    Lembikisa, Peltier, Onyedinma when fit again, Bring Kioso back, Bring Bola back into the fold in January if need be. Even Odoffin or Lindsay if we had to. None are Brilliant options at Championship level but they'd all be chosen in that position before McGuckin.

    My club is in massive trouble.
    "Massive trouble".Really ?
    We`re less than half way through a championship season,facing a possible relegation,not much of a surprise is it really.
    Just for once IBS,tell the truth,you like nothing better than sh*t stirring in the hope of getting some attention.
    Why not say...."Good luck Mr Richardson,we`re all behind you in this very difficult task".

    Now hold on Brin, I didn't sat there was a takeover. I was just asking the question.

    Been told there is some very positive news due from RUFC soon and that is all I have got.

    This has to be one of the followinh

    A new DoF

    Guest and Chrimes issue.

    Units around ground being claimed

    Takeover

    Potential investor/ sponsorship


    Can't think of anything else it could be?

    It is the parent who identifies and acknowledges shortcomings, whilst also understanding that a pivotal part of motivating someone / a group of individuals is to also highlight positive aspects.That could be tangible skills, behaviour or character traits.

    Whilst I suspect you know this and are merely seeking to bait individuals (the steadfast commitment to posting almost exclusively when things are negative re the club is damning. Overwhelmingly damning in your case. Where the f**k are you when things goes well? Genuinely, you are nobody to be seen. That says it all.)

    It isn't this whole black and white tell them they're sh!t or tell them they're amazing as you try and suggest. It is realising the only way to motivate a set of people over a long period is to actually recognise strengths and build upon them. Occasionally you will get a reaction from simply saying 'you're being sh1t today, sort it out'. But it will never be a long term recipe for success. Especially with a group of individuals.

    Without the players believing they are capable, their footballing ability is somewhat irrelevant.

    We are in massive trouble this season, much of our own making. Incorrect decisions aplenty, it happens. Overall we are really not in that bad a place, perspective taking wouldn't go amiss. We will come again. And when we do we won't be world beaters, just like we aren't the worst set of players to ever play the game right now. Ups and downs, ride the wave.

    UTM.

    So which game would you like McGuckin to make his debut in as our new RWB? Leicester away perhaps? You think that'll work do you? A 20 year old midfielder with practically no first team experience, never mind as a RWB, but you want to give him a try because he looked a mobile player in pre-season?

    Jesus christ.

    Impressed me in the friendly's looked more than a youth player too me. Last 2 games we lost before we started especially wide right no impact from there & only playing one up front.
