CONFIRMED James Hanson leaves the club

[sitwell]

Yes

Sharp was POTM cos of Hanson !!

FFS.

UTB

Partly yes ,have you seen Billy with Clarke ? its a team game ,we cant stop scoring with 11 we have of which Hanson is a part ,why is that so difficult for some of you to comprehend ? have you watched us over the past 5 seasons.
have FFS back

 

[Woodwardfan]

Think you will find over 20 people already agree with my view ,go and have a look.

Sitwell , you know full well that you know loads of pals on here, you work very hard at your network and good luck to you, but don't pretend that agreement from cronies means you are right, come on.

Tell me if I'm wrong, this is an impression I get. Loads of familiar names in there aren't there?

 

[Lane Ender]

Lafferty and freeman have also been criticised for their lack of quality when it comes to crossing too .

If our final ball had the quality as the rest of our game we'd be twenty points clear with a record goals tally

I don't rate Hanson. I don't think he suites our style. I don't think he links well with out top scorer in the division/ country. I have gone to great lengths to explain why.

That's my opinion, nothing more. Wilder picks the side, not me. He picks Hanson. He also (consistently) hooks him off.

I am assuming you, and others, can count themselves as amongst the many that clap and cheer when his headers go straight to an opponent ?

Or have I got that wrong too ??

No offence intended.

[coolhandluke]

Funny !

UTB

Im being serious .

Ask yourself why you think Wilder signed him ? What was he hoping Hanson would bring to the team ?

Did he think Hanson was a good footballer ala Fleck ? Did he think he'd get the goals ala Sharp or did he think he'd open up defences with intricate passing and pace ala Duffy or Carruthers ?

Or did he see what most others see ..... that he's a lump that makes the oppositions defence a mess , creates chaos in their back line , drags defenders to him allowing the likes of Sharp , Fleck , Carruthers , Duffy etc to exploit . A player who will also score the odd goal , provide a decent outlet and help out in defence ?

If you think Hanson was signed as a prolific marksman or a really good footballer you are missing the point .

I agree , and Sharp and Hanson would have scored far more than they have now .

 

[Lane Ender]

When he came on at Swindon he was the main reason we stole the points.
The game was slipping away great attitude chased lost causes put his body on the line.
Not sure whether we'll take him to the championship but he's an handful at this level.

Not sure if serious ,maybe one of these 'cronies' can shed some light. None of the lads I go to matches with contribute on here ,they are members but just nosey in.

The 'final ball' is almost as important as the strike/goal. Players who can play a 'final effective ball' are few and far between at our level, in fact any level.

In our squad Fleck, Duffy and Reed are the best IMO.

See above please.

WWF , i dont know the fucker and i certainly dont associate with this individual ...... i only associate with winners of last man standing .

Got to go ..... Pinchys here .

 

[YorkBlade]

He's an average league one low scoring aerial presence and nothing more. Bad signing, not needed now and certainly not required next season.

Just shows, I thought you daily Shoutboxers are all mates. Forum footballers too.

My mistake then.

Far, far more than that agreed with all the pro-Adkins arguments being made by many last season, including your good self up to a point. Just goes to show the majority know sweet fuck all at times.

 

[Jehovah]

He's doing exactly what I imagine or manager wanted and expected him to do when he signed him.

Its a good job Wilder knows what hes doing then

I recall Coutts and Freeman being made surplus to requirements at the start of the season?

Even the best managers get the occasional thing wrong.

 

[yorkshirecoast]

After a couple of decent early games, Hanson has been a bit disappointing. Not dominated in the air as I hoped he would and rarely looks like scoring.

Lavery on the other hand has improved and looks a good prospect. Quick, good control and runs at defenders.

 

[Fanny magnet]

What do lavery ,Clarke ,Sharp and done have in common ?


They were all here when the manager lost his rag about our wasteful strikers missing too many chances and signed Hanson

 

[SUFCinks]

I don't care he doesn't score. Not, in the main, what he is supposed to do.

