in late season and proved me wrong. Excellent throughout these play offs. Against that, happy to be proved right about sticking by Dalby back in those days last year when he hadn't been fit, only had bits and pieces of game time and we hadn't worked out how to help him thrive.

May 25May 25 Popular Post I was praying for Ryan Hardie. The shit injured cunt has barely kicked a ball this season, meanwhile Dalby played a prime Kevin Davies yesterday. That layup for ACD was as good as his goal. We all know fuck all. (Apart from @Zog1oobviously)

He's not had the chance to establish himself in the team. Called it 😛 13 goals, 7 assists.. Boom!

May 25May 25 Reminds me so much of SKD (I know he did it for 9 years in the prem) he’s everything you want from an old fashioned CF, a class act. If there was VAR in league 1 I’m sure we would get a pen a game. Hes literally assaulted every match, there’s one TV angle that shows yesterday’s goal and the CH is all over him.

Our main man for me In one of the interviews Dalby looks like he’s got a proper scratch around his throat. Reckon it’s from his goal

We all get it wrong sometimes. The esteem we held Simons in for eg. SS thinking Apter was the answer and that Taylor was our next left sided CB. If we know nothing, we aren't alone. We're all saying we should have given Dalby, Cissoko and Tutu half a season before judging them, does that mean we bring Apter back because he's only had a few starts? Course not, its OK to comment on players after a few games, we're football fans, and if the players improve that's great, it doesn't mean initial comments were invalid at the time. A year ago folk were saying we'd only be able to sign TSL for this season if we got promoted. Thank god we went up, we can join the queue of clubs hoping to get him back. Or did SS get that one wrong too? We all do it, fans and managers.

May 27May 27 Aye left back who could slot in at CB if needed. The combination of him being a bit shit and off field family issues (iirc) meant that never came to pass.
