I am getting a feeling that we did better without Cantwell than with him results based? I know we have some stattos on here, am I completely wrong?

No, that would make that one person mentally deficient, someone who should be treated akin to a flat earther Unfortunately I have probably just described both Rudy & Pasha

Along with us.

The other reason for not scoring goals is that the strikers are crap.

So if one person thinks we should sell him, does it then become a dilemma ?

They will also spend a lot more money than Rovers in January

Two relegation places up for grabs with Wednesday already down. It's two from Pompey, Oxford and us. Still got to visit Oxford so I except them to close the gap. Pompey are pretty good at home we're hopeless. Final 10 fixtures for us are killers. We've wasted the "easy" fixtures in December and that will come back to bite us. Sadly I predict a finish in 23rd place

They all said the same thing, that it was an obvious choice & that there was no dilemma

I know it's famous last words to say a club is "too big" or "too good" to go down, but I really can't see Norwich being down there at the end of the season, I expect them to finish at least ten points higher than us. That run in from March to May which people keep posting is horrific. Inevitably we will pick up some points from those matches, but I think in general that run of games will be a disaster and might be what does for us. There is no firebreak fixtures during that run, they're all gonna be very difficult.

Plenty seemed to reply, can't be only in my head.

I think Gueye might be worth more injured than fit.

We had Baradji, I thought he'd maybe go off at half time, he looked leggy first half and he'd been booked. He came out to be our best player second half, taking us forward more often than not. He was definitely the one bright spot from today.

Only in your head..

Mcloughlin is error prone and dreadful at defensive headers. He was a poundshop replacement for Hyam who showed today what we've been missing.

I take all the negatives already been said and most here knew it would probably pan out this way given the er, new alignment. But a few other things:- Tronstad mom? Crikey. He has been fantastic for us in the past - Rev knows it really 😉 but today his body language said it all for me about where the club is at. Others too were at it –throwing arms, pointing, petulant fouls, huffing and puffing. Baradji I thought was our best player –kept the ball well, simple passes to keep game moving, did a lot of running, always showing for the ball, nearly scored. He needs a couple of good players around him to work with imo. Seems I'm in a minority here. Cantwell –agree show pony, a legend in his own head but seems to remember plenty around these parts suggesting that making him captain was an inspired move and how good he was. On this ‘Wrexham aren’t good we are poor’ argument. I thought Wrexham were very good at this level. Strong, quick, good movement. Their front 3 were excellent and worked really well as a unit. Sam Smith won every header and flick on and was strong, Ollie Rathbone as some have said was far more effective than Cantwell, O’Brien was quick and should have scored –they got the ball forward to him really well. Overall, a loss and poor performance. But it doesn’t matter does it – the budget has been slashed, agents are getting paid, Pasha is getting paid and league position isn’t a priority Rudy says.

All this assumes anyone might be interested in taking on Gueye (they weren't in the summer). And why would anyone be interested in DeNeve or Tavares (injured till March)? This stinking management won't let anyone join unless there is an equivalent leaver.

Mixed bag today. Portsmouth hammering is great. Reduces their GD significantly too which may be crucial. Oxford lost again which is also good. Unexpected point for Charlton which isn't ideal but the real kicker is Norwich winning. Puts them back in the mix to escape. Mind you would we have taken w good results, 1 meh and 1 poor one from our rivals before the game? Of course its a terrible strategy relying on others but that is what we are reduced to.

With Norway finally after 28 yrs qualifying for WC I bet Trondstad's perspective is this; I need to get to a different competitive club asap to increase my chances of getting picked. Sure there are four other players infront of him, but if injuries happen he has to be considered for selection. I'm not too sure about the story of his family wanting to move home to Norway. Perhaps moving away from rainy Lancashire or Manchester.

Resign and forfeit more than 2 years of compensation on his contract? No chance.

Hull moved McLoughlin on because they had ambitions to be better. They're now gunning for automatic promotion. We brought McLoughlin in because we have zero ambition and were just squad filling. We're three points off the drop.

Will likely score the winning goal for them on Sunday.

Not sure where the Dlamini runs in behind thing is from, he doesn't. From what I've seen off the 21s there should be a few ahead of him in the queue. Perhaps there not with the correct agency?

McLoughlin had another shocker today. That first goal with him and Pears, deary me. As said previously, Hull certainty had McLoughlin worked out when moving him over to left back, he's a disaster in the middle of a 3.

I felt for him today actually, not a lot went right for him, but he's trying harder than anyone. He's been getting criticised for losing the ball carrying it out, but he's the only one who actually tries to carry the ball out. There's a few getting a softer ride due to the amount they're playing, but he's played virtually every minute. If I'm picking an 11 for a relegation fight, he's one of the first on the team sheet.
