Tony Daws on 23rd October on OWS:-
He then went on to provide a fitness update on the rest of the squad. He said: “We’re all okay. Jordan Hallam is obviously injured (hamstring) but working really hard to try and regain his fitness, and his ability to train on a regular basis without picking up an injury.”Remember his age, he’s streets ahead of any of ours of similar age on whom we seem to be building our future. If half a dozen of our own were that good there would be cause for some optimism.

A member of the gentry should not misuse an apostrophe!!!

I think he’s got the formation at 89 minutes with the score at 0-1. Dewhurst in front of Nuttall looking for an equaliser.
2 for the opposition is a fair shout.
Too many CMs of the wrong type.
By “wrong type” do you mean “not good enough”?
Blackpool in a straight swap for Apter?
Sorry – just woke up.Nuttall won’t go to anybody who saw him on Saturday!!

I don’t blame our caretaker boss, or even our players. They are piss poor, but they didn’t hire themselves.
I think some players have to accept blame as well as current and recent managers. For me the players fall into two categories.
1. Those that are simply not good enough, presumably they’re here because they’re cheap. We don’t have enough “good” players so some have to play, the managers job is to get them to be as good as they can be. Did Hill and does Daws?
2. Those that have shown clearly that they have the ability but, for some reason, choose to perform to that level only occasionally during a game and sometimes not at all. Why is something the fans will never know but somebody needs to find out and sort it quickly.2 users thanked author for this post.
As are:-
McSheffrey
Adkins
Alexander
Laws
Hill
and loads of others. Unless we can get somebody on a rolling monthly contract (unlikely unless desperate) then we’re stuck with what we have until the club is sold.
How likely is that? Ask Alcy!!He does a good job for the academy and that’s where he should be.
Can you justify that by listing the first team regulars he’s produced in the years he’s been in the job?

Yet another new low, another on Tuesday maybe. Astounding that a novice reporter can see things that our professional management team can’t. After listening to the whole game I still have no idea what system we were playing and neither, it seems, did the players. Embarrassing.
Any chance of a 4-4-2 do you think?
“the legion of potential buyers.”
You need to read all the words, not just pick one out
We are getting a new super duper one soon not funded by Swann of course
Hope we can take it with us to our phoenix club residence
No doubt a working scoreboard will push up the price for the legion of potential buyers.

As a Scunny fan, if you expect to be disappointed you’ll seldom be let down.

Some gems from TD post match:-
“I must say we didn’t turn up on the day,”
“We were second best and for the first time since I’ve been taking the team, we didn’t really look like scoring,”
“we just weren’t at the races.”
“We were too slow in possession of the ball,”
“we didn’t pass it quickly enough to try and shift the opposition,”
“going a goal down so early didn’t help.”
“It was disappointing coming from a set-play.”
“A couple lads switched off and we got done.”Very good Tony, any fan watching the game would have said exactly the same thing.
Tell us something we don’t know like WHY!!!!
Because if you don’t know why then you won’t be able to fix it will you?
It’s not the first time for many of those points is it?Interesting that, several months on, the youngsters that Hill used to “try” and keep us in the league are not exactly outstanding when playing several levels lower.
Anybody NOT see that coming?4 users thanked author for this post.
Well after reading the latest updates it looks like the “best” team we can field would be:-
Dewhurst
Rowe Taft/Young Nlthe
Ogle Beestin Whitehouse O’Malley
Lavery Nuttall Daniel
Bench – 5 youngstersShould have said that IMO Gallimore is better than Pugh.
Isn’t that Whitehouse’s game? No point playing Pugh as a ball winner, if he wins it he’ll just give it straight back.

No room for him or his like in this current system les. To get a DM in we’d have to lose one of the front 3.
I don’t think you’re reading my posts so I won’t bother you any more.

Unlikely, we’ve now got ourselves a team that needs to score 4 to win.
A 4-3 home defeat a high?
A 3-3 home draw against the third bottom team a high?
One point instead of 6.
We’ll have to agree to differ on what constitutes a high. You’re happy, I’m not. That’s football for you.I’m talking this season Cass, Solihull, Dorking and yesterday in particular.
OK, not very high highs then. More averages wouldn’t you say? Bits of yesterday were highish but, taken as a whole match, not for me.
I can pinpoint the lows but I’m struggling with the highs unless you’re going back a few years.

Lack of squad depth (highlighted frequently on Bru) was a major factor yesterday. Where were the game changers, or even game savers, on the bench? We were only missing Feeney, Daniel and Ogle from a realistic starting 11 which would just about give us a match day squad with no allowance for injuries or suspensions. No transfer window restrictions so LET’S HAVE SOME ACTION!!!!
Anything to add you two?
From NL news mick:-
