And............. So any news on Jamie Shackleton's Injury?

See post 330 in this thread, which I posted on Wednesday afternoon.

CW confirmed this in his interview last night (Friday evening).

Exactly.

At that stage we were about to lose our football club. We didn't care about losing a game of football anymore. We had just about lost our football club. And strangely enough the only set of supporters that said anything against our protests won because of our protesting. We didn't care about losing the game because of our protests. Saving our football club from them leeches was the only important thing at the time.

How long have you been unhappy with your ower? Ours lasted 20 years. Try putting yourself in our position.

Funny how it only happened when we were attacking but you managed to hold off when you were

So you scored when we were attacking?

 

[Frank the tank]

So you scored when we were attacking?

You only threw tennis balls on the pitch when we were on top and going forward
I don't know if you had an infinite supply of tennis balls but I'm supposing you ran out by the time we scored the 90 th minute winner

As I said before I don't mind you having your own version. That's your perogative. But you scored because of our demonstrations. We didn't care at that stage. Saving our football club was the most important agenda.

If we used it to get an advantage why were SUFC the only set of supporters that said anything against us? Most of the time our opponents supporters joined in with us.

Bullshit

Looks likely that he'll be our first choice specialist right back this season in terms of attacking output.

Gilchrist and Seriki to cover. One's a centre half the other is a kid who's never done much on his loans

Do we know when he’s actually likely to be available?

Leeds fans thought he wasn’t reliable fitness wise and it’s proved the case thus far

Can’t help but feel after hoever and bogle - we must still be after someone with a more attacking profile. I reckon Gilchrist is just here for when we flog anel

 

[Pollingtonblade]

At least Tom Davies will have someone to knock around the treatment room with.

I suspect that Gilchrist will start at RB and if he does well he'll keep the shirt.

Do you know in all competitions over 142 games, he's only played 38 times at right back.. all the rest has been in midfield

Still think hes miles better in midfield for us than as a defender and not going to be dissuaded on that.

Ok so who do you suspect will be playing right back?

Saw him at York in friendly yes I know only York but he had more energy in that 45 mins than most of last seasons squad had all season. Definitely a midfielder that wanted that ball all the half.

He will definitely in midfield if/when Souza goes and if he's fit

yes me anall booker very excited by this signing really rate him

 

[Slim Man]

What was his remit today? Give the ball back to the opposition every time you have it by running into them?

What a load of bollocks, he added pace, tenacity and a good overlapping along with an excellent nutmeg. He looks as though he could be a good addition to the squad and looks capable of filling in several positions.

He did nothing of note. He kept running into the opposition.

McCallum on the other hand really impressed me.

 

[ben1987]

It’s his first game after a lay off, give him chance

You definitely not getting them mixed up, Slim?!

Nah I liked McCallum, he was all over like dog shit

Time to change your avatar Slim?

 

[Keen Blade]

Performed ok but seems even smaller than O'Hare !
We have a strange combination of really big players & really small.
I hope we don't get bullied by some of the more physical sides.
That said , our little ones appear to have skill , pace & courage.

Never

 

[loyalblade95]

Looks to use the space well, wish he'd tried to square that ball towards the penalty spot rather than trying to put it through the keepers legs.

Best thing is with Shackleton is that he can cover in midfield as well. McCallum did have a few moments where he did give the ball away in dangerous situations, but he went to try and win it back whenever he did give the ball away.

Either way, Shackleton and McCallum did the job required of them when we needed them.

 

[North Shields Blade]

I thought Shackleton did well last night and was a bit unlucky to be substituted, just when he’d started having a bit of success attacking down the right. Just seems to have the right attitude, head-down and disciplined, no fuss. A good signing.

Played well.
Wasn’t unlucky to be substituted it’s part of the game
