Two in have to be a striker and a more creative wide player to cover the loss of Roberts and Smith. In a more ideal world we could do with a CM player too.
I wonder who the 3 are moving on, I just hope it isn’t Pugh after the form he’s showed at Hereford.
Rance to be paid up
Shrimpton out
Beestin out on loan to get game timeMerely speculating with those suggestions.

I feel sorry for Pugh who’s been called back from his loan. Pugh was in top form for Hereford, knitting the play together, getting forward and scoring some good goals and yet he’s hardly played. What makes it all the more strange is the fact he’s just what we need right now and yet doesn’t get a look in.
Beestin get’s more of a look in and he’s not even match fit. The form Pugh was in was miles above both Clunan and Scales. I honestly don’t understand it.
Dean’s going on about more players being brought in, but it’s showed he doesn’t use an inform CM player even though we’re struggling, so who’s to say he’s going to correctly utilize any more players ?

Play 442 and be positive for a change we’d more than likely win but this 433 without Roberts supplying the lone frontman Whitehall, Curzon will win.
SUFC 0 – CURZON 1
I can’t say I’m surprised as it’s all very predictable. I know Whitehall missed the header he should have really scored, but to take him off for Beestin instead of going two up top is ridiculous.
What was Dean playing at ?
CMC I guess you haven’t seen my posts the last few weeks concerning Dean, if you had read them then you wouldn’t be expecting me to back him. I predicated a 0-1 loss to Curzon and have questioned Dean’s tactics or lack thereof for quite a while.
I like him as a person, but he’s just not good enough.

Enough debt is to be cleared for the embargo to be lifted to enable us to hopefully sign a few players towards the end of the season. Michelle and the other staff have worked absolute wonders in clearing a large amount of the debts.
One thing is for certain, at least we’ve got a competent owner for the 1st time since Wharton. I’m surprised they’ve got through the amount of debt they have in so little time.
I understand further cuts have to be made to enable us to be sustainable, but what they’ve done up to press with the debt is outstanding. I was fully expecting it to take us a few seasons to get out of the embargo.
Well done to Michelle and the other staff.
Outstanding effort.

I tend to agree which is the sad part of it all. Upside is we’ll have Roberts and Law back but even then it’s far too negative.

Should have been out of sight before the late substitutions. But for the ref and the lack of a proper goal scorer.
Elliot has been and still is a goal scorer at this level, but has never been properly utilized. Stick Elliot upfront with Whitehall and he’d net regularly.
I find it non the least surprising that we’ve changed up to 2 upfront twice and he’s scored shortly after on both occasions. That isn’t a coincidence it just goes to prove what we’ve all said numerous times before, Elliot isn’t a wide player or lone striker.

Any positive manager would have seen studied Blyth and compared them to our players and gone for it with 2 up top, but no Dean is Mr Conservative.
I’m telling you now, if we started with 442 nice and bright and popped the ball off to the wingers and had them get balls in the box with Elliot running in behind, there isn’t much Blyth would have been able to do about it. Blyth are poor.
That’s the title hopes gone. Play offs it is now.
Blyth were shite and there was no reason not to start with a 442 formation from the off. Twice now we’ve switched to two strikers and twice Elliot has scored shortly after….coincidence ?
As we’ve all said before Elliot if played with Whitehall would be on 20+ by now.
Anyway, back to the game. What was Dean thinking consolidating against Blyth and shutting up shop ?. In my opinion we should have kept going forward, not back !
Wilson and Fitzy both messing up but even then we should have been out of sight. Too negative again from Dean and I would have kept Pugh on and subbed Clunan personally.
