Yes it would make absolute sense to sell him for 2M.
We are almost overstocked with attacking players. We have Jatta who has been very promising and you would expect to be even better when...
Well said Jackal and Slack.
Dont follow Scotland but Jack's old mate Callum McGregor was a regular in the Scotland squad, so might be there?
He only did it once but he was more comfortable getting close to opposition to block crosses than anyone else I've seen who's played in that position.
Unless I'm imagining it he got far enough...
Sorry to derail the thread slightly but last Saturday was the first time I've seen Mahovo. Only on for a short time but looked a good size, quick and looked to have good instincts.
As somebody pointed out the other day, in recent times our defenders haven't done THAT much which is really out of the ordinary for a defender - they generally pass it carefully along the back line...
Maynard would surely want players who do things correctly. Is there something you know that I don't?
That one looked bad but played quite well.
No doubt they didnt come cheap.
I do wonder though what the data says about our style of play being the best way to get value from a given playing budget, as it seems like you need to be in a...
I have a feeling he is the defensive midfielder. We should take account of his age but having dropped down from Celtic (?) to League 1, then League 1 to League 2 because he wasn't happy with playing...
Problem is it will be called being brave. If it doesn't work you chalk it down to bad luck then try it again, ad infinitum.
The refusal to try anything different late on yesterday was particularly...
I don't recall 'blaming the pitch'. Just pointing out it was crap and that detracted from an already poor match.
Think that's already full, this was for the bonus features!
Fair points. He is a promising young player but needs to start coming through with match winning performances, or at the very least cut out the errors.
Most annoying things for me were:
Our OCD, paint by numbers style of football. We appear to have very little football intelligence and creativity when plan A isn't working.
Forest Green's...
Thought this might be an entertaining basketball style match seeing as there's nothing riding on it, but it looks like Cotterill has sent them out to get a clean sheet.
Trying to play through...
Wasn't he injured? I suppose if there's any doubt about his fitness at all they're not going to risk him for end of season matches.
Interested to see how our angry Scottish midfield gets on. A...
FGR 2 Notts 5
(Macca 3 Jatta 2)
Maybe I'm being thick here, but what's the margin in the cases where it's not clear? It still ends up with VAR drawing lines on a freeze frame to see if the lino made a mistake, doesn't it?
I don't see how the daylight rule would change anything. There would still be marginal decisions where someone is off by 1mm.
Offside is a great example of VAR working well MO. It doesn't matter if it's a toenail or 5 yards, if it's off it's off.
Unusual behaviour by Forest, but there looked be at least one probably two penalties there.
If there was a Luton fan on the VAR that's a pretty stupid and avoidable way to create controversy.
He was never really fast, and yes it's normal not to be sharp after so long out, but yes he was a yard slower than the rest of our team. Even Jatta is a quick player despite being so big.
Hope we...
If you had asked me in October I would've said thanks Jim and good luck. Now I feel like he's still got something to offer both on the pitch and in terms of setting the right example off it. I would...
