My prediction of baka finishing top scorer is still on.

Even if there isn't too much to play for, at least a bit of a competition up front should keep them motivated to score goals.

What’s the current list?

That’s one of the worst games of professional association football I’ve ever seen

Kidded myself at HT that against the wind and without the sun on our eyes we’d play football unlike the first half and pass them off the park 2nd half. Deluded clearly.

One thing you can say this is that this team of ours so often keeps going til the end.

i thought JDB was our best player and unlucky to go off, especially for a like for like, but Mr Evatt got it right (again) given the goal and result.

Felt sorry for Sadlier; seemed more a RB with Aimson behind him. I’d like to see him as a 10 for Dapo or as the RWB with Jones behind him to give him a fair shot.

all interesting for next season. And another pitch we’ve visited 😇

I think a back four is the way to go until the end of the season.

Dapo is still never a no.10

Dapo is better out wide. Don't know about today, but last week we were better when he gave CD and JDB more room and a bit of service.

Correct for me - it’s too tight for him in there; especially as he slows it down so much.

Wide left or sub for me

I don't blame Evatt for giving it a go but it's not worked. He's also too good to leave out. Sort of challenges his formation thinking.

Dapo had dried up a bit wide left though. Teams sussed him a bit.

From time to time he's played some lovely balls through for strikers whilst in a deeper position.

I'd be interested to see the number of assists and chances he's made in a central role as opposed to his wide one.

Perhaps the issue is more complex though- again only 2 midfielders today, with Sadlier replacing fossey.

So long as we win, then I suppose its fine, but I felt that last week, against a better side, it did us no favours.

More specifically on Dapo, he definitely seems a confidence player and sometimes his shoulders slump and his body language can be a bit off. A goal would see him right.

Dapo’s not played well for weeks, he’s due a spell of coming on from the bench, but put him out wide.

Seeing as the season seems to be easing into mid table mediocrity, maybe it's time to give Sadlier and Dempsey as bit of a run.

See what they can give us as we plan for next season

Nothing special for me today

but not in his position 

He wasn’t Special today, but neither was Fossey with Aimson behind him in fairness

Agree with most Dapo not a 10 and Sadlier not a wing back get jones back play 4 at the back Dapo out wide with either Sadlier or Dempsey through the middle.

Posted

Any adjustment that takes Aimson out of the equation will do me for. Absolute clogger 

fear for MJ too. Don’t get me wrong the impact he made last season and the extra level of protection he brought in was superb. There’s probably many reasons he wasnt getting a look in at blackpool at this level and I think we’re starting to see some of them. A yard off at best for starters..

What a great day out . Last minute winner !!.

Early start , disaster no rattler from Howfen . Jumped a taxi  with the Dog to Trinity Street.  Grumpy Bat , Sputnik , Pinocheo's Dad , Ju's Jugs , Barney Rubble, F1 guy  and the Offspring. 

Once again rattler cancelled ended up on the Dogdale train to Victoria.  Route march to Piccadily.  9.01  to Crewe. Early Dart and Mr Smith waiting at taxi rank . NO bloody taxis !!

Blagged a lift to Nantwich and The Railway Hotel . Full English all round . Decent pints. Whispering Bob arrived  and took us on a tour of Nantwich pubs ,prior to getting Buzz to Crewe .

Phone call from Ashburner St , thankfully Jeep and the 2 musketeers had took him under their wing .

Straight into the Brunswick,  Wanderers in full voice . Excellent buxom barmaids .

Onto the stadium,  Ashburner St returned to the fold .

Non eventful first half but the appearance of Swedish Al at halftime was a pleasant surprise. 

2nd half was like pulling teeth , but Bakayoko raised the roof . Bolton's finest in full voice.  Back to the Brunswick,  great ale ,Mikkey D on form.

Mikkey D's entourage handing out Donner Kebabs to the starving masses ( Well  The Dog ).

Tried 2 other pubs but they were garbage.  Onto the train station,  The Dog and Embankment grabbed the Pie Eaters rattler.

Wanderers fans in full voice.

Yes Crewe is a belting day out.

Ju's Jugs and the Offspring a very welcome addition to the group.

Roll on the Superwhites.
