Unless and until we start to score goals it's goodbye League 2, hello NL. Give Devitt more playing time and no more wasted high hoof balls to James for crying out loud! We are depending on Quigley alone to score and that's what he thinks too!
Said at the start of the season, have kept repeating it all the way through and get slated every time I say it but.........I like Luke James as a grafter, and at the moment until we’ve seen the new striker for any length of time (but the fact he can’t get picked for more than ten minutes isn’t a good sign) he’s the only option we have but he just isn’t a good enough striker to score the goals or create the assists we need. That’s a fact

You've just got to go for it in the position we are in. We looked more threatening under bloody Dunn.

Dixon
Jones Davies Thomas
Barry/Eardley Taylor Banks Kay
Devitt
Quigley Ndjoli
Popular side since '03.

That must be the first time I've seen a team who need to win play for over an hour with 9 defensive players on the pitch.
Did you miss our last few games.
I said the same on Saturday and got slated by happy clippers. Where are they tonight !

I think Chris Taylor and Devitt need to play in midfield and we need some wing play - Kay on the left and probably Barry on the right.

Wonder what Ndjoli thinks about being in a side that's desperate for goals and being brought on in the 89th minute ? I would start him saturday along with Goodridge and Devitt, weve got to start creating something, it's all too negative.

The definition of madness - doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result

Need to find our best team quickly

Good shout.
We have to try something different and shake it up a bit.

Have we seen anything of Ndjoli to suggest that he is any good? He looks lightweight.

I would hope that a guy that's spent time at Bournmouth has something about him at this level

Problem is that we’ve hardly seen him at all yet
