    But weve seen, the level of performance players have with other clubs at this level seems to have little to no bearing on what Bowyer gets out of them. On that basis alone, I'm not even slightly arsed about Devitt coming back. Donaldson is probably a bigger miss for the aimless long ball stuff Bowyer plays.

    You're making it up, we haven't "scored freely" at any point this season.

    I think the term ‘free scoring’ usually applies to a team that scores 3 or more goals in a match. Two goals undoubtedly is ‘good’, but you cannot really use the term ‘free scoring’ to dress up wins where we have scored a couple of goals. Decent yes, free scoring no!

    Only Bowyer could manage a promotion chasing side and have their confidence at rock bottom. Absolutely baffling. I've done Colchester before and not going tomorrow with what GB will give us for our efforts.

    Not too upset about Vaughan being banned. I’ve been massively underwhelmed by him this season.

    I would like to see 4231 with

    OD/LM (not sure if OD is fit)
    Mellor AOC BRE Wood
    Reeves Cooke
    Connelly McCartan Ismail (Taylor if not fit)
    Doyle

    5 at the back tonight. Doyle isolated up top on his own.

    “Injuries and suspensions costing us”
    “They have a lot of pace and we struggled with it”
    “They are on a good unbeaten run” etc etc

    If we drop out of and lose contact with the teams in the play offs then I would expect Rupp and Rhodes to take some action. Until that happens I believe GB is producing what his remit is - a team who will get promoted. Whether I think that the manner in which they play is pleasing to the eye and entertaining is an entirely different matter.

    Are you for real?

    - Consistent place in the top 6 all season
    - Second best defence in the league
    - Best home form in the league
    - Challenging for automatic promotion at the first time of asking following our worst season in recent history

    Dynamo couldn’t have magic’ed up a trick for the shower of sh*te of a squad and situation we were in at the end of last season, so think it’s harsh to hold Bowyer accountable for that. Damage was done long before he came in

    Absolutely I would, I cannot watch another season of this garbage. It's the same situation that Sam Allardyce finds himself in continuously - brought in to keep sides up then disposed of because fans won't tolerate his football long term. Bowyer isn't the manager for us long term. If he takes us up then he's done his job but he won't take us further.

    Possibly as good a 4-4-2 we could put out with available players, descent cover on the bench.
