I think that’s right, Hill seems to like an enforcer up front and, although he’s got the build, Loft can’t (or won’t) do the job. Unless his agent is a miracle worker I can’t see an upward move which he seems to think he’s worth judging by his recent performances.
Straight swap for Johnson Clarke Harris?
You’re safe.

They had 3 CBs to look after Rondon who’s merely a highly paid Loft. Not sure Everton would have scored against The Iron!!

Lucky you.
With players getting fitter and better game on game, you have to wonder, what the feck was going on under Neil Cox?
He’s a nice man remember, too nice to the players maybe? If so, they certainly didn’t reward him for that did they. Too much carrot, not enough stick, sounds like Keith might have a different approach.

Absent!! Injured or cantbearseditis?
Say, we are cruising along at 3 – 0
Now les, there’s optimism but it surely has its limits. (I presume you’ve had a couple?)

Agree, difficult to introduce youngsters into a shambolic team. When/if enough of the regulars gain some confidence by winning a few games there could be an opportunity.

Good player, oh for one like him now to shore up this defence.

Shocking display IMO, biggest robbery since Brinksmat! Massive hole between the 2 CBs all game, Taft, Thompson, Kenyon, Pugh, Loft & Jarvis terrible,
I must have been watching the wrong game, I see that Pugh & Jarvis are on the MOM shortlist. Shows how easy it is to win when you play for The Iron.
LOft can’t be expecting to move anywhere upwards, have a moneybags NL team identified him as the man to fire them into the EFL or does he have an exceptional agent?

Shocking display IMO, biggest robbery since Brinksmat! Massive hole between the 2 CBs all game, Taft, Thompson, Kenyon, Pugh, Loft & Jarvis terrible, the rest slightly better except the ‘keeper who was excellent (bizarrely he could have been MOM in a team that lost 6-1!!) Loft & Jarvis were so bad that O’Neil & KDT could start on Saturday and couldn’t be worse (could they?) There were a few bright spots when we actually passed the ball accurately and looked like a football TEAM but there needs to be much more of that if we’re to survive.
But hoofing it forward will only work if you have players able to win a decent amount of those hoofs and stop the ball coming straight back. We don’t have any forwards capable of winning more than about 1 in 20.

Don’t understand why any of the loan players are stating
Wilson, Pugh and Jessop would put in much more effort.Jessop not exactly blowing them away at Trinity. I suspect the fitness issue might be a factor, Cox hasn’t done them any favours has he?

Calling Loft a striker is an insult to other strikers.
Terrible today, extremely lightweight for a big guy. Sadly there is no alternative at present. ( Please don’t suggest Jarvis!!)

Entered mine OK yesterday, now seem to have vanished.
JIC:-
BR/Tr – 1-1
NC/Sw – 2-1
B/CT – 2-0
H/S – 3-1
M/Sc – 2-1No contest!!!!!
Unless things start to change it would be easy enough. Plenty of games where only one of the numbers needed any work.

To be fair there’s nowt else to bank on really!
No progress on the ground improvements?

Presumably the matchday programme is intended to be a money maker. If too few supporters buy a programme then it becomes a loss maker. The conclusion at the club is therefore, in common with most other things, that once again “it’s the supporters fault.”

Yet they were reported as “having trained well” every week!! Does that mean they turned up on time, ate all their dinner, washed their kit and ended the session with the same number of balls they started with?

Potentially the end of the friendship?

I liked the interview from the manager but wish Mike White had asked him about his subs.
Millen on in midfield ahead of Beestin & Pugh was baffling.An incredible Cox-like substitution, baffling indeed.
as for Jarvis he clearly needs more time
He certainly needs plenty of time to score a goal, refuses to be rushed. Why didn’t he just HEAD IT!!!!!!!! He’s missed 3 from inside the 6 yard box in 2 games that have cost us valuable points. IF there’s improvement in him he needs to find it quickly.
Thought Hackney played well before tiring but had 2 decent chances to hit the target and didn’t. Based on last week and this – how close does Jarvis have to be to score? Reckon Beestin would have scored both todays chances.

I’m not disputing it, I’m just puzzled that such an apparently low figure can rate so highly. Maybe a lot of solo goals that season?
That sounds very suspicious, just less than 1 assist every 2 games hardly seems like a major contribution to the team.
Be interesting to see how we line up. No Davis limits the opportunity for 3 at the back; Despite Cox’s thoughts, Rowe is not a centre back.
Watson
Rowe
Onarisie
Taft
O’MalleyPugh
beestin
Perry/HackneyLoft
Jarvis
ScrimshawPerry & Hackney, no Jarvis for me.

There was no excuse not signing him on a long term contract and loaning him out. I don’t give a crap what anybody else says, we should have gone down that route.We did!! Over 4 years he had 5 NL loans before Notts County. 46 appearances and 5 goals, tells its own story surely.
