Title: Mooney?
Post by: The Grim Reaper on Saturday, March 11, 2006, 17:26:57
We can't seem to buy a goal at the moment. How many clear cut chances do we have to miss? Forget about Mooney leaving us for the Pox, I'd love to see him back in a red shirt for us and I bet he would too. Whatever league we are in next season he would do a job for us.

Thoughts anyone?

If Wycombe come up then he's not going to come here!.

I might be wrong but I think he is on a one year contract with Wycombe. Guess it depends on what he if offered at end of season.

If we couldnt afford to keep him the other year we certainly wouldnt be able to afford his wages now.

I think the loss of Mooney is ultimately what has cost us our lofty status in League One.  He was an experienced head who was critically a talker and gave everyone a lift with just his sheer presence.  However, now after deserting us and probably being well over the hill by now, no way on God's green Earth would I want to see him back here.

In my experience mooning doesn't lead to scoring  :|

Thats a bald statement.

I'd have him back tbh.

It was a stupid decision but he's already realised what a mistake joining Oxford was. I don't think he'll leave Wycombe anyway.

only reason why he left was because king didn't want him. Mooney said so, he wanted to stay. Shame he went to oxford. I think he still regrets leaving swindon. we've never replaced mooney, and we still haven't replaced parkin

That is simply not true Johno. We couldn't afford his wage demands

We couldn't afford Mooney at all, and we now have Peacock and Curo.

Okay neither of them are the next Sam Parkin but you can't expect that

Peacock and Cureton are big names really for league one. They must be on quite decent wages. Neither though have lived up so far, they have played well but not scoring.

cureton's scored 5 in 12 which isn't a terrible record given the service he's been getting.

After making a boo-boo re.:  Mooney you should have kept quiet Johno....   :evil:

That's a bit unfair on Peacock and Curo.  Since his return from Col U I think Cureton has played very well and justified his signing.  Okay, he needed to be doing it all season-long but even Parkin was afforded rough patches in his career here.

Peacock is still in his early days here and the service he has received has been appalling.  He's been playing well and his hold-up play has been fantastic - better in my opinion than Fallon.  I don't think our problems have anything to do with our front men.

I didn't say they have played badly, i think they both have played very well...but they need to start scoring more if we are going to get out of this. Peacock has only got 1.

Yesterday we got balls in the box, to curo and peacock, but they were scared to shoot. everyone was.

To conclude all im saying is that they need to start scoring, not just play well. They have had chances. In a team near the bottom of the league your not going to get loads of great open chances so anything they have to take. Its hard i know but they have to.

NMH, i couldn't see them staying if we went down. I hope they would, they would shoot us straight back up i hope.
