Been more of an attacking threat in this game than Gilliead has been all season.

 

Looks like a player we could do with...oh hang on he was

 

Crankshaw

It’s ok. Sparks has his boots ready.

What a stupid decision to sell him when can’t score.

Shows that we have no money.

 

Good link Dave, cheers for sharing. Good to know I’m not the only one that’s used it to good effect. Keep on chipping away!

 

It was completely Adams decision to sell him. He didn’t rate him.

 

Did Cranky really do it for us though? I did like him but feel he’s another in a long list of players built up to be better than he actually was when he was sat on the bench.

as an aside, Quigley was a handful at Barrow last season. Shows the money in the Conference now for him to drop down and go there.

you wouldnt wanna be fighting to come up from there, Christ.

 

That Stockport-Bolton game was class, Stockport's hilarious defending at the beginning of the game put them bang in trouble but guess what got them back in it?

That's right, GOALS.

And guess who scored the last one, that's right, a former Bantam...

Couldn't make it up!

 

He said at the time the funds would be used to strengthen squad. Was that Theo and Lavery or was it saved for Jan?

 

It was well after we signed Theo and Lavery.

Even if the pot was completely empty after we brought them in, the Crankshaw money (which I believe @wetherbywhaler said was substantial) will definitely be available in January from what Sparks has said. That's money we've generated as a club.

 

The stat might be accurate to the rules of xG but I watch us every week, that defence will struggle to get you promoted.

 

Gambling is a risk no matter what tools you use.
Endorsing it with success stories can cause more harm then good where people who can’t afford to lose go chasing those same successes.

Bet you're a right laugh at parties.

 

Me too. If you are talking about the defence that has held its own against Port Vale, Exeter (ET excepted) and FGR recently, we’ve not embarrassed ourselves.
The 2 CS in 17 or whatever it is sounds bad but forget the cup games imo. Since Canavan came back in we’re fine at the back. Always gonna get a few blunders at this level aren’t you.

ridehalgh has been POY for me - again his injury was no help either.

 

Yeah, especially when i turn up in my Lamborghini paid for by crypto currency. Lol

who needs xG algorithms?

 

A very fair statement.

 

Apart from Orient and Exeter last night, our results with the skipper playing have been solid

 

Canavan does make a difference and Ridehalgh is consistent. Not sure about the others, right side is a weakness and POC is very hit and miss. Songo'o has made a difference but I prefer a back 4 to back 3 or 5

 

They need to take some responsibility for their own actions if reading something on a forum is blamed for their own reckless spending.

my post can quite happily be deleted btw. Fire away mods.

 

I rest my case.
