    I've only seen the lad via #RamsTV but I think he's ready if needed. I actually think Martin will play.
    MA think at this stage I could go with Whittaker up front with Sibley behind him . I know he's only been a bit part player and it's not come off for him yet ,but he is a decent player specially when he gets into his stride I've seen him score loads of goals . As for JHI still making my mind up about him certainly scores goals, Have to admire him for walking out at West Ham and moving up here just because he wants to play The little I've seen of him he seems a scorer of great goals more than a great goal scorer ,but I may be being harsh and Cocu knows a lot more than me

    Indeed, not happened for Whittaker yet at 1st XI level. He is, IMO, a little lightweight for the #9 role in the SBC and JHI is a better option.

    Lol, I'm referring to the fact they let us have the ball all day in our half so giving us 69% possession, nicked one early then were happy to let us play tippy tappy whilst waiting for the counter.

    Fair point, mac. Suppose the difference is...they’ve got the fourth best defence in the league and we...haven’t...in fact we’ve conceded the same number as third from bottom Boro’.

    P.S. Have you seen Brentford’s GD? They can do both. Seems unfair!

    Thanks for cheering me up rA.
    So they score more, concede less, we have several absentees, Wayne looks knackered, the midfield is lightweight, the defence wobbly, the goalie iffy, we are more and more reliant on kids, we don't have a fit striker, we cant cross a ball etc etc etc!!
    When does the cricket start......

    Good news...Wednesday! Bad news...weather forecast is rubbish. Good news...but it’s in Southampton so we might get away with it.

    Ah, the Rose Bowl. Nice ground, not been there but looks OK on telly.

    It does indeed Geoff. Makes you wonder if the EFL have satanic powers and, as soon as we looked like we might nick a top six spot, called on the Dark Side to stuff us so allowing them to carry any punishment from FFPgate over to next season!

    Paranoia, not a good thing!

    MA not sure he's lightweight plenty of cloggers in the U23 matches He likes the ball played in front of him to use his pace and he's a very good finisher Only chances he's had have been fleeting and out wide
