Apparently not after all. Now 1-2

Grimsby down to 10 men as well

Tadic has another groan injury.

Would confuse the **** out of the Northam. Two Ronald Koemans theres only two Ronald Koemans

Elia and Djuricic were not brought in during the summer, they were brought in in Janauray when it became clear to the club how shallow our squad depth really was given the longer than expected absence of J-Rod and the similarly long absence of Gallagher. Long, Tadic and Mane replaced Lallana, Guly, J-Rod and Gallagher. I have seen nothing as yet to suggest that Djuricic or even Elia have contributed anything significantly more than Guly. Wile I agree that the 1st XI improved over last year it is a nonsense to say that the squad depth improved to any significant degree.

Jose is in the video. But not Morgan. Tadic could be there, hard to tell he does have a tendency to disappear.

Not sure about that. He won't be playing for us f'sure, but the story was that he wanted to get back to Legia Warsaw/Poland. If Boscombe can persuade him to stay then that will be a great move for them.

We were absolutely diabolical for the first 30 minutes or so when our first went in completely against the run of play. After that we did play quite well :-) Let's hope the Og bloke scores a few for us again.

True, but you can't blame Brenda for that one. Carroll signed for Liverpool months before Brenda rolled up.

Anyone who buys a 50/50 scarf whoever is involved deserves a slapping, not just if its Boscombe.

His spiritual home is Torquay, he will team up with Mike Williamson to help them return to the Football League.

True, think poor would be an exaggeration by any other criteria. I suppose one shot on target does give some cause for.optimism.

Well done Boscombe

Can't relax at 1-0, not when they're up against Emile.

5 appearances, 0 goals, 0 assists, 1 shot (that admittedly was on target), 4 fouls, 1 yellow card. Think that can safely be summed up as poor, being generous. [stats according to the OS]

is he moving to Swindon?

Of course we should try to sign Toby, whether it will happen remains to be seen, but thats a no brainer. As for the other two, neither have shown anything that would warrant taking them permanently, whatever the price. Better off getting Gaston back than having either of them next season.

Great, just think we can probably register Jos as well for our run in. Would be ideal for the Citeh game.

Very good. When will it be translated into Strine?

Until that point I think he was man of the match. I still don't think it was really all of his fault, it resulted from a ridiculous back heel from Pelle when he should have held on to possession, and Bertrand and K Davis are equally culpable. But good to see Maya manning up.

So he told you as well then?

Come on though, I am one of his biggest supporters, but those two "attempts" in the second half today were absolutely shocking. Like Pelle until recently he has completely lost his confidence in front of goal, needs to get one off his arse or something. Other than that he was OK today, nothing brilliant but not the shocker that some would have you believe. Should have had 3 assists last week if Tadic could shoot and if Morgan hadn't got in the way of Fonte's header. He also didn't cost us the win today, we went 2-1 up after both of his cock ups, we didn't win today because of our lack of top class keeper. Will be good to see Vic back next game, much as I rate Toby, he was very average in MF today, his clearances and passes were way below his usual standard. Mane is getting some stick for some dives, sure he did make a meal of two or three challenges, but the dickhead of a ref didn't think they were worth a booking, and some of the challenges on him by Spuds players were frankly shocking. Moss got it so wrong just before our first goal, but fortunately it worked out well for us. Great work by Long for the cross for Pelle's second. Great to see Pelle picking up his brace today, though have to say the rest of his game was not very good, and his casual back heel in the first half led indirectly to their goal. On the whole though it was good to see us attacking today, with some flair, back to how we were early in the season, after some turgid performances since we beat the Gooners.

So Liverpool it is then.

We'd probably be docked points for playing too many subs as well :-)

Excellent news. The boy is very lucky if this is the case. Still believe it when I see it.
