  1. Yes, I think you’re right. The players. that Darren Moore took us out of League One with several seasons ago were, on the whole, better than the current crop
  2. Not sure that there’s a lack of commitment from the current squad, but we need to start building for next season. We will need younger, faster, more energetic and fitter players than we currently have if we’re going to make any impact at all in League One next season
  3. His pace enables him to recover his own mistakes sometimes - but. when he loses that pace, his days as a footballer are numbered, even at League One level. The fact that he’s still a first choice is a direct result of the Chansiri legacy - ideally he would have been moved on at the end of last season
  4. There’s no pace or attacking threat from us at all - can’t see us scoring
  5. Fusire needs taking off - I can see a red card coming in the second half otherwise. His ball control is poor
  6. There’s a good reason why they’re in the bottom three, but, having said that, I’ll still be happy with a. draw on Sunday, given our dreadful home form
  7. Yes, but we’re only playing the same number of games as the other sides in the division. Pederson needs to manage the game time of the senior players better and not be afraid to rest players when necessary - eg second half today, when we were never going to pull back a two goal deficit.
  8. Yes, but HP isn’t helping by not using subs more
  9. OK, I think we’ve got the message ! I think that Windass goal against Derby beats both of them
  10. The problem is that, we have a weak squad and there aren’t many youngsters pushing for a starting place. Its going to be more difficult still as the season wears on and injuries and suspensions start to kick in.
  11. Yes, I remember that - because he was dressed in green ( and thus promoting Macmillan Cancer Support ) some Scottish dickheads mistakenly assumed he was a Celtic supporter !
  12. I do hope the new owners, whoever they turn out to be, prioritise putting a proper management structure in place - for example, appointing an experienced Director of Football, Finance Director, CEO etc rather than just splashing out money with no long term vision or plan. This is where DC failed abysmally - we must hope the new owners are much more savvy and clued up than he was.
  13. He knows the players strengths and weaknesses, so, in the short term at least, it’s a no brainer for me that he stays
  14. Yes, relegation is inevitable, but I really expected we’d be much better than this today- given the lift that DC going has given everyone.
  15. It would be good for those fans who boycotted Wednesday night to now be given their ooportunity to show their respect for Milan.
  16. Aren’t they obliged to sell to the highest bidder - to get the best deal possible for creditors ?
  17. The fact that the “official” attendance -including all absent season ticket holders, is given at around 21,000,shows how successful the boycott was, given that only around 7k actually physically attended the game. Great stuff -more of the same please on Saturday - physical attendance may dip below 5k as Oxford won’t bring nearly as many as Boro did.
  18. Surprised any of them are still here at all to be honest - after all, like the rest of us, they’ve got bills to pay and, presumably, mouths to feed. Would YOU work for a company if you were consistently either getting paid late or not at all.
  19. Just stay away again - that’s the obvious choice
  20. Svante is working hard, as is Fusire, but the difference in quality between the two sides is plain to see
  21. Didn’t Arsenal have to make another early substitution as well, I seem to recall ?
  22. Middlesborough have sold their allocation in full so, sadly, I think the attendance will be nearer 12,000
  23. Exactly, I know that things are difficult at the moment, but if we’re not prepared to see what Stretch can do in these circumstances, he really shouldn’t be even on the bench