What he IS supposed to do is get the ball to stick, and bring his teammates in to the game. Being honest, this rarely happens. Possession turnover when he is involved in play is high. This is not good enough. His ability in the air, which I originally believed was his biggest strength, is also no where near good enough for a man his size. Jumps FAR too early. Needs to work on this.

And I tire of listening to the numptys who clap and cheer every time he wins a header that goes straight to an opponent !!

Useful plan B option from off the bench for me.

UTB

My thoughts exactly.

 

[ucandomagic]

I wouldn't be so sure on that.

Done has been dropped for what will mostly be poor overall goal input.

Clarke has not shown he is any where near good enough for this side. Hanson. IMHO and only that, likewise. Neither match up well with Sharp. Something HAS to give as we won't be steamrollering teams next season.

A quality striker (£1m +) will be crucial. Neither Hanson or Clarke tick this particular box and have been recruited on the cheap for L1.

UTB

Lee Gregory will be leading the line next year.

[Dellas Cowboys]

something's wrong with this Done thread but I can't quite figure it out

 

[Fulwood Blade]

Its a good job Wilder knows what hes doing then

Wilson and Hussey? Done as Left sided midfield, Duffy as right sided midfield Clark and Billy up top

Fortunately after Southend at home, CW had heart to heart, re-thought things, change to a 3-5-2 (or 3-4-1-2 if you like), brought back Coutts/Freeman, added 2 or 3 decent signings and yes, he proved to then know what he was doing.

[Fulwood Blade]

Sitters, you seem to be quite desperate have have agreement on this with others. That isn't a problem to me, but I am so glad you have got 20 others - have as much of a love in as you want - seem to remember a similar thing with posters on EEL, until the majority realised his limitations too.

Hanson has limitations to some of us - some of us just want better - this isn't a crime punishable by death by 20 S24SU posters.

[coolhandluke]

The same goes for Clarke and Hussey and Wilson ....... but does all of that make Wilder a crap manager ? Does that mean that Wilder doesnt know what hes doing in the transfer market ? No , and you and me know it doesnt .

Good managers also gradually evolve and improve the team as they go . Done for example , did a job and helped get us as a team ticking , but better options were out there . Done makes way for Hanson . Hanson does a job but and helps get us promoted but better options will be out there ....... and on it goes . Does this mean that Wilder doesnt know what hes doing ? Does this mean that Wilder hasnt a clue exactly what it is that hes trying to create ? No , and you and me know it doesnt .

Sadly , many on here , ill not name names , unintentionally imply all of the above DOES make Wilder crap .

We dont though , as we recognise a work in progress . We can also distinguish between a poor 90 minutes for individual players and whether or not they are actually any good . Not all on here can though .

 

[LoughboroBlade]

A mention for Clarke. Quality player who has not got going for us as yet. Easily has the ability to play in the Championship next season. Skill, guile, strength and ego all in one, plus a need to be loved I sense.

For me Hanson's doing everything I'd hoped Clarke would do, but which he absolutely failed to do. Hanson and Sharp also seem to have a decent enough understanding when I've seen them, whereas when paired with Sharp both he and Clarke have looked poor. I think rather than liking Clarke, Wilder likes having a bigger striker on the pitch. Now that we have Hanson I think it's inevitable Clarke will be out the door this summer.

 

[Maidenhead]

Well there we have it. The logical conclusion is to play Hanson & Lavery up front now that Billy can't score for toffee. Whilst we are at it we can promote Basham to captain in Billy's absence.....

Many a true word spoken in jest.

Strangely this is not as off the wall as it first sounds.

It's great have options.

Hanson IN !!!

Who has even got remotely close to implying Wilder is a bad manager? Absolutely nobody. My point is that even the best managers, and good managers like Wilder get things wrong. It appears you agree as per your first paragraph.

What's the problem like?

Hope that was JUST a rumour.

 

[Maidenhead]

That's a good point, Duffys delivery in particular yesterday wasn't the best.

Just watch that first goal again
