McBurnie out with a thigh strain, no mention why Sharp is missing that I’ve seen. (Obviously an injury but odd to mention McB and not Bill)

Probably because Sharp wasn't expected to play and i will be surprised if he is in the squad on Tuesday. I will be concerned if he doesnt at least make the bench next Saturday as the injury could be more serious erios than they are teliing us

 

[metalblade]

Hope I'm wrong but I don't see many goals in that team.

 

[bladesmanluke]

Sharp

 

[robbiez666]

To be fair, Mcburnie probably wouldnt offer anything Jebbo or Osula cant, apart from hes experienced at not scoring.

cute little socks?

 

[Tony Currie]

Much stronger line up (apart from Billy) than before we limped into the international break. Looks like Berge in forward position.

He's Croatian
He's not in our starting formation
When he's on we'll give a standing ovation
Uremovic

Lewis Baker, probably their key playmaker is out injured.

The poor decision in January to not bring in another striker was always going to cost us.

Happy memories of my last visit here!

I don't think you are wrong

Fuck, I knew there was something!

Another farewell to Jags today!

To be fair, we had a load of strikers, unfortunately we didnt have the crystal ball.
We need know where we will be next season before we commit, we dont want to waste anymore money on flash in the pan players, we need to build, and with the strikers we have on the books at present, its looking like a total overhaul is probably closer to what's required.

You do know we had McGoldrick, McBurnie, Brewster and Sharp avaiable at the time. Why did we need another striker ? How could we predict all 4 would be injured at the same time ?

True, it's just terribly unlucky

Technically we also has Moose and Burke available too, and I know we said "Strikers", but, apparently Burke is classed as one...........

robbiez666 asked what's wrong with him NOW, not what he's been suffering from for the past 2 years.

It wasn't me! I know he has the clap

 

[bonobo]

It's incredible given the number of strikers we had at the start of the season. Even if they were still with us, it seems Burke and Mousset would be injured as well....I do wonder without Sharp,.that we might need two up top, even if it means sacrificing Berge. But let's see....

And the one(s) who went out on loan

Norwood giving the ball away twice in two minutes

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

To say we need the 3PTS and stoke are on the beach , you wouldn't be able to tell which team is which from the first 30 mins


If Norwood could run , tackle, not give the ball away every other pass and have an extra yard of pace he would be a great player

We have been waiting for our strikers to come good for over 2 years .How much longer do we wait? Apart from Billy we have had no one we can rely on to score . Leaving it as it is we will be waiting another 2 years.

Like watching last season except they didn't score

 

[Millhousesblade1889]

We’re miles off a premiership team.
