What's the status on these?

Vincent: Available next Saturday?

Aljofree: Out for the season (never again in a Town shirt?).

HRK: Hamstring, two weeks minimum?

Craig Easton: Supposed to be on his way back, doesn't sound good that he isn't.

Barry Corr: Out for the season, won't be back?

JPM: ??

Kanyuka: ??

Morrison:  Attempted murder by Yeovil, two weeks minimum?

Lea Peacock: Out for the season, won't be back?

I have seen very little mention of Mcgovern and Kanyuka anywhere regarding how long there likely to be out for.  Easton I know they say is just about ready but short of match fitness.

Why was Marshall not on the bench yesterday? is he injued as well?

Vincent I think should be back for Saturday.  Corr, Aljofree and Peacock definitely out for season.

Guess we wont know more on Morrison or Kanu until tests on the injuries on Monday, just hope there not out for long as think we will need both if we are going to stay up.

Where is Chris Allen?

He should be comming on for Nalis if we are chasing a game, not Pook???

I'd go as far as to say if we're chasing a game we should bring on a striker, not a midfielder.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm

Looks like super mega meat feasts all round boy's !

Can't see any ketchup there. Shouldn't that be 'Soon to be ex Town players' ?

One can only hope Nev .............


One can only hope

Don't bloody start Chalkie's Shorts off again Nev...

pook is better just.but neither are good enough.get rid of both

Im telling you, if we give up on Allen then that leaves Fittons youth policy in absolute tatters, because he was head and shoulders above the rest of that team, and they got to the FA Youth Cup quarter finals. In my opinion.

Blimey, they must have been short.

I might be getting my years mixed up because I think we did well in the FA Youth Cup in back to back seasons but the cup run I remember. Lukas Jutkiewicz was the best thing on display at the time.

True. But he already had a proper contract.

Allen could have been much more rounded player by now in my opinion. The youth players we produce are quite rough around the edges, we need better coaching. Otherwise Fitton is headed for another failure in the objectives he set out when they took over.

allen is lightweight and small for those reasons i think he wont make it long term here.he isn't gifted enough for his deficiencies to be outweighed by talent.shame as i want lads to come through, but it's what i think anyway.
they are either good enough or they aint.chelsea pick up the best players from our youth set up

If he can get the same confidence in the first team he had for the youths then he will make it.

Another thing about Jutkiewicz, Joyce, Morrison and Tozer is that none of them are from our own system, they were signed or released from other clubs at quite a late stage.

Fitton said he wanted young local players in the team.

cant say i was that impressed by Lukas during the Youth Cup he always seemed he felt he was too good to play in it and was lazy, Luke Hopper and Mus Carayol were the 2 that impesssed me most at the time

I'm not sure about Allen. He is a lightweight at the moment but that can be sorted out by beefing him up a bit, not sure that he is too small though. Marshall was a lightweight when he joined and he has improved in that regard so they should be able to do the same with Allen. I'm guessing Wilson must have seen something he likes to have picked him a few times.

I can't see anyone else wanting Allen, so maybe give him another year and see how he develops. I can't imagine he's getting paid that much so it won't be much of a financial outlay. Better to take a chance on him than Nalis.

give him some steroid juice - that'll sort him out - or a year serious weight training!

we have all been saying since chrissy was in the youth team he needs to beef up, he is now coming to the end of his 2 year pro contract, its obvious his lack of strength is his weakness, why hasnt he already done it??

metabolism i'd guess.he probably wont ever get big,some people never beef up.

As that shortarse that plays for Colchester, (perkins?) showed, if you are good enough you are big enough.

No ones said it yet so I will.




Diego Maradona.

You would think so Deev-but DW obviously has little or no faith in Raszak

We are screwed if Paynter or Cox get injured.

He must have more faith in him than Sturrock though, surely?

Which begs the question why send our only other striker out on loan to Torquay

Its a fucking mystery

Well he signed the fucker!

That's often the case that lack of strength = weakness

Messi is hardly a giant either.

Is he available for a loan until the end of the season?  Could be a better option from the bench than Marshall.

'Could be a better option from the bench than Marshall'. I like how you used the world could!!

I use lots of words.  I'm really rather clever.
