Bristol rovers

And it probably cost them 10 points, plus Robinson leaving before he was pushed

Which of the 9 (i.e. as 2 out of 11 aren't) are "crap"?

 

Better to just name the two that aren't which is Reeves and Akpan(if we can get him fit, and confidence into him), but with J O'Brian's form only one will realistically get in the starting line up, the rest haven't proven anything other than been crap in their time here.

Also Charlton still ended in the playoffs, Clarke was out for the full season more or less and Marshall the first 3 months of the season and Holmes was sold in January so all out for far more time than what would cost them 10 points.

 

I’d drop Doyle and go ball up front and if we are gonna be direct aim the balls down the channels or into him for him to hold up and bring others in.

4-5-1 with Payne behind

 

What makes you think ball would be any better of a target man than Doyle?

 

Try Edin's words of 3 year plan to get us in the Championship...whilst currently being on the verge of League 2...that may have something to do with it.

 

Where's our upturn been then in order to give credit to them? 2018 been a complete downward spiral....a 0 - 0 draw against 18th in the table who have scored 9 goals but had 21 attempts on our goal.

 

Does anyone know what Hopkin or what ever his name is meant when he said we'd been working on a few things in training and it was starting to pay off ?.

 

From the limited minutes Ive seen he looks to have more about him in that sense.

 

Clean sheet? Only positive from Saturday really

 

Everyone has to pick up a cone at the end and put it away so they're getting away 10minutes earlier?

 

Wonder if it's Rossie or mr wippy.

 

@banbrotam - thanks for the war and peace style reply. Now read what you have written. You really do come across as a clown. That is all.

 

I apologise. There is another club, with an injury list almost as bad as ours and amazingly they are suffering because of it. Jeez!! Isn't that amazing

Sounds like they also have some fans as fickle as some of ours as well!!

But unless I agree with you you'd say this. The fact you disrespect a poster who at least bothers to reply, says more about you than me

I've no interest in your approval or anyone elses here, so insult as much as you want. It kind of weakens your argument

I'm a Bantam fan, who's been watching my team for nearly 40 years. I refuse to allow the shrill and negative minority to take the club down the highly unsuccessful Blackpool, Northampton etc route, i.e. where they can find no good in anything or at least without putting some negative caveat in

 

The second half. It was more a more coherent half, since probably the Shrewsbury home match last season

And yes 2018 has been terrible, we've lost the most of any football league club

 

I don’t think it is within your remit to take anyone down. The last time I looked we are free to protest in this country over any issue. Being a supporter for 40 years also does not qualify you to chastise others who have a different view to yours. I know it’s a shock, but......

 

Of course it does. But not because of how long I've supported us but because this forum is supposed to be a lively debate, not a meeting of the church elders.

You're amazingly sensitive for someone who has been very critical of Rahic. Or am I assume that's allowed? But criticising these fans, who some of us believe are going OTT and taking us down a path that serves no purpose other than to vent, is apparently wrong?

Did you going to condemn those who constantly criticised Park (admittedly it was more on C&B) which seriously bordered on bullying? I ask since clearly your "remit" is to make sure no-one is chastising another post

 

I don’t have a remit, I just join in. A healthy debate challenges what is being debated rather than the person taking part. ‘Shrill and Negative minority’ That would be your view and completely unsubstantiated by any evidence whatsoever. Yes I have been critical of Rahic running of our football club, not him as a person. Nearly all your posts are highly critical of ppl who do not share the same view as you. The way you present your arguments is high handed and holier than thou, just my view of course.

 

As I've already said, I can only see two becoming first team regulars out of our injury list, sure the bench will be stronger and we can only hope this will help us turn things around, however optimistic that maybe.

I don't know Plymouth's team and how many of there first 11 are injured, maybe all 10, or maybe just a couple and they're just crap. I don't know or care, another team being crap isn't justification for accepting our crap. And it doesn't make their fans fickle who criticise when they see their club is in trouble.

I hope we can look back at the end of the season as this been just a poor spell in another wise decent season, if that's the case I won't regret criticising in the here and now however, as it's very much warranted.

 

Even a fit Wright and Akpon will have to show us something they haven't as yet to get a start before either of the O'Brien brothers, I'd make Jim the Captain the way he goes about his business, very able lad to me a typical David Hopkin signing .
