OST - I kind of saw this coming if Collins and Williams didn't start finding the back of the net and getting goals to their name.

I don't honestly give a flying fuck if they don't score all season if we keep winning games, they keep playing well, working their bollocks off and we're getting the goals from the midfield.

Only thing I worry about though is spackers that like getting on there backs and a lack of goals denting their confidence.

From the other side of the coin, I did say to my dad on the way home yesterday, if Connell had missed chances like Williams had, rightly or wrongly he would have dropped him.  I hope we're not going to see that sort of thing happen with Williams, but for some reason I think there was a bit more than met the eye with the Connell situation.

In terms of the support, I sit in the Arkells and the drums have completely spoilt the atmosphere in the last 2 games.  Even when the Town End and DRS have been singing the incessant banging has overshadowed it.  If a drum is going to become the norm for away support, the club seriously needs to think about banning them.

My view is that connell was off loaded because he's not good enough for league one. Pure and simple.

Remind me again why everybody should be allowed an opinion!

Because you should never stop people from having the opportunity to make a complete idiot of themselves...

At least we can look forward to some decent away support this year, without drums....Pompey especially should provide a good atmosphere....but then there is the bell...

This. Even sitting in the Town End with all the singing the bloody drums can still be heard. Looking forward to being an away fan next weekend just to not have to hear a drum!

Agreed. Williams brings so much more to the table.

I agree. Still think he was harshly treated last year mind.

I think they have a drum, certainly from the videos I've seen.

Spot on.

Williams does put in more of a shift and has bags of pace to go with it.

I think we should start retaliating with obscure instruments. If your entire section of the TE could pitch up with Ukeleles, that would entertain me significantly.

I did notice yesterday that musical instruments are banned, unless you write to the club in advance for permission.

They should just ban them...end of.

The threat of vuvuzelas at the corresponding away fixture should do it.

Crawley and Franchise: two of the most plastic 'clubs' in existence.  The drumming should come as no surprise really.
