    Shocking miss? I remember it being a very good save.

    You clearly didn't watch the L666.'s game last night.

    Shocking signing more like
    Yes the keeper did get a fingernail on it
    Would it have gone without is another debate

    It was a good save but he probably should have scored but he doesn’t get any credit for winning the ball starting the move and getting up the field to get the shot in.
    It was tactics that lost us that game not Clarke

    Even for a midfield link man
    That is a very very poor return

    Yes I did. They were given a game but it does mean to say they were slowing it down. In fact they took the captain on to bring on quicker legs later on.

    BILLY CLARKE IS A CARAVAN - Not one of you have explained what he offers us now!

    To be more precise it’s more about a style of play in the AMC position as there are a number of different terms that refer to the link player between ten midfield and attackers. A Number 10 specifically is a Advanced playmaker

    Some would say the goalkeeper made a superb finger tip save. Mainly Millwall fans but when you see it in slo mo it was the thinnest of touches that diverted the ball around the post.
    Maybe he should have put his laces through it instead?
    Anyway we should have easily won that game had we been more adventurous. Instead we were too scared of their front 2 and that ultimately cost us.

    That the best we can find?

    On a side note when McCall was hired it was you that was compaining about McCall acting like one of the lads and he now signs one of the lads but you ok with it?

    You know this is a poor signing...Just tell it how it really is! McCall done his mate a favour. End of!

    The signing is as back as Chris Taylor.

    In the time he was at Grimsby he did well and in their local paper today he planned to use him in a front three I reckon a front three of Novak/Donaldson Vaughan and Clarke would be decent at this level

    What I can’t abide is people on Twitter saying what a poor signing he is and tagging him in it. : unamused:

    Keeping Vaughan is key for me now. If McCall uses him better than Bowyer ever did, he should be aiming for 20 goals for us

    What the slowest front 3 in the division?

    It's Grimsby mate..he did ok for Grimsby. If we resigned Hanson would you be happy with that?

    I actually meant he replaces squad members like Akpan and Anderson not in a positional sense .
