Mounts Kipper Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Pretty happy with that performance looked motivated committed and played with good shape and discipline definitely need a goal scorer though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOWTUN BAKED Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 3 matches now that Howard has impressed me more than Amos. Thought the gap between midfield & Madine was too large in the first half & slow to support when we got it forward. Shame about the late goal, as the 10 minutes or so before there was some good football played, no surprise it was played mostly by the younger ones. Good movement off the ball, good quick passing & a couple of great balls played in the channels to exploit Woolery's pace. I'd like to see it again to count the number of passes that led to the chance on goal. I hope Dervites injury doesn't mean we'll be panicked into offering Wheater a contract! Not that I'd be sad to see Dervite leave too. Definitely an area that needs sorting sooner rather than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Alf Hartigan Posted July 27, 2016 Site Supporter Share Posted July 27, 2016 Don't usually do pre season games, but went tonight. Completely at odds with the the doom merchants on here, nothing but optimism from that performance. Top 2 will be in our reach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrener Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I thought it was a good performance against a strong Burnley side Jay spearing mom for me, only concern going into the new season is up front were we need a goalscorer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eavesy Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I thought it was a good performance against a strong Burnley side Jay spearing mom for me, only concern going into the new season is up front were we need a goalscorer Not sure what chances our players 'missed' yesterday that a goal scorer wouldn't have missed? Unless you mean a goal scorer who can get the ball 40 yards out and create a goal himself? If we are creating lots of gilt edge chances and blasting them wide every 2 minutes you are probably right. But right now we have other priorities like a winger, and deciding which of the defender trialists are staying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birch-chorley Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 A proven goal scorer is key this season or getting lucky with an unproven one coming good You get one of those and your in the running in the third tier Let's offer Cardiff a straight swap, season loan deal Mavies for ALF - I'd rather pay ALF £20k per week than Mavies, it's just a case of convincing them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrener Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Gray got on the ball and won the penalty which he scored he also created another chance for himself which was saved, Madine and woolery did nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be fantastic. ALF would score a shit load at this level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevieb Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Yes I'd throw Josh Vela into that deal as well. Can we throw Gary Madine down the stairs whilst we're at it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrelli Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 No, I think Madine/Proctor with ALF would work. Josh Vela has got CMS -Continual malaise syndrome - and needs a new start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannyroad58 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Just because ALF has been made available doesn't mean to say that even if we were interested he'd come and play in division 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
