If you’re in Bolton it would be alarming, but presuming you’re in Plymouth? 

In Plymouth yeah. But the last time I was down here I mentioned on here seeing Sarcevic, Doyle and Brockbank at Costa and they were all gone within a month 🤣

In which case, can you go looking for some more players, please?

😆 Please can you go on a wander, calling out Apter’s name on a megaphone?

Don’t want to alarm anyone but we’ve just walked past George Johnston going for a brew 

What’s George Johnston doing going for a brew did you ask him?

A strong brew wouldn't wake Apter up. Not shown anything yet.

Just on the train from Par to Plymouth and thinking about 5 of our signings/loans this year. Duberry, CBT, Apter, Forss and Erhahon. 

On paper these 5 signings should have been absolute quality for a side looking for promotion. But through a combination of injury and not quite fulfilling their potential we’ve unfortunately not had any consistency on a regular basis from any of them.

I imagine it’s not only a head-scratcher and frustration for us, but also Schumacher.

If they’d have all kept fit, been available all season and shown just a modicum of the talent they’ve demonstrated in this league and above It would have made a massive difference.

But GJ drinks tea and that’s acceptable whereas the other three were fucking coffee drinks so no wonder they got moved on

ACD, CBT and EE are all on the positive side of the line. The other 2 are very much not.

If Apter has a Stormer today then he may be on his way to show something but at the minute he's worse than Craig Noone

If they were all fit then I don’t think they’d all necessarily be playing tbf

EE has been fairly disappointing the last few months, but I think he’s a(nother) victim of the system not really suiting him.

I can see a player in Apter, but he’s the one player who I think could actually work as a 10 but not bothered giving him a shot there.

Forss looked promising early doors but that seems like a lifetime ago.

If we don't go up, I wonder if we'll reassess our strategy of taking a punt on players with a history of injuries

ACD and CBT would

The others, with the form they’ve shown for us, no.

But Forss, Apter, Erhahon - I still maintain, they should have been great for us if they’d have fulfilled their potential. I think they’d be playing every week if they’d consistently shown the form they had done for the other clubs they’d played for. 

And it’s not like SS hasn’t given them all chances, in their favoured positions too.

Disappointing really.

Anyway what am I doing sitting on the waterfront being all negative 😂.

See you on the other side.

We’re in the Dolphin and about to head to the Ship 👍 

Hugh game. COYWM. 1-2 Dalby and Toal.

Think I would prefer the 352 today with tutu on Conway Wingbacks. Leave the wingers on the bench if we need them.

If that’s the lineup we’ll get fucking battered today

Schumacher told him to go for a brew so he dont go for one every time we have a corner

Kyle Dempsey misses out due to family reasons.

So no defensive midfielders then.

No Ehrahon or Simons in squad at all, bit weird unless injured?

Compared to my team, that does suggestuggest Sheehan and Rodrigues as a two and then McAtee, Kenny and Gale in behind

No central midfielder on the bench either. Not a lot of mobility to change things up at all.
