Looking forward to this one. Hoping to see some evidence of new attacking patterns, as Wilder has alluded to the time needed to get ideas embedded.

He love old Tom doesn't he, mentioned him twice.

Wilder's footwear. Can't work out if its outstanding or tragic.

Think Wilder has compartments in his trainers, they allow him to carry additional bottles of glug.

 

[Flumps]

I am not big on McBurnie and would good to see if Osula can carry some momentum from Gillingham. But, Wet Ham are one of the few teams who will be prepared to sit deep against us for periods and will hammer us from set pieces, so I think this is game McBurnie has to play.

I have the same feelings towards him as I do Brewster and even Mousset. I know there's a player there but you get the feeling sometimes McB turns up and plays like he has to earn his number in the squad and he makes a real impact. Sometimes he seems to turn up amazed that the club had the bare faced cheek to ask him to earn his literal thousands.

I'd imagine there's a particular reason he's not in the squad today but I do feel he's a bit of a gamble sometimes.

[FriethBlade]

Hope it was Hamers training gear billowing but he looked well overweight to me when warming up

Sake get trippier for 1 point instead if he doesn't come on

 

[The Crab]

Anel not a great start

 

[Jon B]

Clinton Morrison on Radio 5 commentary is surprised to find Robbo has a long throw.

As punditry goes that really is pathetic.

 

[fifty shades of blade]
