    Wasn’t at the game tonight, but YP said that only three of our players warrant consideration for a starting place on Saturday. Scannell, wood and Devine all played well apparently?

    Palmer looked very good against Cambridge.

    How can you state my logic is laughable when you slate Palmer !. Listen I give Gibson credit for his performances so far but I don’t believe he’ll be good enough over time

    As for PO, he stood out a mile tonight, only defender I’ve seen so far this season able to play a ball into midfield, won all his headers and is just better than anything else we’ve got at the back

    No. Do you watch the game or just sit in the toilet cubicle for 90 mins?

    Was economical in possession and used the ball well.

    Not commenting on how he played at Grimsby or tonight as went to neither.

    Disagree. Certainly wasn’t the worst player, but “looked very good” is stretching it just a tad

    He didn't say he had a poor game, he said he was average.

    Do you not think the 2 highlighted points are linked? If Doyle is played up front on his own (in a role that Bowyer has even stated publicly that he struggles to do), who did you think Scannell was going to supply? He can’t provide an end product if we only have 1 player in the box, being marked by 2 centre backs.

    It was a normal Devine performance, a lot of effort but can't actually remember him being on the pitch.

    Check out our stats for that game. We had one of the highest possession and pass counts that weekend - Palmer was responsible for plenty of those passes.

    Yes, Cambridge had a man sent off second half but the bare facts are the bare facts. We had plenty of the ball and Palmer knocked it about well in the middle.

    Our final ball that day, well.....that's another matter.

    I assume It’s a shop window situation but he is a positive embarrassment. If it carries on I feel sure fans will not put up with it for long without some strident reaction.

    It shows how far we've regressed that he's come from out of the cold and is now being considered for a starting spot.

    I thought he was being re-signed on the cheap as backup, along with Anderson, so it is alarming we're now depending on these lads as first teamers, albeit in a lower league.

    7.6 for 4-0 ? Which bookmaker are you using. I'll lay your bets for you if are taking them sort of odds. That should have been 20+/1

    Rotation, gearing up towards the JPT.

    Don’t forget the player ruling in that competition.

    Idiocy in saying that we need to bring new players into the squad? Have you read the other posts I've made on this thread or jumped onto your high horse as usual? Sad state of affairs that when a notification pops up 1/5 times it is you contributing nothing. I've also said that it hasn't been good enough and we need to improve but ignore that if you want.

    Very poor defending. After the first goal the defender just cowers away after they score. As for OConner, babber wooooOOOOO
