He may never get over this.

Unbelievable. Pears just unbelievable

Pears has totally fallen apart.

Davenport has to be watching Johnson continuously give the ball away wondering what it takes to get in the side

Give Diaz the hook, bring Butterworth in.

Pears…ugh, that’s not good

Travis really should have put us one up 2 min in. With that much space it should have been easy to put that ball on goal from 35 out.

At least he won’t be forced into a wide position for a while.

A week ago he tried to square it when he should have shot now he shoots when it should have been played square

Lenihan getting his knee looked at. Worst case would be picking up injuries here.

Agreed, but we should keep all 3 out of contract players, Dack is cover.

For me we bring in Zeefuik, with Dack returning and Ayala we have cover for the 3 out of contract players. We keep them all to summer and let them walk if they want. If the contracts affect their play we have quality alternatives.

I’d rather go see Brands garden than sell Rothwell for a million quid.

I see at least 3 penalties conceded based on championship officiating standards in the high light reel. Reply shows no foul however.

Do we want them to pay more attention? They seem to be best suited to writing checks.

Unless they blow out a knee in 2 weeks and can’t get sold or the same contract their agent says the can get know

He should have tried bring one or two in then…”defenders are coming”

How good he was. How good he is, I hope is the same, but 2 acl in 18 months is a lot to overcome. He, not the club, should expect much this campaign. I hope we have a problem with him and Buckley having to compete…but for now I’ll take an experienced, difference maker off the bench.

Of all the first team players to sign to a long term extension, Gally would probably be bottom of the list, next to Johnson, and Davenport.

I’d enjoy the luxury of bringing Dack back slowly. Come in as a second half sub as Bucko works so hard he gets gassed by the end of each half. Dack hasn’t been fully fit in years and we’re not sure his form or ability will be what it was. His role should be a super sub this year and a full return to playing fitness.

Tend to agree. Dack has been in the mend for a better part of the last 30 months. Like him having little pressure and the ability to come off the bench to add a spark or replace Buckley when he winds down.

By those (low) standards we’d be out of officials by the end of January

What concerns me the most is the optimism.

Butterworth a much better attacking option than Gally, imo. Gally is the superior defensive center winger however.

Also a side Dack could slide into. Could step in for Rothwell or Buckley…AA and Dack never got sorted.
