Kaminski won 14 from 28 (50%) and clean sheet % of 35.7% and save % of 71.2%

Pears won 6 from 18 (33%) and clean sheet % of 27.8% and save % of 67.2%

Prob worth adding Pears had a pretty settled back 4 in front of him throughout. Kaminski had Travis RB, Phillips CB, Hedges, LB, Mola LB all on occasion

Strange decision then to replace TK if that is the plan now that we have a fairly settled back 4

Pears played the last 20 games....do we have our record of those games compared to the previous ones with Kaminski as number 1.?

Kaminski is by far the better goalkeeper. The only thing I can't tell is whether we improved in our passing from the back with Pears, or whether we had just improved on it anyway and it was coincidental Pears was there at the time

I remember a couple of passes that Kaminski did which put the midfielder under pressure and we conceded. One to Travis sticks in my mind...think it was against PNE too!

But it would be a moment of madness if we sell Kaminski and replace him with Pears. Pears should be happy to be our #2. He's decent back up but you'd back Kaminski to make the big saves over him. Although Pears has surprised me and if anything I'd be looking to get a couple of hundred thousand for him whilst his stock is relatively high and move on

I'd send him out on loan and then bring him back as potentially number 1 when Kaminski goes.

The 1st goal conceded vs Norwich where he basically stood on his line is a prime example of this.

Absolutely,  plus his head went v Milwall under pressure.  Sell Pears, Tommy as number 1

I will put my 23/4 bid in.

If we keep the GB/JDT combination we will get automatic promotion. 

Are we sticking JDT up front?

Anyway, JDT was justified in his selections by Leonard's lack of penetrative ability against a superior defence this evening. 

Bit of a shame, the lad has been very good at this level all season and in seasons gone against Cat 1s.  We are at that time of year, these lads will be thinking about the beach now and ibiza etc..  A lot of academies have closed already.

Ha, just noticed Beckham on the bench for Brentford....anyone know if he got on?

Yes and that's why you try to help them by trying to play to their strengths and play others around them that can cover for areas of weakness. Playing Travis alongside Wharton or Buckley isn't/hasn't helped either of them and will continue to hamper any progress they could make. Do you think Carter & S.Wharton CB partnership is good enough to start as first choice CB's next season? I don't! For the same reason why any combination of Travis, Buckley, A.Wharton is not acceptable to start in the engine room of midfield regularly next season

Not sure how old he is but Oliver Norwood would probably  be available...that type to let AW play

Ah, he's 32

All I can say is look at mk dons last year to this year, I'm afraid that is the future, I hope to god I'm wrong 

Thats the worry....not played Well or won in 9 games, Brereton decides to have a decent half hour and we win...what else have we got? Feck  all

Click bait K-Hod….

Anyone calling for this managers head after what he’s achieved this season is on the wind-up. 

Give it a rest , Gav.  The guy should be questioned after the last 3 months.

How is knowing you have to win not a pressure situation?

@RTM08 said it....and I think you know what I'm saying....

To be fair, we started terribly when the pressure was on, we only played when it was off....and to say the players don't know the score is bollox

As far as he will know though, there's pressure today. They won't know the other scores.

There was no pressure on today.  We had to win and hope

Where has this bbd been 

He's great when no pressure.  Same as us really.  Put an iota of pressure on and they all collapse.

Sunderland.  Feck me. Their first season up. They've done something we have never done. It's time to screw this journey bullshit.  And go for broke next season 

All about the quality of the loans in my opinion 

I need a Bradshaw goal for a few quid

Just now, simongarnerisgod said:

yeah right

I know but their loans are very good

Sunderland going up I think...goals from everywhere at the moment.

Come on

Just now, Exiled_Rover said:

Well that's a soft yellow card in their third if he makes that challenge (and then completely neuters him for the rest of the match) - I'm not Travis' biggest fan, but that goal isn't on him. 

Chickening out of a challenge in the crucial final game is on him though.....as someone said, a sackable offence.

Just now, Mashed Potatoes said:

He's got a track record of injuries.

Players get stale at clubs, I sense thus happened at boro.  Always been  a quality player.  Looks fit enough to me.

Watmore always plays well against us, Iv said we should have signed him for many seasons before this 

Absolutely,  I said we should have bought him when boro were getting rid.....few in here like Chaddy said he was shit 

Just now, Tom said:

I don’t care if Pears shouts for it; if he’s not in a ridiculous position that goal doesn’t happen 

 

Ye, if he doesn't come sprinting out Pickering nods it back to him.

He did a similar thing v Norwich and I got some stick of @Gav....terrible keeper.

Just now, simongarnerisgod said:

in his defence,he`s limited to who he can pick

Don't care, he can't set a defence up or have a coherent plan.  We need better than this mon

JDT has to go.  He hasn't got the man management to be able to get us promoted.

Plus he picks terrible players every week.

Poor all round
