Cogley has been a really positive signing, in my eyes at least, so can only guess it’s his turn to be scapegoat. He was signed as one of the two options at RB/RWB, wit Hickman being the other It was just that Gordon and Greenidge were so shit we had to shunt him over to the left hand side to cover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cogley has been a really positive signing, in my eyes at least, so can only guess it’s his turn to be scapegoat. To be clear I just think Jones is a better wingback than Cogley, more to his game, a bit more physical and creative. No scapegoat, no calling anyone shit, no saying get rid, just an opinion on players in our squad. Same as I think Forrester could be an improvement on Jones at CB but I've seen less of him so I'm a bit undecided. Just differences of opinion/discussion, no scapegoats.

Certainly felt like he played more than that as even upon seeing his name I knew what position he was and that he went to Scunthorpe when he left us, and yet I can forget entire teams from other years.

Hickman is now aged 25. We wete his 7th club. He's now at Halesowen ... his 14th club. They're something like 10th tier, mid table in the Southern League Central Divsion. He played 4 games for us.

I just think we haven't seen it much for a while, he's gone a bit "safe" and rarely escapes his marker. Hopefully it's just temporary because be seems to have the right attitude.

Moderators Casino Posted December 14, 2023 Moderators Share Posted December 14, 2023 on cogley, if he actually has changed his game and its not just the novelty has worn off, why would you think its not at evatts instruction or because other teams have cottoned on and worked him out a bit good players find another way evatt has options like he has options now with the strike force and midfield it'll be interesting to see which way he goes i dont think much will change, unless their are january additions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitesince63 Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 After his injury, what’s the chances of Bradley coming back to us in January? I can’t see him getting into the Liverpool squad and there’s no way he’ll want to appear for the reserves again so surely a few months here and a possible promotion push might just appeal to both player and club?
