We aren't scoring enough goals are we.

Whilst you can't knock Peacock for his effort, he isn't an out and out goalscorer.

I still don't understand why Evans isn't starting ? It's madness.

I never want to go there again, hell of a long way and a shit ground!

Agree about the ground. Cant believe they havnt got any cover for their home spectators. Unbelievably shit ground. Couldnt believe how shit it was. Pure shit. Worse than Barnet!

Nice Town though.

and with no money or extra wages available we wont get in another striker so we have to make do with what we've got Peacock, Roberts, Fola, Brownlie, Jutkiewicz and even Caton....these players should score goals...

Evans wasnt playing because he obviously isnt 100% fit or is carrying a knock

Yesterday it really sunk in how fucking awful we are...how many teams have seen their team play away to Manchester United in the league and away to Accrington Stanley for fuck sake.

My main problem with yesterday was the players clearly didnt want it enough.

Fit and ready. Wise still thinks he needs a rest.

maybe he does...but surely its better to rest him when we're winning games and playing well

I'd have Evans with Pook in the middle. Bring back Shakes on the right to replace Brownlie. Keep Monkhouse on the left and hope he gets more quality delivery in to the strikers.

Post by: DV on Sunday, October 8, 2006, 12:40:28
possibly, Id be tempted to stick Wise in the middle if he is fit and ready, but Pook has his place on merit....is Fola worth a go on the right wing...bit of pace, bit of skill....decent cross

All last year people moaned about players out of position and the only topics of discussion on here are whether we should stick Brownlie, Fola or Roberts on the wings.

These guys are strikers and are there to score goals. Everybody thought Roberts was a bit crap at City....he was played on the wing every week. Everybody is moaning about Brownlie....he has been playing on the wing.

Next thing you know people will want Pecock and Jutzkeweicz up front, and Roberts and Fola on the wings - then will cpmplain our stirkers are too slow  :roll:

Jutkiewicz is no slouch....

.....and Shakes final ball isnt good enough, thats why I dont want him on the wings.

I might sound like a broken r3cord on this one....but HOLGATE for the right wing - he's got what the others haven't - enough skill and flair to beat get quality into the box unlike Shakes and Brownlie, not as much pace as Shakes, but still, enough to beat most full backs about - he's played once this season and played really bloody well - so what do we do?! send him to newport!

Post by: DV on Sunday, October 8, 2006, 17:00:47
are you his dad?

has he ever played right wing before? he's a right winger on the FM games...

Dont think I've seen him play right wing, but I've seen his brother play right wing before. Not that, that has anything to do with anything?!

Yes he is a slouch, that's not a dig but the boy clearly has no pace. Similarly, in both their brief spells in a first team shirt I'm more excited about what Ashan can offer us. He's more different from our strikers than Lukas, who to me looks just like a Peacock or a Brownlie.

I have never said it once Tails.

It only has just started to hit me since these four 1-1 draws.

We need a Tommy Mooney type player up front with Peacock.

Still, I think everyone knows that our main area of concern is our goalscoring, I know most people have thought that since the Rochdale game.... Just a bit boring reading another thread stating the obvious

Well it's only just started to hit me. (probally cos i am Peacock and Robbo's biggest fan)

On a positive note, the fans were once again fantastic at Accy and the pre match banter in the Crown was great.

for starters you know me so I am obviously not Jutkiewicz's dad.... :roll:

As for the rest of the post...total rubbish....

Jutkiewicz had hardly played, infact I expect you have hardly seem him play so how do you know he is another Peacock or Brownlie....how do you even know what a Brownlie is...we've hardly played him up front!

the lad has no fear and isnt afraid of hard work, he showed that last season and in the reserves time and time again he has shown he knows where the back of the net is...

Well .. Evans i think isnt well (bit of a cold) .. but Id expect him to start the next one on Saturday - as for strikers I did state that Peacock and Roberts wouldnt even score 10 between them ... I hope Im wrong.

PERSONALLY .. id start with Fola, the Cock and Brownlie in a front 3 on Saturday ... and have a midfield 3 of Weston, Evans and the Rock (Pook) ..


Title: Well
Post by: RobertT on Monday, October 9, 2006, 15:21:55
They've got 6 between them so far and Brownlie and Fola have 3 on top.  Not setting the world alight, but Peacock should probably have 6 now!

That has no width whatsoever.

How can you not play Monkhouse??? He's the best left sided midfielder we have.

I don't why you love Pook so much? He's shit.

Agree with the Monkhouse part. In fact, he's probably the most creative player we've got.

Pook is shit but he's been one of the better players recently.

And also Ralph has a point about not conceding, we've only conceded 2 goals once this season (not counting the cup game).

Good god no, we need a Fola or a fit, interested Roberts otherwise your strike force would have less pace than me.
