Kaminski Carter Hyam Wharton Brittain Pickering Morton Trav Hedges Szmodics Diaz Gally Give big Daniel a rest, I’d like to see Gally get a rare outing down the middle, don’t feel comfortable with Dolan in the false 9 away from home like he was at Cardiff, we’re a better side than Wigan but we can’t let them boss us physically as that’s the only way they’ll beat us. COYB

You’ve done it now Mark!! Are you forgetting our record at the DW?! I’ve seen us win once there in about 123633828 visits 😂

Do I agree with JDT potentially leaving Dack out the squad tomorrow and him going to play for the 21s? Not particularly no and I don’t think Dack is going to like it one bit, part of me does respect JDT for doing it though. If we don’t get 3 points tomorrow it will be an easy stick to beat him with and I respect him for having the balls to take a risk like that, doesn’t seem like these lads are getting an easy ride anymore like they have for the last few years, if you’re not in the squad you’re playing for the U23s and if you don’t like it then cya 👍🏻

The January transfer window will help as well, we’re fine at centre back and right back and obviously goal keeper, Hedges and Diaz on the wings is also fine. The rest of the team could easily be improved, another centre mid, left back and striker would do the trick for me 👍🏻

Last season Fulham were a class above but this season there’s literally not one stand-out side. League full of bang average sides as the gulf between the Champ and the Prem just continues to grow. It’s anyone’s this season, we can get in that top six IF we add another 2/3 in Jan.

I must say I’ve never really had those thoughts about Travis myself, but last night he had an absolute shocker. Probably our worst player on the pitch. Hopefully it was just a one off, when he’s on it I still think he’s our best central midfielder. Not that there’s much competition in there, Buckley has gone off the boil and Morton is alright.

From what I saw it seemed to briefly show Dack speak to Trav before the pen, from what I saw it seemed like a “I don’t want it”. Shame if so, Dacky must be so low on confidence, if the goal stood it would have done him the world of good. All that being said Jesus we didn’t deserve anything from that game, a better side would have put us to the sword comfortably and by 4 or 5. We just invited them on to us all night, Ayala is a class defender but playing out from the back is just not his game at all. The top end of the pitch, what is there to say? Lifeless all night on the few occasions we were up the top end of the pitch. Awful awful performance, fingers crossed we can beat Rotherham on Saturday because it’s Wigan away after that and we NEVER get a result there.

I think if Cooper leaves Forest Dyche could end up taking over there, he lives in the area and started his football career off at Forest under Cloughy. He could go in there and keep them up I think.

Well with this seasons pattern of winning one and losing one then winning one and losing one (and so on) that means we should be winning on Saturday, I fancy us as well. 2-0 Rovers

He named them when he first took over, I’ll try and find it. “The first-team, athletic performance, medical, recruitment, analysis, and the Academy and my job is to sit at the centre of that and to ensure that it’s working smoothly at the same point.“

Without reading the rest of this thread I’ll throw a few players out there and if just one person reads it and has genuinely forgot this player ever played for us or even existed then I’ll have done my job. 😂 Herold Goulon, Vince Grella, Maceo Rigters, Franny Jeffers, Radosav Petrovic, Fabio Nunes, Bruno Ribiero, Javier De Pedro, Jemal Johnson, Hakan Unsal They are just off the top of my head. 👍🏻

Think when BBD goes we’ll definitely need to bring in another left sided attacker and another out and out striker, depending on how Hirst gets on 🙂

Ghosts 😂

Wouldn’t be against that if I’m honest.

I’d go TK Carter Wharton Ayala Hyam Edun/HP Trav Wharton Dolan Hirst BB

Jesus that’s worrying, those wing backs are going to get destroyed.

Massive error not getting a backup right back to Brittain, Sarr and Pedro will have a field day against Carter at Right Back, I like Carter but he’s a centre back not a right back. I’d take a draw 😃

With no Right Back and at a ground where we always get beat, I’d take a point now.

The thing with Dolan is that he seems to play his best football when coming off the bench. There have always been question marks about his final product but his performance on Saturday was really promising, he probably does deserve to start against Wigan based on that but I wouldn’t be annoyed if he started the game on the bench.

Whenever Bowler was 1v1 against Pickering he usually ended up being able to get a cross in, it was a good job we doubled and tripled up on him. I don’t want to be to harsh on Pickering because he’s just not good enough and that’s not his fault, Wednesday was one of his better games for us though.

I’m dreading that trip to the Stadium Of Light on Boxing Day, the Smug Ghost of Christmas Past ruining the festive period for us all.

Would have liked another attacking option but as a whole it’s not a bad window, it’s a start. 7/10.

They had a huge sell on, the sell on for Diaz is nowhere near the sell on Newcastle had for Arma.

This is surely a first for you on here pal? No wonder you’ve dug it up so quickly 😉

There’s no such thing as loyalty in football mate, especially not these days. You can’t knock the lad though, all the supposed interest and he’s still knuckling down and playing his football with a smile on his face. He owes us nothing.
