  2. We would be far better off looking for players from non league and L2/L1 than look for ex prem/championship players. Just look at Peterborough. Aaron McLean, George Boyd and Craig Mackail-Smith where all signed from non league football for peanuts and have all scored a shed load of goals for them in the promotion seasons.

  4. Only one of my group isn't renewing but i'm hassling a couple of mates who are thinking about renewing. If we get a positive investor in who looks like he's going to take the club forward then I don't think 10k ST sales is out of the question. If people renewed when they knew Lowe was going to be back in charge then I don't see any difference now we're playing at a slightly lower level. Just hope the ST prices are a bit more in line with the rest of the division, £250 would be great although around £300 is what I expect. However IF Rupert comes back I won't be renewing again.
  5. This is like a carbon copy of the United - Barca tie last season. Barca for all their pretty passing, flicks and triangles haven't troubled Cech at all. The only player to have performed well in that first half was Xavi, if Hiddink has any sense he'll move Essien in the centre and tell him to mark him. Abidal isn't getting forward much at all so I doubt they need him out on the right. Just hope there's a goal or 3 in the 2nd half.
  6. Find it hard to get excited about any of the current crop staying tbh. Can't wait for this season to come to and end.
  7. Ha, i'm definatly on the right team then!
  8. I imagine most people will be in Nottingham on Sunday anyway, would probably be up for playing the monday if people are about.
  9. He hasn't adapted at all. I mean fairplay he can pass a ball but that's literally all he can do and he doesn't do it at the end of the pitch where a pass can get you a goal. He looked good at the start of the season when we had proper wingers who he could launch the ball to and Gillett next to him doing all the running and tackling. To get the best or even a decent game out of Schneiderlin we basically need to build the whole midfield around him and he's no way near good enough to do that. Next season i'd rather see a Gillett/Wotton midfield partnership there's no point ****ing around with lightweights like Surman, Lallana or Schneiderlin in the middle against a League one side, they are far more physical and we'd just get destroyed in midfield. We need a strong physical spine to the team we won't get that with Morgan there.
  10. Please tell me you're joking? He's terrible.
  11. Keep Perry, Davis, James, Holmes and Gillett from the first team squad. Youngsyers like Mills, Paterson, Gobern, McLaggon etc can all stay as well. The likes of Surman, Saga, Skacel, Lallana, Morgan S, McGoldrick, Molyneux, Forecast, Pulis, Dyer, Rasiak, Euell, BWP and Wotton etc We need a frest start and somewhere build from get rid of all of those and spend the money on experienced L1/L2 players and build from there. Make Gillett or Perry Captain and just hope we can make some good transfers rather than bring in ****e like we done in the last close season. From that group of players we'd have a base of Davis James Perry Lancashire Mills Thomson Gillett Gobern Holmes McLaggon Paterson Not a great side at all but with the right sort of players bought in I think we could survive in league one with the points deduction, sadly I think next season the best we can hope for will be a mid table finish, anyone expecting anything more is going to be disappoined. Still it should be a 100x better than the ****e we've put up with this season.
  12. Why stop for the summer? surely we need some sort of football fix during the off season. I would've come down today but I was busy untill 6.
  13. Sad but true, we will be lucky to get rid of half of them for free.
  14. 10 match ban and well deserved imo.
  15. This is a great idea, i'll be donating a ticket tomorrow. Would much rather do this than chuck a few quid in a bucket.
  16. Something like: Davis © James Thomas Perry Mills Thomson Wotton Gillett Holmes Paterson McGoldrick Subs: Forecast, Lancashire, White, Gobern and McLaggon Dont think that's a terrible team really, with a couple of loans we could have a decent enough side with the right manager. If we did have any money available from sales a creative midfielder and a striker would be top priority. Would be quite happy to see Surman, Lallana, Bialkowski and Schneiderlin sold with BWP, Skacel and Euell released.
  17. Which team and in which position? IMO he's not strong enough to play in the centre of midfield, not quick enough to play on the wing and not strong enough to play right back. If all those flaws are exposed in the CCC then I don't see how he would get into a midtable premiership side. If he's very very lucky he will get bought by a promoted CCC side and even then he would look out of his depth. He's far too inconsistent to play in the premiership and midtable Championship is his level atm.
  18. I honestly couldn't care less. I've been very nervous before the last few games since Lowe left but after Sheffield and the points deduction this season is dead to me, I just want it to be August so we can start a fresh with the 10 point deduction. From start to finish this season has been a disaster and tomorrow will be no different imo, still i'll be there and at Forest...
  19. What's a CVA?
  20. None of the players are as good as they like to think, I won't be upset with any of them leaving in the summer just as long as we have a team at the start of the season. We've needed a mass clearout for a while now, unfortunatley whenever we release one crap player we sign two equally crap players to replace him. Hopefully this off-season will be different and we just buy players we need.
  21. Best day out was probably Charlton. Best game was easily Derby, really thought we would push on and be in and around the playoffs after that game. Didn't take long to realise it was just a one off though.
  22. Magilton would be a great choice, before Marcus Evans showed up with loads of cash he was doing really well with Ipswich bringing through all their youngsters.
  23. I've already got away socks, don't really need another pair but if you're just mass ordering 16 pairs I don't mind spending another £2.50. Really not bothered about squad numbers so i'll just take the lowest number available. Really looking forward to this now, have upped my training programme now so should be fully fit in 3 weeks time.
  24. Liquid Gaviscon > Gaviscon tablets.
  25. I find it hard to believe that people can still defend our players after 44 games with us second from bottom. They're **** and they can't handle any sort of pressure. It's obvious! James and McGoldrick have both improved a lot since Christmas but being our best player is hardly anything worth shouting about, we've been poor under Wotte but managed to grind out a few wins.
