Hopefully it’ll be reverse situation this season… the nagging doubt is that teams who lose in play off finals rarely go up the season after. Quote

If we lose to Hudds in Pizza Cup we'll have nothing other than league football from mid December to May. The scope for excuses about fatigue at the back end of season will be much less. Quote

You would hope so, but i wouldnt underestimate their influence If they are linked to the swiss, especially Quote
frank_spencer Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 Id imagine they've been involved with the Schon and Tutu signings less so with the others. Quote

It would hold some weight if our results were different against big teams/in big games but we lost exactly the same games first and second halves of the season as you would have expected us to lose. The issue was our second half of the season was harder Same this year Agreed. If we'd beaten Carlisle and drawn with Bristol Rovers, both at home and pre-Christmas, we'd have gone into the last game of the season knowing a win takes us up. We didn't lose at home in the 2nd half of the season, and scored plenty, it was generally just our inability to perform in the bigger games that cost us. Which 11 players were available to start on the day wasn't the main factor IMO, looking at the evidence of the last 2 or 3 years.

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted November 30, 2024 Site Supporter Posted November 30, 2024 As he's mentioned before, it will be "busy in both directions". I don't think he is getting a load more, but will have to generate income. We don't have enough squad places neither, so some will have to go. Morley would seem an obvious candidate. Quote
Members Lt. Aldo Raine Posted November 30, 2024 Members Posted November 30, 2024 It was rumoured Ludonautics were involved in the Schon deal, but I don't think they'll really play a big part in our recruitment until/if we get promoted to the league above Quote

Just a shame he's being asked to do two jobs, only one of which he has experience in. Quote

Farnywhite Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 We’re going backwards instead of forwards and this started way back in Jan so we have had almost a year of regression blowing automatic this year blowing a play off final and now we’re at a point now we’re we have conceded 10 less goals already than the whole of last season . The chances of automatic are already slipping away and in current form by the end of Jan we can forget it . A evatt team at best in another play off nobody would be confident with this set up . He needs to go and at least give  new manger half a season 2 transfer windows for a push next season Quote
