Talking about Plymouth.  How the fook are they 3rd.  Yes they beat us on what was our worst performance of the season but fookinel they were shite.  One of the worst we will see all season apart from mk Dons Quote

If a side that sits third is a side that we looked better against away from home, but we were guilty of not taking chances/silly mistakes- you address that (which we have…. to an extent…) so that next time we come against a playoff/promotion rival we learn and get what we deserve - which arguably we did against a Peterborough FWIW IMO Plymouth are a rival for a play-off spot - but not for the title. Happy for @green genie to offer a different angle seeing them every week. Edited September 18, 2022 by desperado Quote

radcliffe white Posted September 18, 2022 Posted September 18, 2022 Plymouth won’t finish in top 6 imo Quote

Must admit - a midfield without MJ away from home against a better team, might not be something we see on a regular basis. In his defence he was (and perhaps still is) searching for an MJ replacement and/or different midfield set-ups without him. He’s landed on Thomason since then and stuck with him. We might see if Thomason works without MJ soon Possibly Tuesday - good games to to experiment with. Quote

Individual errors can't be legislated for. Quote

There's already been a few team selections this season that have had certain people scratching their heads - yet we've gone on to win. Trust the manager. Quote

green genie Posted September 19, 2022 Posted September 19, 2022 Said after the game we were lucky to beat you and only time this season been second best. Think we'll be around 6-8th come the shake up, depending on injuries to key players and recalls for loanees Quote
gonzo Posted September 19, 2022 Posted September 19, 2022 Think a lot of folk look at other teams and think they are a shit and we havent hit top form but in reality its just division 3 football and all a bit pants anyway Quote
deane koontz Posted September 19, 2022 Posted September 19, 2022 Long live the Williams and Thomason partnership in midfield. Nice and solid. Quote
Whitesince63 Posted September 19, 2022 Posted September 19, 2022 Still early days yet but the leagues already starting to look as expected before it kicked off other than Charlton, MK and Oxford who were fancied. Barring injuries I don’t see any way we won’t be in the top 6 but unless our strikers start firing soon the top 2 may be beyond us. Quote
Dr Faustus Posted September 19, 2022 Posted September 19, 2022 I loved being back in for the game, thanks to the club for allowing me to be front and central Quote

That’s all you need to get ya head around. Please don’t ever compare the worth of MJ over Lee. Quote

Casino Posted September 19, 2022 Posted September 19, 2022 Fwiw, we lost at plymouth cos lee missed a sitter, bakayoko should have scored, santos and johnston fucked up and trafford didnt cover himself with glory when we were wide open A meltdown followed, despite the plymouth fan saying calm the fuck down Fitness permitting Lee starts most weeks Evatt is better at putting cones out, too Quote

Let’s hope he continues selecting correct player for the correct game. I’ll forgive him though he’s only human. Quote

Casino Posted September 19, 2022 Posted September 19, 2022 Maybe as well Lee missed the side footer from 8 yards Quote
