July 31, 20251 yr JDC 's nowhere near McAtee's standard at waving and pointing, a mere apprentice by comparison He's a dependable, durable sort, by no means one of our bigger problems last season, whether he's a vocal organiser from the back I'm not sure. I'm also not convinced he's a genuine right back in the 4 SS wants to play but we'll find out over the next few weeks.

If players aren't doing their job properly then any other player can have a word, then theres also the manager on the sideline It's not like in cricket where they make on field decisions I think if given to the right character, then a captain can help set the tone for a football team too. John Terry under Mourinho being an obvious example. And to use the cricket comparison, Ben Stokes and Joe Root both played while the other was captain and yet the teams were very different in style. A big part of that being the influence of the captain. But if that kind of natural leader isn't there, arbitrarily giving someone an armband isn't going to make much difference I'd agree.

He’s had 2 injuries and neither of them would have kept him out for long if he had treated them at the time instead of continuing to play either at the request of the manager or through his own stubbornness. oh. ok i stand corrected

Cogley is hardly Diouf or Robbie Savage is he? If he did it as much as suggested he'd get stick off other fans and get booked every week. I've never noticed it once. me either don’t think we have anyone the calibre of Kevin Nolan for shouting and waving/pointing

I think he's had more than two injuries tbh. When he first signed he struggled with some muscle injury and missed a lot of games. Then he did his back. Then his hamstring. Then his knee. I like him btw.
July 31, 20251 yr Looks like we are going in to Stockport away with Max Conway at LB then. Hopefully he steps up and grabs his chance. Such are the circumstances in which careers blossom. .... my only other thought was to wonder whether Taylor is actually fit in time.

Truth be told, no one has a clue if he’ll be any good, same with most of the other signings! Just got to trust the recruitment team have improved!
July 31, 20251 yr Conway has looked comfortable, and has deserved the opportunity. Even if Taylor has recovered from the injury, he's short on match sharpness.

July 31, 20251 yr I'm pretty sure ST sales just about covers the wages from the close season. Thats about it.

I really wish people would leave off Conway, he’s been one of the most consistent and effective players this pre season and fully deserves his place in the starting line up. I just hope the other ten can do as well.

Did you miss the second 45 minutes, or the other games? He done very well, and probably exceeded expectations of the vast majority of us.
July 31, 20251 yr Conway was entitled to have his hands full with Small and Offiah getting forward to support him. He was left 1 on 1 with him too often early on, then SS must have got some words on and, with a bit of support, he got to grips with him. Second half Small did nothing of note, Offiah was pushed back and struggled, Conway started the attack for the second goal. He's a bit of work still to do on his defending, he knows that, SS has said so, but that doesn't mean he's a high risk choice on Sunday

In possession, I was very impressed- he looks comfortable, strong with a touch of pace, and has an eye for the odd goal too. Hopefully, with a but more solidity in midfield, we can accommodate the occasional foray forward.

He’s looked decent going forward but he’s a lot to do on the defensive side of his game.

July 31, 20251 yr Fans want us to spend millions on some player who's played in the Irish Premier League at most.. but don't want to change a "player of the season" from the League below us..
